Captured the First Race for the Amer
ica's Cup. ~
New YORK, Sept S.-Defender fairly
beat Vallyrie III Saturday aver course
of 80 miles by minis. and 49 Secs.
The wind varied from five to eight
miles an hour. The course was from
Seabright, N. j., to windward, east by
south, Is miles and return, the starting
gun being fired at 1920. Valkyrie
crossed the starting line four seconds
ahead, but Defender was to windward.
They carried club topsails.s Valkyrie
had baby jib topsail and Defender
No. 2. For q short time Valkyrie out
pointed and outfooted Defender, and
things looked blue for the $4,000 Amer
leans Oh the largest fleet Of excursion
boats and steam and sailing yachts ever
seen at an ocean race and probably any
other kind. No.
In the first three tacks Valkyrie con-
tinued her good work. Defender was
then sailed with rap full and at once
out-footed Valkyrie, though apparently
going to leeward. About SPIN. the
breeze freshened to its greatest power of
the daylight miles-and Defender i'm
mediately passed her competitor and
was never afterwards approached. De-
fender was mihs: 80 secs. ahead at the
outer mark. Thence home, the wind
having shifted to about southeast, it
was broad reach. Both yachts set bal.
loon jib top sails. On the reach the
wind dropped to five miles before; the
finish. Defender gained Minis. 43
secs. coming home. The excursion
boats bothered both yachts somewhat.

IMMENSE CROWDS.

Fifty Thousand People Have Reasoned
Louisville in Twenty-four Hours.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 10-The rail-
roads estimated that during the night,
and up till noon, they have carried
$4,000 people into Louisville. With
the blocking system on all lines cross
ing the bridges, the trains are han
died very rapidly, and are unloaded at
the most convenient places without
entering the blockades at the depots.
The railroads anticipate their rush will
be during the next "a hours, as most OF
the visitors will be here for the naval
parade. e &
The posts Of many state departments
are quartered in school houses and other
buildings about the city. The schools
were dismissed this week and all school
buildings are used by theveterans. The
regimental reunions will be held in the
state headquarters. The brigade and
other reunions are assigned to various
hotels, public offices and halls.
@ =. General Lawler Arrives. a.
The encampment was opened with
aparade on the arrival Of Commander.
in-Chief Lawler and staff at 1880 a. m.
General Lawler and the Columbian post
of Chicago and other organizations, on
the escort special Monon train were met
at the Union depot by members Of the
committees on invitation and reception,
in carriages. The Kentucky national
guard, local posts and other civic organ
izations escorted General Lawler and
party to the Gault House.
Probably the most important business
that will be transacted at the present
encampment will be the joining of the
of the G.. A. r. in one. order. While it
has not been fully determined to do
this, it will be recommended, and the
sentiment in it's favor is such that there
is hardly doubt Of the contamination
of the plan.

THE NEW SEMINARY.

ST. PAUL, Sept 1.-THE new Catholic
institution is personal tribute to Arch
bishop Ireland from James j. Hill,
president of the Great Northern rail-
way. He contributed every dollar of
the cost of the construction lover $780,:
0OO), personally planned the buildings
and superintendent their construction.
Henceforth this seminary will be the
center of Catholicism in the North
west. It is situated on the banks Of the
Mississippi river, and the new build
ings are admirably adapted to the work
of instruction.. Ten teachers will be
employed, and they are among
the best educated men in the church.
An extensive library Of theological
works has been gathered, which has
completed the equipments Of the build
ings. In addition to the studies proper
to the ministry, and which extend over
six years, the curriculum will comprise
a higher course in science, literature
and political economy The following
chairs are endowed: Biology, physio-;
logical psychology, chemistry and nat
ural philosophy, logic and metaphysics,
apologetics, ethics, dogmatic theology,
moral theology, sacred scripture, eccles-
iastical history. Besides these main
studies, canon law, political economy,
church music and the Languages, includ-
ing Greek and Hebrew, will receive con-
siderable attention. a.

RATES ADVANCED.
Considerable Increase in Freight Tariff
to Montana Points,

Considerable Increase in Freight Tariff
to Montana Points.
ST. PAUL, Sept. "a considerable
increase in freight rates to Montana and
Western territory has been ordered to
20 into effect. This grows out of the
conference held in this city few weeks
ago.
It was announced that important
changes will be made in the freight tar
ifs Of the Northern Pacific, Great North
ern and Union Pacific reaching Mon
tana territory and west, to take effect
Sept. 2. During the past two years
the tariffs to Montana and terri
tory west thereof have been on a
very low basis, the rates to this terri
tory being somewhat affected by the
very low rates made to Pacific coast ter
minals, by reason of the strong compe-
tition Of the water lines between the
Atlantic seaboard and the Pacific coast.
The new rates will restore the condi-
tions to about the normal basis in effect
before the reductions made about the
time the Great Northern line was COM
pleted to the coast in 1892.

Sioux Indians at the Rosebud Agency
Make Threats.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Sept. 10.-The
Sioux at Rosebud agency, under the
leadership of Hollow Horn Bear, pow.
erful and influential chief, have warned
Indian Agent Weight and employees to
vacate the agency within 81 days, and
threaten to burn the agency building.
A determination on the part Of the
Indian agency to reduce the rates paid
Indians for hauling freight from Valen-
tine, Neb., to the agency is the cause Of
the trouble. It is proposed to reduce
the price from 50 to 25 cents per hun
dred. Although a trivial matter in the
eyes of the white people, the Indians
took mortal offense and runners sent to
distant camps brought to the agency
about 5000 angry and excited Indians
The indian agent attempted to appease
the Indians wrath and finally consented
to pay 30 cents per hundred.
The Indians are not satisfied, a,a-l fur.
sher trouble is apprehended. -.

Houses Washed Away and Many People
Homeless.
OTTAWA, Kan, Sept. 10.-Gridley, a
town of 400 people on the Santa Fe road
30 miles southwest Of here, suffered to-
tai destruction Of many of it's best build
ings. While hardly structure in. the
place escaped injury it is believed no
one was seriously hurt. The pecuniary
loss is heavy. About 8 o'clock storm
of wind and rain burst on the town
from the northwest. The wind was
what was known as straight blow and
it's mischief was mainly confined to the
unroofng of buildings. A downpour Of
rain Immediately followed and
amounted to a deluge, IL inches Of
water falling in an incredibly short
time. The rain completed the destruc-
ton that had not been accomplished by
the wind, and in few minutes every
stock Of goods in town had boon soaked
and the household possessions of most
of the inhabitants were in the same con-
dition.
A special from Burlington says that
the storm which did so much damage in
Gridley, this state, extended from the
north to the south end of Coffey county,
destroying scores Of houses, barns and
granaries and greatly damaging or.
chards and crops: a boy in Key West
township named Gridfey was Killed.
George Rodman, his wife and three
children were seriously injured. Mrs.
James and daughter were badly hurt at
Strawn. Many others were slightly in
iurad The streams have risen ram
idly and are all out of their banks, doing
immense damage. The Verdi Girls
river rose IS feet and is still rising. Elk
river is out of its banks all along it's
lower course and is several miles wide
in many places. Elk City, Is miles
west Of here, is entirely under water
and the inhabitants have been forced to
flee for their lives. Houses have been
washed away and many people rem
dered homeless. A great deal Of house
hold furniture and other wreckage has
been washed down the river, showing
that the damage has been great.

Inspector Clausen Says Elevator Mon
@g Cannot Fix Grades. E1&7

@ Cannot Fix Grades. E2s
ST. PAUL, Sept. 1O.-State Grain In
spectOr Clausen has retu, ned from q trip
to Duluth. Asked in regard to the re-
port that a combine had been formed by
the terminal elevator men to beat the
farmers on grain grades, he said:sb #
II know nothing abOt.t it, and If any
exists it would be interesting to know
what it expects to accomplish. Public
warehousemen at terminal points are
obliged to accept the grain on grades es-
tablshed by the department. and they
ere compelled by the provisions of the
grain law to store grain of each grade
separately. The department. must ac-
cept this grain out OF such warehouses
on the same grade under whichit went
into store. When the houses are
emptied at the close of the season the re-
suits will show that the same quantity
Of each grade has been delivered
as was received. By our system Of reg
istration a perfect record Of the exact
amount and grade is kept with each
public house, so that any attempt to
tamper with grades would be discovered
and punished by cancellation Of license
and the, penalty of law. These ware
housemen have nothing to do with es-
tablishing grades, nor have they any in
terest in the matter except to see that
the department. takes out the grain on
the same grade under which it is placed
in store. Under such conditions it is
difficult to see how any such combina-
ton could benefit them or have any such
effect as stated.
Regarding the charge that wheat
which graded No. hard last year was
this year placed at No. Northern, Mr..
Clausen said that a look at the official
records at Duluth would show to the
contrary. For the week ended Aug. 81,
2,16S car loads were received at Duluth,
and Of this SO per cent graded No.
hard and No. Northern. During the
week ending Sept. Z, 3,465 cars received
and 10 per cent graded in the two high
est grades. ~
Mr.. Clausen thought rs per cent of the
crop more or less effected by smut and
all of this would grade below No.
Northern.

ARE PROBABLY DEAD

Fires still Raging Fiercely and Work

capped. 5i% r.
HoUGHToN, Mich, Sept. S. Huge
volumes Of smoke are still issuing forth
from the mouths Of shafts Nos. !, 2 and
3, which shows that the awful fire
which started ir the Osceola copper
mine shortly before noon Saturday is
still raging tiercely, and the bodies OF
the 30 miners entombed are still lying
somewhere below the surface without a
doubt dead, suffocated by smoke and
gas. Captain P. Richards, with a gang
of seven men, went down No. 5 shaft
during the evening and went about 700
feet toward No. shaft, when they had
to turn and flee for their lives on &C
count of the smoke and gas. Some of
these men were very nearly overcome,
only reaching surface -
. In Time to Save Their Lives.
1t is learned that the place where the
fire caught was the worst place that it
could have caught in the whole mine,
and the only place in the mine where
fire of any extent could have caught.
Many Of the men that were working
several levels below the 27th, in which
the fire caug hit, were seen as far up
as the 18th level, working their way
up. Several of the men who escaped
claim to have passed others on the lad
ders who were unable to proceed fur
ther on account Of being overcome with
smoke and gas. At the time the alarm
was sounded over 200 were under
ground, and all could have escaped had
they used proper precaution. Several
seven or eight men who had stopped to
rest and were smoking their. pipes.
When told to hurry to the surface, they
remarked that they had plenty of time
and
Not One Of Them Reached Surface.
The skips were kept running up and
down all day Saturday in order to give
any of the entombed miners a chance to
escape if they could reach the skip alive,
but none came up. There is no danger
of the bodies being burned, as it is gen
orally thought that the men escaped
from the burning shaft to some of the
drifts leading to other shafts and were
overcome by gas and smoke before they
could reach place Of safety. This be-
ing the case, the bodies will be recov-
cred as soon as the fire is gotten under
control and the gases leave the mine.
The shaft has been surrounded all day
by thousands of people, all hoping that
some sign or word would be gotten
from the men, but have now all re-
turned to their homes fearing the worst.
All hope has been given up by the Off
cials Of ever rescuing any of the men
alive.

not only did it accentuate the
extent of the progress Of the Catho-
lie church in the Northwest; not only
did it demonstrate the strength Of the
archepiscopd province of ST. Paul, but
it added to the fame and character OF
St. Paul as an educational center; for to
the Sanity City's list of great educa-
tional institutions was formally added
another, destined to take rank with the
best.
And the day, az it should have been,
was perfect, making it entirely possible
to carry out the plans which have been
in process of incubation for weeks: q
The object of interest, of course, was
Archbishop Satolli, who was invisible
to the laity until the time for the cele-
bration of pontifcal mass arrived, and
then there was a general craning
of necks to enable their owners to catch
a glimpse of the papal ablegate.
Escorted by Archbishop Ireland, the
prelate whom St. Paul best knows, the
representative of Rome entered and eel
ebrated the solemn rites of the church,
while the multitude, numbering at that
time in the neighborbood Of 1000,
stood in humble attention.
The ceremonial of the mass, which pre-
coded while forming part Of the dedi-
catory exercises, was very imposing.
Mgr. SatoM sang the mass himself. He
was arrayed in the robes Of his Office in
the church and was attended dou<
cons, subdeacons, q master Of ceremon-$
les and the usual attendants at such a
function. The sermon was delivered by
DR.. O'Gorman and following after it all
the clerics in attendance formed in pro-
cession and the various buildings on the
grounds were visited separately and
each dedicated. The mass began at 10
o'clock promptly and the exercises lasted
until nearly o'clock. ~ 80.
The Evening Exercises.
The assembly hall in the chapel build
ing was crowded to witness the evening
exercises. It was a remarkable gather.
ing, the majority of those present being
in full evening dress. It was composed
of the leading citizens of the city of all
denominations, among the number be-
ing nearly all the army officers from
Fort Smelling, the judges Of the district
court, prominent railroad men, state
officials and others, with theirwive and
other members Of their families. The
