London, June SO-The Times tomor-
row will say: Valkyrie yesterday
opened her racing in a very remarka-
BILE way and in all probability she is a
wonderfully fast vessel. She had one
little burst in a weighty breeze and,
considering her wonderful pile of can
vas, she showed more stability than
was generally expected, and her bow
wave gave ample evidence Of the high
speed she could attain when hard
driven. Her debut was distinctly
satisfactory and great things may be
expected in the future.

In the tenth section the contract
says:
'The Denver company (meaning the
Denver & Rio Grande Railway COM
pany) is to control. fix and regulate
rates on all local business, including pas
senger business, between the points on
the joint track, including the terminals
thereof, and the rates on all business,
including passenger business, arising on
the joint track between Bessemer and
Walsenburg and destined to points be-
yond it reached by the lines of both
parties, and on business arising at such
competing points and destined to such
points Of said joint tracks" Bessemer
In this case means Pueblo, as the two
cities are practically one.
1t Is also agreed that both parties
shall have access 10 the coal mines on
the lines of each in the territory men
toned above.
The term of the contract is during
the life of the receivership of the Gulf
road, and, after the road may have pass
ed out Of the hands of the courts, 1t Is
to have six months in which to consider
a renewal, and a renewal may be made
for period of not less than ten years,
and the Rio Grande must submit. The
rent Of $S5,000 year is to be paid in
equal monthly instalments, and where
default may arise the Rio Grande can
give thirty days notice and oust the
Gulf.

The Bull Fight.

Gillett, Colo, Aug. 24.-People are ar
irving from all sections of the camp in
stages, wagons, buggies, horseback
and on foot. All of the livery stables
in Cripple Creek did not have n horse
or rig of any kind which could be Sc
cured for love or money at an early
hour this morning.
Adjutant General Moses and Assist
ant Klee arrived in camp late last night
to represent the governor. They were
attired in uniforms, and when they
appeared on the streets of Cripple
Creek this morning, they were guyed
numerically by the newsboys and
good-naturedly chaffed by acquain-
tancces.
Adjutant General Moses said: 81 was
sent here by the governor and will wire
him this evening the event Of the day
Do not think the executive will take
any hand in the affair. If there is n
bull fight, and am convinced that theri
will be, think the sheriff and local of
ficers will be able to attend to any in
fraction of the laws. The killing of n
bull certainly cannot be any greater
crime than cruelty to animals, and 1t
will not require the state militia to
place the parties who take part in the
killing under arrest"

WHEAT CROP ESTIMATES.
Big Yield for Minnesota and tho Tw
Dakotas.

Big Yield for Minnesota and tho Two
Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 26.-The an
nual wheat crop estimate for Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota, COM
piled by H. v. Jones, editor Of the Jour
nal, was published to-day. The total
yield Of wheat In the three states Is
placed at 166, 100000 bushels, divided
as follows: Minnesota, G3,OOO,OOO; South
Dakota, 39OOO,OOO; North Dakota, 63,-
100000. This is gain of $4,000, 900
from last year for North Dakota and
Minnesota. The acreage is placed by
Mr.. Jones at 3,325,0O each for Mime
sofa and North Dakota, and 100000
for South Dakota; five per cent. reduc-
ton from last year being allowed for
the two states frst named, with no re-
duction for South Dakota, the de-
creased acreage in the northern coun-
ties of that state being Offset by an in
crease in the southern counties. These
figures of acreage are considerably in
excess of the government acreage, but
the yields Of four years appear to ver-
ify them. The crop is placed from TO-
100000 to $4,000, 600 bushels below that
Of 1891, but the above estimated yield
removes all doubt as to the "bumper'
proportions of the crop, although the
figures are now more conservative than
some of the estimates made.

PRINTERS WON THE CASE.

Judge Butler Decides Against the State
Auditor, Who Appealed.
Denver, Aug. 26.-Judge Butler, ii.
division I. of the district court, this
morning decided that the plaintiffs in
the Smith Brooks Printing company
case against Clifford @. Parks, stats
auditor, were entitled to a peremptory
writ Of mandamus compelling the audi.
tor to issue certain warrants for the
payment of state printing. In Decem.
Der, 1894, the secretary of state placed
an order for printing with the company.
and the latter presented itemized bills
amounting to about $4,000 for the work.
Some Of these Ills were protested by
the auditor, who claimed that much OF
the printing was excessive, particularly
$4,000 copies of the teachers registers
and extra copies Of the reports of the
state board of agriculture, the state in.
spector of mines, the adjutant general
and the fish and labor commissioners
The auditor held that more copies OF
these reports were printed than were
needed, and in rejecting them acted
upon the laws of 1891, referring to "all
necessary printing"
Judge Butler decided in favor of the
printers on the ground that the secre
tary had authority to make contracts.
An appeal was taken to the supreme
court and ten days given in which ia
file bill of exceptions. The appeal
bond was fixed at $4,000.

srANLEY's MAIDEN SPEECH.
Speech of the African Explorer In the
Hous, of Commons.

Speech of the African Explorer In the
Hous, of Commons.
London, Aug. 24.-The House Of
Commons this week has been mainly
occupied with discussions of foreign
matters, chiefly to points relating to
Egypt and Siam, during which Mr..
Henry NJ. Stanley, the African ex-
plorer and formerly New York re-
porter, now a member of the North
Lambeth division of London in the
Union interest, made his maiden speech
in the house.
Mr.. Stanley rose>during a discussion
Of the Egyptian question, and he
strongly denounced the propositions
looking to an evacuation Of Egyptian
territory by the British troops. His
first speech in parliament was equal to
his reputation, and contrary to general
usages, on the occasion of maiden
speeches, there was nearly a full house,
or about as full rs 1t could be consider
ing the deserted condition of London.
The members listened to the new mem
ber with rapt attention. Mr.. Stanley
was attired in well fitting gray frock
coat. His utterances were rather thick
but he spoke rapidly and to the point
The explorer, it was noticed, was much
hurt when Mr.. James Parkersmith,
Unionist member of the Patrick divi-
sion Of Lanarkshire, who spoke on the
same subject later in the day. intimated
that Mr.. Stanley was trading on his
reputation as an explorer of Africa.
The latter subsequently warmly repu-
dated this assertion.

dence could be secured that they have
been killing big game. Professor Hatch.
er, r. Forsythe Little and s. Boyer
Davis, Of the expedition, reached the
railroad at Casper yesterday on their re
turn trip from Yellowstone Park. The
trail taken by the party was across the
Big Horn and Wind river mountains,
and for several days they had to wade
through deep snow and drag their
horses and camp outfits through snow
filled gulches. They reported having
killed many deer and antelope, and
these reports reaching the governor, he
at once ordered their arrest The gov
ernor asserts that the state game laws
which prohibit killing Of big game eX-
cept during September, October and No
vember, will be enforced against whites
as well as against Indians.
Before they could be arrested they
crossed the eastern boundary of the
state.

TWENTY TWO VICTIMS.
DIED IN THE GUMRY RUINS.
piete. this List-Lo sch.r, the Engineer,
Arrested at An;onito-

Denver, Aug. 24.-Very little work
was done in the ruins of the Gumry no
tel, yesterday, says the Republican. The
large force of workmen who have been
taking out the debris under the Lirec-
ton Of the city authorities were dis
charged yesterday morning, and only
four men kept at work during the day.
They were directed by Building 1nspec-
tor Charles in digging about the corners
Of the ruins where it was thought some
thing might have been overlooked dur
ing the hasty work of the previous days
The rear poi ton of the ruined build
Ing has now been pretty thoroughly
gone over and the coroner and the au-
thorities are of the opinion that there
are no more bodies there There may be
some still in that part of the wreck far
ther to the front, which has not been
excavated on account of the danger
from the portion of the building still
standing, but there is no odor emanat-
Ing from the place to betray them and
it is thought it is hardly possible that
any bodies should be in that place. The
coroner is quite positive that the list of
dead is now complete, and with the
positive statement of George Blake
that tx. one unidentified body at the
morgue is that of his brother, A. s.
Blake, the mystery of all the missing is
cleared up. Blake will take the re-
mains which he says are those Of his
brother to Pueblo for interment.
w. D. Todd, who represents the In
ternational Trust company as admins
traitor of the estate of Peter Gumry,
took charge Of the place yesterday, and
from today on the work Of tearing
down the wreck of the building and re-
moving the rest of the debris will pro-
coed under his direction.
When the members of the jury en-
panneled by Coroner Martin appeared
at the morgue yesterday evening at the
adjourned hour, they were met by no.
tice of release until further orders. The
coroner says he desires to make per-
sonal Investigations before commencing
the Inquest, and for this reason will not
call the jury together until some day
next week.
Those who ought to know say that
the late Peter Gumry left will and
that 1t provides that his estate shall be
given to Mr.. and Mrs. r. G. Greiner. In
the absence of this document, this is
largely matter of conjecture, but a
nice legal point comes In right there.
The county court has appointed the pub
lie administrator to take charge of the
estate, and should will be found dis
posing of the property as aforesaid the
question of who died first becomes very
important. II it could be shown that
Mr.. Gumry passed away even n minute
before Mr.. and Mrs. Greiner, then the
heirs of the latter are entitled to the es-
tate If 1t is shown that they died at the
same moment then the estate goes to
the Gumry heirs If there be any, and If
not, 1t reverts to the state.

ANOTHER VERY DRY SUNDAY.
Vigilance Exercised by Police and Mem
bcrs of Societies.


bcrs of Societies.
New York, Aug. 25.-This was prob
ably the driest Sunday In the history of
the municipality, at any rate, the police
officials all made reports to that effect.
In spite Of the promises Of the Wine
and Liquor Association that they would
urge all members of that body to close
their saloons to-day, instead Of waiting
until next Sunday, the police in no wise
relaxed their vigilance, and men in uni
forms were stationed at all suspected
places. An army Of police officers in
citizens attire were on the constant
lookout for violators of the law.
The saloOnkeepers were extraordinar-
lily vigilant and suspicious of anyone
in search of a glass Of beer or whisky.
In several instances arrests Of saloon.
keepers for interfering with an officer
were made.
In addition to the members Of the de
partment there were many who had
volunteered to assist the police in
searching out evidences of violations of
the law, by notifying the captains OF
saloons believed to be doing business.
Superintendent bennett, of the Park
hurst Society. was early on deck, and
fitted about the east side of the town,
while members of the City Vigilance
League and members of some Of the
temperance societies of several of the
fashionable churches were active.

Irish fractional Fights.

Detroit, Mich, Aug. pa wholesale
delivery of prisoners confined in one of
the wards of the county Jail was frus-
trated this evening by the accidental
discovery Of a tunnel thirty feet long
and large enough to contain a man in
STOPPING posture. The tunnel leads
from the cell occupied by David Vixen
to and under the outer wall of the Jail.
Vixen Is now known to be the leader
In the attempt. He is awaiting trial on
the charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses.
The tunnel was SO nearly completed
that it is believed that the men would
have gained their freedom tomorrow in
the day time, while the cell doors in
that department would have been left
open into the corridors. The prisoners
evidently worked for weeks upon the
tunnel.
