The mystery surrounding the disap-
pearance of John Hines was cleared
up this morning by the ii ding of his
body in Norwalk bar near the
Washington street carr e bridge.

The body was found by Thomas Ho-
gan. Last night Hogan, with Thomas
McGinnis and M. Grifiin, all of South
Norwalk. were on John H. lv‘erris'
wharf at the foot of Washington street,
when Griffin dropped a handful of
change. Some of the money slipped
through the space between the plank-
ing of the dock, and fell into the wa-
ter. While the tide was out, early this
morning, Hogan tried to recover the
money. He was walking under the

 
 
 
 
 

’ dock, n he happened to glance out
upon water, and saw, just at the
corn the wharf. an object floating
on urface. 0n closer scrutiny Ho-
g , nd it to be the body of a man.

/I He rded steamer Falcon. which was

tied up to the dock, and notified the
engineer, Frederick Anderson, of his
discovery. They pushed the bow of the
steamer out into the stream, and An-
' .derson caught the clothing with a boat
hook, and it was pulled ashore.

It was then seen that the dead man
was Mr. Hines. When found. the coat
he wore was partly over the head, and
was covered with mud. At 6:15 o'clock
Radical Examiner Huntington was no-
tified. He came to South Norwalk,
made an examination of the body, and
gave permission for its removal.

The sloop Betty, which came in here
a few days ago. was moored all day
yesterday near the spot where Mr.
Hines’ body was found. She went out
sometime last night, and it is pre-
sumed that the body was under the
boat. This is probably the reason it
was not recovered yesterday. as men
were at work all day dragging the bar—
bor in hopes of getting some trace of
the missing man.

The general opinion of the ofiicials
and others is that Mr. Hines met death
accidentally. He was known to have
been in Michael Lane's West Shore
lnn, Saturday night, at 9 o'clock. and
left the place by way of the back door.
saying that he was going home. ,This
was the last seen of him alive. He pro-
bably wandered to the steamboat
wharf or E. M. Toiies & Company's
dock, and fell overboard.

It was reported at the Norwalk end
of town, late yesterday afternoon. that
Mr. Hines’ body had been found in the
river. Such a report reached Medical
Examiner Huntington, who telephoned
to South Norwalk, inquiring If it was
true. Other inquiries quickly follow,
ed, and newspaper men and others has-
tened to the water front, only to learn
that the report was unfounded.

Mr. Hines' family, still clinging to
the theory that he had fallen off one of
the docks and been drowned, secured
permission from some of the dock own-
ers. yesterday afternoon, to use dyna-
mite in the river as a means of fioat-
ing the body if it was in the water.
This experiment was to be tried today.

Outside of the family many people
felt sanguine that Mr. Hines would
eventually turn up all right. This be-
lief was frequently expressed yesterday
while the river was being dragged.
They said Hr. Hines had been away
before without notifying his family.
and that this time he was only pro-
longing his stay beyond the usual lim-

it.
Ir. Hines was one of the most wide-

ly known men in South horwalk. He ‘

was for many years superintendent for
E. A. Woodward. and had charge of
the istter's large property until a few
years ago. when he went into the cart-
ing business. For the past few years
he had been employed in the street
department of the City of South Nor-
walh. He leaves a widow, one daugh-
ter, Hrs. Thomas Warren. of New York
and two sons.

Ir. Hines was born in Belfast, ire-
Iaaui. about fifty-five years ago, and
ensue to this country when a boy.

The theory of foul pay is exploded
by the statement of the medical ex-
aminer that there was no mark of vice
lease. on the body. and in the pockets
of the clotth was found Ill. suppos~
ad to be all the money llr. Hines and
with him at the time he met his death.

WEEDS” A SECOND Till.

Church Core-any Iv‘ allows t'iyil Contract
s loath Later.

Last evening. at 7, at the parsonage
of St. Augustine’s. Bridgeport, the rec-
tor. Father Cremin, united in marriage
John Edward Phelan and Miss Alice
May Hawley, both of that city. The
ceremony was witnessed by only the
immediate relatives of the contracting
parties, as the bride, being a Protest-
ant, cannot approach the hymenial al-
ter in open church.

The marriage was the second in
which the parties have figured, for tth
couple sloped to New Rochelle. early

last month. and were there made man
and wife by a justice of the peace. The
civil contract is not recognized by the
Catholic church unless preceded or sup-
plemented by the matrimonial rite of
the church. The young folks would
not have gone to the trouble of an
eiopement were it not for their appre—
hension that the bride's mother WOUTI'I
not consent to her daughter's union to
a Catholic, and by a minister of the
Catholic church. Having succeeded.
however, in becoming one according to
the civil rite, which is held by thh state
as sacred as a church marriage.
preparations were immediately begun
for the aolemnlzation of the union by
the church.

The match was a love affair. pure
and simple. it was clearly apparent.
in conversation with the young people.
that personal objections would not re-
sult in keeping them apart. The bride
was equally desirous that there should
be a church wearing, so having obtain-
ed the consent of her mother, prepara—
tions for the ceremony were begun.

New York, October 6~The wind at
Sandy Hook. inside which the Colum-
bin and the Shamrock and their ten-
ders were anchored, was glowing twen-
ty-three miles an hour this forcnoon
and seemed likely to increase. The.
fog was thick and a heavy rain was
falling. Tho racers were taken furth-
er up the bay about 10 o'clock to a
more secure anchorage.

The Weather bureau announced to-
day that there would probably be a
spanking breeze tomorrow in which to
pull off the first race. In this connec-
tion it may be noted that rain of the
character of that prevailing today in
this vicinity, has invariably been fol—
lowed by strong winds.

A statement regarding tomorrow's
contest was posted in the New York
Yacht Club today. it read: “The
same vacIv will be tried again Sutur-
day, the agreement tween the lioynl

The Hip for which the Columbia and
he Shamrock are sailing for was
brought to this country by the yacht
America in 18.31. The cup is a silver
trophy and was offered by the Royal
Yacht Squadron each year, to be sailed
II)!‘ by yachts of all nations. «There
was no restriction upon the competing
-aivhts. They might be of any size or
my rig, and the cup was to be won by
tho yacht that cow-red the course in

the shortest actual time. The cup was
not of any great value, and American
yachtsmen never heard of it until it
was won by America. Today. now-
over. it. is the most eagerly sought tro—
phy in the yachting world.

When America was sent to the
World's Fair in [Sin as representative
of what Yankee yacht builders could
do the New York Yacht Club was an
infant of six years. The course was
around the isle of Wight, and fifteen
yachts flying the Britisn flag were en-
tered. Four of the yachts were larger
than America. America won the race,
finishing twenty—four minutes ahead of
Aurora, her nearest competitor. Arn-
PI'TE‘a was cock-of—th-walk that year in
liritish waters and could find no yachts
to compete with her. The America‘s
cap, as it has since seen called was
later presented to the New York Yacht
(‘Iub as a perpetual challenge cup for
competition between foreign countries.

it was not until 1570 that there was
1 challenger for the cup. On August
8. of that year. James Ashbury's
schooner. Cambria, sailed against a
fleet of American schooners and was
defeated by many of them. Magic won
the race. defeating Cambria by more
than thirty-nine minutes. the exact
Iinic being 39 minutes. twelve seconds.
The following year Mr. Ashbury again
challenged his schooner Livonia, corn-
vaiing in seven races against yachts
vrviI-cted by the Americans in the morn-
ing of each race. The schooner Cot-
urrbia won the first and second races
while the chaicnging yacht won the
third. Columbia carried away the
stocrarre gear and was defeated by more
than eleven minutes. Schooner osp-

Then came ,e first of the great

Next came the Dunravr-n yacht Val-
