THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1895. REVELRY AT GILROY. Vast Throngs Assist the Natives in Making Merry. A MONSTER PAGEANT. Guests of the City Warmly Greeted by George Dunlap. SPORTS, BANQUET AND DANCE. Veteran Firemen of San Francisco Glve an Exhibition With a “Double-Decker.” GILROY, Car, Sept. 9.—Gilroy thronged with people. Thousands came inin the morning trains from every city and hamlet in San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Mateo, San Benito, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties. It is estimated there are between 15000 and 20,000 people in town. And Gilroy completely covered it- self with glory. The procession started at 10:30 A. m. from the schoolhouse. Basignano led the procession. After him came the early miners, twenty-five in num- ber, in costume, with a_float representing mining in the early days of California. This was heartily applauded as it passed down the line. Next came the Chiefs of Fire Depart- Ny is Grand Marshal Victor | MAYOR M. CASEY OF GILROY, [Reproduced from a photograph.] s Rea and Miss Irene Hankenson were in a surrey completely covered by white satin and white clematis. The ladies were in elegant gowns. Mrs. James A. Sargent ana Miss McCann of Santa Cruz had a phaeton in red satin and red geraniums. | S. F. Morse and family were in & surrey covered with red geraniums. “The Sutter” saloon float, Fredericks- | burg float, John Rea’s float showing the manufacturing of wine, Alliance Milling Company’s mule team filled with flour, Rucker ranch float and Loma Prieta Com- pany’s lumber float completed the proces- | sion. ments; following the Veterans' band the Veteran Volunteer Firemen of San Fran- cisco, eighty men in line, with their old “double-decker” fire engine. Mrs. Sam There were many carriages in line. District Attorney Herrington of Santa Clara County occupied one with a party of | friends. Deputy District Attorney Part- energies, their intelligence and their unfalter- ing allegiance to the Nation induced the Con- gress of these United States to unfurl the holi- est flag that ever kissed the air of heaven and upon its unsullied folds place et another star, | which glistens there to-day lustrous and pure as the diadems of the Cwmsars, growihg more and more resplendent as the years pass on, more and more as an ineffaceable monument to the manhood, the courage and the nobilty of the men who laid the foundation upon which we have built and are still builaing to-day. What man or woman to-day in this fair clime, sharing the sunshine and shadow, wan- dering through these broad valleys and over these ever more wondrous mountains, pluck- ing the fruits and the flowers that grow every- where in profusion—what! man or woman can cease for one moment to feel -that thrill of pride which fills our breasts to-day; which i makes us glad that in this wide earth kind GENERAL VIEW OF THE ARCH AND MONTEREY STREET, GILROY, LOOKING NORTH, [Sketched for “The Call.’] Rainey and Mrs. Sullivan, wife of Chief Bullivan, were next in line. Then came the Gilroy Common Council, the visiting press, the Watsonville City | band, the Watsonville Fire Department, | Vigilant Engine Company, Eureka Hook | and Ladder Company, with little Mi: Bordenave on a hose cart, canopied. The pretty Fireman’s Daughter, Miss | Laura Dewart, with her attendants, Misses sie Casey and Ollie Rivard, rode on the of a graceful swan. Gilroy wheelmen on handsomely deco- | rated wheels followed. There were some | unique decorations. | The third division was led by the Fifth | Regiment band of San Jose, and a great | cart from the Eagle Nursery. Gilroy | Lodge, 1. 0. O. F., with the Rebekah float, ' ridge and wife, Miss Lillian Rea and Miss Fannie Boyd were in a decorated carriage. Miss Hattie Bender, Mrs. Mary A. Rob- erts, Mrs. Sallinger and Mrs. P. Miller, all of San Francisco, rode in a carriage. It was the grandest street pageant ever seen south of San Francisco. Major Casey, in a neat speech at the conclusion of the parade, introduced George T. Dunlap, the orator of the day, who delivered a short and eloguent address of welcome. He said: Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: With sentiments of patriotism and pride I rise to greet the multitude of faces I now see before me. Your presence here attests the fact that the sons and daughters of this fair State are still loyal to the trust their fathers have left them and I hasten to congratulate you one and all upon the patriotic enthusiasm which GEORGE T, DUNLAP, WHO WELCOMED GILROY’S GUESTS, [Reproduced from a photograph.] ‘was next. Miss Mamie Bruen in a hand- somely decorated cart, and driving a Shet- lanZ pony, was in front of the Gilroy Drum Corps: Fremont Parlor, Native Sons, from Hollister, with representatives from Sa- linas, San Lucas and other places, made a fine showing. The Native Sons’ float of Gilroy Parlor No. 81 was very attractive. Miss Madge Cleveland was the fair maiden representing Eureka, and a live eagle and black bear, with the main agricultural prod- ucts of the State, completed the float. Gilroy Parlor No. 81 was in the rear. The Zouaves had a very pretty float, rep- resenting a camping scene. There were many handsomely decorated private carriages. Among them was that of Miss Nettie Whitehurst and Miss May Ostrom, which was in pure white. Mrs. Hecker, Mrs. J. W. Lewis, Miss Carrie still burns in your bosoms and has drawn to* gother this vast concourse of people for the pur- pose of commemorating that glorious day when this, the fairest and richest State in all that bright galaxy of stars, assumed its station in the grand confederation of this Nation and emblazoncd its deathless ‘name upon that proud emblem of liberty, and thus became an integral part of the wisest and most wonderful political conception the world has yet seen. It is indeed fitting that the festivities of this day should be inaugurated by the beating of drums and the boistorous uotes of bugles, that this grand pageant should pass in bright review with military tread, its gorgeous en- signs waving out on every breeze as if to lend their wealth of inspiration and add new emphasis to the enthusiasm of this occasion. Next in importance, to us, to the day when our forefathers signed that immortal document which declared our country free and independ- ent is this glorious day we now celebrate, when the pioneers of this fair State by their heaven reserves the fairest fspot of all for us. | Next to the allegiance we owe the whole | | country is the obiigation we owe the State in which we live, the State where our children are cradled, where our sons and our daughters | are educated, where they are to develop that spirit of devotion to ovr institutions of gov- | ernment which will fit them to become useful citizens and loyal subjects of the whole nation. | We must foster this spirit of patriotism; we | | must infuse it into the hearts of our people; | | we must remember that we never can be pros- | perous and happy unless intelligent and free; that the price of freedom is eternsl vigilance, | and we who are the descendants of the men | who lighted the sacred fires of liberty in this | land must guard this legacy thus bequeathed to us, for if we do not it will pass to other | hands less mindful of the sacred principles by | which our fathers reared this mighty edifice, | and then will shake and crumble that noble | | fabric of American liberty, thus far the proud- est proauct of any civilization. O California, grand empire by the sea, Fairest of all that group of sisters fair, ‘When shall we ceage to love and reverence thee And guard thine onward march with jealous care ? ’ Proud daughter of all the mighty distant West, Across thy bosom the sun of heaven forever shines. We who have known thee longest love thee best, Thy hills, thy dales, thy gold ana silver mines. Sail on, thou mighty ship of state, With all thy wealth of hove in store. Thou hast a fature grander to relate Than all the lands and climes of ancient lore. Thy pathway blossoms all the way Amid the constellations old and new. Thy name has gained in grandeur day by day, To thee we pledge our hearts and lives anew. In the afternoon the hosé teams from Hollister, Salinas, Watsonville and Gilroy contested for prizes, $200 going to the win- ner and $75 to second. Gilroy won in 1-5; Watsonville, second, :57 8-5; Hol- lister, third, :60; Salinas, fourth, :61. The surrey of Mrs. J. W. Lewis, Mrs. Henry Hecker, Miss Carrie Rea and Miss Irene Hankenson was awarded the prize for the best decorated surrey in the parade. Ross Sargent took first prize for the best decorated wheel in the parade. The Veteran Volunteer Firemen of San Francisco, with their lady friends and the visiting press, were present at a banquet given by the ladies of Gilroy at Music Hall to-night. The NativeSons attended a ban- quet given by Gilroy Parlor, at Rea’s Hall. Over 200 invitations were issued, and the visiting press was included in the fortu. nate recipients. Fremont Parlor, N. 8. G. W., of Hollis- ter, has headquarters at the Et Cetera Club rooms, and is dispensing hospitalities with a lavish hand. The Veterans gave an exhibition of fighting fire in the olden times with the old hand-engines after the horseraces, which excited much applause. To-morrow there will be a grand prome- nade concert in the morning; in the after- noon hook-and-ladder races by firemen from Hollister, Watsonville, Monterey and Gilroy, followed by footraces for firemen, bicycle races and a balloon ascension. A counter attraction will be the bicycle races at the Gilroy track, under the man- agement of the San Jose Road Club. Prizes amounting to $250 are to be given. At night there will be a lantern parade gy the wheelmen, followed by a ball at usic Hall, given by Gilroy Parlor. The grand march will be led by A. Robinson, captain of the Pioneers, and Miss Laura Dewart, the Fireman’s Daughter. Fatally Shot His Father. LOGANSPORT, Ixp., Sept. 9.—Frank Kemp, aged 28 years, fatally shot his father, Daniel Kemp, at Galveston this af- ternoon. - The son is thought to be insane. - BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL Is What William Greer Harrison Says of the Yachts. FAITH IN THE DEFENDER Thinksthe Yankee Maiden Wil1 Waltz Away From the Valkyrie. ALL READY FOR THE BIG RACE. Experts and Others Tell Why the Herreshoff Craft Should Easily Win. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 9.—A careful review of Saturday’s race leads me to believe that the cup will be success- fully defended. Beautiful, alluring and majestical as the Valkyrie undoubtedly is, I thing the rakish Yankee maiden will waltz away from her triumphantly. I never saw anything on the water so typical of strength and beauty as the Valkyrie, nor could there be anything more dantily, ravishingly typical of the high-bred American swift-winged maid than the Defender. I take in the triangular race on Tuesday, and you will hear from me in time for Wednesday's issue. . ‘WirLiaM GrEEr HARRISON. Lo FOR THE SECOND RACE. The Defender and Valkyrie to Sail Over a Triangular Course. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 9.—Lord Dun- raven will make his second try for the America cup to-morrow. His fleet-footed Valkyrie 111 will meet America’sjchampion Defender in a 30-mile race over a triangu- lar course. It will be the second in the scries of international races, and it will take three winnings to decide whether the blue ribbon of the sea remains here or goes to England. Unlike Saturday’s contest, which tested the qualities of the yachts on two points of sailing only, the race to-morrow will re- quire them to show their ability on almost every point. If possible, one leg of the course will be to windward, so that the | yachts may have beating to windward, running free, and reaching with the wind on the quarter. The weather predictions seem to favor the British boat, whose best work, so far as has been observed here, is in light winds and a smooth sea. Local Forecast Officer Dunn says: “The weather to-morrow will be generally fair. About the only change, if there is any,will be in the temperature, which may be a trifle cooler. The wind will vary from light to fresh breezes. That is to say, it may blow from six to eight miles an hour, and from the southeast. It is very proba- ble that the day will be hazy. There are no storms in sight, and unothing to indi- cate any disturbance.” In Saturday’s race, while the five to seven knot breeze prevailed for three- quarters of an hour after the start, the Valkyrie made gains on the Defender. The rough sea threw her back more than it did the Defender, but the British boat plainly had the bestof it. When the wind fresh- ened a little she ceased to gain, and when it grew to be a nine to ten knot breeze she simply could not keep the pace set by the American boat. Should the sea be smooth and the wind six to eight miles an hour as the weather prophet says, there may be less hilarity in the crowd of sight-seers than on Saturday. Jndging from what has been seen of the two boats when they have been near each other, the Defender has no walk-over, and unless there are good, stiff breezes to-morrow and Thurs- day the American boat will not win three straight races this year. There was a good sailing breeze to-day, and the wind to- morrow may prove much stronger than Farmer Dunn. bas mapped out. The Britons are by no means discouraged, even though Americans in the excess of their vatriotism are shouting that the cup is safe. The fleet of excursion steamers an- nounced for to-morrow is nearly as great as for the first race, but the unprecedented attendance of Saturday is hardly expected. Extra efforts will be made to keep the steamboats at a distance from the racers, and after the comments on the subject the yachts will probably not experience so much interference. The start to-morrow is to be made from the Sandy Hook Light- ship unless the committee decides to change to another location at the last mo- ment. The triangular course will be laid out so as to give the yachts a beat to wind- ward on one leg. One turn will be out to sea and the other will be either off Long Beach on the Long Island shore, or off Long Branch on the New Jersey side. The direction of the wind will decide which way the yachts will be sent around. The programme calls for the preparatory signal at 10:50 and the start at 11. The boats will have two minutes in which to cross the line and be timed. The regatta committee and the America cup committee will. use the tug Walter Luckenbach, and two other tugs will be used as stakeboats. The New York Yacht Club’s steamer will carry members and guests. bl The Defender and the Valkyrie went out for a sail-stretching spin this afternoon, cruising about in the Narrows and lower bay for three hours. The Valkyrie was the first to get under way at about 2 o'clock. The Defender followed half an hour later. There was no brush between them, though at one time, standing on even tacks down the Narrows and past the quarantine island, it looked as though there might be a little impromptu contest. A thick haze which had hung over the bay in the morning cleared away some- what during the afternoon and a light southerly breeze increased to a 16-mile clip, and under it the yachts bowled along at a good gait closely watched by many on- lookers from the Long Island and Staten Island shores. —_———— EXHIBITION OF STUP1DITY. What Foreigners Think of the Associated Press Blunders. KINGSTON, Oxr., Sept. 9.—The mis- leading bulletins regarding the yacht race issued by the Chicago Associated Press on Saturday are severely commented upon. After The United Press had announced the result of the race and that the Defender had won the Chicago concern continued issuing bulletins to the effect that the Val- kyrie was ahead. LONDON, ExG., Sept. 9.—The papers taking the Chicago Associated Press re- ports here are disgusted with the fake re- ports of the yacht race suppiied by that association on Saturday. A large number of sporting men whom the Chicago con- cern reports had been induced to believe that it was a Valkyrie race are very much incensed over the outrageous exhibition of stupidity. e WATSON HAS RETRUOGRADED. An Expert Says He Should Have Con- fined Himself to the Thistle. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 9.—1t is in- teresting to note that the aftermath of opinion concerning the merits of the Val- kyrie and Defender expresses in a great de- gree the American spirit of jubilance. ‘While before the result of Saturday’s race was correctly announced dgubt and gloom prevailed, the opinion now is one of uni- versal confidence in the American chances of success. The English contingent, most of whom had really thought they had something quite the thing in Valkyrie III, are now correspondingly disheartened. A frequent expression of opinion among the Ameri- canized Britons and Scotchmen is that George L. Watson would have done better had he communed only with himself and developed his own ideas, than to have copied, followed and been guided by the models of other designers, American, Scotch and English, which he might have deemed more or less correct and valuable in their way. A well-known naturalized Scotch yachtsman is quoted as follows: “I am not a crower, nor do I like to say ‘T told you so,’ but I have thought this thing all along, and from private informa- tion which I had concerning the design of the Valkyrie 1II and her appearance to me in the shop I believe that Mr. Watson might better have kept to himself and tried to improve the Thistle. To my ideas the non-success of the Valkyrie ILI does not indicate anything but that we are now farther apart than ever as regards the two prominent yachting nations. Personally I would prefer that they might, for the in- terest of sport, soon agree upon a type which would be universally accorded con- fidence, so that we might each develop ac- cording to our own ideas cof detail a universal type of boat, and that the careful attention to minor details might be the fiat of our energy in amateur naval architecture. I am sorry for this as a Scotchman, and as an American I have become so thoroughly Americanized that I do not, of course, have the feeling toward Mr. Watson's boat—the desire to see her win—that I might have had had I remained a British subject. “In the interests of this sport an occa- sional win by an English yacht might be gratifying. With the true National te- nacity our people have, one or another, been making successive challenges in the endeavor to regain the America cup. ‘When you consider the fact that the cup itself is valueless, and that only the glory of amateur supremacy attaches to its win- ning or losing, and that it has cost to build the boats now engaged a matter of some- thing like $160,000, it seems ridiculous, per- haps, but that it is warranted by the inter- est is, of course, an evident fact. ‘1 believe that in the fine keel there is much yet to be developed, although prac- tically, for ordinary purposes, the type is more useless than the most pronounced Scotch cutter which I remember to have ever seen. Again, the Valkyrie III, as you know, is so beamy that she bas not won the confidence of our people over there. It appears now that their distrust was not misplaced. Of course, under other condi- tions the Valkyrie III may yet win. Ido not expect it, and believe that the Vigi- lant could have beaten the present Valky- rie under the conditions prevailing Satur. day. In fact, it seems to me that the Defender is far better than the Watson production, and I believe that Watson has retrograded instead of advancing since his challenger of 1893. ¢ “In the Valkyrie IT he had combined certain principles which had been used by Fife Jr., with certain 1deas of American modelers. He might better have stopped with the Thistle, Thisis my belief. It will be ten years probably before our in- ternational designers will agree upon a set type and expend their technique upon its development.” The betting on the street this morning was very dull and 25to 10 and 7 to 3 bas been offered with no takers and 6 to 1 upon the Defender was not looked at. The bet- tors with Valkyrie money will wait until after the second race. Should the Val- kyrie have scored a win it may be possible that the money market may become a lit- tle brisker and that the guineas sent here to prominent change commission houses may be brought forth from their private boxes. It was locked up tighter than the head of a snare drum to-day. —e IDEAS OF AN EXPERT. One Man Who Thinks the FValkyrie's Chance Good. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. Tribune’s expert says: It is not to be expected perhaps that any small increase of Saturday’s breeze will effect a change in the result of {0-morrow’s race. As long as the Defender can carry her full canvas she may expect to win. Her superiority in the lightness of the upper portion of her huil has been already made clear. Her buoyancy and the alacrity she displayed in regaining her former headway after being partly checked by sinking her bows in an oncoming sea was meanifest. In these respects she showed a superiority over the Valkyrie which could be detected in the active watching of both yachts. In the carefully calculated production of those quali- ties Herreshoff has made no mistake. The use of the aluminum plating, which is altogether a noveity in yacht-building, con- tained in its idea the best scientific knowledge of yacht-sailing. The advantage in having the upper works and top hamper of the greatest possible lightness has for many years been ap- parent to practical racing yachtsmen, and when these qualities have been acquired with- outincurring danger in the matter of fragility, a resulting superiority in the matter of speed isnot a mere matter of supposition but a sci- entific necessity, when ‘other qualities are equal. ‘The Defender’s abilities in the way of quick starting and immediate recovery after being checked are far more marked than in any yacht approaching her size that has ever been floated. This statement was not made lightly nor in the overweening confidence born of & eingle victory, but after careful personal ex- amination of the racing powers of every great sa1ling craft which the world possesses. 1t has often been hinted that in the desire to gain the foregoing advantages the utility of strength has been too much sacrificed, but in spite of the Defender’s many accidents it will be noticed that only a few of them coula be in any way attributed to & too greatzeal to obtain lightness. Itistrue that she broke her gaff, split her sails, twisted some aluminum fittings (which were replaced with steel) and that her first mast or its fictings proved unsatisfactory. But weak spots are frequently found in the best regulated boats, and these defects, which are now removed cannot be said to pro- vide any ready-made judgment as to what the Defender will do in the succeeding races. The Defender cannot be called & racing ma- chine. She isa yacht, but if she continues to win in light weather by reason of those quali- ties which so far have given her the victory she will be doing so because of advantages which can only be enjoyed by a defend- ing cratt and which at the present point of scientific discovery and test cannot be safely adopted by a vessel which has to cross the ocean. Yet, of course, it must not be for- gotten that there is a reverse to the medal. So {ar as any one can tell; the very qualities which 9.—The gave the Defender the victory on Saturday may prove her destruction to-morrow, and it eannot be denied that at least one win to the Valkyrie would render the sport and the excitement much more perfect. Lord Dunraven has brought over a noble +yecht,and perhaps there is not a single Ameri- can who would not prefer the Valkyrie to win at least one race as the reward of persistent and most sportsmanlike efforts, which have been continued in spite of repeated failures. In any case, and irrespective of any hospitable wishes, she will probably look after herself fairly well if the breeze reaches thirty miles an hour or upward. With the Detender there is, as has been said, a reverse side to the medal when the superiorities of her lightness are considered, and it is as yet entirely guesswork asto what this lightness will cost her in half & gale of wind. Apparently every Ameri yachtsman has ‘admitted that the Valkyrie is the more powerful boat of the two, though not neces- sarily the fastest. There has been a great deal of talk about “Valkyrie weather,” meaning something that was only one remove from a dead calm, and this arose because the Valkyrie people have not explained their yacht, but have kept silent and allowed the newspapers, both American and English, to do the talking. But this idea of the term “Valky- rie weather” has not been shared by the writer. It came from the English newspapers which frowned on the boat when it became manifest that she was oversparred for the heavy English winds and could not stand up aswell as that phenomenon, the Britannia. But this rating accorded to English weather is of no value when the race is to be sailed here. The Valkyrie was sparred to have some chance in the American light airs, but when it comes to reefing breezes she will certainly show a power that has been so far unde- veloped and has been ignored by the local newspapers—a power, it may be added, that now in a tacit yet eloquent way promises to be satisfactory to Lord Dunraven if he ever gets a chance. The situation is this: that when compared with the Britannia the Valkyrie is properly called a light-weather boat, but when compared with the Defender she is quite the reverse, and in this competition witl show her best powers in heavy winds. IHE R. A Repetition of Saturday’s Successful ZLaxhibition at “The .Call” Office. To-day San Franciscans will have an- other opportunity to witness, in miniature, the yacht racing between the Defender and the Valkyrie. The race to-day is on the triangular course, and each leg of the tri- angle is ten miles long. Those who wit- ness the miniature race to-day over the big sign of THe Carn in front of Tue CaLn business office on Market street will seean exact reproduction of the great interna- tional struggle, as it takes place in New York harbor. The length of the course over which the miniature Defender and Valkyrie will sail is sixty feet. This will be on a scale of six feet to the mile, and as the New York course is a triangular one, the tiny vessels will maneuver three times over their sixty-feet course in front of Tue Cavr office. The San Francisco models of the two yachts carry precisely the same sails as their prototypes, and will, during the course of the race, make exactly such changes in their sails as are made by the big yachts on the other side of the conti- nent. All this is done, of course, by THE CALL’S special telegraphic bulletins direct from the scene of the race. These bulietins are flashed across the continent every few minutes, and depict truly every change in the position, as well as the sailing gear, of the big yachts. Saturday’s exhibition in front of THE Carvr’s office was entirely successful and was witnessed by thousands. The exhibi- tion to-day will begin on the exact moment the big vachts make their start from the stakeboat. As the course over which the small boats sail is well elevated, everybody in the crowd is able to see the entire race, and there are no preferred seats. HISSED BY THE PREACHERS Agitator Hardie of England Before the Methodists of Chicago. Anarchists Executed for Murder Styled Pioneers of a New Gospel. CHICAGO, Ivw., Sept. 9.—Keir Hardie, English socialist and member of Parlia- ment, had an exciting session with the Methodist ministers to-day. Mr. Hardie bad been invited by the Chicago Metho- dist Episcoyal preachers to speak before them this morning. After a mildly spoken denunciation of the church and clergy, Mr. Hardie said: *“The early Christians were criticized for their religion, and the press of that day, if there was such an institution, which I hope there was not, held them up to ridi- cule, but the truth they taught was not ex- tingnished. They were crucified and burned at the stake and felt it an honor to die in the cause which they indorsed. The world could not see the truth of their ‘teachings. And is it not possible that the men hanged in Chicago a few years ago (the anarchists) may be pioneers of a new gospel 2"’ “Those fellows ought to have been hanged,” interrupted Rev. D. J. Holmes at this point. Cries of “No, no,” and deafening ap- plause drowned the voice of the speaker, who, when he could be heard above the tumult, retorted “‘So the Jews said.” The rest of the speaker's remarks were swallowed in the roar of disapproval which had not yet subsided. “I want to speak according to my con- victions,”” rejoined Mr, Hardie, as he seated himself and waited for the tumult his remarks had occasioned to lessen. Dr. Swift, the presiding officer, implored the gathering to refrain from interrup- tions, and one of the, clergymen present demanded that if the expressions of dis- ‘approbation were not allowable applause be also barred. To this proposition Dr. Swift agreed, and although those unfavor- ably impressed with the speaker’s senti- ments adhered to their part of the agree- ment, the applauders had to be reminded more than once before Mr. Hardie con- cluded his address to keep quiet. I CAN'T TRACK FARDEN. Flight of the Thieving Cashier of Adams Express. TERRE HAUTE, Isp., Sept. 9.—The detectives as yet have not tracked Cashier Farden, of the Adams Express Company, or City Ticket Agent Barnett further than to the east-bound Big Four train early Sat- urday morning. It is now believed that neither man decided to leave the city until Friday evening. There were other times when they could have taken more money and left without exciting _suspicion, as they did Friday night. Their plans were hastily arranged. Both men were short in their accounts, and rather than face the issue they con- cluded to run away with what was in the safe that night. Farden was under bond in'the amount of $3,000, furnished by the Philadelphia Trust and Security Company. ] e b e Bl £ IRROYAR NEW TO-DAY. Style, Comfort, Price.
