Suggestion Is That Best of Three Boat: Shall Enter Race. e T S GLASGOW, Nov. 23. — The reported intention of Clyde yachtsmen to chal- lenge for the America’s cup was to-day confirmed by the Glasgow Herald. The paper adds: “The latest suggestion on the subject, which is favorably received, is that Messrs. Coates, Clark and Donaldson should head three separate syndicates and have three yachts, designed re- spectively by Watson, Fife and Mylno, the yachts to be raced throughout the summer and the hest one to be selected to_challenge in 1905.” LONDON, N .—Peter Donaldson, Who formerly owned the famous racing yacht Isolde, when questioned to-day regarding the Glasgow Herald's state- ment, said that he was not connected with the syndicate mentioned and knew nothing about the matter. BERLIN, Nov. 23. — Lord Lonsdale, who, on the occasion of his present visit to Emperor Willlam, is acting as “Embassador of the American Yacht Clubs,” spent five hours with the Em- peror to-day. The delicate relations between the Atlantic Yacht Club and the New York Yacht Club were dis- cussed &nd a way satisfactory to all in- terested in the difficulty of selecting the club which will present the Em- peror's trophy for a trans-Atlantic yacht race will probably be found. In :h; meantime no decisions hayve been aken. R S — BENNINGS AND LATONIA RACES Summary of the Events at the Two Eastern Tracks. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—Bennings summary: .

Kreling for many years held the amateur wrestling championship of the coast. He is a prominefit member of the Olym- ple Athletic Club of this city and has been in Alaska for the last five years. Manager Coffroth is of the opinion that Gardner and Fitz will fight before a $26,000 house. The sale of seats has been exceedingly large and he bases his calculations on that. The first preliminary will be brought off promptly at 8:30 p. m.

G Fifty men and more than one hundred women cloakmakers walked out on a strike yesterday morning. The reason assigned for the strike is the refusal of the employers to give their help a half day off on Saturday afternoons. Several conferences have been held, and the ob- stinacy of both sides resulted in the tie- up. The executive council of the Labor Council will take up the issue at its meeting to-morrow night and try to ad- just matters satisfactorily to both sides before declaring a boycott on the repre- sented firms. A meeting of the State District Coun- cil of Laundry Workers met and organ- ized with the following as a board of di- rectors: A. L. Smith of Fresno, C. Rosenhaim of San Jose, J. H. Moritz of Oakland, Miss Carrie Palmer of Stockton, C. B. Scully of San Francisco, T. Bohen of Vallejo. Miss Palmer was chosen president of the board. It was decided to apply to the Shirt Waist and Laundry Workers' International Union for a charter for the new council. A request will also be made to the national body for funds to assist in the organization of the French laun- dry workers of the.coast. A constitution and by-laws were adopted. The question of a uniform wage scale was discussed. Arrangements were also mdde for the holding of a State convention of laundry workers at San Jose on January 3. A committee of three was appointed by the Janitors' Protective Union to arbi- trate the differences existing between -the employéers over the new trade rules lately made by the union. A like com- mittee will be appointed from the Labor Council at its next meeting to co-operate TOD SLOAN’S DAMAGE SUIT IN PARIS BEGINS American Rider Wants £8000 Be- cause He Was Excluded From Jockey Club Track. PARIS, Nov. 22.—The suit of Tod Slo: the American jockey, against the Jock.en{v Club for £8000 damages was called for trial to-day. The suit is brought on the ground that the action of the Jockey Club in excluding Sldan frogn the weighing-in inclosure and all training grounds con- trolled by.the society was without jus- tification. Sloan was accused of exercis- ing a horse, Rose de Mal, at Chantilly without authority. The horse won the Prix de Diane on May 20, after having been backed down from 12 to 4 to 1. The case will be resumed next Monday, when Maitre Meusser will present the argument in behalf of the Jockey Club, < ———— If our neighbors had as few faults as ourselves, what a ple: would be to live l':z- ooy oldv A with the janitor That there may be no collision be- tween employers and union hands, Secre- tary-Treasurer C.
