Proceedings to-day began with the qalling to the witness stand of John Dolan, and of the four walking de: gates of the Housesmiths’ and Bri , men's Union. He was asked by Law, Eustace, counsel for Parks, if ne was jm New York on the afternoon cf Dec. n ‘Wi isst, and replied that he was not. This was in contradiction of the tes- timony of Contractor Plenty, who testi- fled that Dolan was in a saloon in this eity that day when he and Parks talked } together. Plenty declared that Parks | ald: Dolan ‘must have his bit.” After Dolan had said he was not in Mew York on the day mentioned, Law- yer Eustace turned him over to Prose- eutor Rand for cross-exmination. Mr. Rand began by asking whether the strike on the Hambarg-American Dler in Hoboken was declared because Contractor Plenty was employing non- union men on the new pier. Dolan avoided answering. “Was that the reason of the strike?” @houted Mr. Rand. “They were doing new wopk," witness answered evasively. Despite the objections of the defense the Recorder allowed the question to be repeated.

Jeffries's answer to Munroe came asa big surprise to the local followers of |the pugilistic game. Immediately after his fight with Corbett mast Friday night the boller-maker stated that he was Willing to meet any heavyweight in the world, and that Munroe could have al fight at any time, Munroe immediately wired Jeffries, asking him to set a date for the battle, He received no reply until to-day, when Jeffries's wire came to hand offering to stop him in four rounds, The decision which Munroe received over Jeffries last winter in Butte, when the champion failed to stop the miner in four rounds, has been a very sore point witth Jeffries. He has always claimed that Munroe caught him out of condition, and that the miner would be easy picking for him in a regular battle. His wire of to-day certainly shows that Jeffries has the courage of his con- victions. 8,000 STARVING AFTER MASSACRE, Turks Destroy Krushevo and Kill Almost 400 Residents — Two Hundred Slain Near Monastir.

SIR THOMAS LIPTON SAYS HE IS STILL CONFIDENT. Does Not Consider that Shamrock III. Showed at Her Best Yesterday and Declares that Reliance Got What Little There Was in the Way of a Breeze. GOOD BREEZE PROMISED FOR TO-MORROW’S RACE, Forecaster Emery, at the Weather Bureau, to-day sent out @ special forecast for the vicinity of the yacht race course for to-morrow. He prophesies a good southerly breeze and clear skies. The special is as follows: “The weather Saturday over the international Yacht Race course will be fair to partly cloudy, with fresh southerly winds, probably shifting to southwesterly.” PREDICTS THAT DANGER a . HANGS OVER RELIANCE, Prof. Gustav Meyer, the Hoboken astrologist, has cast a hora scope of Reliance in accordance with the position of the stars at the hour and minute of her launching at Bristol on April 11. He says the stars foretell that Reliance will win. But there is a dark suggestion that some danger lies in wait for the defender, either in the nature of fire or otherwise, from some hidden enemy. Odds on Reliance changed to-day from 2 to 1 to from 2 1-2 to 4 to 3to 1. There was very little Shamrock money around in the Wall street district. ‘ Several small bets were made at 3 to 1. The promise of a spanking breeze for the contest to-morrow has aroused interest, and a race is booked for that will settle as far as possible z” the points now in dispute. There was some vetting of 3 race. JURY OF EXPERTS FAVOR RELIANCE. A jury of twelve of the most noted yachting experts has decided that Reliance has clearly showed herself to be a faster boat than Shame rock III, The following are the opinions they offer: W. G. Kirby, Yachting World, London—I must own to being deeply disappointed in the showing which Shamrock made yesterday against Re- 1 was firmly of the opinion that in Shamrock IIL, we had at last got to 2 thal Shamrock would not win one liance. weather conditions as prevailed in the early part of the racing, namely, a smooth sea and a light breeze. It made no difference to the American boat, blow high, blow low, she was always looking right up into the wind’s eye and leaving Shamrock further off down to leeward.” John R. Spears—The day's work was not a race, but it was a conclusive light-air test and Rellance proved to be much the better boat. Capt. Charlie Barr—The Shamrock III, never reached the outer mark, We did and passed her on the way home. That is all I care to say about the race, DESIGNER HERRESHOFF CONFIDENT, Designer “Nat” Herreshoff—The action of the Reliance yesterday showed nothing that was unexpected. We had formed our opinion and we were not disappointed, : Capt. “Hank” Haff—It is the surest thing on earth that Shamrock II, is not in the same class with Reliance when it comes to drifting. The cup is perfectly safe, but there will be some keen racing before the contest p.| is settled, Thomas Fieming Day, editor of the Rudder—The abortive race was chiefly remarkable as an exhibition of Capt. Barr's mastery of the art of « yacht sailing, His work was flawless, and much of Rellance's gain wag undoubtedly due to his skill and intelligence, as well as to the extra 2,000 feet of canvas. As usual, the leading boat got all the favors, and Reliance was not becalmed at any time as badly as the challenger. CASPAR WHITNEY FAVORS RELIANCE. Casper Whitney, ec! tor of Outing—Herreshoff bas again put-forth @ racer incomparable. Wi.h luck shared equally ReHance must win on alh points of sailing—blow bigh or blow low, C. Oliver Iselin, managing owner of Rellance—When we were sailing. we were beating Shamrock, My confidence in Reliance is unshaken, Rear-Admiral Sigsbee—The superiority of the American yacht was; ent. : fs Commotore Moleson, Royal St. Lawrence Yacht Club—While the wind was fluky and not the kind of wind to judge a yacht by, yet it ig” quite clear the Reliance outclasses the Shamrock. . Commodore Z. A. Woodward, Detroit Yacht Club—It seems to me that: pected to see a much faster challenger. Shamrock cannot even ente our boat unless she can do better than she did to-day, H. P.
