Aug. %—In a slorioully whole-sail breese, over a trianguiar course. ten miles to the leg, the feet-footed cup defender. Reltance, again showed its heels to 8ir Thomas Lipton's challenger. taking the second race of the cup series of 1W8 by the narrow margin of ome minute and nineteen geconds. It was as pretty and as hard fought a comtest as has ever been sailed off Sandy Hook, and had the wind not fallen during the last ten minutes the record for the course, 3:12:15. made by Co- lumbla two years ago in its memorable race against Shamrock I, would have been broken. As it was Rellance sailed the thirty miles within two minutes and thirty-nine sec- onds of the record, which speaks wonders for its speed in the wind that was blow- ing. Rellance's victory, narrow as it was, would have even been smaller had not Cap- 'ain Wringe, the skipper of the British boat. bungled the start, sending his craft over the line nineteen seconds after the | last gun. and handicapping it to that ex- tent. At every point of sailing the defend- er's superfority was demonstrated. It gained one minute and fifty-one seconds in windward work, forty seconds on the run to the second mark and forty-five seconds on the close reach for home. Belleve Cup in Safe. Based on the magnificent showing it has made in the two races aiready salled, it is the bellef of many experts that the cup is safe and that it will take something better than Fife's latest creation to get it. assemblage of excursion vessels al- large last Saturday of Help,' However, | eourage Them to En- te Leav. that Country. | BaAsI Switzerland, Aug.

Such support mighg take the form of sup- porting the Zionist demands on the Otto- | man government a-d helping the Jews with granting socleties. The Russian government | has been obliged to act toward the Jewish | question as the Interests of the state re- quire, but it has never deviated from the great principles of fmorality and humanity. | He hoped nothing will prevent the de- velopment of measures tending to improve the conditions of the existence of the Rus- | sian Jews, espectally if emigration de- reased their numbers. | NRIGHT STOCKS WORTHLESS | o the Extent of Five .

In this “gabfest,” the friends f Bryan protested angrily that the en- dorsement of the Denver manifesto would 4 slap in his face, that it was pre- mature in assuming the success of the | democratie reorganizers, that it was a slap in Bryan's back. On the other side the signers of the manifesto proclaimed that ey had given their words of honor to Ty it out, that the popullst party was dead but for this rejuvenation. They were old they had gone out to Denver to re- organige the populist party, when they had no authority whatever to do so. Indulg- ng in personalities, Vice Chairman Ed- taunted ex-Lieutenant Governor sert with having been a silver republican up to within two yeams, and that those who had done least say most. In return Edminsten w id he wanted t0 do all the talking because he had re- ceived all the benefits. Much time was devoted to the inconsistency of refusing to fuse nationally, and then fusing on state and local tickets. But it was the piea for Bryan that turned the scale. The debate was participated in by nearly every dele- gate able (o talk and lasted over three Lours. Attendance is Small.

On motion of ex-Governor Poynter the conventipn proceeded to the nomination of a supreme judge, without waiting for a platform, and at the suggestion of Tib- bles, assisted by M. F. Harrington, & nom- ination by acclamation was given to John J. Sullivan. The haste being apparently precipitated to get in ahead of' the demo- crats at Columbus, an attempt was made 1o instruct the secretary to wire Judge Sullivan and the demoeratic convention notifying them of the action tuken, and inviting an acceptance from the nominee. A noisy protest by Tibbles roused the dele- gates to a sense of their independence and that they should proceed without recog- nizing the existence of the demoeratie con. vention, and ail relsting to the demoerats ecut out. The fusion element, however, was not satisfied with this.
