Tho Gitana, Mayfower, Stranger and
Cinderella Winners.
NEWPORT, r. l., September 19.-Many OF
the yachts have left the harbor and will 60
tomorrow. Yachtsmen are disgusted at
Saturdays race and seem anxious to get
home. The result OF yesterdays drifting
race il vet unknown. Commodore Gerry
was seen on board the Electra" to-day
and asked for the finish OF the yachts. The
time taken by each yacht as it passed
Brcnton Reef light was as follows:
Stranger" 8 hours, SO minutes and 20
seconds; cinderella" y hours, At minutes
and l5 seconds; "Gitana" hours, min
utss and "a seconds; "Thetis' . hours, 81
minutes and 35 seconde; Galatea' lo
hours. SO minutes and 80 seconds; MAY
flower" 10 hours, 90 minutes and 30 sec
onds. 1t would seem from this that the
"Galatea" finished before the Mag flower
bat such was not the case. The Commo'
dore said the "Mayfiower' passed the
lightship one length
AHEAD OF THE GALATEA,
and the discrepancy in the time is due to
the difference of the time OF the watches
used on the different yachts. Commodore
HA"s "oulu HOO ouJ "AScASA SAS
would be given to the Mayflower or Gala
tea, though the fact that the former fin,
ished length ahead, and was handicapped
besides, would seem to leave no question:.
lie also could not tell whether it would be
decided that the Stranger won. He said he
could not decide these questions. Ihey
were for the Regatta Committee to pass
upon, aud as the committee have already
gone back to New York, the race can pe
decided only by them there by the time OF
the finish without regard to fouls, time al
lowances or handicap. The winners are
the "Gitana," ''Maytlower,' "Stranger'
and Cinderella in their respective
classes. 1t was nearly midnight when the
"Mayhower" and "Galatea,' the last
boats in, dropped their anchors in the har, a.

DENVER, September 21.-A Montrose
special to the News says: Early this morn.
ing a mob OF armed men attacked the
County Jail with sledges and crowbars and,
before the Sheriff, who lives near the jail,
was alarmed they succeeded in forcing an
entrance to the building, from which they
took L. F. Simms, who was held for killing
John Berkley on July %. When the Sher-
iff reached the scene with a posse the mob
fired on him. The fire was returned and
over 100 rounds were exchanged without
any harm. Finally the Sheriff forced the
mob into the mountains, where they sep
arated, going in every direction, one party
taking Simms over the west side OF Uncom-
pahgre Mountain, where it is supposed he
was hanged and buried. Citizens have
been searching all day for the dead body OF

The Reporters ON Top.

HALIFAX, September 21.-At the hearing
OF the case OF the seized American schooner
David J. Adams" this forenoon, Coun-
selor Meagher, who represents the United
States, eEdeavored to secure the exclusion
OF reporters. Only one Of those present
had been subpenaed, and aftercounsel had
cited the authority for the exclusion OF
Witnesses. the Court ordered this reporter
to retire from the room. He refused to do
so, and the Sheriff was ordered to remove
him. After some alteration he went out.
When too late it was discovered that those
concerned in his election had put them
selves in peril, as the Sheriff has no juris-
diction in the Courts OF the Admiralty.
Later, when another of the subpenaed re-
porters came in, Meagher demanded his e1-
pulsion, but the Court declined to haye
anything more to do with that class of
procedure, whereupon the expelled reporter
recurned. Evidence was taken in corrobo-
ration OF that heretofore given, and the
prosecution closed. Meagher has asked
that permission be granted to take testi-
mony for the defense in the United States
where nearly all the witnesses are at pres,

ling and able to provide for the wants OF
Ireland equally, as ii it were an Irish Par
lament. [Cheers.] 1t was useless to talk
about the lateness OF the sessions. The
House was only six weeks old and a ma
jority OF the new members were young,
fresh and not overwOrked. They did not
need q holiday. A state of urgency existed
in reference to the relations between land
lords and tenants in Ireland. Parnell
here explained the provisions OF the bills.
The first clause he said was the most i'm
portant because it dealt with the most
urgent subjects. Itssenacted that any stat
utory tenant whose rent was fixed prior to
the last day OF the year 1884 might apply
for an abatement in accordance with the
provisions of the bill. The bill was to be
temporary measure With the exception of
the second clause, which provides for what
he hoped would be only a temporary
emergency. 1t was intended to meet the
depressions in price, but he could not tell
now whether the depression is likely to
continue. The depression commenced in
1885 and has continued unabated ever
since. ''There are no signs OF recovery
said he. Indeed, the signs for the future
are growing worse, but l only ask the
House to take action with regard to the
rents falling due next November, and that
will be in the next session of Parliament.
Until the House is able to take action on
the report OF the royal commission we will
abstain entirely from prejudicing the Gov
ernment proposals, but we do know that
since the bulk OF judicial rents have been
fixed there has been great depression in
prices.

hooves the House to apply Il temporary
remedy now and wait for the Royal Com.

Our opponents will probably urge it will be
