GREAT RACE COMING.
It Looks As If Dunrayen's Yacht
Would Come Over.
ONLY ONE CONDITION OF HIS
CHALLENGE OBJECTIONABLE

And That New York Yachtsmen Do Not
Regard as Essential-No Question
Raised Over the Measurement Clause
in the Deed of Gift Which Has Prevent
ed Races for Five Years Past.
New YORK, October 1S.-There was a
full attendance of members of the New
Yacht Club tonight at the club rooms to
consider Lord Dunraven's challenge for
the America cup. A committee of five
was appointed with full power to arrange
a match with any qualified yacht club
on the conditions, with one exception,
of the challenge, provided that no yachts
of the specified rig, known to be availa-
BILE for the use of the club, are barred or
penalized. Exceptions were taken to the
following section of the challenge:
1t is to be agreed that should win the cup,
the club obtaining the custody OF it shall hold
it open to challenge on the same conditions as
those under which I challenge.
The club voted that while the trust
deed allows the club having the GUS
tody of the cup to accept, on the condi-
tions therein prescribed, any condition
agreed on, this club regards any further
understanding or agreement unnecessary.
The last series Of races for the valil-
able trophy were sailed five years ago,
and there has been no challenge since
owing to the requirement that
the challenging club should
furnish the dimensions of its boat.
The question over this provision of the
new deed of gift has been amicably set
tied in the case of this latest challenge.

{ UNLUcKY MORNING STAR.
The German Emperor Will Not Favor the
Missionary Ship.

NEW YORK, October 1S.-Advices re-
ceived in this city by the Presbyterian
Board of Foreign Missions from the Mar
shall Islands, state that since the Ger
mans established their government over
the islands they have required the Morn
ing Star to obtain q permit from the Ger
man commissioner at Jalnij before land
ing at any of the Marshall islands. The
pfohibition includes Pleasant Island,
some $50 miles west of the Gilbert group
This prohibition causes the Morning Star
much loss of time and great expense.
The matter was laid before the Hawaiian
board, which brought it before the Ger
man Emperor, petitioning that the mis-
siohary ship be exempt from the rule, in
asmuch as she went on missionary SER
vice only, and not for trading. The re-
quest was refused, the German govern
ment finding no reason to make excep-
ton to existing laws.

About the Skowhegan Delegation.


Somerset Reporter.
Hon. S. j, Walton is reported by rep
rescntative of the Auburn Gazette to have
said on Thursday last: 'Skowhegan is
anti Bnrleigh. Mr.. WsweD has more sup
port in that town than the Governor and
Mr.. Millken has twice rs much support as
Mr.. Wiswell. 80 Skowhegan's delegation
of course will he divided but it will be anti
BHrleigh."
In regard to this the Gazette SAYS edi-
torially;
According to the opinion published in
our news columns to-day, of two well-known
Third District politicians, Gov. Burleigh is
out of the race for the congressional nom
iuatiun. We imagine. however, that other
Third District Republicans would tell n diff
fcrent story. 1t makes great deal of diff
ference about these things how yon want
them 10 go
One thing is very apparent in the state
ment of Mr.. Walton. if he l. quoted cor
rectly, and that is that he confid ,ntly counts
upon the Wiswell men to join the Miiliken
forces in securing an anti-Burleigh delega-
ton. Furthermore. he counts upon that
delegation being just as good for Mr.. Mill
ken AS a out-and-out Miliiken delegation.
otherwise, with the clear majority over all
that he claims for his candidate over Bur
leigh and Wisweil both. he would elect a
straight Milliken delegation.
The cold facts in the case are, that the
| only hope the Millikeu men have of even
fighting chance in Skowhegau is to in
lnce the Niswell men to combine with
them on some plan that will ultimately
count Int Congressman MiIIikens favor.
! Burieigh men expect To have a good
| clean majority of the caucus over all.

Hon. chauncey N. Depew's Speech.

1t is the pcculiarity of Republican Ma
ti,uai Conventions that each one of them
has distinct and interesting history. We
are lepr'to meet conditions and solve prob

exception to the rule but substantially anew

That there should be strong conviction.
and their earnest expression as to prefer
cnce and policies is characteristic of ,se
right of individual Judgment which is ne
fundamental principle of Republcanism.
There have been occasions when the result
was so sure that the delegates could freely
indulge in the charming privilege Of favor
itism ami Of friendship. But the situation
which now coHfronts US demands the exer-
cise of dlispassionate Judgment and our best
thought and experience. We cannot ven

The conditions of Republican victory

Lincoln and Ulysses s. Grant. They were,

stroy the Republic back into the fold, with
