today atsthe hands Of the Prince of Wales
cutter Britannia.
The race was under the auspices of the
Royal Clyde yacht club and was for the
Queens cup recently offered the club.
For the reas on the race was deemed a
most important one and awakened even
greater interest than did the opening race
of the Vigilant on Thursday.
Britannia got the hest of the start by a
minute and three seconds, and led until
well toward the fms, when the Vigilant
passed her and was first home, but with
too small lead to save her allowance.
The start played a most important part
in the race, AMI it is the opinion of good
judges here, that had the Vigilant got away
in the lead she would have kept ahead and
won.
AS it was she was out-maneuvered for the
start and could not recover until.the wind
ward leg to the finish when she showed
something of the fine work done to wind
ward on Thursday.
Captain Carter of the Britannia, had the
assistance of O'Neil, who sailed the Irex,
Iverna and other crack..boats. O'Neil
loaned the Britannia sixteen picked men
from the crew of tn Q Iverna, making the
Britannia's total company forty-six men.
The Vigilant carried forty-nine men.

Not been Obeyed.
Baltimore, July .8-The threatened
strike in this locality as a result of the
Pullman boycott was not ordered today.
James Russell, secretary of the Ameri-
can Railway Union branch, received a
telegram last night from President
Debs, ordering the men to stop work,
with view to crippling the eastern
divisions of the Baltimore and Ohio, and
Pennsylvania Railway system, but the
order was not obeyed Russell today
said the organization was not strong
enough in these parts to warrant pro-
mitigation Of such an, order unless they
were supported by other labor organiza-
tions. Or this he had doubt. He said
to an officer of the railroad conductors
organization today: Our constitution
binds us to strike rather than work with
scabs, especially when the men strike for
making fight for principal. You may
be sure if the switchmen and trackmen
in Baltimore 60 out no trains will
move"
Other railroad employees around differ
eEt lodges talked in the same strain and
it is generally predicted tie UP will en-
sue. James Duncan, secretary of the
Federation of Labor, representing Al, 900
men, is opposed to the sympathetic
strikes. He doubts if the present one
will extendssthis far E asst, but the feder-
alton, he says, would lend assistance
should occasion demand it. The Bal
timore and Ohio western train service
is badly crippled, no trains coming to
this city dile5t from Chicago, and west
bound passengers are told they will prob
ably not get beyond Garret, Ind.

MET WITH FORCE.
Militia Fired Upon the Rioters at Chicago
Killing Several.

Chicago, July 7.-The collision be-
tween the mobs and militia occurred
at 10th and Loomis streets, at the Grand
Trunk railway crossing at that point.
Company c. of the 18th us. Infantry,
with the police and deputy sheriffs and
marshals, had been endeavoring to clear
the tracks at that point all the after
noon, and the crowd had increased until
it numbered $1,000 hooting, yelling, dis
orderly men, women and children.
During the trouble stone was thrown
which struck Lieut.. Harry Reed on the
head and knocked him down. Panic
at once seemed to seize his company and
some one gave the order to fire. The
militamen raised their rifles and fired,
or intended to fire over the heads of the
rioters. A second volley was fired and
third, when the crowd broke and ran
and the shooting ceased. The ground
was strewn with wounded and thousands
of sterror-stricken men, women and
children were flying to cover from the
awful leaden hail that the soldiery had
begun to pour into them. On the
tracks of the railroad, on tops of cars and
upon wrecking engine, which had been
cl caring the tracks at that point, were
the soldiers, rifles held ready to fire
again, and eyes blazing with that terri
bic excitement of war; The officers of
the small troops stood with swords
drawn and revolvers ready. Bnt there
was no need of another voliey nor pur-
suit of those who hadn't been manned
or killed by the first terrible fire. Where
moment before Is, 900 men, women and
children had been hooting, throwing
stones, clubs or anything else handy at
the soldiers, not one now remained.
Under cars, behind fences and houses.
into holes i'll the ground and sewers and
under the wooden sidewalks, which
at this point are two or three feet above
the level of che prairie, the people ran.
jumped and crawled Women with ba-
beis in arms were thown down and
trampled upon by the crowd in it's mad
haste to get out of range of the rifles
and the men who aimed them.
After the yolleys had been fired for
full 80 seconds not soul in all those
thousands stirred hand or foot or ut
tered a sound. Then a hoarse murmur
began; women began shrieking and men
to curse. The mob line shivered as
if it had the palsy, then it looked at
the troops standing ready to fire again,
and the officers ready to give the orders
1t wavered, seemed to shrink within
itself. and then broke and ran in a wild
frightul stampede for shelter.
