AT this stage of the race the Vigilant
had a lead of four minutes twenty-five sec
onds, having gained two minutes fifty-four
seconds on the last leg The Vigilant was
cheered heartily she completed the first
round ard started on her way to Rosebeg,
with the Britannia well astern.
The captain Of the Vigiant gagged the
ebb tide. en- route to Rosebeg buoy, better
than the captain of the Britannia The
Prince of Wales cutter, consequently, was
carried further southwark, and in rounding
the mark was long wy behind the Vigil
liant.
AT Rosebeg buoy, on the second round.
the Vigiant had increased her lead by thir-
teen seconds, and led the Britannia by four
minutes thirty-five seconds.
Lessenfng the Gap.
The Vigilant changed her big lib topsail
to a smaller one for the reach to Kish
lightship, but the Britannia's sails were not
touched. The cutter got the better breeze
on this leg and diminished the gap between
her and the American sloop.
At Kish lightship, the second mark, the
Britannia had pulled up considerably on
the Nigilant, as the sloop led only Pm. 2Ss.
at the lightship. as against a lead Of AM
355. at the Rosebeg buoy, showing that the
Britannia gained I'm. 57s. on this leg.
After rounding the lightship, 1t was a free
reach in a steadier southerly breeze until
the racers were about half way to the Mug
Inns, when both yachts were almost be-
Gained until they were again sent on by a
southerly air.
The Britannia was well favored under the
circumstances, so that when a westerly air
carried the yachts out of the calm patch
they worked down on the starboard tack
to fetch the Muglins mark, with the Is,i-
tannia broad on the Nigilant's weather
beam. And when the yachts stayed to
port, when a long distance south of the
mark, into which position they had been
driven by the tide. the Britannia had taken
the lead.
1t was impossible to time the yachts when
they rounded the Muglins mark, on the
second round, owing to the lengthy detour
which they had taken on account of the
tide.
a strong puff caught both yachts as they
made for the home mark, in order to com
plete the second round. and they presented
a grand sight as they both heeled over
under the influence of the breeze showing
their polished huls they drove along the
rut water.
The Vigilant, however. had the Britannia
safely under her lee and was sailing very
fast, and pulling ahead of the cutter
Jib topsails were hauled down on nearing
the commodore's boat, but both took a
hitch in order to make the mark boat at
the end of the second round. which was
finished as follows:

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 2.-The report
that the secretary of war has remitted
the uneXpired part of the sentence in
the case Of Private CedarquiSt Mt Fort
Omaha, who was sentenced to fine and
Imprisonment for refusing to engage
in target practice on Sunday, Is pro-
yoking some warm discussions In
Western army circles.
General Brooks was seen in regard
to the action of the secretary of war.
He said that the official order | the Ce-
darquist case did OF agree with the
press report. The official order read
as follows:
washington, Aug. 1.
Commanding General, Department
of the Platte, Omaha, Neb.:
'"The unexpired portion of the SEN
tence awarded Private Cedarquist,
promulgated in general court martial
orders No. 45, current series, from
your headquarters, is this day re-
mitted by the President and you will
cause the man to be released at once.
'This action, however. is not in any
way to be regarded as Justification
of the disobedience of orders on the
part of the soldiers. The officer who
ordered target practice on Sunday, in
violation of the orders of President
Lincoln, given in November, 1862,
must be brought to trial for his dis
obedience of orders.
by order of the secretary of war,
GEORGE D. RUGGLES,
"Adjutant General"
The attorney who defended Cedar
quist said: "Cedarquist refused to
obey his superior officer because by so
doing he would be violating one of
the laws himself. A soldier has only
to obey lawful orders and this fact is
clearly set forth in general army or

the Both of August.
The following statements were
adopted by the executive committee
of the Prohibition state central COM
mittee at its meeting on this date and
ordered inserted as a part of the call:
The Prohibition state central COM
mittee urge all Prohibitionists to stand
true to their party principles and not
be led astray by "catch" cries, sucll
as redeem the state" etc, by electing
either the Republican, Democratic or
Populist tickets. Colorado to-day
shares as much prosperity rs any
other state in the Union-strikes, riots
and bloodshed are numerous every
where in the country. in Republican
states as well as Democratic or Popu-
list. The whiskey element is ruling
the nation and running its moral, finan-
cial and labor interests on every
hand. Though we may not lead to
victory to-day. it behooves us to stand
true. Our persistent fight and the hor-
rors of the liquor traffic are bringing
thousands into our ranks every month.
Stand firm, we are right, and right will

A Surprise from the visilant.

Cowes, Isle of Wight, Aug. A.
George Gould's yacht. the Vtgilant, mas
redeemed the promise of her sailing
master, that, given deep water and u
strong wind, she would defeat the
Prince Of Wales crack boat Britannia.
The race to-day was 80 miles, twice
over the queens course from of the
castle of Cowes, westward to and
around East Tepe buoy, leaving 1t on
the starboard hand and then westward
passing near the West Bramlite buoy,
to and around the Warner lishtship:
The prize was 100 pounds and the
race the fourteenth between these two
boats, of which the Britannia had won
ten. The Vigilant won by 8 minutes
so seconds actual time, and by min
utes 4G seconds corrected time.
Taking the starting time as 1O:4O,
and the Vigilant's finishing as 2:3I 40,
it will be seen that she went over the
course, slightly less than 80 miles, in
3 hours 81 minutes 40 seconds, or,
roughly speaking, at the rate of IL
miles an hour.

TRICKS OF CHINAMEN.
NON RESIDENTS REGISTER
Collector New Has Discovered An Exten-
sive System of Bogus tegistrat tiona
Made In the Denver District.

Gen. A. L. New, collector Of internal
revenue for this district, which in
cludes Wyoming and Colorado, has,
through one of his deputies, unearthed
an extensive swindling operation, the
qualifications of which extend through
out the West, says the Denver Times
Sun. 1t was discovered in the registra-
ton of Chinese residents in Rock
Springs, Wyo. Aside from 'implicat-
ing leading Chinese, any number of
white citizens are entanSled and the
exposures develop Il systematic sale or
fraudulent certificates. Mr.. New has
obtained evidence leading to the con-
viction that thousands Of illeSitimate
and fictitious registrations have been
entered at the treasury department:
The result OF this is that certificates
of residence have been obtained for
persons living In China who never saw
the United States. Names and photo
graphs of Chinamen who lived in this
country, but who have been dead for
years, have been used to carry out the
fraud. Upon these certificates that
have been sent to the celestial king
dom other natives may be landed in
this country as residents. 1t Is now
certain that every city on the coast
has contributed to the fraud. and
Wholesale arrests will follow when the
affair Is fully Investigated.
1t promises to be the greatest sensa-
ton sprung on the country for some
time, and will probably become n
question for international considern-
ton before the matter is disposed of.
AS far as shown the swindlc Is most
systematic one, involving two separate
coteries of operators one having head
quarters at Portland, Ore, and the
other operating in China.

American. Want to Fight China.

Washington, Aug. 6-Several hun
dred letters containing tenders Of serv-
ice to the Japanese government with
the present war with China have
reached the legation here. They come
from nearly every part Of the United
States. One of the latest was from an
ex-Confederate at Greenville, Miss, Of
fering to raise n battalion and even Il
regiment of men If desired, at that
place and New Orleans. Another was
from the Foreign Legion Of Cleveland.
Ohio. A third came from an indi-
vidual who was willing to raise n
company of picked sharpshooters, and
fourth was from person who had
some torpedo device he was willing to
part with for consideration.
Such communications as the last
mentioned are turned over to the ma
val attache of the legation, to do with
as he deems best. To the other the
legation officials return polite declina-
tions. 1t Is n penal offense for Ameri-
cans to serve either in the Japanese or
Chinese service while the two nations
are at war, so that the Japanese gov
ernment cannot under any circum-
stances accept the offers.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The Demo
cratic tariff cOnferees were in session
again today at II o'clock and re-
sumed the work Of trying to reach an
agreement on the points of difference.
When some of the members of the
committee came out of the conference
committee at 12 o'clock, they stated
that no possible progress had been
made, and that to all Appearances the
situation was the same as it had been
for the past week. Secretary Carlisle
had recently been called into frequent
consultation by individual members
of the conferences. He was called on
Saturday night by a subcommittee
of the conference. He made certain
suggestions concerning the admins
trative features of some of the pro-
posed compromise features, and it is
understood that since the suggestions
were received the conference has been
considering their bearing upon the
questions at issue. The coal and iron
questions have been taken mp with a
view to reaching an understanding
upon them, but progress has been
slow.
1t is understood that the senate con-
ferees have indicated a willingness to
make concession in the way Of time
the duty shall continue, but not to les
sen the amount of duty provided in
either case. The house members have
not indicated disposition to accept
this concession, and is understood to
be holding out for the terms Of the
house bill on these items.
