HARRIS PLAYING THE MARTYR
He Has Assumed the Role, and Now Be-
lieves the Position Real.


lieves the Position Real.
SING SING, n. Y, May 6.-"Tell the
reporters, said Carlyle Harris to one OF
his death watch yesterday, to make it
public thatI have not broken down and
that | shall go TO the death chair with
as much courage as had on the day
when | went and surrendered myself TO
the District Attorney"
But" said his boyish brother Allen,
who heard his words, sit is not too late
to hope, Carlyle"
"Oh what's the use?" answered the
condemned man impatiently. They
will hurry me of as fast as they can,
even though / could bring q witness
who saw poor Helen buy the fatal dose
OF morphine on that awful night. They
are bound to hurry me off anyhow. Us
all over"
Harris has acted the part of martyr
so long that be now really seems to be-
lieve himself one. 1t makes no differ
ence to him that he has had greater op-
portunity to prove the innocence he as
serts than any murderer ever brought
trial in this State. He started to play
his part and he has played 1t so long
and so cleverly that he character he as-
sumed has become bis nature.
Harris mother is here now She was
telegraphed for at Harris request i'm
mediately after the word was received
thai there was no longer hope, and she
al once left Mortified, Mass. the farm
home on which she was born 10 come TO
Sing Sing via. New York.
There is talk OF the possibility OF
Harris committing suicide. Those who
know him believe that he would lot do
so II he could get the chance.

speclal Vigilance to be Exeroised.

WASHINGTON, May G. 6.-Secretary Car
Isle today directed the United States
collectors OF customs on the Atlantic
coast and United States revenue marine
officers to exercise special vigilance TO
prevent the shipment of arms and am
munition from the United States to
Cuba, This action was taken at the
request Of the Spanish Minister at Mad
rid. This action on the part OF the
treasury officials explains the Madrid
dispatch received yesterday. 1t seems
that it was not complaint which the
Spanish Government:made, as to care
lessness in regard to flibustering, but
a request for the exercise of special
vigilance on the part of the United
States to prevent shipment Of arms and
that this request has been promptly
met.

IT WAS JACK TAR'S DAY.
The Britishers Carry OF Two of the

The Britishers Carry or Two of the
Three Prlzes-An Exciting Regatta.
New YORK, May 6.-When Jack
Tar awoke this morning he was happy.
To-day was the first day since ne ar
rived ia this port that he could justly
look upon as his own, and he was re-
joiced TO find that the elements were
kindly to him in the cool, invigorsting
air aud clOudless sky OF the early dawn.
With the true instinct Of sailor he
saw the prediction OF glorious day for
the man-Of-war regatta this afternoon.
Nearly every boat which entered into
to-day's contest could be seen on
the river in the early morn-
ing. The result Of the days
sport was great victory for
Great Britain. Her tars carried of the
hOnOrs, winning two Of the three, and
coming in a good second in the other
race, which was captured by the Rus
SLAMS.
IL was 4:S2 .. m when the first race
was started. 1t was for ten and twelve
cared cutters donble banked-that is
two men rowing abreast, and was three
miles straight away. IL was no contest
OF racing machines made of paper or a
shell OF wood; it was boat race, and
every crew was in regular man-of-war
boat with regulation oars, manned as in
regular service. There were sixteen
boats in line, and British, Russian,
Italian, French, Brazilian, German and
Argentinian crews were in them.
The Englishmen rowed like automa-
rrb 1x-n rNar nd
n cOxsWain in each Of the leading boats.
The coAswsin stood and threw himself
forward with each stroke. The crew
from the British ship Australia won in
95 minutes and so seconds. The crew
from the Italian flagship Etna was Sec
DAD.
The finish in the second race was ex-
citing, the people on the British aud
4 Russian ships doing their best in the
Way OF cheering 10 aid their respective
ckewS. The crews OF the Blake aud
Australia were almost side by side, two
boat lengths in the rear Of the Rus
slams.
I IN the third race, which was two
piles only, three British crews led all
t1he way with first one or the other Of
sbeua ahead. The crew from the Brit
,Ah SHIP Australia won in Il minutes
pa S5 seconds.
1Ihe Americans were barred from
AJPpeting. as their boats are lighter
nN superior TO those OF the foreigners.

afterward she presented herself at the
