drowned. Lord Dunraven sold the Vslky-
rie to an Italian and she recently CON-
peted in the Mediterranean regatta.

1t was on November %, 1892. that Lord
Dunraven issued his second challenge for
the America cup TO the New York Yacht
Club. He had challenged for the cup In
1889, but the challenge came to nothing.
1t could not be expected that so keen a
sportsman as the Earl would be thwarted
| in his desire to contest for the cup, nor
could it be expected that England would
tamely submit TO the trophy remaining on
this side of tie water so long as there was
hope of taking it back again. The Sec
ond challenge came 10 due course, and
after some few hitches In the preliminary
negotiations the matter was settled salts
factorily to all parties. and the Valkyrie
was designed for the express purpose of
taking back the cup to England.
She did not take it back, but that was
not because she did not make gallant
fight for it. 1t was a question OF fortune.
largely, though it must be admitted that
the American yacht Viglant showed points
of superiority IN many ways over the Eng
lish boat.
The VaIkyrie left England for the
United States early in August, 1893. She
was so long in crossing that grave fears
began to be entertained of her safety, but
she was jogging through blue water at an

the series of races for the cup, and all the
world, Yachting and other, not of New
York. turned it's eyes in the same direc-
tion. Everybody knew wha: the Vigilant
could do; her trials had not been under
cover. Rather, they had been in open
day. with all the world for audience.
Nobody. on the contrary. outside of her
crew and owner, knew just what the
Valkyrie was capable Of. She was said
to be a demen in q calm and a fiend in a
blow.
1t looked very much as though the
American yacht was between the devil
and the deep sea, with prospect OF fall
ing between the terrors. The first race
was a drifting match. nothing more. The
Yankee yacht went into calm, and for a
little while stopped dead still; but the
wind freshened a bit presently. and then
il was dem on strated that the Vigilant was
the better boat dead before the wind.
This was one point upon which the su-
periority of the Englishman had been re-
peatedly and vehemently asserted. After
all, the Valkyrie was perhaps not such a
demon in a calm.

WASHINGTON, May 16-A plan for the
completion of the Nicaragua canal 6y this
Government by a new system of financier-
ing was introduced in the House to-day by
the author, Representative Bryan of Ne

sions intended to increase the circulating

meet favor from the anti-bOnd men.
According TO the bill tbs stock of the
canal company is to consist oI 1000 shares
of 500 each, for which legal United States
n otes Identical in character to those issued
under the act of February, 1862, are TO be
issued, redeemable to the same extent and
in the same manner as those OF 1862.
The Secretary of the Treasury Is to pur
chase $40, 100000 of the stock of the com
pany and pay for it at par by the issue of
the notes described, which are to be kept
in circulation as part of the currency of
the country. Six million of the capital
stock is to be issued to the Government of
Nicaragua, $500, 600 to Costa Rica ana the
remaining S23.500,000 is to be held in the
treasury until the Government decides
W bether 10 purchase it or permit it to be
sold by subscription. except an amount
not to exceed $7,00O.00O to be used by the
company in taking up its outstanding
stock.
Provision is made for an Immediate is
sue of $4,000. 900 as a working capital and
the issue of the remainder In quarterly
installments as may be necessary to carry
on the work of construction.
