The tank which exploded was one of

which was undergoing its periodi l

in the morning. Kirch and Myer en'-
tered through the manhole without
taking the precaution of having ropes
tied about them. They were immedi-
ately overcome by the fumes. Fore—
man Newman started down after them.
and he, too, collapsed in the tank.
Nicholas Miller, now a gr0cer. who had
once been foreman of the works, as-
sumed charge of the rescue.

Men began with chisels to cut a large

Shortly before it 1o 'oloclt. Sir Thomas
Union.- with Mr Jamuenrend Mr. Wat-
son. went on board the Shamrock. Be~‘
fore leaving that Eric. Sir Thomas said
to an Associated Press representative:
"While yesterday's race was not at all
a fair test of the Shamrock’s speed, I
was very well satisfied with what she
did. What We want is a: good, strong
breeze from the northwest or any other
quarter for that matter. but plenty of
it. and then I’ to sure the Shamrock will
give a good account of herself. We are
very well pleased at the manner in

Captain Sycamore and his crew are
overhauling the Shamrock sails this
morning. They hoisted the lib about
10: 30 and the staysail itself half an
hour later, to dry them out and stretch
them. 1

From an authentic source it was
learned today; that there is a very
strong protest on the part of Captain
Sycamore and those in charge of the
Shamrock at what they term crowding
of the Shamrock. at the start yester-
day, by Captain Barr. 1 "if he is going
to continue those tactics there will be
seriousatrouble." said the writer's in-
formant. "What do did yesterday

SIR THOMAS HOPEFUL.

LONDON. September 27~Sir Thom
as Lipton, this morning cabled to his
friends here: “Am very hopeful"; but
the feeling is not reflected by public
opinion which foresees defeat for the
Shamrock ii. in her races with the
Columbia for the America's Cup. The
afternoon newspapers similarly derive
scantcomfort from the stories of yes
lerday‘s contest. As the St. James Ga
zette points out. in spite of all sug
gestions that the conditions prevent
accurate judgment of the comparative
merit of the two yachts. “the plain
fact stands out that under a condition
of weather which was the same to
both the American got a good bit near
or the winning line then our own."

The Pall Mall Colette is practically
alone. in thinking that the American
experts are easily satisfied if they are
already convinced that the Columbia
is the better boat. The paper's com
ment is probably based on the conclu-
sion of its own correspondents long
account of the race which comments:
"The Columbia did much to shatter
the Lipton hope yesterday." and con-
cludes: “The day’s sailing did noth-
ing to suggest that the Shamrock will
not win in a good breeze. i think she
will.”

There is a Daubury mere—ant who has
had this adage impressed on his mind
in a forcible mander, for his neglect to

The merchant was in New York,
Tuesday, and, with three other Dan
bury business men,' left on the train de
parting from New York at 6 p. 111. As
far as South Norwalk, where they had
to change cars, the quartette passed
the time away playing penochie.

Attorney John Keogh, of South .Nor—
walk. guys a statement of the condi-
tions which existed when the prize fight
low was passed, and the fights as they

are carried on at the present time. He ‘

called attention to the fact that when
the fight was stopped by DGDuty Sheriff
FitzRoy. the boxers were using five
ounce gloves. as permitted by the Hor-
ton law. in New York. they were in a
24-foot ring, in a hell. no blood was
spilled, there were no knockdowns and
no one was injured.

He said: "That law which forbids
prize lighting was passed in 1847. and
there has been no amendment nor
change made in it from the time it was
passed to the present day. The condi-
