NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—With all the
lines of her hull exposed to the public
gaze Valkyrie III, Lord Dunraven’s new
yacht, lies drydocked in Erie basin today.
A mighty throng of visitors gathered
about the sides of the dock, and as the
water sank lower and lower and steadily
revealed line after line of her hull to the
gaze of the yachting sharps gathered about .
what they saw caused them not only to
wonder, but also to take great hope.
‘ ‘The cup is safe, ” was the universal com-
ment heard when the Valkyrie’s bottom
stood fully revealed. i

those of the Defender. .«She bears no re-

GOTHENBERG, Neb., Aug. 22.—Union
Pacific train No. 8 was held up by masked
men near Brady Island at an early hour
today. The train was signaled and the
engineer and fireman held up with revolv-
ers. ‘ V
The robbersvflagged the train, and when
it stopped they cut off the engine and or-
dered the engineer to accompany them to
the express car. , He was ordered to open
the car with a crowbar, but he failed.
The robbers then exploded several dyna-
mite cartridges against the car door, blow-
ing it open and reducing the express mes-
senger to submission. The safe was also
blown open and its contents taken. It is
not known what booty was secured. The
robbers, when they took the engineer from'
his engine, left the fireman on board un-

board, and with the centerboard, accord-
ing to the views of these best qualified to
judge, by far too heavy. The Wideness of
her beam'was even more apparent in the
drydcck than when she was afloat.
She is both heavy and powerful. To be
gl'n at the beginning, her bow is quite
similar on the cut of its under line to that
of the Defender. It has the same gentle
rounded canoelike curve back as far as the g
. forefoot. Its top sides are, however, much
heavier and are cut away hardly at all.
The Defendcr’s forefoot runs down with
comparatively little slant, while that of
the Valkyrie has a decided backward an-
gle. It is in the bottom of her keel, how-
ever, ’that the Valkyrie ,_ shows the
greatest difierence from .any of the Amer-
ican sloops. ~ . ,
Instead of having a. keel the bottom 01
which is nearly a straight line. the Val-
kyrie's has a decided pitch. That is to
say, it almost continues the line of her
forefoot, the forward point being fully
three feet higher than the aft end.
A Rakish Stern.
Astern, her rudder post shows about the
same rake as that of the Defender, which
is not very great. Her aft overhang, on
the other hand, is much greater than that
of either the Defender or the Vigilant,
and the same is true of her forward ’over-
hang. Her bilge is greater than that of the
Defender, and apparently larger even than
that of the Vigilant. ,
From her rail down to a point not more
than five or six feet above the bottom of
her keel she is built of planks rubbed over
with lampblack.
The remaining lower section of her keel
is copper plated. In this she differs ma-
terially from the Valkyrie II, whose bot-
tom was plated all the way up to the 'top
of her keel.
' Her draft seems to be about the same as
that of the Defender, between 19 and 20
feet. Manifestly she was built for stability.
Her broad beam, her heavy bilge and
bows, and her immense overhang all go to
show that. But whether Designer Watson
has not made a mistake in accounting
those features the chief elements of stabil-
ity is a very doubtful question. The Vig-
ilant has wider beam, more bilge and
- more overhang than the Defender, but in
yesterday’s blow she did not stand up
nearly so well. The best yachtsmen have
‘ applauded.

and name him anyway. When this was

SPRINGFIELD, 0., Aug. 22.—The finan-

and the Republican party, state and Dan
tional, was censured.
ZELL A’S LATEST CHARGE.
Multimnlionaire George Gould Is New
Accused of Assault.
NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—-A new and par-
ticularly interesting twist to the Gould-
N icolaus case is about to take place.
Lawyer Alexander Simpson, Zella’s
counsel, said today that he intends either
to amend the declaration in the present
case so as to include a charge of assault
9 Must George Gould or to bring another
suit on that charge. l
The assault in question is alleged by!
Lawyer Simpson to have taken place in .
the early part of 1893, befdire Miss Nicolaus
departed so suddenly for Europe in com-
pany with Al Ruhman.
Mr. Simpson declined to state the exact
time or place of the assault. . ‘
The lawyer today notified Lawyer Lind-
abury, Mt Gould’s attorney of record in
New Jersey, that he would serve the par
pers in the new suit as soon as he had fin~
ished consulting the law on the subject.
Whether or not Mr. Gould will be ar-
rested on the new charge on his arrival ii:
this city from Europe Lawyer Simpson
declined to state definitely. Mr. Gould is
' on the Paris now onI his way to New York. .
This last move on the part of the fair
Zella has had the effect of agitating the
lawyers for the defense considerably.
The examination of a Dr. Schultz of
Indiana, one of the witnesses who will
testify in the trial. was set down for this
‘forenoon in the office of Lawyer Winslow
S. Pierce, at 195 Broadway. Mr: Pierce
is Mr. Gould’s confidential counsel in the
case. ‘
The greatest secrecy was maintained by
all concerned, and one of Mr. Gould’s
lawyers, D. D. Duncan, who has just re-
turned from the West in search of wit-
nesses, went so far as to deny to a reporter
that any proceedings in the case were to
be held today. ' .
Lawyers Pierce, Simpson, Lindabury an
Duncan waited an hour for the witness to
- Fireman Driscoll.
their work, which was not so thorough as
it would otherwise have been.
They undoubtedly overlooked much val-
uable express matter. Upon the arrival
of the fireman with the engine at this
point a posse was hastily organized to go
to 'the scene of the robbery.
The road agents had disappeared, how-
ever, and the train was brought into Goth-
enburg. p
Aside from scaring the passengers by
volleys of pistol shots no one on the train
was hurt or molested.
The passengers were not disturbed. The
officers who left this place, S dozen in
number. are in pursuit of the robbers, and
the bandits having but a short start it is
probable that they will be overtaken. The
robbers were undoubtedly working short
handed, otherwise they would not have
left the engine unguarded. The train was
delayed 3% hours. " _
"r The express messenger refused to make
any statementmfiec theex-tent of thereb-
bery. The posse which is in pursuit of
the robbers is well armed and thoroughly
acquainted with the country, and it is
considered certain that the bandits will be
captured or killed within the next 24
.- hours.
Another Train Held Up.
GRAND RAPIDS, Aug. 22.—The Chl-
cago and West Michigan passenger train
was held up by four robbers a mile
and a half south of New Richmond, Ind.
When the train reached a curve at this
point, it slowed up as usual, and as it did
a signal was swung for the train to stop.
Engineer George Zibbel reversed the lever,
applied the brakes and brought the train
to a standstill.
A moment later he and Fireman Mich-
ael Driscoll were covered with revolvers
by two men, ahd two other robbers pr0<
ceeded to the express car. Expressman
Bernard van Otten was ordered to open
the door. This he refused to do, and the
robbers began firing at the train, breaking
_ all the windows in the express car. Find-
ing Van Otten not easily scared, one of the
robbers forced the door.
The two robbers went in, and while
one covered the expressman the other put
dynamite to the safe, blowing the door
off. They got nothing, as it was an empty
safe being taken from Chicago to the com-
pany’s offices in this city. »
The robbers then proceeded to the pas-
senger car. firing as they went. Entering
the car, they held up Conductor E. E.-
Rice, taking his watch and $7 in cash.
While this was going on the other two
robbers went through Engineer Zibbel
