VIGILANT A RECORD BREAKER
Across the Atlantic Two DAYS
Faster than Predecessors.

New YORK, June 15.-There was
great rejoicing among the members
of the New York Yacht Club this
afternoon, when the report that the
Vigilant had passed Tory Island
was posted. Tory Island is off the
northwest coast of Ireland, about
100 miles to the westward of North
Channel. The Vigilant should
reach Gourock, Scotland, her des-
tination, tomorrow.
The voyage Of the Vigilant, tax
ing everything into consideration,
is one of the most remarkable in
point of speed ever made by sail
ing vessel. From the time she
passed the bar at Sandy Hook I'M
til sighted off Tory Island she was
IA days Is hours and so minutes
In crossing. Deducting the differ
ence in time, her voyage occupied
IA days, s hours and. so minutes.
The fastest trip ever made across
the Atlantic by yacht was in
1869, when the American schooner
yacht Sappho sailed from Staten
Island to Queenstown Light in u
days, 9 hours and "a minutes. In
the great race in 1866 for 10000
between the American schooner
yachts Henrietta, Fleetwing and
Nesta, the Henrietta made the voy-
age from Sandy Hook to the Nee
dies, Isle of Wight, in Is days, 81
hours and 30 minutes-an average
of 81 knots for 3106 miles.

GUARD FOR CLEVELAND.
Precautions Taken to Protect the
President From Cranks.

WASHINGTON, June ga mus
cular man in top boots and with
anything but a pleasure-seeking
air about him, stood on the curb
stone under the shade Of Lafayette
Park elm this afternoon. He held
by the bride horse that had but
few points of the thoroughbred
about him, but looked serviceable
under a heavy cavalry saddle. The
man seemed to have nothing to do
but to wait. When the White
House carriage drove around this
mysterious form suddenly devel-
oped alertness. He frightened his
saddle strap and looked up and
down the avenue. In a few min
utes President Cleveland came out
of the White House and got into
the carriage. The man under the
elm Immediately mounted. He
walked his horse along the avenue
until the Presidents carriage had
passed out Of the White House
grounds and turned into Jackson
Place. Then the stranger started
into trot and followed, keeping,
however, a distance of 800 yards
between the Presidents carriage
and himself.
This is precaution which has
been adopted since the assassina-
ton of Carnot. The man who rides
behind the President at distance
to avoid attracting attention is
heavily armed detective, quick with
his weapons and a fine horseman.
Although he follows at distance
he can place himself beside the
carriage in very few seconds, and
is expected to do so if any one
leaves the sidewalk to approach the
President, or if anything that can
be construed as a hostile demon
stration takes place.

Corporation Counsel Scott yesterday filed
with City Clerk Stewart q reply to the

resolution asked for an opinion as to the
eligibility of A. Il. Hunt to hold the po.i.
ton Of fire chief The opinion, based upon
an examination of 3 large bundle of docu-
meats that have been collected only after
great research, is that Chief Hunt is eligi-
BILE. The opinion. OF course. applies only
to the question as presented by the papers
submitted. and not TO an agreement of
