Jr., of San Francisco, was a passenger on
board the steamer Newport, which arrived
from Colon yesterday. Mr.. Refs has a
complaint to make against Captain

Unless He Resisns his Honorary HEsmh~F-
ship In the Now York YACHT Club.
NEW York, Nov. 1a.--There ia much
talk among members Of the New York
Yacht club OF expelling Lord Dunraven
from the club, Of which he Is an honorary
member, for his course In imputing knowl-
edge Of fraud to Messrs. Tseiin and Smith
In the matter Of the Official measurements
OF the yacht Defender prior to the recent
race for the Americas cup. Among those
who have expressed themselves in favor Of
charges being preferred against Lord Dun
raven, II he does not immediately resign,
aro: J. v. Bowler, p. H. Halstead, Mr..
Doremus, Mr.. Clark, of Clark, Dodge %
Go. (who was member Of a former yacht
syndicate) and III. I. Nicholas.
Commodore Smith said that he did not
know whether Mr.. Iselin had demanded
that the cup and regatta committee of the
New York Yacht club should make any
Investigation Of Lord Dunraven's charges,
but he had no doubt he would take some
action.
Members of the New York Yacht club
say it ID not necessary to prefer charges
against Lord Dunraven In order to expel
him from his honorary membership. They
say that under chapter 20, of the bylaws,
he can be summarily dropped from the
roll. The chapter reads as follows;
I'm case Of an occurrence injurious to
the welfare of the club, the name or names
of any member implicated therein may be
removed from the list of members by q
vote Of majority of the yachts represented
ut any general or special meeting"
1t Ia understood that o meeting Of the
Americas cup committee will be held in
few days to consider the case of Lord
Dunraven's charges.
There was q demonstration Of feeling on
the floor Of the Stock Exchange yesterday.
Ex-Commodore Smith was cheered, and
when brokers yelled whats the matter
with Iselin?" there was loud cheering, but
Lord Dunraven's name was Missed.

gave figures of the amount bid for 1895,
which showed a much less figure, not
withstanding there was much moro work
: TO be performed this year.

tions accompanying contracts, and said

PASSED THE HELLESP0NT,
An Unconfrmed Rumor That an
English Warship Was
Fired Upon.
Such an Action Upon the Part of the
Turks Regarded as Very
Improbable.

LONDON, ENG, Nov. 30.-The Observer
tomorrow will print the following dispatch
from Paris, dated mid night:
A report is current here that British
warship passed the Hellespont and was
fired upon by the forts. 1t is merely a
rumor and there is no confirmation what
ever.
Besides the dispatch to the Observer
nothing is known here regarding the al
legged firing on British warship, and it is
the consensus of opinion that the report is
unfounded.
Such action on the part of the COM
manders of Turkish authorities is thought
to be extremely improbable.
