A BAD SCARE.
Mr.. Norman l.. Munroe's Yacht, Norma,
Nearly Capsizes at Launching.

New YORK, May 4.
Two hundred ladies and gentlemen were
on board of Mr.. Norman l.. Munroe's steam
yacht, Norma, when she was launched at
Brooklyn, yesterday. On reaching the water
the vessel healed over to starboard till her
plankshear was level with the water. A
scene Of the widest confusion occurred on
deck. Ladies shrieked and one or two tainted.
All who could do so, however, struggled up
to the port rail and clung to the bulwark
netting. The stern of the yacht was slowly
swung up stream, and she came bow to the
tide. The weight of her passengers righted
her. and sgain sent her down on the port
side. Once more the panic stricken crowd
scrambled across the deck to the starboard
rail. and once more she rolled over on that
side, this time going completely on her
beam ends, her rail submerged and keel
visible to those on shore. In this last careen.
ing it seemed almost certain that she would
go over entirely, but che hung, finally, waen
nearly over, and did not again right. Sew
eral tugs went to her rescue, and all OF the
company were taken off in safety. Relieved
of her load the yacht partially righted, and
was towed to the dock.

The receipts up to l O'Clock today were
s35, 900. They will probably be q, 900 more
before midnight. Between l A. NJ. and P.
M. Fitzgerald made "A miles; Rowell, SO !;
Panchot, -; Noremac, 80; Herty, 50; Elson,
~; Writ, %.
At four O'Clock Fitzgerald had made 593
miles and 5 laps, Rowell had gained one
mile on him and covered 5S3 miles and 3
laps.
After this Fitzgerald and Rowell had sew
eral spurts and often passed one another.
The ex. alderman had to take frequent rests
during the spurts and it looks as if he was
running short of breath. Rowell stuck to the
track without intermission during the after
noon. Charley Mitchell, pugilist, was in his
hut and showed great interest in his country
man. He frequently patted Rowell on the
back and whispered words of encouragement
to him.
At4.35 tired Elson stopped At the scorers
stand FOR rest. Little Vint came along and
encouraged him to start again.
Panchot and Herty frequently went of the
track for rest. The latter held to the track
under very trying circumstances. He was
suffering pains that would discourage any
but a plucky man. At 5 there were between
5000 and 5000 people in the garden.
Fitzgerald made his 60Oth mile at 20 min
utes and 10 second past 5, and it was greeted
with great enthusiasm. Cheer after cheer
rent the air, caps and hats were flung in the
air and handkerchiefs were waved BY many
people. Fitzgerald was then miles and 8
laps ahead of Rowell. He finished the 601st
before retiring. He had only been out of
sight 5 minutes when Rowell pushed out
Fitzgerald heard this and got up and At once
went after the Englishman- This caused an
other outburst of cheers. When Hazael
made his record of COO miles in 6 davs he
completed the last mile at about 9 o'clock in
the evening. Fitzgerald beat this record by
over hours.
During the evening Fitzgerald was pre-
sented with silver goblet lined with gold.
He carried it to show Rowell, but the latter
paid but little attention to the gift- Rowell
completed his 60Oth mile at 6.5s. beating
Hazels record by hours, Is minutes, IS
seconds. Peter Durysa. Rowelrs backer,
gave up the contest at O'Clock. He attriba-

After noon Rowell went of the track at
brief intervals for short space of time and
then Fitzgerald gained trife on him, but as
soon as the Englishman appeared he would
start of at a gait that lessened the lead. Row

NEW YORK, MAY 3.
At immense crowd WAS in attendance at
Madison Square Garden this morning, drawn
thther BY the closeness of the contest be-
tween Fitzgerald and Rowell. The latter
had pulled down the formers lead in q mas
tsrly way. until at ii O'Clock this morning
Fitzgerald vas put five miles ahead of him
Fitzgerald vas the fret of the leaders to re-
tire for long rest last night. He went of
O'Clock this morning. During the early
pages for rest. He looks like q thoroughly
tired out man. His shoulders are bent for
ward, his movement labored and his express
ion very anxious. His trainer said Fitzger-
aid was drowsy and stiff, but thought those
feelings would be worn of before long.
Rowell rested during the night hours and
~ minutes and then came on the track. From
this time up to ii 80 he was in his house only
5S minutes. He was sleepy when he first
on and walked only 32 minutes when he went
in for SO minutes. On his return he went at
his work in . much fresher style and at IL 80
was making miles an hour and about 4
laps to Fitzgerald's 8. He wore q most de-
termined expression on his face. His step
was little heavy and slow, but was the per-
fection of grace and elegance, when COM
pared with FltZgeralde
Panchot followed up his wonderful per-
fOrmance of l04 miles on the 5th day BY
sticking to the track during the early hours
of the morning with pertinacity. During
the night he took l hour and 5 minutes.
Seven-eights of the time he was on the track
he ran in his light, easy style and went way
ahead of Noremac. Panchot's handler said
that he was astonished at his grit as his stom-
ach had not been well up to yesterday, and
that for four DAYS he took nothing but ice.
Noremac did not do as we'll this morning
as was expected of him. He has the best
record for the 9Th and 9Th days. Yesterday
Panchot beat him and it looks as if he would
easily do the same thing today.
Herty takes his maps in small quantities.
He had eight rests in all.
Vint looked pale and thin but stuck to the
track with pluck.
Elson, too, displayed courage in his effort
to save his entrance fee.
At 10 o'clock this morning the score in
the walking match stood as follows:
