PROTEST GOES.
Committee Decides That VAL
kyrie FouIed Defender,
And Awards Tuesdays Race on That
Point to the American.
A Result That Was Expected by Everyone and
Gives Satisfaction.

New York, Sept. 1.-THE regatta COM
1nlttec OF the New York Yacht Club
rendered Its decision, late this afternoon,
sustaining Mr.. Iselin's protest against the
Nalkyrie and awarding Tuesdays race to
the Defender.
This result as reached after deliberation
and conference lasting practically all day.
Strong efforts were made by the com
mittee to bring about a mutual agres-
ment to resail the race, but Lord Dun
raven and Mr. Iselin demanded Judgment
on the protest.
ms lett the committee only one of two
thlngs TO DO To decide that the Nalkyric
fouled the Defender, Or the Defender foulcd
the Valkyrie
AS the occurrence was directly under
the committees eyes, and was witnessed
by thousands of spectators. there was ONLY
one decision possible.
Everyone conversant with the sailing
of yachts and the rules of the road at sea
agreed that the British yacht was fault
Dunraven and friends held that his boat
was crowded by the Defender and the ac-
cidcnt was unavoidable.
The committee gave each side ample OF.
portunity to state It's case and took the
testimony of the captains of each yacht,
and others on board
David Henderson, who sailed on the De
fender rs representative of Dunravcn, and
j. +. Bush, who represented the New
York Yacht Club on the Valkyric, each
reported on the occurrence.
All the interested parties were at the
Yacht Club house, until late in the after
noon.
1t was 30 p NJ, when the decision
was announced. 1t was in the form of
reply to Mr.. 1selin's protest and read as
follows:
I'VE beg to acknowledge the receipt of
your letter of yesterday, protesting the
Nalkyrie. We have given the matter our
careful consideration and believe that the
foul occurred through the miscalculation
of distance between the two yachts at u
critical moment
From our observation, sustained by
that of others, who were in position to
see, we find the Valkyrie, in contraven-
ton of section 2, racing rules 16, bore
down on the Defender and foulcd, by the
swing OF the main boom, when luffing to
straighten her course.
We consider that the Defender allowed
the Valkyrie sufficient room to windward
to pass clear of the committee boat. Your
protest Is therefore sustained.
Lord Dunraven accepts the decision and
will have the Nallzyrie at the line, tomor,
row, for the third of the races.

GENTLE UNCLE ABE,
THE Wild Man." Grossly Misrepre-
sented in Published Stories
OF His Alleged Escape from NorridgewOck
iail-The True Story.

South Norridgewock, Sept IL -
Especially The account Of the escape and
capture of Abe Brown, the wild man, -
has been greatly exaggerated by reporters
in the surrounding towns.
The facts of the case are that Abe
wandered away from the door yard where
he has been allowed to take little exercise.
and could not find his way back as has
been since learned, as he inquired the way
of man who thought nothing OF it at the
time, surprising Abe to be tramp. Il
Abe wandered across the river and was
about to enter a house on Main street
when DR.. W. +. Brown and Herbert
Frederic seized him. In the soufile, DR..
Brown was hit with a club, while Abe
was ohoked into submission by the doctor.
He then peacefully let them lead him
back to Jail and seemed pleased when he
came in sight of his old quarters.
