Detectives Whittaker and McMahon as they were about to board the Stockton steamer, and booked en route to Perry, Oklahoma, where they are w ted for obtaining morney by false pretenses. From the dispatches received from the Sheriff of Perry, Raybourn and Mrs. Strove planned an elopement, after fraud- ulently obtaining $2000 from a real estate dealer named Fred Cumby. Raybourn is married to Mrs. Strove's sister; whom he deserted to elope with Loretta. Mrs. Strove is also married, and is the mother of four children.

The directors expect to finish the work in this respect and present a report to-night. _The action of the committee in engag- ing five Tooms in the Baldwin Annex for permanent headquarters and paying five months’ reat in advance was approved by the league. It was decided to wire the mittee consisting of seventy-five promi- nent citizens of Republican faith.

School Census Marshal Elbert yewter- day submitted his report on the number of school children in San Francisco be- tween 5 and 17 years of age to Superin- tendent of Schools Webster. The report shows that there are at present in this city 82,173 children who are eligible to attend school. This is an increase of 3619 over last year. The Stafe apportionment for the school funds of this city, which is based on the census, will amount this year to $708,- 687 80, figuring $8 60 for each school child. Last year_the apportionment .was $679, 462 10,"or $5 65 for_each child. i Superintendent Webster is of the opin- 5 60 will be a safe estimate for this year and_the amount allowed for schools by the State will be $27,19 70 more than last year.

Outshoot the British in the Clay Bird Match. LONDON, June 12—The international clay-bird trap-shooting match, which was begun yesterday on the grounds of the Middlesex Gun Club, Hendon, was re- sumed under entirely different weather conditions to-day. Rain, with varying winds, fell during the early afternoon, making shooting extremely difficult. The Americans gathered confidence, however, from thelr work of yesterday and their gorice familiarity with their surround- At the end of the sixtieth round, when each side had shot at targets, the | British gunners had broken 476 and the ory com- | Americans 524 Out of the first sixty targets W. R. Crosby broke 58; Fred Gii- bert, 56; John S. Fanning, 5, and R. O. Haikes, 5. The match closed for the day in a driving rain with the following totals: Americans, §77; British, 794. ‘When the contest closed this afternoon it was believed that to-morrow’s shoot would surely end the match in favor of the Americans, Their average to-day was decidedly better than that of yester- day, but the team will be disappointed if to-morrow’'s average, under anything like favorable conditions, does not exceed %0 per cent. B Crosby led to-day's score with 95 per cent of kills; Helkes and Gilbert with 93 gxef cent each and Tripp with 9 per cent. 0 member of the American team secured less than 87, whereas the highest British score was 87 per cent. In view of the fact that to-morrow’s match will decide the contest, a number of sweepstakes have been arranged for Fri- day and Saturday and a live bird contest for Monday, after which the American team will go to Glasgow,proceeding from that city to Germany and France. ook el Piperlen Wins the Hurdle Race. - PARIS, June 12.—M.

X r 7 LAWSON'S BOAT T0 BE ALTERED First Series of Sail Trials. ———e Her Spread of Canvas Reduced. BOSTON, June 12.—The first of the se- ries of trials of the yacht Independence was finished to-day, and the big ninety- footer will not go out again until some changes have been made to correct a few slight defects brought out during the five days of sailing. These changes will be a shortening of the mast, a reduction of the sall area due to the tenderness shown by the boat while on the wind and the sub- stitution of a stern-post rudder for the balance affair, which has not proved sat- isfactory. The mast will be shortened ten feet, four feet being taken off the mainmast and six feet from the foot of the topmast. The reductions in the sail area will come through the cutting off of two feet from the top of the main- sail and some slight changes in the head- salls, or a total of some 200 square feet. This reduction will lighten the hamper and stiffen the yacht without ad- ditional ballast. The Independence sailed to-day for the first time under racing canvas, mainsalil, foresall, jib, jib topsail and club topsail, and in the light breeze seemed to slp along very fast. The Independence will go into the navy yard drydock to-morrow as soon as her mast has been removed. @ it @ P 2 FASTEST CRAFT OF HER CLAS New Battleship Illinois Breaks the World's Record. BOSTON, June 12.—With the proud dis- tinction of being the fastest battleship in America and the speediest of her class in the world, the new sea-fighter Illinois came to anchor in President’'s Roads to- night after a most successful trial. Over the Governor course, from Cape Ann to Cape Porpolse and return, a distance of sixty-six nautical miles, she raced to-day under the watchful eyes of United States naval representatives and established a new record by maintaining an average speed of 17.31 knots for four consecutive hours. Not only did she demonstrate that she was faster than any warship of her &ize afloat, but she proved her ability to turn upon an enemy with extraordinary quickness by describing a complete circle within 300 yards, or little more than twice her length, in three minutes and ten sec- onds while plowing through the sea at full speed. Steadiness and reserve power character- ized the performance of the ship through- out the entire test. ‘The work of her engines was smooth and even and the rec- ords of the day showed but one-tenth of a knot difference in speed between the northern run and the return run. The machinery easily met every requirement and not an accident of any kind marre the success of the day. ’ Admirals Are Delighted. Rear Admiral Sampson, who was on board unofficially, and 'Rear Admiral Evans, who acted as president of the trial board, as well as the other naval officers who participated in the trial, were thor- oughly pleased with the new champion and as she steamed back to her anchorage with a broom at her masthead the of- ficials of the Newport News Ship-buildin; Company, whose three years of labor has reacked such a happy climax, were en- thusiastically congratulated. The day could not have been more per- fect for the trial of a battleship. "Hardly a breath of air ruffied the water as the Vessel steamed out of Boston harbor. The Illinois was hardly a thing of beauty as she Jaid her course for Cape Ann, but the white wave turned up at her bow gave those on board the impression that she was out for a business-like day’s work, The first mark-boat, the converted yacht Hist, was in sight just before 10 o’clock, and twelve minutes past that hour the ship crossed the starting line, with her engines registering 117 revolutions to’ the minute. The ship passed mark-boat No. 2, the training ship Lancaster, at a 17-knot gait, 22 minutes and 53 seconds after the start. The next mark, the old Essex, was picked up 23 minutes and 20 seconds later, the Newport in 22 minutes 12 seconds, the Peorfa in 23 minutes 3 seconds, and the naval tug Potomac at buoy No. 6, Indl- cating the end of the 33-knot run north- ward, in 22 minutes 36 seconds. Maintains Even Speed. For a part of the northward run the Illinofs had reached a speed of 17.8¢ knots an Leur, and at no time did she drop be- uoy low ' 16.97. No. 6 was passed at 12:06:07, showing elapsed time for the run of 1 hour 45 minutes and 4 seconds, and an average speed for the 33 knots of 17.36 nautical miles. On the return the elapsed time between buoys was abput the same as during the first half of the trial. Again she reached a maximum speed of 17.84, with a mini- mum of 16.97. The finish line was passed and the speed trial was over at 1:18:33, the elapsed time being 1:54:42 and the average speed for the second half 17.26, The completed figures for the entire 66 knots gave 3:48:46 elapsed time and the average speed 17.31 knots per hour. Tidal corrections may make slight alteradons in these figures, hut the changes are not likely to affect the result materially. e N WIFE-MURDER QUICKLY FOLLOWED BY SUICIDE Denver Bookkeeper Ends His Life After Shooting His Spouse Through Heart. DENVER, June 12.—Julius C. Benton, living at 2447 Welton = street, shot and killed his wife fo-night and then killed himself. The shot which killed Mrs. Ben- ton was fired through the window of their residence. It passed through her heart and caused instant death. Benton shot himself in the head and died later at the County Hospital.. They leave two chil- dren, a girl aged nine and a boy aged seven. Mrs. Benton was a daughter of former State Auditor John W. “Lowell, now head of the Lowell, Barroll and De- head bookeeper for the company. It is said that Benton and his wife had frequently quarreled of late. The father of the dead woman expresses the bellef that Benton was insane. Mrs. Lowell, mother of the woman, is in a state of nervous collapse from the shock. TRAFFIC MANAGER BAIN DIES AT HOUSTON HOUSTON, Tex., June 12.—C. W. Bain, traffic manager of the Southern Pacific, died this afternoon. Y Traffic Manager C. W. Bain was well known in_this city. He was looked upon as one of the brightest frelght men in the employ of the Southern Pacific. It is generally conceded that Bain's succes- sor will be appointed from the East, an that no railroad man from this city will fl’l his position. * P . - A Carload of Trunks. dress-suit cases, just received.

'PURSES ARE EQUALLY DIVIDED Horton Wins After BY FAVORITES AND OUTSIDERS a Good Ride by J. McCarty---Montallade and Good Hope Pass Under the Wire for First Money s < AVORITES and long shots divided the card at Oakland yesterday. In the first three races the unex- pected happened and those who “ought to” did not. Then Mon- tallade at 4 to 5 hoofed past the judges’ stand first, followed in.successive races by ‘Gocd Hope and Horton, both picked as good investments. Prestene presented the first surprise. Gelting away well at the start Presteae led all the other maiden two-year-old fil- lies round the full four furlongs. Flattered managed to save the place, You You com- ing up strongly from behind, capturing the show. Saul of Tarsus was_the favorite in the second race over the Futurity course, but First Shot bolted so fast from the stretch to the wire that Saul was changed from a leader to a second. Monda made the show. | It is doubtful whether any equal number | of superbly bad actors were ever bunched in such variety as in this race. Cliveden acted like a murderous maniac out for the barrier’s destruction. When the race was flnally run fines were levied on Ba: singer, who rode the winner, and Alexan- der on Meadow Lark. Russell was set down for the season. Sunello, despite recent heart-rending performances, was played for first money in the third race. lamero, leading until the ninth inning, died hard, Kastaine passing in for the place, while Faunette, working out of a pocket at the last turn, won after a game rush up the stretch. Montallade at 4 to 5, with Russell up, won an easy raceQver the six and a half furlong route for Pour-year-olds and up. Gibraltar's guns were booming in place, Decoy making the show at the last attack. Bassinger piloted Good Hope to port in the fifth race. The others seemed to be backward when the test came. Ralston got the red ribbon and Racetto the white. Good Hope was afterward bid up to $800, being retained by the present owner. Bé a splendid ride at the hands of J. McCarty, Horton, even money favorite, beat the field in the last race, showing strength enough at the finish to keep in gd{a.nce of Dangerous Maid and pass nips. To-Day’s Entries.

McKINLEY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE STEADILY | Intense Heat at Washington Has No Appreciable Effect on the Patient. WASHINGTON, June 12.—Dr., Rixey, on leaving the White House to-night after his usual late call, sad: “Mrs. McKinley is getting along very nicely. Her improvement continues steadily. The heat is not affecting her materially.” Dr. Rixey's visit occupled less than an hour, a shorter time than for many evenings previously. He appeared more encouraged than usual, but was non-com- mittal when asked more particularly about the case. The intense heat is nat- urally felt in the sick room, but had no very appreciable effect upon the patient’s condition. Surgeon General Sternberg, after his evening visit, said Mrs. McKinley was making favorable progress. The predic- tion in the bulletin of the doctm?u this morning that Mrs. M¢Kinley would be able to sit up during the day was borne out. She sat in the rolling chair in the room, but it was for only a very short time.
