Views of the London Papers on His
Withdrawal.
LONDON, September 13.-The conclusion
of the International yacht races for the
Americas cup furnishes the text for articles
in all the London afternoon newspapers. In
general. the press upholds Lord Dunraven
in his refusal to sail over the course yes
terday without guarantee that it would be
kept clear of excursion steamers and other
craft.
In a leader the Pail Mall Gazette says
that the result is unfortunate, and that it
will be deplored quite as deeply by sports
men in America by the same class in
England. The article puts the whole blame
for the fiasco upon the hndering steamers,
and concludes: But no one is to blame who
is worth the blaming. We can only hope
that arrangements for future contests of
this character will be under more satisfac-
tory conditions
In its yachting column the Pail Mall Ga
Zette says:
while in our opinion Defender, under
fair conditions, would probably have bea-
ten Valkyrie in at least three out of five
races, we cannot but regret that Valkyrie
had no chance of sailing under fair condi-
items. To say that Defender worthily re-
tanned the cup. would be ridiculous"
Further on in the same article the Pail
Mall Gazette says:
1--WE hope that the Earl Of Dunraven will
consent to sail for the proposed cup off
Marblehead, as all are anxious to see the
comparative merits of the yachts tested
and MAY the best boat win. Should VAL
kyrie win, which We think Is improba Bile
neither Lord Dunraven nor any one else
would bother to challenge again for the
Americas cup, which the new trophy would
replace. Should Valkyre lose. We know
that Lord Dunraven would take his beating
like sportsman. Thus the races of 1898
would be brought to pleasant conclusion,
and further challenge for the new cup
would be only a matter of few years If
Valkyrie Ill returns without a race, 1t
me ans that her owner is convinced that he
did not have fair treatment at the hands of
the committee, and that no contest for the
cup is ever likely to occur, even though the
committee decided that future races should
be sailed where there was certainty of
fair course"

A Jockey Ruled OFF for Pulling.

will not ride another race, for he was in
definitely ruled off yesterday at Louisville
for pulling Simon W. in the third race.
The chestnut colt was favorite at 3 to 5,
and was even well backed at these odds.
When the flag fell Cassin pulled his mount
up suddenly and trailed around to the
stretch. In the final run home he got his
head for a moment, and would have been
in command in few jumps, but Cassin
shot into the rail attempting to get in a
pocket Even then Simon W. would have
come through with ease, but for Cassin's
strong arm. The statement of both owner
and trainer was that the race was lost
through Cassins riding, and as the
jockey could give no satisfactory explana-
ton, he was ruled off indefinitely, all bets
and the race declared off.

afternoon. A fast track and a bright sun

At 230 o'clock, when the three horses
scored for the opening heat, nearly 10000
persons were on the grounds. Robert j..
the great son Of Hartford came off VIC
torious, but for the fact that Joe Patchen
went into the air when within forty yards
of the " ire in the fourth heat there might
have been another ending. Robert j., how
ever, was steady as a clock, and not
once in the four heats did he go off his
feet.
The time in the fourth heat, which was
paced in 204 1-2, establishes a new record
for a fourth heat.

1t is a remarkable fact d

1t is a remarkable fact that
all through the North and
West, after the close of the
civil war, men who had re-
signed clerkships and other
positions to go to the front,
on returning to their employ
ers, if they were lucky
enough to get their places
back, were required to ac-
cept in greenbacks the sala-
ries in which they had pre-
viously been paid in gold or
it's equivalent, and green
backs were then and for
years afterwards at a large
discount, as much as 40
cents to $50 cents in paper
standing for 100 cents gold
or the ante-bellum money.
In order to realize the same
salaries as were enjoyed be-
fore the war, each 100 cents
should have been represen-
ted by 40 to go cents in
paper currency, but it was
not, and the deprecated pa
per dollars were charged up
as dollars just the same as if
they had been worth 100
cents instead of71 cents to
80 cents each, according to
fluctuations.
Very much the same state
of affairs would prevail if the
silver standard were estab-
lished in this country. The

would be paid with deprecia-
ted silver dollars having d
diminished purchasing power,
but they would be charged as

This would be the situation,
and while it might be profit
able to the wage-paying
class, it would bear with
great severity on the wage
earning class. 1t would be
the poor, not the rich, who
would suffer most. New Or
