THE YACHTS ENCOUNTER A CALM

Tito Contest FaiU Because of Light Winds A Great Crowd Disappointed Will Make Ailother Trial*

WIND F4JI.ED THEM.

NEW YORK, Oct. 0.—Baffled by light winds, the yachts Vigilant and Valkyrie, which started Thursday on the first of the international races for the America's cup, were compelled to abandon the contest. 11 was just 5:10 o'clock in tlu: afternoon when a tug took the Valkyrie in tow, and the dismal tooting of the whistles announced the failure of the day's sport. The English cutter WHS then a mile in advance of the Vigilant, and the point foi' which they hod started almost six hours before was yet miles away.

Keen Disappointment.

It was a keen disappointment to the thousands who had stooil by the rails and clung to the vantage ground on board the steamers all day. The overpowering attraction of the big race between the English and American prize winners drew the biggest flotilla that ever sailed to Sandy Hook to see a yacht race. Every boat was crowded, too. Not one aboard had thought for other than the outcome of the first contest of the ships, for in that result they felt that they could foreshadow the remaining contests.

A long stream of craft from the iron steamer to the lowboat swept past the battery and down through the narrows almost from daybreak.

Ulven :t Ftilr Sturt.

The wind was close to due northeast at the start and the regatta committee, of the New York Yacht club, who had charge of the race decided that the boats should start leeward for the first 15 miles and return to windward. When the preparatory gun was iired from Commodore Morgan's flagship, May, the Valkyrie found a position under the Vigilant's lee quarter. Both boats then headed to the line.

Two

I\1M»5s

Out.

Just before 'lie line was passed the Vigilant dropped her spinnaker boom to starboard and hung up her big side sail in a jilVy. The English boat was about six lengths behind on the lee quarter and succeeded in setting her spinnaker in only about two seconds less time than did the American boat. When 'J miles out the center boarder had gaineil at least a half minute in time apparently. The Valkyrie's iib topsail was drawing very poorly, while the Vigilant was doing good work. There was not wind enough lo balloon out any sail on either vessel, but such as there was helped the American bout more than the Englishman.

Caught by a Culm.

During these first 2 miles the breeze freshened up a bit. The sky had eleared and there were some little black clouds over in the oast that seemed to betoken wind, and everjbody hoped it would bring it. Their hopes were not realized. .Scarcely had the spurt made itself known before It died out and left less air than had originally been present. From then the boats entered into a drifting match.

A Slight Breeze.

The wind began to haul to the south, and before they knew it there was a south-southwest breeze, If It could be dignified by the name of breeze, and the yachts had to make a tack to reach the outer buoy. In this work the Vigilant gained no little on the Valkyrie, but it was plain that the chase was a hopeless one. in the light air prevailing The Valkyrie went down to the mark on the signal starboard look and rounded it amid the wild shrieklngs of the hundreds of steam whistles that made a semicircle on the sides and bulow the buoy.

Greeted with ChoorH.

It was twenty-six minutes after this that the Vigilant made her turn, and she had to make an extra tack in order to weather the buoy. Although apparently defeated in the first ruee of the series, the American boat was greeted with even a greater clamor than had been heard when the Valkyrie went around. The American was a mile behind. tVlll Try Again.

When about half the homeward journey had been completed Lord Dunraven. who was on his own boat, hailed a tug. asked for a tow line and was brought back to the bay under steam power. Almost simultaneously with the earl's action did Mr. Iselin on the Vigilant determine to do the same thing. Another attempt will be made Saturday.

The instrument conveying tlio cup to the club Is known as t'ho first deed of gift On Ati^iist 8, 1870, the Kn(?ilsh schooner yacht Cambria rftcod for the cup against licet of sohooncrs representing the Now York Yacht club und was defeated, the schooner Magic winning.

II and 12, 1S76, the Canadian schooneryaclit Countess of Dufterln sailed for the cup and was defeated by the schooner-yacht Madeline. The next race for the cup was in November, 1881, when the American sloop Mischief dereatnt the Canadian sloop Atalanta. in lf-8i the New York Yacht club returned the cup lo George L. Schuyler, the only survivor of the original donors, that he might give it back to the club under new conditions Mr. Schuyler made a second deed of Rift, which provided that the challenging boat should belong to some recognised foreign yacht (Stub having an annual regatta over an ocean yacht course, the competitor to be of not leal than thirty or more than aoo tons register, and to sail on its own bottom to the port where tbe contest took plaoc. In September. 1886, the English cutter Gcnosta came over and sailed for the cup and was beaten by the sloop Puritan. In September, 188d, tlio cutler Gulaiea, representing the Koy-

al Northern Yacht club, was defeated by the American yacht Mayflower. In .September, 1887, the cutter Thistle of the Royal Clyde Yaoht club was dereated by the Volunteer. The cup was then again returned to Mr. Schuyler, who restored to the club under a third ''..-ell of gift, the "dimension clause" of which requires that a foreign yaeht intending to c,mpete for the cup shall challenge ten months uefore the proposed races afid shall give with the challenge the length on load water line, beam at load water-line extremo beam and draught of water these dimensions not to be exceeded

Then came the challenge from the Valkyrie and after a long and tiresome correspondence the conditions were slightly changed and tlie match arranged.

BIMETALLISTS ADJOURN.

Delegates Decide Not to Ilemove tlie Capitol from Washington. St. Louis, Oct. 8.—The delegates to the I'an-American bimetallic convention were called to order Thursday morning by Secretary Newall. Gen. A. O. Fisk was chosen presiding officer. Gov. Tillman, from the committee on resolutions, to which was referred the resolution calling for the removal of the United States capitol from Washington, recommended the rejection of the resolution. J. B. Follett, of St. Louis, moved the adoption of the majority report of the committee on resolutions. Delegate Watcrbury, of Kansas, moved as an amendment to add the minority- report of H. Taylor, of Minnesota, for the coinage of land values equally with bullion values.

The speechmaking of the day was started by State Senator Cock ran, of St. Joseph, Mo., and consisted mainly of a tirade against the administration and the bankers. In response to loud cries Gov. Tillman took the floor to explain why the committee on resolutions had not taken up the land currency scheme. He said he did not believe the convention would do itself auy good by advocating land currency or any subtreisury scheme. Gov. Waite, of Colorado, then spoke agninst the propriety of introducing a land currency resolution in a bimetallic convention. Following Gov. Waite a number of short addresses were made. The minority resolutions were withdrawn and the majority adopted, and the convention then adjourned.

Ja.mkiko, Oct 6.—The bom

A flyiug shell killed a subject of Great Britain while he was standing at a window in his hotel.

Since President Peixoto has mounted new guns and made preparations to return the fire of the rebel vessels the commanders of the foreign men-of-war are undecided as to whether or not they would be justified in stopping the bombardment, and are awaiting more precise instructions from their respective governments.

New Oki.kans, Oct 0.—The latest summitry of the loss of life by the great Louisiana storm makes the"total a.078. There is still some doubt as to the loss at Chenerie (.'amiwla. There were 1 survivors. The number of deaths will depend on the population of the island at the time of the stonn. This is generally sup posed to have been l.iirto, but Assessor Long, of Jefferson, whose duty it is to make an enumeration of the population, declares that thr total was 1,470. The number of lost in that place will run from

!.'JIH

to 1,47-). Nearly every

portion of the region traversed by the storm has been visited. Five relief boats went into the storm district with provisions, clothing, etc. Some aOO of the survivors were brought to New Orleans, all nearly naked and badly battered and bruised. Only one, however, will d.c. The boats also brought up 12i bo.lii for burial, as there was no place in which they could be buried in Bayou Cook. ili'uvy l.on* to the Shipping,

The nuws rereive'i Thursday showed that the di'stnu'tiou of shipping in Mississippi sound and of]' Chandeleur islands was much larger than at first thought and accompanied by considerable loss of life. The deaths reported from vessels already number ITS and the total may be iuereased fifty more when the fate of those on missing vessels is known. All but throe of the vessels at Chandeleur, all but two at Biloxi and all but two at Seranton were either sunk or beached. The loss numbers two steamers, eleven barks, two bnrUeruinos two sloops, live brigs and twonty-eij*ht schooners. The liiloxl fishing fleet was fishing oysters in the Louisiana reefs wheu tlie storm came on. The vessels have not since been heard from and it is feared that there has been some loss of life aboard them. The fishing Meet west of the Mississippi, consisting of twelve schooners and lugirers, has been destroyed, with tlie exception of some eight or ten vessels, and it will be months before the Louisiana fisheries revive from the shock. As it is both oysters and fish are difficult to get, and the canneries on Mississippi sound have been compelled to close down in consequence of a lack of supplies.

The majority of tho bodies are washed out to sea or washed far into the marsh. The unfortunates were found iu everv imaginable place. JSome were lying high and dry on the land, where it is supposed they were washed by the waiter after death had relieved them from their sufferings. Some of the dead were buried under the wreckage of their houses, which evidently collapsed without warning. The bodies were mutilated and torn in a horrible manner. Arms and legs had been pulled from tho body and found floating in the pools, in the depressions in the fields, or lodged on an elevation where the water had cast them when the wave receded.

May l-all Victims to I*Jacua. The chief danger now lies in the probability that those uot destroyed by the storm may fall victims to the plague that must surely follow if steps are not taken by the government to cause the dead to be buried. The stench arising from the decaying corpses is terrible and the pollution of the atmosphere cannot but result iu au epidemic of disease. Then* is a growing demand that the national government send a detachment of troops to the scene to bury the dead.

The suffering of the survivors is being relieved as fast as possible, and a second shipment of supplies and provisions was sentoutThursday morning. The entire population of all the places named is now in absolute need of food and drink. Dead bodies arc floating around on every side and the situation is unparalleled in the history of the boulii.

W Asm.nufoN. ij. I, is the present intention of the leaders of the repeal tight to begin the promised era of business on Tuesday or Wednesday next. If enough of the absent repealers art: on hand bv -Monday night, the final engagement will begin Tuesday. The plan is to hold a continuous session till the vote is reached. Senator Voorhees believes that a vote will be reached in about fifty hours. Senator Uorman agrees with him. The repealers will, according to the programme, sit still till the antis have talked themselves out, then the vote oil the amendments will be taken as rapidly as they come up. The antis may hope to consume time by talking on the amendments, but the repealers will stop them by moving to lay the amend ment on the table. That motion is not debatable and the repealers have a majority. The antis realize the seriousness of their position, but they are clinging to the hope that the repealers will be unable to keep a quorum present The repealers, on the other hand, have little doubt on that point. A quorum composed of repealers will be present when the era begins, the leaders say. and a quorum will remain till the vote is taken. Senators Vonrhees and Gorman have no doubt that before next week ends victory will have been won and unconditional repeal will be an accomplished fact

Work of I lie Senate.

Washington, Oct fl.—When the senate met Senator Voorhces moved to proceed to the consid-vation of executive business. This is in accordance with an agreement reached a week ago that Wednesday should be devoted to the oonsidcratiou in executive session of presidential appointment in the territories which violated the home rule plank in the democratic platform.

Immediately.after going into executive session the senate took up the nominations of various Indian agents, made by the president in violation, so it is asserted by those opposing them, of the home rule principle. Speeches were made in opposition to the appointments by Senators II111, of New York, Davis and Washburn, of Minnesota. an»l others.

Mr. Hill's speech was of a general character, and was a criticism of such appointments because of its supposed violation of the democratic platform.

Messrs. Davis and Washburne had a specific grievance, due to the fact that Minnesota is near to the state to which an outsider had 'been appointed in the person of Robert M. Allen, of Illinois, who was designated agent at the White Earth agency.

Some of the friends of the president defended the appointment upon the ground that the positions to which outsiders had been named were all of a strictly national character. Senators Voorhees and Palmer spoke In this line.

The opponents of confirmation believe that they will defeat tho administration. They count all the republicans on their side, and on the democratic side both Senators Hill and Murphy, Allen, of Nebraska, and Martin of Kansas, and possibly Roaeh, of North Dakota. They also say it will require a quorum to confirm the names, which they think cannot be obtained.

To Ameod Senate Roles.

Senator Hill (N. gave notice that at some future da3' he would move to amend the rules by providing that upon any roll call, other than one to expressly determine the presence of a quorum, auy senator who is paired may announce such a pair, and his presence and announcement shall be entered in the journal, and the senator so present and paired but not voting shall be counted as present for the purpose of making a quorum.

C.) conoluded his speech in opposition to the measure, and criticised the election methods in vogue in South Carolina, claiming that the presence of federal supervisors was necessary to the conduct of a fair and free election.

Mr. llussell (dem., Ua.) was the next speaker, and his argument was in favor of repeal. Referring to Mr. Murray's speech he said it was proper and fitting that the requiem gun of the republican party should be fired by a son of Ham.
