LONDON PREss,
Times and Standard Throw up the
Sponge.

Times ana SCan0a ara IhrOw ND the
Sponge.
LONDON, Oct. 9.-The Standard this
morning says:
There is no question that the VAL
kyrie has been fairly and squarely
beaten by the Vigilant. 1t would seem
that the American yacht designers have
kept in front of us. The VigiIant is
speedier than the last American cup
defender, as the Valkyrie is faster than
the Thistle. The result of the contest
between the Valkyrie and Vigilant is
certain to revive the old discussion as
to the respective merits of keel boats
and centerboards, but it is to be hoped
that our designers will not be tempted
to make another change, but to rest sat
isfed with such notifications in huIIs
as will enable England to make another
and 4 successful effort to bring the tro-
ply back to this side"
The Times says: The result of the
second race for the America cup leaves
no doubt that in most weathers the Vigil
liant is more than match for the Val
kyrie. There is no ground to pretend
that the boats have not had a good all
round hardWeather test. The Times
expresses the fear that the Valkyrie.
like her predecessors, will fail to bring
back the cup.
The Daily News says: 1t is no longer
possible to believe that the Valkyrie is
as well built or handled as the Vigilant.
1t seems clear that our yachtsmen and
builders must once more go TO school in
America. There is some secret in the
American mind in this branch of sport
which we have yet to master.

auditors books show that there was cuf
on this section last winter 2SS, $50 feet.
l looked over the land in September of
this Year and found there was about
100000 feet cut on the section. In adj
ditioD to the logs 1 found that there had
been 2,432 ties cut on this section. which,
had not been reported 20 the state
auditor. These ties are worth five cents
apiece. The pine on the section was
sold to the Ii. c. Ackley Lumber COM
pany. The original estimate on this
section was only 100000 feet. After.
the cutting had been made last winter,
l went into the auditors office and
found thst the record showed that
6,2SS, $3.50 feet had been cut. This report
was not made until after June7. There
are many cases where supplemental re.
ports of the amount cut have been
made, and number of instances where
returns had been made ill August after
the first reports had been made in June.
The above testimony is but speci-
men of all taken by the committee, but
will serve to show that extensive frauds
have been perpetrated on the state

Kershaw's Suicide.

. CHICAGO, Oct. 9.-Developments In
the suicide of Henry D. Kershaw, of
New Orleans, leave no doubt but that
insanity was the cause. His attorney,
Mr.. Gilmore, said to-day: ''Kershaw
was born and raised il New Orleans,
and is connected with some of
the wealthiest and most promi-
nent families there. His mother is
cousin of Napoleon III. His wife, who

VIEWS OF CAPTAINS.
Cranfleld Says the Valkyrie Was
Fairly Beaten.

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-An Associated
Press reporter saw Capt. Cranfield on
the Valkyrie when the English yacht
came to anchor off Bay Ridge, after she
was towed up from the Sandy Hook
light ship.
"What kind of day was 1t, captain?'
was asked.
sit wasn't a bad day." replied the
captain. 1--WE had good, fair breeze,
and not too much of it. l must say we
after the race Saturday, that we should
do better on the triangular course than
OH that to windward and leeward
race. Instead of that she beat us
on the wind and off it, and
whea the wind freshened and l thought
we should catch her, she walked away
from us. When we had gone about five
miles L thought we should have passed
her, but was very much surprised that
from that time to the end she gained on
US. l expect that was on account of
her center-board-my idea | mean.
She probably had not got it down to
suit her. l knew after Saturdays race
that we had hard nut 10 crack, but |
could not believe that we could have
been so well beaten as we were. We
all know from what the Navajo could
dol on the other side. that the Vigilant
must be far away in front of her."
HASN'T your knowledge of center
board yachts as compared with the keel
convinced you that the American plan
is the better?"
81 will not admit that yet," answered
the Scotch captain. I'VE can yet show
YOU some other experiments"
G. Oliver lselin, chief owner of the
VInilGnt cai6 pJhon dnaE Of ho
victor, while standing near Capt. Nat
Herreshotf and Capt. Hansen, that the
Vigilant had not been pinched in the
early part of the race.
''We held the windward in order to
avoid the Valkyrie's back draft. AS
soon as we got the position we wanted"
said Mr.. Iselin, 1--WE let her go, and
went ahead. l think today's race is
conclusive in every way. The Valkyrie
was outsailed. What more is there to
say? The harder it blew the more we
gained. The excursion boats, 1 might
add, did not interfere with US, and L
cannot see how they bothered the VAL
kyrie."
While the reporter was talking to Mr..
Iselin new bowsprIt was dragged up
along the Vigilant, and it was learned
that the American yachts head spar
had been strained during the race. A
new one had to be rugged, and the crew
went to work about it in a lively man
ner. As result of this, Wednesdays
race may be put off until Thursday.
The decision In this matter will not b6
known until tomorrow afternoon.
Commodore S. Nicholas Kane, the
chairman Of the regatta committee,
stated tonight that notice concerning
this would be posted on the New York
Yacht club bulletin at p. m. tomorrow.
Lord Dunraven left the Valkyrie on
the tug Pulver as soon as she came to
her Bay Ridge moorings, and dIned out
with a private party tonight.

ASYLUM SCANDAL.
Horrible Cruelty to Young Ba.
hfnc

bies.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. "a shocking
scandal has been caused here by the
ceroner's investigation of the San
Francisco foundling asylum, where
thirty-three badies nave died
within the past six weeks.
The place has. been closed.
The coroner ascertained that the thirty
three waits died of lack of nutrition and
maltreatment. The Daughters of the
Good Shepherd publicly branded the
asylum as slaughter house for babies,
The sanitary conditions of the asylum
are very bad. 1t is charged that the
nurses and attendants occupied the
sunny rooms up stairs and kept the
babies i'll damp, dark aparts
ments. Before the coroner today
it was developed that the dead
babies had been kept on the premises
four days. The official undertaken OF
the institution testified that when an inc
fant died the attendants put the body in
box under the front doorsteps, and
they were kept there like so much garI
bage until he came TO take them away,
He had found three bodies cast indiSl
criminately into the box at one time.

Detained at Hoffman Island.
New YORK. Oct. 9.-Dr. Jenkins,
health officer of the port, visited and in-

PeoJle Who Forget Umbrellas.

"Oh, that's nothing" said the clerk as
he gathered up the abandoned umbrella:
1--WE find them here every day."
1t was in a railroad Office, where peo-
pie came and went every few minutes.
And it was raining too.
Nov, you'd think" he continued to
an amused gentleman. that anybody
who had sense enough to come in when
it rains would have enough left to take
their umbrella with them if they didn't
want to go in. wouldn't you? But they
haven't. There may be reason for a chap
going away and leaving his cane on the
counter, but l can't exactly place those
who deliberately go out into the rain
and leave a silk umbrella behind them.
Yes, they come back sometimes-some-
times they don't. There must be some
thing in the fact of buying railroad tick
cts. You see, they are not used to trav-
cling. Buying a railroad ticket is an
event to them. They show that by the
questions they ask. They have their
minds gorged with the important details
Of the proposed journey, the time the
train is to start. the time it gets there,
the connections. the checking of baggage
and all that sort of thing, and they
haven't room for umbrellas and canes
and packages. It's the same on the cars.
