An End Put to Fillbustering

Probability That the Federal Elections

ate today Morgan of Alabama pre-
! sented petition from the citizens oi
his state in favor of the repeal of the
Sherman act. 1t is said to be one OF
the petitions sent out by New York
bankers, and he considered it man
date from them, not from the people
of Alabama.
Voorhees, moved that the repeal
bill be taken up.
After sharp passage between him
and Platt of New York, who wished
to make motion for an amendment
to the rules providing for cloture,
George of Mississippi addressed the
senate in opposition to the bill.
HOUSE.
The decree of King Caucus was all
dominant in the house today. Tie
Democratic party acted as a unit in
ending the filibustering which las
blocked legislation for weeks.
The committee on rules had helt. a
meeting at which, over the protest of
the Republican members, the c9m-
mittee was instructed to report rules
that would disarm the filibusters.
AS soon as the journal was read
Loud of California asked for unani-
nous consent for the consideration of
a resolution asking the secretary of
the treasury how many OUNCES of
silver were purchased in July and
August of the amount offered, and, if
the government had not purchased
the amount required by law, under
what authority the secretary had
acted.
Fitch objected, and then the strug-
gle began.
Burrows moved suspension for
the call of committees for reports.
Catchings, from the committee on
rules, presented report providing
that no other business could be in
order until the reports OF the COM
mittees were received.
Burrows made point of order that
the report was not in order, as it had
originated with the committee.
After sharp tilt, with Burrows
and Reed on one side, and the speaker
on the other, the speaker overruled
the point of order, holding that the
committee on rules could originate
an order of business just as the COM
mittee on appropriations could origi-
nate appropriations.
There was loud applause from the
Democratic side.
Burrows appealed against the de-
cision of the chair
Fitch of New York moved that the
appeal be laid on the table.
Burrows then moved that the house
take recess for an hour.
Catchings made point of order
that the report of the committee on
rules was the only thing in order,
and the speaker instructed the clerk
to read the report of the committee.
Reed made vehement fight against
the action of the speaker, and said
the clerk had no right to read the re-
port, declaring, amid Democratic
cheers, that the action of the speaker
was the most surprising in legislative
history.
The fight continued all the after
noon, the Republicans stubbornly con-
testing every step, but the Democrats
were always able by hard work to
muster a bare quorum and gain
point.
At 4 80 it was apparent that the
end of the fight would be that the
federal election bill would be reported
despite the desperate dilatory tactics
Of the opposition.

days ago he suffered relapse, and as
there was no one there to treat him. he
took the desperate but only chance OF try

Then she was towed to Erie Basin, South
Brooklyn, where her fin was put on,
and later on was taken to Boston to be

are: Length over all, 122 feet; length
on Water line, 1928 feet; beam, % feet,
and draught, % feet.
The Pilgrims model is the most
unique of all. She is like big canoe
with fin and bulb of lead attached.
Her hull proper only draws five feet.
The fin is an interesting study; it is 30
feet long on top, II feet deep, and about
is feet long on the bottom. At the
bottom of the fin the plates form a short
angle on either side, and on this angle
rest the sixteen tons of lead bulb, in two
halves, secured by bolts that pierce from
side to SIDE She has a centreboard,
which is to be used like the Jubilee S
auxiliary to assist in steering; it is about
seven feet long. Capt. Edward Sherlock,
who last sailed the Marguerite, is her
sailing master.-New York Times.

She is peculiar to herself in several re-
spects, and will command much individ-
ual attention. In the first place she rep
resents the beam centreboard type, just
as the Colonia stands for the keel boat
pure and simple. Again she introduces
a novelty in the form Of a Tobin bronze
underbody, and lastly, she carries the
largest sail spread of the quartet and
the rgest, in fact, ever bent on rae
ing sloop in this country. The use OF
the Tobin bronze, Mr.. John b. HERES
hoff says, will give an advantage OF five
or ten minutes in thirty-mile race. She
carries her enormous sail area with ease,
standing up well under mainsall, stay

quick in stays, and is a powerful wind
ward boat.
The Viiglant is managed by Mr.C.
Oliver IseIin, and Capt. II Hansen is her
sailing master. Her pennant is red
and black swallow tail.
The first of the Boston boats to be
launched was the Jubilee. She is now
owned by Mr.. John B. Paine The Jubi-
lee is steel boat like the others. She
was built at Lawley's in Boston, and
was launched ON June "a. Her dimen-
sions are: Length over all 123 feet; on
the water line, about S5 feet beam, 20

for the Americas cup.
The Jubilee has been termed freak.

Speaking of the boat recently, Mr..
Rogers said: "The boat is much like the
Wasp-as much as the builders consid-
cred wise to make her with her increased
dimensions. She is as light as it was
deemed best to build her, yet she will
be a powerful craft-in fact. a good,
wholesome, sensible specimen of a keel
vessel, without attempting to introduce
anything of the freak order in her con-
struction It is the EN- bodiment of their
ideas pure and simple. They were not
restricted in any sense, and they must
stand by their creation whether she is a
success or a failure If she has merit, it
will be found out. If she is failure,
that will be self-demonstrative. The
best will be done to make her success

The second Herreshoff boat is the Vigil
liant. She was built for syndicate head

the New York Yacht Club The other
members of the syndicate are Messrs. G.

r. Flint George G. Clark, Adrian Jselin,
Chester w. Chaplin, Cornelius Vanderbilt,
and DR.. W Barton Hopkins. Mr.. Fl. Astor
Carey, who died before the boat was
built, was also a subscriber.
The Vigilant was launched on June IA.
She is centreboard boat, and conse-
quently is regarded by some as the boat
that should be selected to defend the
cup, because she is purely American. Her

THE CUP DEFENDERS.
Our Big sloops-what They Are and
why.

Never in the history of the contests for
the Americas cup has there been so
much interest shown in the performance
of the defenders, and never have there
been four cutters like the Vigilant,
Colonia, Jubilee and Pilgrim built to
defend the cup. No one can charge
yachtsmen with being unpatriotic. They
have devoted months of study and hard
work to get thesboats into shape. 1t has
cost fortune to construct and maintain
each yacht tt sprove that American yachts
are still the fastest in the world and can
be sailed better than any foreign yacht
When Lord Dunraven challenged
race for the cup, yachtsmen in New
York and Boston at once set to work to
get all the boats built they could to de-
fend the cup. They realized that the
Valkyrie would be a smart kind of
craft, and to make no slip up in the de-
tense of the cup four yachts were built
of different types. Two were constructed
by the Herresehoffs at Bristol and two
in Boston. OF the two Herreshoff yachts,
one is centreboard and the other is
keel boat. The Boston boats were by
different designers. One was from the
board of Stewart & Binney. This is a
deep fin-keel craft, and the other was
from designs by Mr.J B. Paine, and is
a com bination fin-keel and centreboard.
Mr.. Archibald Rogers was the first man
TO rive an order for a cup defender.
He placed it with the Herreshoffs and
ordered a keel boat. The CoIonia is the
result of this order Mr.. Rogers formed
syndicate to defray the expenses of the
boat. The gentlemen as .ociated with
him are Mr.. John E. Brooks, owner of the
schooner Lasca; Mr.. W. X. Vanderbilt.
owner of the steamer Valiant; Mr.. T. W.
Vanderbilt, owner of the steamer Con-
queror; Mr.. j. PierponJ Morgan, owner of
the steamer Corsair; and Mr. F. Augustus
Shermerhorn, owner of the steamer
Empress.
The Colonia was launched May Is at
Bristol. The syndicate asked MIR. Rogers
to take full control of the yacht and she
carries the red and white bulls eye,
signal that has been famous in these
waters for many years. Capt. HANK

name is household word wherever yachts

by no means excessive, for the work is
skilled one and needs good business
ability to keep the employees profitably
engaged, but it is enough; for a SIR all
factory, able to turn out 100 cases day,
will turn in $40 of profit, sum that
would turn the head of the average grain
farmer, for the tomatoes required for this
business would need the product every
day of only one-quarter of an acre of any
good land. And the work may go on for
quite lengthy season, for peas, sweet
corn, beans, fruits, and other products
may be canned, and the season thus
heightened al each end into six months
in the year. And $40 day during four
months only will amount to Sc 500.
