The afternoon’s card wound up with a mixed race, Ned Reading on a bioycle dgainst @ team of horses driven by Lee Allison, dis- tanco five miles. The horses won handily iz 12:50. The arrangements made for the accommo- dation of the press were the worst ever seen on u race course, In fact, there were ab- solutely none, and it was all the reporters could do to get permission to remain in the reserved department of the grand stand. There were no tables to write upon, no chairs and no space for them but what they saw proper to take possession of among the spectators. They were located fully seventy- five yards from the judges' stand, and had no means whatsoever of communicating with these officials and getting the little details necessary to a report of the several events.

Smith, chairman of the cup com- mittee, issued the following statement to the press this morning: “I have nothing to say In answer to Lord Dunraven's letter of September 13. My committee is out of town. Lord Dunraven has given his letter {0, the public and " our answer will come ater. “To strip this yachting question of all side issues and special but unimportant leadings by Lord Dunraven about condi- ions, old and new, that should not have revénted him from racing Valkyrle to the nish of the match, the glaring fact stands out that he did not do his duty to the Royal Yacht squadron, which made the challenge for him, to the' English people, nor to his supportérs or to himself, He prevented De- fender from showing her power and speed in the second and third races, thus giving the syndicate which built héer no oppor- tunity of displaying her superiority over the challenging vessel. “Lord Dunraven had the personal right to decline to resall the protested race of September 8 in u written o unwritten prop- osition made to him by Mr. Iselin and ap- proved by the cup committee, which he dld decline. ‘He had also the same personal right to start his yacht across the line on September 12 and ‘withdraw her from the race, which he did, leaving Defender to g0 over the course alene. 1 believe It is— to say the leastwa mistake in judgment, and tha the great majority of yachismen the world over will 8o decide. J. D. SMITH." The seat of operation of the principal pachtsmen of America and England has cen changed from this city to Newport. The cup and regatta committees are repre- sented there by Chester Griswold and (ass Canfield, Mr. Grinnel and Secretary Oddie. Lord Dunraven and H. Maitland Kersdy are also there, as are Messrs Vanderbilt and Morgan. Mr. C. Oliver Iselln s at New Rochelle, superintending the dismantling of Defender. START OF THE SIX DAY RACE. GIrly Get Away Hefore a Small at Bieyele Park. A fairly good sized crowd greeted the first appearance of the female riders in the great six-day race which opened at the bicycle park last night. The bieycle parade was very late In starting and the cars of the Sherman avenue line were blocked by the parade, which accounts in'a large meas- ure for the small attendance. The race it- self was on the whole good, being about % per cent fester than any race of this kind ever witnessed here. Miss Nelson proved herself to be quite a wonder. She has & sprint that would put to shame many of Omaha's racing men. After the third mile she began to make things warm, and soon had a on the rest of the girls, Miss Allen al%o comes In for her share of the praise. She sits a wheel gracefully, and will no doubt give Nelson a hard race for first place. Lillie Williams did not seem to be matericlly in it. She was, however, taken sick during the first hour and had ta leave the treck for & short rest, The girls are riding a hard race and making rowad tome good time.

DES MOINES, Sept. 16.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Early Sunday morning the dead body of Mrs. Lillle Hicks of Sandyville, an Found on the Warren county, Ia., was found on East Fourth street at an alley Intersection. Her brother-in-law, Abel Hicks, sald she died suddenly as they were walking along the street. Other circumstances point to the fact that she died while a criminal opera- tion was being committed at 3802 Court avenue, and that she was carried up the alley by Hicks and an alleged doctor named C. 0. Allen, said to be from Eagle Grove, who s said to have performed the opera- tion. The finding of her body, it is said, was a grandstand play to remove suspiclon from the guilty pair. The officers have not landed the doctor, and several other people wanted for complicity in the crime, and are very reticent about the jatter. Before the coroner's Jul holding an in- quest on the body Gertie Smith said: “Hicks, his sister-in-law and a_ doctor from Eagle Grove secured a room at our housa Satur- day night. The woman was in a delicate condition, and it appears that all had met in Des Mol by appointntent. It is said that Hicks telegraphed to Bagle Grove to have the doctor come and perform the operation. When they went into the room Hicks gave the doctor $20, and he then commenced the operation. Pretty soon he saw that she was golng to die, and Hicks saw it too. “ ‘My God, what are you doing?' he asked of the doctor. Then he told the doctor to give him back the money or he would call the police. The woman dled on the bed while she was _holding my hands, and I held the door open while they carricd her dead body out."” Mrs. Hicks was.a widow and had three children, two of whom are at the home of her late husband’s mother in Sandyville. The other lives with a brother of her husband there. Eph Jones, a brother of the dead woman, arrived this morning, and is stated to be in a frame of mind for sifting the mystery to the bottom.

Soon after his appointment the man chosen far the place telegraphed in the name of Ed T. Kearney, cashier of the Da- kota County bank, to the Sioux City bank, asking for $2,000. The money was for- warded by express and appropriated when It reached him by the agent, who decamped forthwith and has not since been scen, When the cheat was discovered the Sioux National sued the telegraph company for the $2,000, to which the latter replied that the loss was due to the express company’s agent.

DES MOINES, Sept. 16.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Judge Spurrier, in the district court this morning, knocked out the feature of one of the city ordinances prohibiting saloons from serving free lunches to their patrons.

BY A CENTURY Defeats Oxford-Cambridge at Cricket by an Bven Hundred Runs. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1.—The Univer- #ity of Pennsylvania, past and present, to- day won a most conspicuous victory over Oxford and Cambridge, past and present, in the first intercollegiate cricket match played in this country, winning by an even 100 runs. The match began on Friday last, the Englishmen going first to the bat, and fin- Ishing thefr innings with the large total of 284. Then Pennsylvania took the defense of the wickets, and under the speedy trundling of the foreign bowlers lost four wickets for thirty-eight runs before the stumps were drawn, and finished their innings for 138 the next day, being obliged to follow on. It was in this second essay at the bat that they retrleved their almost lost for- tunes, piling up the magnificent score of 307, glying them 161 more than the foreign- ers. ‘When the heavy hitting Englishmen went in to bat for their second Innings to- day interest was at a high pitch, although it ‘was felt that little short of 'a_miracle could let the Pennsylvanias win.

Nicholson of De- Heavy Transfer of South Dnkota ining Property Near Rapld City. RAPID CITY, §. D., Sept. 16.—(Special)— The Storm Hill group of gold mines, situ- ated twelve miles southwest of Rapid City, were sold yesterday to St. Louls parties for $10,000. This property was located a year ago, but enough work has been done to un- cover a large veln of free milling and con- centrating gold ore. A contract is let to sink 850 feet and work will be prosecuted by night and day shifts until it is completed. The new owners will erect a mill for treat- ing the output as soon as the mine s suf- ficiently developed. This sale creates more than usual interest here, as It practically opens up a new mining district. The placer bars of Rockerville .and Spring Creek, In the vicinity have produced heavily in’ the past and are still worked to some extent, but the numerous and apparently extensive quartz lodes have heretofore been neglected, In the early days this district was one of the most populous and thriving in the Hills, but at that time no thought was given to anything but placer mining. Now the sources from which the streams derived their gold are attracting attention, LYNCHERS MAKE A SECOND CALL.

Y., Sept. 16.—The hotels are crowded tonight and very nearly all of the delegates to the republican convention are here, but despite that fact not a condition has changed, and the ticket and platform as de- tailed by the Assoclated press yesterday are unchanged. The platform was finished this evening and the state committee looked over it tonight. It will not be changed in it salient points, and the only, discussion seems to be as to whether or not the question of Sunday liquor selling should be touched upon, The proposed members of the committee on platform and the leaders have agrecd that it {s best to Ignore the matter altogether, leaving it to the next legislature to dispose of without any recommendation, but, on the contrary, the members of the conventign from New York, Kings and Erie counties Insist vigorously that there shall be action on the question. The leaders have caretully planned, however, to avold all discussion of such fssues in the convention. All resolus tlons will be introduced under a rule refers ing all resolutions to the platform commits tee without debate, and when it is reportes the previous question is to be moved and al debate upon it closed. In this way the lead- ers believe all serlous breaches of harmony, will be avoided, Dr. Chauncey M. Depew was among the ar- rivals tonight and called on Mr. Platt. He believes the convention should endorse Gov= ernor Morton's administration, and recome mend his nomination for the presidency, This may be done, although there is nothing sete tled aboui the matter. The state commite tee met tonight and decided the roll of the convention as now made up should stand, nn.d nlo contesting delegates should be ade mitted, When the State Republican Editorial 10w clation met tonight It listened to Mr. D pew say some very sharp things about the in decisive qualities that seemed to prevall among leaders of the republican party. “Why,” sald Mr. Depew, “I have only been here a few hours and I have seen leads ers’ opinions change like straws in a heavy wind. The theory of the republican party should be clearly defined on this excise ques. tlon. It should not hesitate or shirk. It should come out squarely one way or the other, either for enforcement or against. If against it you will get the German vote; if for it you will get the church and the school votes, but If neither for nor agalnst it you will Qisgust the people, make them doubt your sincerity and lose their entire vote.” The republican editors adopted resolutions denouncing the Cleveland administration and applauding the republican administration of state affairs. 'APPEAL TO DEMOCRATIC VOTERS, Ben Cnble Tukes me with the Late Ilinois Convention, CHICAGO, Sept. 16.—The executive col mittee of the state democratic literary by reau, of which Ben T.

It is contonded that authgritative declarations of the bellef of the party on the currency or any national question can come alone from its representa- tives in the national convention." The committee sa “We each and all favor the use of silver money, but we are convineed that the free and unlimited co'r. of silver at a ratio of 16 to 1 by this countrg alone would result in disaster to the busine and commercial interests of the natfon, opinion in which we are sustained by most eminent authorities on finance in all parties and in ali countries. — Looking After Union Pacific Land CHEYENNE, Sept. 16.—(Speclal.)—The Unlon Pacific Raflroad company has filed | the Cheyenne land office & list for paten covering 88,33 acres of land In this dlstrig Parties interested at Silver Crown intent to enter a protest against the lssuance of patents in that district on account of the mireral character of the land.
