had swung around and fouled the D.. fender's rigging.
 To those who had witnessed the acci. dent and sprang forward at the ominous sound. it seemed as though the Defender trembled with the shock. They saw her topmast bend and her topsail swing over as though it would break away and a groan went up as though the brave boat who had won so noble victory a few days before, was wholly debarred from even an effort to secure the second. Lightning action was necessary to save the topmsst from breaking away con- pletely, for it was already sprung from it's fastening, and Capt. Hoff with a master stoke, taking his boom down to leeward soon manouvered her into a safe position and gave chase.
 The Valkyrie, which had crossed the line first, had gained good lead by the Defenders disaster, and had probably little more than half a mile the ad- vantage at the end of the fret leg in the triangular course over which they sailed. Her gain was something less than four minutes in the beat to wind ward. From that on, however, De- fender while not perceptibly closing the gap between them lessened the time and they crossed the line not more than two minutes apart. The Valkyrie, ac. cording to corrected time. however, from the captain of the Defender, won by just 47 seconds.

 NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-Crippled. but still heeling far over ln her strength and Valkyrie across the finish llne today. Less than half mile separated the two, and an anxious eye kept pace sec ond by second with the time indicators az they moved around, and when it was seen that the Defender had not only lost nothing in the last twenty miles of the course. but had actually gained great shout went up for the gallant vessel. There were cheers for the victor, too, but although Val kyrie was the first challenger since Fl to lead over the home l1ne, the honor of the performance was lost sight of for the time in the grand effort of the American.
 It was grievous accident that ruined the Yankee boats chances. The boats manoeuvered swiftly after the prepara- tory gun had been fired and with the Valkyrie to wind ward Capt. Half made every effort to gain that position. Just UElOTc IOdCulHk bhO iibO WhOh bhO ar kyrie was still to windwaTd and the Defender to leeward length astern, but still overhauling her, the American boat was blanketed so much that her baby jibtopsail and jib shook and Capt. Half, seeing th1s, luffed up little evidently intending to let the other boat go ahead for the purpose of en- abl1ng him to pass under her stern and to windward. Capt. Sycamore at the Valkyrie's tiller noted this move and lufed up also. It was then that thous- ands of watches on the surrounding boats noticed how dangerously close to each others they were, and just at that moment too. snap and rending sound was heard and it was seen that the De- fender's iibtopsail was flying loose in the wind.

Conroy saw Miller alive.
 J. J. Sweeney testified to being called byMrs. Conroy to extract some cart ridges from a pistol brought home by Miller, stating that she was afraid Mi- Ter might harm himself. She told Sweeney of the poison she had taken away from Miller.
 Miss Lydia Gray testified that she heard the shots fired on Saturday night. She heard two men talking in the court below but did not distinguish what they were saying. She stepped to the rear veranda when the shots were fired, but saw no one nor did she hear any cry for help.
 A. c. Willis, the stonemason, was in the city Saturday night. He passed through the alley, and said he saw three men talking in the rear of the railroad office. They were talking about some freight; one of the men was tall and had cane. He heard one of them say T can't do it, but that was all he dis tinguished. A short while after, when he had gotten further down the alley, he heard the pistol shots.
 E. s. Wakelin, the druggist, testi. fed to Miller entering his store on May 29 last, and requested something to get rid of dog. The druggist gave him five grains of morphine. Waldin of the Keystone pharmacy said that Miller had purchased some prussic acid from him in June saying that he wished to kill dog. The next morning Conroy entered and told him not to sell Miller any more poison.

Tn LOOKS
 BETTER! : The Suicide Theory Is Fast Gaining Ground. Coroner's Inquest Is Not
 Yet Completed. JURY ADJOURNS ONE DAY. Many Very Important Witnesses Were
 Examined. Conroy Tells What He
 Knows of the
 Case. In Some Respects the Case Is Still Very Mysterious-Con- roy Released From Confinement.

Interest in the coroner's inquisit;on to ascertain how J. H. Miller came to his death has not lapsed but on the con- trary is as intense aa on the morning alter the deed. The jury met again at 10 o'clock yesterday morning; the first witness to be placed on the stand was Dan Conroy.
 He testified that he was auditor of the M. & P. railroad and had known Miller since 1887. Said Miller was 30 years old and was born in Sacramento, Cal. Is personally acquainted with Miller's mother but did not know of any other relatives. Stated that he last saw Miller alive a few minutes after 10 o'clock on Saturday night. He had attended lodge until 10 o'clock that night then came down town and met Chas. Greenleaf and in company with him went into the Cabinet saloon. Miller was in the saloon shaking dlce with the bartender and invited witness and Greenleaf to take drink. After the drinks he and Greenleaf started out the rear door and WAS called back by Miller, who insisted on them having another drink. Greenleaf then went out and Miller and Conroy passed through the rear of the saloon and stood talking back of the M. & P. office about the excursion to Maricopa the next morning. Witness said he then left him and had gone about twenty feet when he heard the report of pis- tol. He turned hastily around and saw the flash of the second shot and saw Miller fall to the ground. He then went around the alley to Center street and went to Eschman's drug store and asked Furl, the clerk, to telephone for Dr. Helm. He did not remembe talk ing to or meeting anybody on coming from the scene of the deed. He only left him a few minutes before the shots were fired and does not remember of hearing the second shot. Miller said before Conroy left him that he was not going to Maricopa as he did not have to. Said Miller did not appear exactly sober when they left Kelly's saloon for he staggered several times before going. Did not rememb Der telling Frank Cox or Mike Hurley that Miller was sitting on the railing and jumped off and shot himself. Neither he or Miller uttered any cry of help.
 After the shooting Conrov went back to the body and told somebody the re mains ought to be taken to the under takers. They never had cross word between them, and Conroy knew of nc reason why Miller should commit sui eide. He loaned Miller $50 on Thurs day last and gave him check on ths National bank for the amount in his own name. Miller said he wanted thu money to pay g board bill. He saw some one in the office about three min utes before the shooting, which he tool to be MT. Gordon, and did not see nln again. Miller, he said, had roomed a

ENTERPRISING MERCHANT.
B. Heyman, the Furniture Deal-
 CT, Returns Home.
He Had Been Travelling in the East for Three Months, on Business
 for Himself and the Valley.

B. Heyman, the enterprising furniture dealer, returned yesterday morning after an absence of three months. He has visited all the principal cities in the east, and purchased most excellent lot of furniture.
 Although his time was greatly taken up in business while away, still he lost no opportunity to do some missionary work for Phoenix. He was interviewed by REPUBLICAN reporter yesterday re- garding his trip. 1T find in some places in the east" remarked MT. Heyman, "thst Arizona is country of which very little is known, and those whom had occasion to converse with regarding the country were very much astonished when I mentioned the wonderful le. sources of this section of Arizona. Many were incredulous, for the Arizona Kicker had spread it's fame abroad and the only thing many thought the country was good for was large stamp ing ground for bloodthirsty Indians and the 'irrepressible and wicked cowboy "While in Chicago" continued MT. Heyman, "I was walking down prin- cipal street one day when some grapes in @ fruit store attracted my attention. I stopped immediately for 1 recognized the Arizon. production at glance. I inquired of the fruit dealer where the grapes came from and be said from California. I picked up one of the boxes and saw that they were from Glendale, Ariz. In New York, I also saw some of the grapes and the ma jority of the dealers were of the opinion that the fruit came from California. You bet. soon disabused their minds of that Idea and told them of what we could do in the fruit line until their eyes bulged out"
 MT. Heyman finds that in the larger cities Phoenix is much spoken of and. |. in fact, was attracting considerable at tention and is of the opinion that large influx of eastern visitors will ar rive this winter. He stopped on his
 way home in San Francisco and learned that where Arizona securities went peg ging few years ago they are now
 sought after.
