H “At present 1 am actually wavering between the two theories.” Young Mr. Bliss spoke reluctantly and stopped at this point, when the ui oe porter asked him: ' “1¢ your mother was not intentlonally | poisoned, what Is your theory as to the cause of her death?" “I said there is @ possibility, even a probabilit and that is this; Suppose, for instance, that the chowder was brought to my mother, ef which fact there is no doubt, We all know that in many families poisons arg used for! domestic purposes, Suppose there was some poison in the bottom of that pitcher, into which the chowder was poured, Although my mother @as al- ways very careful, and I felt as though T could trust ber at all times, she may been flurried on that day, Bhe a nervous woman and not very trong physical Mind you, now, I am only stating this as a probability.” Mr. Bliss wished to correct the public statement that he did not attend nia mother's funeral.

The English Vessel’s Water-Line Length Said by Mr Kersey to Be 89.60 Feet, LESS THAN WAS SUPPOSED. Defender's Probable Allowance, Ac- cording to Estimates, Reduced by This Statement. Measurer John Hyslop, the New York Yacht Club, finished his measure- ments of Valkyrie in Basin at 1.10 o'clock this afternoon, after spending an hour with tape-line and batten secur ing the various dimensions which go to make up her racing length. Then he tackled Defender, which had come down in tow and lay side by #lde with her English rival in the still water of Erle Basin, Designers Watson and Herreshoff accompanied Mr. Hyslop and critically watched his work on both ves- sels, After being measured, Valkyrie was towed out into the channel and down the bay, Lord Dunraven, Maltand Kersey and Arthur Glennie did not go on board, but remained on the tender, City of Bridgeport, awaiting the offi- elal verdict which should decide which of the two racers ts to be handicapped and the extent of her penalty. An “Evening World” reporter sought to obtain the dimensions from authori ta tive sources, but had to be content for the time with the bare statement, made by Mr, Kersey, that her water length was 8900, This is less than any estimates that had been made, and reduces the ealeu Jations and summaries that have been figured by the sharps materially On this basis, estimating Valkyrie’s sall area at 12.50 square feet, appa enuy her racing length would be 100 and her allowance to Defender probably less than 30 xeconds, Of course, this was mere speculation, ax Defenders might show less than were the closest guesswork t dulged tn.
