A WONDERFUL SWIMMER.
He Swan Three Miles in Forty
FIVE Minutes
wITH MS ARMS TIED TOGETHER.

Tho Course Was Across and Down the
East River-steve Brodie Padded Along
at the swimmers side-A shout Of Fear
Went Up.
NEW IoRK, June 10.--"Genen Mercadier
the southern trick swimmer, swan across
the East river yesterday from the BROOKLYN
navy yard to pier No 10, East river, on the
New York side, a distance of three miles.
in forty-five minutes. His arms were bound
together with seventy-fve feet Of rope and
two leather straps. In each Of his hands
he held two pound dumhbell Steve
Brodie, the bridge jumper, attired in his
3oyton suit, accompanied the swimmer,
so as 10 be at hand in case assistance should
be needed From the handle Of steye's
paddle loated small American hag.which
notified the boats in the river TO keep at
distance.
shout Of Fear Went Up,
Mercadier fell into the water at 1912 a.
m. and immediately sank Hundreds Of
sight seers had gathered az the navy yard
20 see him start, and from them arose n
shout Of fear lest he should not come to
the surface Their anxieties were ground
less. In less than a minute he came up.
With some apparent difficulty he managed
10 turn himself in the water back down.
After drawing in a good supply Of air he
commenced his voyage, propelling himself
along by drawing his knees up as far as he
could and then suddenly strengthening
them with all his power.
The Swimmer shivered.
a.. -.
dier was help ashore by tive friends who
were expecting him. The water was very
cold and the swimmer shivered as he was
assisted to a neighboring store, where be
was rubbed down.
Another Wonderful Feat.
A fleet Of boats, some Of them filed with
members OF the Narona boat club, followed
| the swimmers across the river cheering
them with their shouts. On Sunday next
| Meradier will attempt TO cross the river
with both arms and feet tied together by
i25 feet Of rope. Nearly two thousand
people waited patiently in Battery park
| from u o'clock yesterday morning until
nearly o'clock last night They were all
eager 10 see Mercadier aud Brodie, but the
swimmers did not put in an appearance.
| Whenever barrel was seen floating in the
river a shout would 60 forth that the swim
mers were coming aud then confusion
reigned until the crowd found out that
they were mistaken
Steve Hrodie.
When Brodie was seen, after coming out
Of the water, he said that he assisted AFer-
cadier twice by placing his hand under
Mercadier's chin for few moments, in
order TO give him rest. The first time
was while they were crossing under the
Brooklyn bridge The second was just be-
fore the two were pulled out on the Now
York side Steve thought the feat was q
most remarkable one. He thinks that
Mercadier viii be successful in the one

The Chinaman said he was Sam Kee, the
proprietor OF q laundry at Page and Broad
streets, Providence, and the girl said she
was Annie Lawrence, and lived in provi-
dence, too Bit by bit she told Justice
White how abe had come 10 make the trip
to New York with Sam Kee. She met him,
she said, about a month ago when she was
working in a Ufre factory on Stewart street
She went 70 his laundry first with friend
uf hers who introduced her to sam, who
was v0ry attentive to her. Annie made
three other visits after thai to the laundry
alone. Then Sam proposed that they come
to New York and promised her silk dresses
and diamond ring or two She showed
the judge fancy gold ring on her finger
which she said sam bad given her On
Saturday night Sam Kee left his laundry
and went to Fall River, where he got two
state rooms on board the Puritan.
Held for Abduction.
BY this time Sam Kee had got hold of a
lawyer, who advised him not 70 say any
thing and to ask for an examination jus
tice White accordingly held him ia 81 800
bail for examination on the charge Of alb
duction, and set the case down for next
Friday Sam Kee gave his pedigree to the
warden in very good English. He Is %
years old and said that he lived at No.
Mott street in this city. Agent Schultess,
Of Mr.. Gerrys society, took the girl up to
the societys rooms in Twenty-third street.
II is possible that If she had once got
within the walls of the Mott street tene-
ment she would never have been heard
from again.
That is the place where Lee Kui sue
ceeded in keeping Suen Yee imprisoned
for "A year after lac had bought her for $500
from An Hoon, Chinese gambler All

But the question which, in my opinion,

cial relief, as all know, as long as the Off &c

Even if the sub-treasury bill is all that its
most Jealous friends claim Tor it, the Re-
publican party jeered 1t when Mr. Bland,

The american Flag in q New Form.

The american Flag in g New Form.
From the Ne,o York Marine Journal July ).
When the steamship Olivette left here on
June 20 for her route between Boston and
Bar Harbor she flung to the breeze the new
American flag, or the old flag with the new
arrangement of stars, as suggested by tie
venerable Gen. F. Z. Spinner. This former
register of the United States treasury.
whose unique signature caused SO much
comment, writes to President H. B. Plant
of the Plant Investment Company, and
owner of the Olivette. a characteristic letter,
in which he says: Il consider it a great
honor that you do me by pacing a flag
with the stars arranged, as is proposed. to
represent a single star" The arrangement
alluded to here consists in placing the forty
two stars, representing the several states,
in the form of single star on the union, "
the blue background for the stars. 1t Is to be
hoped that the innovation inaugurated by
Gen. Spinner and Mr.. Plant will univer-
sally prevail soon. The utility of the flag
would be fully preserved, and its beauty
and convenience very much enhanced.

everything In its path, be IL good or
bad. He delivered his speech in a
good, strong voice, and with perfect
ease.
Walter L. Caldwell held up 1.-THE
nations king" money, and delivered
a scathing arraignment of its evil
influences. That money is king is an
indisputable fact. The Grafton was
delivered with marked effect, and it
was couched in exceedingly good ian
guage.
K. ID. Hancock, of Tennessee, de-
livered a strong Plea for purer morals.
His line of argument was strong,
showing that pure morals is the saw
ing principle of this government,
J. M. Meeklin, of Mississippi,
thought the principles of socialism
were hostile to the teachings of
Christianity. The true aim of social
ism was to break down the present
form of government in the United
States and substitute therefor one of
quite a different character Mr..
Mecklin was loudly applauded at the
close of the speech.
Windsor Pipes, of Louisiana, made a
good speech on the dangers of central
ization of Government. He viewed
with fear the attempts of the Federal
Government to take control of the
public schools and elections in the
South. The speakers memory failed
him, which caused much of the
speech to be lost.
G. M. Shaw's speech on fact and
fancy, was literary gem. Sparkling
with poetical passages, and abound
ing in well-rounded perfect sentences.
Mr.. Shaw spoke better to day than he
did last night, his voice being clearer.
He was given tremendous applause by
the audience.
The exercises tonight consist of an
address before the literary societies by
Rev. w. E. Cave, of Paducah, KY,
and an address before the Alumni
Association by Chas. S. Ivie, of Shell
