GREAr CROWDS IN NEW roRK.
Hundreds of Persons in Gotham From Out
fTown 10 See the Yacht Knces.

Hundreds of Persons in Gotham From Out
of Townta See the Yacht Races.
New York, Sept. GA great throng of
out-of-towners is now filling the hotel
corridors. This time 1t is the yachting
contingent that has arrived all expec-
tant of witnessing the great contests
between the Defender and Valkyrle.
They have come in hundreds and hun
dreds, and at every hotel in town some
of them are reported to be staying
They are also at the transient boarding
houses and those who have friends in
town have in many cases been shelter
ed by them
The great fleet of ocean going steam
ships and staunch excursion boats
which will go out to the scene of the
race tomorrow will be crowded with
the ut-of-towners as we'll as with thou
sands of New Workers.
At the Astor house this morning it
was said that the guests coming for
the yacht race had commenced to ar
rive in force yesterday afternoon. Many
came from the New England states.
They are still coming this morning,
and it looked as if the hotel would be
unusually crowded.
Inquiries at the uptown hotels showed
a similar state of affairs. They all re-
ported a big arrival list. At the Fifth
avenue hotel and the Hoffman house a
large number of guests to see the battle
Of the yachts had already arrived.
Another factor besides the yacht
races which is causing an unusually
heavy list of guests is the near end of
the summer resort season and the APP
proach of cooler weather. This is bring
ing the regular hotel contingent who
have been away for the summer at the
seashore and mountain back to town.
The international yacht races have
hurried this movement somewhat.

BETTING ON THE, RACE.
Not So Much Money Wagered as There II
Been on Previous Occasions.

Not So Much Money Wagered as There H as
Been on Previous Occasions.
This evenings New York Sun says:
There never was less speculation on an
international yacht race than there is
on the result of the present series be-
tween the Defender and the Valkyrie
III. This seems to be the prevailing
opinion among men about town. Scarce
ly a wager worth recording has been
made at the uptown hotels.
There have been any amount of
mouth bets. That is, men who seldom
bet more than few dollars have been
visiting the big hostelries Offering to bet
thousands. If any one appeared who
wanted to bet, squabble about odds
ensued and no agreement was reached.
This was what the man who offered to
bet thousands really intended. He new
err had the remotest idea of making a
wager, big or little.
A man of this calibre called at the St.
James hotel few nights ago and Of
fered a liberal commission to J. j. Man
ming If he would find a man willing to
bet $1,000 against $4,000 Manning Sc
cured a man willing to accept the fig
ures. Then, to his chagrin the would
be bettor refused to lay more than IL to
10 on Defender. This offer was, Of
course, declined, and the negotiations
We're off.
The Wall street punters have wagered
more than any other one class. Davis
Barnes has placed several thousand dol
lars on Valkyrie III. at odds of 10 to u.
He booked yesterday wagers of 5000 to
$500 with J. B. Hartman William Rob
inson, William Putnam, Daniel Chaun-
cey and James W. Gladwin George
Sheldon bet him $1,000 against $1,000.
In addition to these wagers, Barnes
made a wager of $1,000 against $4,000
with prominent yachtsman who de-
clined to have his name mentioned A
few scattering wagers at 10 to 10 have
been made, but they were for $500 or
less The layers of odds at the race
tracks who were willing to make book
on the yacht races vainly offered to 5
on Defender. This seems to be the pre-
vailing price.
There is, however, a dearth of money
for the support Of either boat, and be-
yond hat, suit Of clothes or a din
ner but little betting has been done.

A Horrible Tragedy.

st. Louis, Sept. "a special from Sui
Ivan, Ind, says that a triple tragedy
occurred near that place last night.
James Ward became involved in quar-
rel with Aaron and John Hunter, his
father-in-law and brother-in-law, re-
spectively. He stabbed them to death
with a huge knife and then cut off their
heads. These he kicked around the
ground in football fashion. The alarm
was given and a mob pursued Ward.
Seeing that capture was inevitable he
cut his throat and died almost instant
ly. The cause of the quarrel is not
known.

WILL ACT INDEPENDENTLY.
The United States is to Conduct an Investi
cation of Chinese Riots.

The United States is to Conduct an Investt-
| cation of Chinese Riots.
Washington, Sept. 6.-The United
States government has decided to enter
forthwith upon an Independent investi-
cation of the Cheng-Tu riots with the
cooperation of Chinese representa-
tive. AS at first arranged, the inquiry
was to have been made in cooperation
with England, but there has been a
change of plan within the past few days
occasioned partly by the fact that the
British consul at Chung-King, who is
to conduct the investigation on behalf
of his government and to whom, with
the concurrence of an American mis-
sionary member, it was at first propos-
ed to entrust the preliminary investiga-
ton of the facts, has been detained at
his post, and it is said will not be able
to begin the inquiry for a month or
more.
There are also understood to be other
reasons why the state department has
decided upon an Independent investi-
CATION, such as France has already
made and such as England will make
later The department is not yet pre-
pared to make these public.
China is expected to lend her support
to the American inquiry to the extent of
supplying an escort to the persons who
will conduct it, but who have not yet
been designated, and will probably fur
nish an official who will cooperate with
the American investigator, as in the
ton is expected TO be made by some
official on the Chinese coast. 1t will
probably take month to reach Cheng-
Tu, which is the capital of the interior
province of Szechuan, and lies some fif-
teen hundred miles from the nearest
ocean port.

SMASHED THE HOG BUSINESS,

This section of country is pecul-
larly unfortunate in having every
kind of hardship thrown in its way at
every opportunity. The Union Pa
cihc, if it would, could help us along
materially and at the same time ben
elit itself, but far from doing that 1t
puts the screws to us numerically.
1t has it in for this section and can
never be brought to time until we
have q competing line. just now the
heathiest kick is due from those who
expected to ship few hogs and
squeeze through with few dollars
profit, but even that is hamstrung by
the new car rates from Weiser to
Butte which went into force on the
3rd inst. Prior to that time the car
could be had for $S5 and shippers
could make only so small margin
that they were not enthusiastic in the
business. Since then the hog market
has fallen, and as if that wasn't
enough, the freight rate has been
socked up to S101 car, which knocks
the hog business to Helena. The
only reason for it that we can see is
the deliberate intention to shut this
part of Idaho out of the Butte mar
ket, perhaps for the purpose of get
ting longer haul from somewhere
else.
