CORTLAND On. ", Aug. 19.-Relatiyes
here of John A. Givens, sole heir to the
Givens estate, believe now that he has
met with foul play. The police of San
Francisco have been asked to aid In trac-
ing him. Givens left this village on
April 18th for San Francisco, and on
April 9th he was heard from at the
Brooklyn Hotel In that city. That was
the last heard from him. ]. f. Squires,
a cousin, wrote to the proprietor of the
hotel for information, and an answer
came back that Givens had been a guest
at the hotel for few days, when he left
suddenly without settling his bill In
his room he had left his valise and q
banjo.
The answer was so unsatisfactory that
James 6. Squires, an uncle, wrote Chas.
Chamberlain, another uncle living In
Oakland, asking him to make inquiries
The Oakland relatives, under date of Au-
gust 18th corroborated what had already
been learned from the proprietor of the
hotel.
When he left Cortland Givens had with
him over a thousand dollars, and jewelry
valued at more than double that amount.
His trunk has not been accounted for. It
was not taken to the hotel.
Chamberlain suggests that Giyens may
have been murdered-Givens attained
his majority in October, 1889, and the
estate was then settled up. He belongs
to one of the best farnilies In Central
New York. The police of various cities
and private detectives have been en-
ployed to find some trace of him.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-This was the
second and last day of the regatta of the
National Association of Amateur Oars
men. 1t was beautiful weather, smooth
water, and everything essential to good
racing.
The Junior singles was between Flem-
ing and Dyer, of the Crescent Club OF
Boston, Wright of Toronto, and Berry OF
the Passaic Club. Wright led easily all
the way, finishing winner by six lengths,
Berry second. Time, 10:16 1-5; second,
I0:l7.
There were five starters in the pair oars
from the Argonaut Club of Toronto, two
from the Atlanta club of New York, two
from the New York Club of New York.
The Dempsey brothers (Atlanta) led out
a length, which they maintained to the
end, with the Argonauts close second.
Time, 1912.
Four-oared juniors, the ArEingtons OF
Massachusetts,, Neptune Club Of Balti-
more, Ariel Club of Baltimore and Poto-
mac Club of Washington took part.
They got off well together, and at the
! mile the boats were within three lengths
of each other, and all going very fast, the
Arlingtons leading. The Arlingtons
opened up the distance on the ArielS, and
soon had two boat lengths between them.
The Neptunes now braced up, came up
fast and closed on the Ariels, and in the
last quarter it looked very much as if
they would land the winner, but the
Ariels kept right on and came over the
line three lengths behind the Arlingtons
and two lengths ahead of the Neptunes,
the Potomacs last. Time, GIL for the
winners, 9:23 for second.
VI,
ray and Hedley, each of whom won in
their respective heats yesterday. Gaffray
won, Higgins second, Hedley third.
Time for fist man, 1905, second, 1905.
Finals in double sculls, the Catlins OF
Chicago, Albanys of New York, Vespers
of Philadelphia and Varunas of Brook
lyn took part. The Albanys outclassed
their opponents from the start. The Yes
pers soon went wild, and the Varunas
got lead on them. The Chicago lads
continued to fall hopelessly behind. The
Albanys were never headed, Vespers sec
ond, VarunaS third and the Catlins well
to the rear. Time, S:37.
The racing closed with the feature OF
the meeting, an eight-oared race by
crews of the New York Athletic Club,
Atlantas, Fairmounts and Columbias OF
Washington. The Atlantas led by half a
length in twenty strokes, the New Yorks
and Fairmoants on even terms. Column
bia caught a crab and fell of. At the first
half the Atlantas still led, with the New
| York eight pressing them hard. AT the
mile the local crews had cut down the
distance between the leaders by some
| lengths, and were pulling strong, even
stroke. All the crews journeyed on
without changing positions till in the
last quarter, when the New York crew
| made grand squirt, and by magnificent
rowing crawled upon the leaders and
crossed the line in front of the Atlantas,

Gay woman who says she was Schorr's
wife arrived here from Butte, Montana,
and met Mrs. Schorr No. 9 Comparing
their experiences, Il singular story of the
drowned mans duplicity was unfolded.
Mrs. Schorr No. l says she was married
to Schorr ten years ago, and that they ac-
cumulated little property in Butte. Her
husband went TO Australia, and last May
wrote her to join him there. Instead of
waiting for her he took passage for San
Francisco. With him came a Miss Tay-
lor, whom he married on reaching here.
lie expected by the time he reached
San Francisco that his first wife would
be on her way to Australia. Instead,
she missed the steamer, and it is thought
that Schorr, fearing prosecution for
bigamy, committed suicide. The second
wife gave all her money to Schorr, and is
now left pennileSS.

TREvEs, Aug. l9.-This city is packed
with visitors from all parts of Germany
to be present at the ceremonies on Thurs
day, when the holy coat of the Savior
will be exposed to public view.
The rector at the church at Argenteuil.
in France, who possess the rival coat, has
arrived here with two friends. He de-
clares that the holy coat of Treves is not
seamless, as has been represented, and as
the description in the New Testament re-
quires the coat should be, and moreover
that it is long cloak, falling from the
shoulders to the feet, which Jesus, being
a mere craftsman, could never have worn.
The French rector's presence is likely to
cause trouble, as his remarks have stirred
up much indignation among the faithful
here.
