ACTING COMMISSIONER STOCKsLAGEI
of the General Land Office holds in a
decision i'm the homestead case of
Daniel 4. Rogers. of Missouri, that the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad Company
is not entitled to the reserved odd num-
bered sections within the limits of the
grant of even sections to the South
Pacific Company of Missouri. This
decision involves lands on the line of
road between Springfield, No., and the
western boundary of the State, dis
lance Of ninety miles. The South Pa
cific railroad received the even sections
and the Atlantic l. Pacific claimed the
odd sections, both companies thus
claiming solid block of land under
the two grants, although but one road
was constructed. Assistant Commits
s:oner Stockslager holds this claim UNI
tcnable, and awards the tract in con-
troversy in the decided case TO the
Lomcsteader.

THE YACHT RACE.

| The May hower, While In the Lead II Shu
Out by q Fog.
NEW YORK, Sept 9.-The wind wa
blowing at the rate of twenty-six miles a,
hour this morning when the two yachts
the Mayfower and Galatea, fol
lowed by concOurse of tugs ant
vessels of every description, came up tht
bay to the Island. Bunting was displayed
everywhere, but the occasion was no
marked by the display which hac
accompanied the first race. At 11:5s
a. M. the vessels were ready Il
start and the signal was given. The Gala
tea was given the same all0wance-thirty
secOnds-as in the last race. 1t sped alOnf
in splendid shape.
12 m.-The GaIatea, it is thought, is gain
ing little.
12:55-The Mayflower is now an eight
of mile ahead.
1:3O-A dense fog has settled over the
course. Nothing exact is Obtainable. A
tug boat has just returned with the new:
that the Mayfower is still an eighth OF 9
mile ahead.
NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-There were plenty
of disappointed yachtsmen In New York
last night, for the second race of the inter
national series had been postponed until
Saturday. After sailing in q fresh breeze
from the eastward for four hours the May
flower and Galatea, with an accOmpa-
nying feet of nearly a hundred YES
sells. were enveloped in a thick fog ten
miles east of Sandy Hook lightship and were
compelled to abandon the race. When the
Mayfower rounded the ''outer mark,
twenty miles east of Scotland Lightship,
at 1862. the Galatea was not in sight.
The MayAOwer had outsailed her on every
tack from the start both carrying the same
sail in breeze that was steady from about
east with occasional rain squalls and a
moderately heavy swell from that quarter.

SOME of the National banks have
been very tardy in forwarding reports
of their condition in response to calls
made by the Comptroller of the Cur
rency, and it appears for a long time
past that the penalty of one hundred
dollars day for such default has not
been imposed. Some of the habitual
delinquents among the banks are again
behindhand on the call for the 9th of
August and the Comptroller has de-
cidcd TO impose the penalty in. a suffi-
cient number of eases TO establish a
precedent, and on future calls the
banks will be notified of the strict en-
forcement of the law and the penalties
in the ease of neglect.

SEVERAL springs have recently APP
peared near the village of Cerbadelago,
near Havana, Cuba, the water from
which has formed a large lake, threat
ening the village with inundation.
Several plantations and factories are
already submerged and the water
which is now three feet deep, is slowly
invading the village. A large number
of the inhabitants have left the town.
The evil governor of Havana and
the municipal architect have gone to

New YORK health officers have
found Grant Golden, fireman on the
steamer Alvo, suffering from yellow
lever, in st. Vincent's Hospital. The
fteamer came in from a voyage to the
West Indies and South American ports,
and Golden, who is a Scotchman,
took board at No. 32l West street,
where he was taken ill, the character
istic symptoms of yellow fever devel-
oping themselves. New York has
scattered eases of yellow fever every
summer. This is the first this year.
The health officers do not fear that the
eontagion will spread, protesting to be-
Eeve that it can never again obtain a
foothold in New York.

AN electric motor for sewing ma
chimes is on exhibition in New York.
The magnets and dynamo are fastened
to the machine by thumb-screw.
Wires running from the battery to the
magnet conduct the electric current
that operates the dynamo. The cleo
trio current is so slight that the two
copper ends of the wires can be placed
against the tongue without any per-
ceptible sensation, so that there is no
danger of shock. A speed of from
two hundred and fifty to one thousand
revolutions a minute can be obtained
from the batteries.
