The Bostons increased their lead
for the pennant yesterday by winning
two more games from the Baltimores
while the Philadelphias were beaten
again by the Brooklyns. The New
Yorlys fell down at Washington not
because Of any hard luck, but simply
through an inability TO hit a hitherto
unknown pitcher and tendency TO pile
up errors at the wrong time.
Their defeat was unfortunate, for had
they won they would have passed the
st. Lou team, which was beaten
by Cleveland, and would have also
been hard after the Cincinnati,
who succumbed TO the Plttsburghs.

PERSONAL LIBERTY"
Senator Hills Ringing Speech
at a New York Picnic.
ABOUT THE ABUSE OF sUoH RIGHTS

Although Men Indulge Their AppetItes
60 Excess There Is No Reason That
They should Be Prevented and Re
pressed By Stringent and Offensive
Laws Abuses Should Not he Punished
by Destruction.
ROME, MY, July 20.-At the picnic Of
the Hop Growers Association at Sylvan
Beach TO day Senator David b. Hill made
an eloquent address, his subject being
Personal Liberty"
Senator Hill spoke in part as follows
Personal liberty, as it is generally un.
derstood. especially in its best II not It's
broadcast sense. means the largest
measure Of liberty which IL is possible to
confer upon the individual citizen, not
injurious TO the real or substantial in.
terests of the whole community.
at may be safely asserted as a general
rule that citizen may eat, drink aud
wear whatever he pleases and that be
nay sow and reap in his fields whatever
they will grow, and that he may manu-
fucture IN his shops whatever his skill
may invent These are natural rights
whic h he possessed before governments
were founded or constitutions framed,
rights which he never surrendered aud
rights which constitutions and laws
cannot justly take away.
The abuse Of personal liberty by the
citizen is always made the plausible pre-
text for its prohibition or restriction.
You are familiar with the old thread
bare argument:
Men indulge their appetites TO ex-
cess; therefore the good of the commun.
ity requires that the manufacture and
sale of what they eat and drink must
be prevented or repressed by stringent
and offensive laws.
1.-THE fallacy, to large extent, of this
argument Is apparent when II Is re
fected that the abuse of any right fur
nishes no adequate reason for its
destruction.
"How many absolute rights would bl
permitted TO remain If the reasonable
and Just exercise thereof at all timei
was the imperative condition of theil
existence Who will assert that thl
freedom of the press is not frequentl,
abused, and yet who is prepared Il
declare that it, therefore should b.
bridged
"rhe air is filed with the noise Of dis
graceful religious dissensions upon ali
stract questions of orthodox doctrine, an
prosecutions or trials for alleged heres
among most respectable denomination
are becoming so frequent that It Is In
possible for we poor mirerable sinners Q
determine what is heresy and what
not, yet a total denial Of the liberty q
conscience would scarcely be tolerated /

THE AMERICA CUP RACE.
The Date of the First Will
Still Remain October 5.
COM. SMITH TAIKsoF THE PILGRIM

Entries for the Trial Races Included the
CoIonia, Jubilee and Pilgrim, But the
vIgIIant Has Not Yet Been Heard From.
All Entries Close August 1.
NEW YORK, July 29.-At last the date
of the first race for the Americas Cup
has been definitely settled. Yachtmen
will remember that the committee hav-
ing the match in charge appointed
October for the beginning Of the con-
test.
The exact wording of the paragraph
in the original conditions submitted to
Lord Dunraven regarding the date Of
races was 1.-THE first race shall be
fixed for October 8, subject to change
by mutual agreement. The other races
shall follow the date of the first race
with an interval of one day. Dates and
time of starting postponed races shall
be settled by mutual consent.
Now it appears that Lord Dunraven
has, until recently, been undecided
whether the races would begin as he had
been advised or that an earlier date
might be selected, but at last in the
dDStUtt Ol AAIbutI AnAtlAlEtnNtt nt
concluded that no change could be
made 1t has been the desire of the
Americas Cup Committee to make the
races earlier than October in compli
ance with the suggestion of Lord Dun
raven, but they have been unable to
make the arrangements to change the
date.
After Commodore Smith had disposed
I 4 Ia.
he thought about the cup defender Pill
grim's right to enter all the races during
the August cruise of the club, which
point has been extensively discussed
throughout the country.
Il cannot believe, returned the com
modore, "that there will be any question
about the eligibility of the Pilgrim tc
enter and start for the August races fol
the cups under the auspices Of the New
York Yacht Club.
"Some Of the Pilgrims owners are
members Of the club. and she has beer
entered as a competitor in the trial
races for the Americas Cup
81 believe that the club will be glad
to have her in the races of the cruise, anC
cups, where she will be sure of meeting

hope so, anyway.
81 am sure that II the Valkyrie wer
in American waters at the time of the
Goelet and Ascot races she would be
invited to compete for the cups by the
gentlemen giving them, as they have
reserved to themselves such right.
ut would reflect great credit upon tn
officials of the New York Club il fthey wer
to strain point with the view of havinl
the Pilgri d with them during the entir
cruise and in the big races off Newport
as the owners Of the boat have had grea
grit and the money to spend to build
defender of the Americas Cup. Aud tn
more of such men we can have the bette
will be the yachting interests of tn
country, and, possibly, the safer will b
the old cup"
Commodore Smith said that the entrie
for the trial races included the Colonia
Jubilee and Pilgrim, but the Vigilan
had not yet been heard from. he woul
again remind all interested that tn
entries close on August I, and 1t is e'
sential that those concerned should no
forget the date.
