NEW YORK, MONDA Y, JULY 22 ONE OF “THE EVENING WORLD'S” METHODS OF REPORTING THE YACHT RACE, JURORS FOR MARIA. All Will Sign a Petition of Mercy for the Condemned Girl. Even a majority of the jurors who found Maria Barberi guilty of murder in the first degree have expressed the hope that the Governor will show clem- ency in her behalf. Their opinions have been given to the public through letters to “The World.” Nearly all the jurors say they aro willing to sign a petition to the Gov- ernor asking for clemency for the con- demned girl, and Juror Cohen adds that it was stipulated in the jury room that all should sign such a petition. verdict, he says was formed on that condition. Foreman John J. Barry said: “My sympathies were with the poor girl all the time. I would have given ten years of my life to have had a dif- ferent verdict brought in, and I will sign a petition for her pardon if one is circulated among the jurors. “My decision was formed on the evi- dence alone, The thought that Execu- tive clemency might come later did not influence The sympathies of every juror wi ith poor Maria, but Re- corder Goff's charge aroused and judgment. ‘The ballots ricked up their ® i, ‘The first one was were four in numbe elght to four for a verdict of murder in the first degree, The second was ten to two, the third eleyen to one, and the last was unanimous.” Only Juror Cohen expressed regret because a verdict of murder in the sec- ond degree was not brought in.

Says the Premier Burned His Brother Alive. LONDON, July 22.—A despatch to The Times from Paris gives an interview, published by The Figaro, with a brother of Naoum Tufektchieff, who was ar- rested for complicity in the murder of Btambuloff, He said that his brother Naoum was @ close frined of Major Panitza, who had been executed by order of Stambuloff, but the associa- tion was purely one of friendship, and not of politics. When the Panitza plot was discov- ered, all who had been connected with Panitza were arrested, “Among them," the interview con- tinues, “was my youngest brother, Deutohs, aged seventeen, whom Btam- buloff thought he could force to reveal Naoum’'s supposed connection with the conspiracy, Deutchs was subjected to atrocious tortures for six months, Stambuloff employing all his ingenuity, and multiplying the most horrible tor. tures, until the executioners in his presence tore the nails from the hands and feet of my brother and committed acts yet more barbarou ‘The little fellow refused to accuse Naoum, and finaily, exasperated, he spat in Stambuloft’s face, crying: ‘Ty- rant, I acorn you.’ It was his 4 warrant, Stambuloff bathed him e and burned him alive in Oc- Tufektchieff concluded that neverthe- less neither Naoum nor himself was connected with the murder of Stambu- loff, which they deprecated as likely to |cause a reaction in his favor, while they hoped their brother would be avenged by the condemnation of Btam- buloft, A correspondent of The Standard at Carlsbad says that the conduct of | Prince Ferdinand since the murder of Stambuloff has caused much scandal “He tee! affects,” the correspond- ent writes, wayety which is simply revolting under the circumstances, #0 that the indignation of the public here threatens to find unmistakable expr sion He is reported already to have been hissed by @ crowd of Carlsbad vinitors, “People suy that they have seen the Prince displaying an unbecoming mer- | riment in the restaurants, and relating | Jocular anecdotes, and in the evening when the death of Stambuloff was ex- | he Was In a box at the theatre, hing at the gay scenes of Freytag's medy ‘Die Journalisten,’ SOFIA, July 2%.—The Government has been making secret Inquiries Into the | murder of ex-Premier Stambuloff, and as @ result it is claimed that the facts elicited show that the crime was an act, of private vengeance, —- — {ACH TRACK, ST.

Milwaukee Secon (Special to The Evening World) RACH TRACK, BRIGHTON BEACH, July %—The weather was scorching hot here to-day, but the regular Beach crowd was present. The card, as sent out on Saturday, was one of the largest of the season. The track, although drying out fast, was heavy neat to the rail and caused considerable scratching. Out of the seventy-one entries, thirty-one were scratched before the first race was run. Ex-Detective Mahoney, who has charge of the ring, made his little speech to the layers of odds, warning them about handling money and that the first one caught violating the rule would be ejected from the track. The horsemen in general at the track are displeased over the way the Asso- clation is treating them in regard to the entrance money, They claim that it shoud be divided between the second and third horses, but the Assuciation thinks otherwise, and keeps it.

HIGHLANDS OF NAVESINK, July 22,—Defender crossed the finish line in her race with Vigilant at 3.45.00 this afternoon, an easy winner, Vigilant's time at the mark was 3.54.48, These are unofficial records, but the difference between the yachts was fully ten minutes, As Vigilant crossed the starting line she ran up a protest flag. No one knows why this was done, It is supposed that the protest wa: signalled because in jockeying for pos! tion after the first gun Defender luffed quite sharply on Vigilant, compelling the latter to go about, If the yachts touched at all {t was not noticed by any persons not on board either boat, so far as could be learned, Immediately after the first gun both yachts began jockeying for position, but there was little to choose between them so far as seamanship waa con- cerned, A moment later the dinary most extraor- thing ever witnessed around here was seen. Within ten seconds and in a length and a half of herself Defender turned clear around to get to Vigilant, instead of attempting to turn shortly, swung aroundthe Cepheus and other boats. It seemed severral aimes as if the yachts would miss the mark and haye to come back again. When the gun was fired, De- fender let go her balloon jib and with a rush headed for the Mghtship. In doing #0 she crossed Vigilant’s bow, the latter final luMfng and losing several seconds in order to avoid a collision, As soon as Defender was over the line she was greeted with a chorus of | steam whistles from the entire fleet, which completely drowned out the sound of the little brass cannon cn Sylvia's ek announcing the finish, The putt of white smoke, however, was seen from the Highlands an@ the time was taken, Vigilant came up slowly. At 3.60 she was still a quarter ef a mile from the stakeboat, Vigilant drew up slowly, every min- ute seeming to add leagues te the ex- tent of Defender’s victory. HIGHLANDS OF NAVESINE, N.
