Christensen, member of the Commit- tee of 48 and Presidential nominee of ‘the Farmer-Labor Party, threw a hold-over meéeting of 48ers into con- fusion to-day when he suddenly ap- peared in tho’ hall. About, 200 of the original 1,200 dele- fates were present and half these sheered Christensen while tha re- mainder raised a counter shout of “La Follette.” Christensen asked permission to in- terrupt Gilbert M. Roe, personal rep- resentative of Senator La Follette, who was addressing the Forty-cight- ers, for a brief statement, as he had to catch a train. This was granted and Christensen sajd: “You “and | and the others wanted Senator La Follette, and if there is still any way to get him I'll not stand in the way. | must remain true to that loyal group of working men and women who nominated me, but | must tell you | hope we can all get to- gether, after all.” With that Christensen strode from the hall. He refused to explain fur- ther his statement that he would “not e@tand in the way” if the Forty- ‘eighters wanted La Foligtte.

DESTROYER GOLDSBOROUGH, July 15.—(By wireless.) 10 o'clock, two hoyrs before the start of the race for the America’s Cup, stray winds, mostly southwest, just ruffled the lower bay but did not ex- tend far off shore. Both the Resolute and Shamrock IV had their main sails hoisted and Resolute her club-topsail. The Regatta Committee tug, foliowed by a marking tug, passed dewn the main ship canal and out to sea.

Shamrock is keeping on'for the finish. (Special from Staff Correspondent of The Evening Werld.) SANDY HOOK, N, J., July 15.—Resolute defender of the Amer- ica’s Cup, parted her thrgnt halyards which support her mainsail while leading Shamrock IV. by about half a mile to the turning point in to-day’s race of the 1920 series. ‘Although her gaff slipped half way down her , mast, her skipper, Capt. Charles Francis Adams, kept on sailing. fi Resolute turned the outer mark at 2.52.54 and headed back for the finish, a run of 15 miles, with her two headsails drawing and her club topsail swinging helpless. Her crew meanwhile made eve» effort tov replace the broken rope. Shamrock made no effort to set her spinnaker, as both yachts headed for the finish, Capt.

The storm also brougit the danger of collisions, both ‘by the contusting yachts and ‘by the observation craft, Skipper Burton's judgment was re sponsible for a bad setback for Sharm" rock IV, at the very start of the race, when the Lipton yacht had to go back and recross the starting line for hav- ‘ing been across when the starting |signal was given. As a result Resolute led across the tartling line at 12.00.40 P. M. while Shamrock followed at 12.01.38 Sham~ rock was 200 yards astern the Amerl~ can defender when the Irish chale lenger followed over the starting line the second time. According to yachtsmen, Sham- rock's start to-day was the worst ever made by a Lipton boat in @ cup race. With the first race of the 1920 / series for the America’s oup started at noon the two yachts forged ahead on the starboan! tack carrying main- rails, stayrails, foresails and baby jib “BIG FISH” FORCED BACK TO ROCKAWAY Electric Storm Too Big a Handicap for Evening World Seaplane— Starts Out Again.
