LONDON, Sept. 1S.-The yacht race for
the Breuton's Rect Cup took place yes
terday. THIS cup is an American trophy,
and was captured by Sir Richard Sutton,
owner of the English cutter Geuesta, in
1856. The Geuesta, It will be recalled,
went to the United States In that year foi
the purpose of atle pting TO capture
the Americas cup. TIE Puritan wa.
pitted against her. and the former kept
the much coveted prize In America. Sir
Richard Sutton. however. entered his
boat In other races, aud when the Genesta
returned to England she had won the
Brenton's Reef aud Cape Nav cups from
the then crack American yachts.
Until this year the cups remained in
undlsputed possession of thes English.
Mr.. Royal Phelps Carroll determined to
make an effort to take the cups back to
America, and yesterday his yacht Nava-
hoe and the Prince of Waless Britannia,
which was selected 10 defend the Bren-
ton't Reef Cup. sailed for the trophy.
The boats started from Cowes at $50
o'clock in the morning, in tow. for the
Needles, on the western extremity of the
Isle of Wight. The course was from the
Needles to and around the break " ater mt
Cherbourg. France, and return, about
100 miles.
The starting gun was fired at ILLS
O'Clock. A very strong wind was coming
out OF the east at the time. The first
point afterwald at which the yachts
were timed was the Neei lies lighthouse.
They passed there as follows; Britannia
1890; Navahoe, 12:46.
TIE estimates made regarding the
speed Of the two yachts when they passed
the Needles prove to have been we'll cal
culated. In the run across
the Channel the Navahoe caught
up with and then gained slight leai
on the Britannia. The course was al
most due south, aud the wind was almost
abeam. Sheets were trimmed we'll ait,
and were hardly eased off until the
Cherbours breakwater was reached.
The Navahoe rounded the break water
at 5l2:lO, and was followed twenty sec
onds later by the Britannia. Booms were
swung TO starboarl, and with ever ything
set drawing well the boats headed for the
finish. The wind at the time the boats
went around the breakwater was blow
ing fresh, easterly breeze that promised
to hold.
Navahoe Draws Ahead.
CHERBOURG, sept IL The Britannia
came into the roadstead late Yesterday
afternoon by the western entrance. The
Navahoe was close on her heels. AS the

JORITY OF 10.
WILLIAM DELIGHTED
WITH HIS SUCCESS.
The Kaiser Becomes Impatient With
the Long Political Debate and Tries
to Force the Bills Passage-Caprivi
May Be Made Prince-The Reichs-
ing Closed

Berlin, July 15.-rhe army bill was
passed by the reiclstag this afternoon
by majority OF IL, the vote standing
POI in favor Of the measure to 1S5
against it.
After the bilI was formally adopted,
he reichstas WAS declared closed.
Soon after the bill was put on the
final passage and after the speaking
commenced, il became certain that the
leaders of the opponents 10 the govern
ment meant business and did not in
tend 10 let the measure be adopted in
A perfunctOry manner. Speaker after
speaker paid less attention to attacking
or supporting the bill than TO railing
at his political opponents.
The chancellor, who was suffering Sc
yerey from inflated veins in the leg,
listened to the discussion for an hour
and a half and then disappeared from
the house. 1t was learned subsequently,
that be left the house to meet the en-
peror. The kaiser had become bnpa-
tient and had driven up to the minis
ter's private entrance, through which
he entered the parliamentary building
1t is understood his majesty urged
the chancellor to have the bill carried
through Tie house at once as he desired
to start tonight for Kicl, from which
place lie intends to 20 to Bornholm,
an island belonging to Denmark
The chancellor returned TO The house
and spoke privately to Herr Won Levet-
zow, president, and several members
with a view to eXpediting the close OF
the discussion. The stream of talk
was suu steadily lowing on van no
sign Of a check.
The emperor, impatiently tuning out
side. called for FreiherT Won Stumm-
Halbcrg, who went to his majesty and
reported progress. Probably finding
ne could get nothing but indefinite
statements from this source, the EN-
peror left the building before the di-
vision was taken.
The emperor is delighted at the
passage Of tie bill, and rumor has il
mat he viii confer upon Chancellor
Won Caprivi the dignity of prince.

a lively argument about admitting nsrr

Mead murder case. Judge Cate clairnod
that IL 1t was done 1t might prolong tbo

fair TO spring such testimony withon,
giving the defense a chance to meet &
Mr.. Quarles claimed they had evj.
dence that the state was not in possas
sion Of when e case closed, which had
a material becLil g on the case. The
state expected 90 prove by c. r. Chris
Hanson, postmaster of Ogdensburg. that
on the morning of October S be saw
Prior and HanscOmb coming from lola
about 5 o'clock. Mr. Christianson was
sworn and said he could not swear
positively that the man was Prior and
could not swear whether the other per.
son was man or a woman.
Witness was asked to give his opln.
ion now as to whether, after looking
at defendant, Prior, he was not the
man This was objected to by the de
Tense. The court sustained the OBJ.
lection and said that at this late date
he would not allow any more such
testimony to be introduced.
Judge Bardeen then asked witness II
at the time he saw these parties On
the road he came to any conclusions
Witness answered emphatically: No

tify that he told Prior at the time Of
his arrest in 1880 that he heard that
Sam Stout was ready to give the whole
thing away as SON rs e move va,
made to prosecute the case. This was
also objected to as hearsay.
This testimony was brought on fd
the purpose Of endorsing Williams tes
timony that Prior and Lea talked about

brought on the stand to show Frank
Stout's actions at the time Kenney
Sherman was being examined at New
London. The defense objected and

The summary Of the foreign com.

The Montevid. Times says the excess
Of exports over imports for the quarter
is S3,164,OO0 in 1893, against $3,601, 600
in 1892, a difference Of some $437 900.
This, however, may be picked up by
superior expectation in the second
