When either event occurs, everything will be favorable to the establishment of permanent peace.

Later accounts of the recent engagement in Balangas prov- ince between Captain H, C.

Residents along East Prospect street, near Lincoln avenue, on Lincoin avenue and Glen Park place, were aroused be- tween 4 and 5 o'clock in the morning by the sound of the booming waters. The water continued to rise steadily until it was eight feet deep. By 6 o'clock the residents along Lincoln avenue com- menced to move furniture and valuables to the second story, as the rushing tor- rent reached the level of the front porches, and in a number of houses swept into the first floors. The waters rushed back from Lincoln avenue until the big space just east of the avenue and be- tween East Prospect street and Euclid avenue was one great lake from four to ten feet in depth. Barns and huge pieces of lumber were swirled about like light corks and hurled into many Lincoln- avenue houses. FThe families of Mrs. V. E..Newton and A.

For three hours the women signaled for help from their house, which is situated in a little valley and was at the mercy of: the waters. he barn sheds were swept from thelr foundations and this added to the terror of the two women, who were alone with their children. As the water reached a depth of six feet and com- menced to pour into the first floor they became almost frantic.

EWPORT, R. I, Sept. 1.—Flying’ the British ensfgn and with the American flag at the fore and the Shamrock signal at the main, the Erin steamed Into Newport harbor to-day and anchored just outside of Goat Island. She brought Sir Thomas Lipton and his party to witness the second of the trial races between the Columbia and the Constitution, which will take place to-morrow. Besides the owner of the Shamrock there were on board De- signer Watson, Willlam Jameson, Captain [ Sycamore, Sailmaker Ratsey, David Bar- rie and Dr. Mackay. The Erin will go over the course to- morrow and the British yachtsmen will have another opportunity to see the American boats out for a race. Mean- While Captain Sycamore and Mr. Jameson of the Shamrgck will get a line on the sea jockeying of the men who will contend against them in the cup contests at Sandy Hook. After the race to-morrow, Sir Thomas and his party will be the guests of Commodore Lewls Cass Ledyard at his residence. Then they will board the Erin and start at once for Sandy Hook, to be on hand for the Shamrock’s spin Tuesday. Sir Thomas Lipton was much interested in the details of yesterday’s trial races, ) 05 BUTCHERS OPPOSE THE LAW Attack Constitutionality of the Sunday Clos- ing Measure. il S NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—The law com- pelling butcher shops to remain closed on Sunday went into effect to-day, and a fight to have the enactment declared invalid will be commenced. To see that the measure was properly enforced the Benchmen’s Assoclation, which is the organization of the journeymen butchers, had been patrolling the streets and watching butcner shops in every part of the city. There were hundreds of pickets out ai'd as a result about a dozen arrests were made. In some instances the prisoners were fined from $3 to $5, in one or two cases they were discharged and in two in- stances held to special sessions. The boss butchers, who are opposed to _— BRITISH YACHTSMAN WHO WILL AGAIN ATTEMPT TO “LIFT” THE AMERICA’S CUP, AND THE BOSTON MAN WHO STANDS READY TO GIVE $100,000 TO CHARITY IF THE INDEPENDENCE FAILS TO BEAT which he had not heard. In speaking of yesterday's performance of the Shamrock at Sandy Hook, he sald: “It was a fine spin indeed. A good six- teen-knot wind was blowing and it was by far the best try-out the boat has had since she came over. We would be very much pleased, and we ask no better weather conditions in the cup races, than those of yesterday.” Learns of Lawson’s Challenge. Sir Thomas was told of the announce- ment of Thomas W. Lawson, owner of the Independence, that' he would be glad to race his boat against all three or any cne of the 90-foot sloops—Shamrock II, Col- umbia or Constitution—with _the under- standing that if he failed to win two out of three of the contests he would donate $100,000 to any worthy charity. Sir Thomas had not seen the statement, however, and was not prepared to dis: cuss it. ‘Tt has been generally understood that the owner of Shamrock II considered that his boat was brought to this country to race for the America's cup, and that he could not participare in other races, the mission of his yacht being to meet tho defender of the cup and win the coveted trophy if possible. None of the officials of the New York Yacht Club would talk about Mr. Law- son’s offer. If challenges should be issued in behalf of the Independence they would properly be made to managers of the boats named, and would be dealt with by B S T T 2 2 2 2 T S 2 e o the law, have retained counsel. Their at- torney announces that he will attack the constitutionality of the measure when the matter comes up in the Court of Special Sessions. The employing butchers who oppose the: e law assert that it is a most arbitrary and unreasonable ore, in that up to 10 o’clock in the morning people can buy cold meats and other edibles at delicatessen stores. They say that Governor Odell signed it under a misapprehension, thinking that it was favored by the butcher shop pro- prietors, as' well as the journeymen's union. 'The former declares that 75 per cent of the men running meat establish- ments are opposed to it. It is also as- serted that })eople of little means will suffer by it, for they cannot afford to buy ice boxes amd keep their meats in them over Saturday night. Nicaraguan Congress Adjourns.

It would not come with- in the province of the New York Yacht Club to pass upon the matter in any | way, Independence Is Out of It. Although no statement has ever been made officially on the subject, it is Zen- erally understood here that neither the Columbia nor the Constitution would w der any circumstances race the Independ- ence again, and that she was dropped out of consideration some time ago. It was a dull and rainy day for the yachtsmen in the harbor. Absolutely nothing was done on either the Columbia or the Constitution, and both officers and crew) had a rest. In answer to an In-| quiry as to the report that the crews cn | the two boats might be changed, Mr. | Duncan of the Constitution sald it was entirely without foundation, so far as he knew. To-morrow's race is looked forward to with the deepest interest. The challenge committee of the New York Yacht Club has a problem to solve and it is watching the present series with more or less anx- iety. It is puzzled by the behavior of ‘he Constitution and at a loss to account for her successive defeats in light weather, when she did so well in these conditions at the outset. Tt is sald here to-night that if the Columbia wins to-morrow’s contest the committee may extend the trials and make the series five instead of three, but no announcement has been made to this effect by one in authority.
