Everything Points to a Successful Re-
gatta. at Henley.

THE AMBRICANS’ CHANCES.

English Authorities Seem to Think That
Victory Will Go to Leander or New
college and That McDowell
‘ Is Really Outclasscd.

LoNDON, July 3. -—The Daily News’ Hen.
ley correspondent says: “Never was the
prospect fog a successful Henley brighter.
Additional interest is found. in the pres-
ence of the Yale crew, who are sufficient-
ly formidable to excite consider ble appre-
hension in the breasts of Englis oarsmen.
The Americans who are over to see their
compatriots row and who like to take their
pleasure comfortably have proved a small

gold mine to the owners of houseboats

and launches. Those who have had expe-
rience of American college cries, and of

the Yale cry in particular, will know what-

to expect when the university races on
Tuesday.

“Unless Trinity Hall improves rapidly
the struggle Will be between Leander, Yale
and New College. Of these Leander seems
to have the best chance. But they labor
under one great disadvantage. The Yale

crew has been trained and coached to row.

in one race each day, and to that they
have given their sole attention. Leander,
on the other hand, will have the same men
in their eight as are contesting in other
races. However exceptional the physique
of an oarsman, he must feel so terrible a
strain. Many of the Leanders realize this,
and it is reported that the Stewards’ cup
four may be. taken off. New College is in
somewhat the same position as the Yale
crew, upon which so much interest cen—
tors.”

The Sportsman’ s Henley letter says:
“At present the Grand Challenge- cup
looks at the mercy of either New College
or Leander, and I fancy them in the order
written. Yale would look most formidable
rivals, but the Yankees have handicapped
themselves terribly through trying the im-
possible task of picking up an entirely
new style of rowing in a fortnight.”

McDowell. Chances.

“From Dr. McDowell’s style, ” says The
Sportsman’s correspondent, “one would
not take him to be a stayer, but I hear
that he fancies his chance for the Diamond
sculls immensely. Many difierent tales
are afloat concerning his capabilities.
N inc-tenths of the Americans here assert
that he only won the championship by ac-

I~cident, as two better men were a long way
ahead when they collided. Another, who
ought to be quite as reliable, asserts that
McDOWell beat the mile and a half Amer-
ican record by 20 seconds. This is a
mighty tall order, and judging from what
he has shown here ufio the present, Mc-

ad niuch of 1!. rec-

ord to lower. In the afternoon we got a

fine comparison between Yale and New

Yale pulled in fine form, rowing

‘fairly long and with great power. On
paper their performance appears better
than that of New college; but, as a mat-
ter of fact, the latter was faster by fully a
second, as they started with the nose of
their boat on the post, whereas Yale was
stern on when the word was given.”

HENLEY-ON-THAMES, July 2.—All the
preparations for the garden party tendered
by the Yale crew to their friends, includ-
ing all the crews entered for the Grand
Challenge cup, were completed last night,
and the finishing touches Were put to the
grounds of the American headquarters,
Marsh Mill House, during the morning.
But the oarsmen Were out .during the
morning for practice, as the pleasure of

the afternoon was not allowed to interfere,

with the business of the day. The weather
was cloudy, and there was but little wind.
The garden party was a huge success.

Alleged Counter-tellers Arrested.

ST. LOUIS, July 3.—At 1521 Pendleton
avenue, the house of Dr. Matilda Adella
Walter. United States secret service detect-
ives, who for weeks have been working on
the case, arrested a gang of five counterfeit-

good charcaters are Dr. Walter, a regular
practicing female physician; Ralph and
Walter Creese. professional photographers;
W. H. Jemmet-t, Dr. Walter’s father and
Adam Miller, a fine appearing, elderly
man.

The Diphtheria Serum.

WASHINGTON, July 3.—Thomas Moore,
United States commercial agent at Wei-
mar, has transmitted to the state depart-
ment statistics to prove the value of the
serum treatment of diphtheria. In one
hospital he shows that, while the number of
cases of diphtheria had steadily increased,
and the percentage of deaths had kept pace
until the introduction of the serum during
the two years in which the treatment has
been follovved, the mortality has fallen
away greatly.

Peace at Brown Hoisting Works.

CLEVELAND, July 8.--Everything is
quiet around the Brown Hoisting works,
the scene of the riot. A large number of
police are on guard around the plant. It
is believed, however, that trouble may
again occur when the nonunion men start
to leave the works, when an enormous
crowd of workingmen will undoubtedly
gather.

'T'EE BERMUDA EPISODE.

Disagreement of the Jury In the Trial of
the Alleged Filibusters.

NEW YORK, July 3. —The jury in the
case of the alleged filibusters John D.
Hart, John O’ Brien, Edward Murphy and
Colonel Emilio Nunez, who were charged

with violating the neutrality law of the

United States by aiding and abetting an
expedition to Cuba on the steamship Ber-
muda, announced their inability to agree
before Judge Brown in the United States
circuit court today and were discharged.
It is said that the jury stood eight to four
for acquittal, but this could not be con-
firmed. The result was received with
evident manufestations of relief by a large
number of Cuban sympathizers who filled
the courtroom.

United States District Attorney Macfar-
lane, after expressing his disappointment,
made a long argument about the defend-
ants’ bail bonds. He said the men would
probably be tried again, if the witnesses
could be brought together, and he asked
that the defendants be kept under bonds
until the October term of the court. Coun-
sel for the defense then asked for a reduc-
tion of ball, but only in the case of the
mate Murphy was this granted. His ball
was reduced to $500, but that of the others
was maintained at $2, 500. More than a
ddzen witnesses who had been detained in
Ludlow Street jail during the trial were
discharged.

ROBBERY BY HIGHWAYMEN.

The Fate That Befell Lawyer Patterson on '

a Lonely Jersey Road.

Asnuar PARK; July 3.—Lawyer Samuel
A. Patterson, township counselor of As-
bury Park, was held up and robbed by
two highwaymen on Deal lake bridge.
Mr. Patterson occupies a cottage at Dar~
lington for the summer. As he was cross-
ing the Main street bridge on his way
home he was met by two men, who laid
violent hands on him and threatened to
blow his brains out if he made any resist-
ance. It was very dark, and there was no
he'lglin sight.

e men overpowered Mr. Patterson,
tied his hands behind him with a stout
cord, and, passing the cord around the rail-
ing of the bridge, searched his pockets for
valuables. They took all Patterson’s mon-
ey, his goldwatch and chain and diamond
ring. Then they made off in the dark-
ness before he could‘ release himself.

PatterSon hurried back down town as
soon as he could work his hands loose and
notified Chief of Police Smith. He de-
scribed his assailants as a negro and a
white man. The negro was nearly six feet
tall.

Borough Detective Van Leer went out
on a search for the highwaymen, but up
to a late hour he had obtained no definite
clew.

It Is Said That She Has Told Japan Sho
Must Get Out of Formosa.

VANCOUVER, B. 0., July 3. —The fol-
lowing oriental advices were received here
by the steamship Empress of China:

“The Nippon Yusen Kaisha, the largest
steamship company of Japan, recently de-
cided to increase its capital from 8,000,000
to 10, 000, 000 yen. It is proposed to extend

existing lines and to open new ones.
Among the latter the first will probably
be across the Pacific to Puget sound Mr.
Iwanga was delegated by the company to

Northern railway, Seattle to be the Amer-
ican terminus of the new transpacific line.
Mr. Iwanga came over on the China, and
after transacting his business at Seattle
will visit New York and the cotton dis-
tricts in the south.

”The Hongkong Telegraph has pub-
lished the startling telegram that Russia

‘has intimated to Japan .that she must
withdraw from Formosa. Whether this be
true or not, it is a remarkable fact that
Russia has massed at Vladivostok a strong
fleet and 100,000 men and vast stores of
war material. England is recalling her in-
ferior war vessels from the orient and re-
placing them with stronger ones, but
nevertheless is now spoken of as the third
naval power in the far east, Russia being
the first and the second being left un-
named. Russia’s course is alluded to sar-
castically in the Japanese press as a splen-
did policy of aggression.

”The Eastern World says that Russia
has practically turned Japan out of Korea
and publishes a long article under the

‘ heading of‘ It Is Political Hypnotlsm,’ de-
claring that anything short of hypnotlsm
cf the most powarful order absolutely fails
to explain why all the world stands with
folded hands and in helpless apathy watch-
Ing the deyelopment of the gigantic plans
of Russia for the dominion of the east.
The guard of sailors at the Russian lega-
tiop in Korea has just been relieved by a
detachment of 80 Russian infantry.
Twenty cavalry and artillery officers en-
tered the town with the infantry. It is re-
ported that Russia has built a fort on
Getsu Fito island and that a gun is
mounted upon the Russian legation point-
ed toward the Japanese consulate. This
makes the , ignorant Koreans afraid of
Russia and contemptuous of Japan.

“Lieutenant Thurston of the United
States cruiser Detroit died of typhoid fever
at the American naval hospital, Yokoha-

Postmaster to Be Prosecuted.

WASHINGTON, July 3.—Thc recent sum-
.mary removal of Postmaster Samuel A.
Laning at Bridgeton, N. J., for violating
the federal civil service laws will be fol-
lowed immediately by criminal prosecu-
tion. It was alleged that Laning gave
secret Information in a I. ivil service exam-
ination to a competito or a place in the
postoffice, and that in response to his so-
licitation several letter carriers made con-
tributions for political purpéses during
the campaignof 1894.

Richmond’s Big Day.

RICHMOND, July 3.——Never before in its
history, not even upon the occasion of the

today 1:: witness the laying of the corner-
stone 01‘ the monument to the memory of
Jeflersm Davis. Twelve thousand Con-
federate veterans were here. It‘was the
last day of the sixth annual reunion of the
United Confederate Veterans" association.

Gentry May Escape Hanging.

PHILADELPHIA, July 3.—-It is possible
that James B. Gentry, convicted of the
murder of Madge Yorke, the actress, may
not be hanged for the crime. He has re-
cently gone into a decline, and his condi-
tion is serious. Since his conviction Gen-
try has been in Moyamensing prison. He
has declined so rapidly that at times it is
with the greatest difficulty that he can
rise from his cot. He does not sleep and
cats but little.

A Fall of Five Stories.

NEW YORK, July 3.—James Ramsey
went to sleep on the roof of 521 West
Twenty-eighth street, and, in tossing
about, rolled over the cornice and fell five
stories to the yard. Fortunately a lot of
old mattresses and bedding had been
thrown there, and he landed squarely upon
them. An ambulance was sent for, and
Ramsey was taken to Beilevue hospital
suffering from internal injuries.

The New England Cotton Mills.
BOSTON, July 3.——Tbus far '1'. Jefferson
. Coolidge, treasurer of the Amoskeag cor-
poration of Manchester, N. H., has de-
clined to enter into the arrangement for
the curtailing of the textile product re-
cently proposed by the Arkwright club.
The mills of this corporation have for
some time been running on short time.

The Policy of Germany.

WILBELMSHAVEN, July 3.-—At the ban-
quet which followed'tbe launching of the
new German warship Kaiser Friedrich III

tion. Williams was slightly demented.
