COMMENTS ny n>GLrsHMHN,
They Unanimously Anticipated the
Committees Decision.

London, Sept. ll.--With one excep-
tion the. London evening papers to-
day exhibit general and sportsman
like spirit in commenting upon the out
come OF the second race between De-
fender and Valkyrie Ill. and express
the wish that the race not be given
to Nalkyrie. The same spirit charac-
terizes the talk among yachtsmen.
Fear is expressed that the excellent
showing made by Defender in her
crippled condition has practically set
tied the contest against the British
boat.
The Evening News says; Engllshmen
cannot stomach victory tainted with
unfair conditions and would rather
see Valkyrie return home without a
single race than dying flag unfairly
won.
The Star says; Neither Lord Dun
raven nor any other Englishman would
wish to receive an advantage by q MIS-
hap. From yesterdays race II seems
clear that we cannot gain the cup TINS
year.
The Pail Mail Gazette this evening
saws. II Defender was put at dis
advantage by the accident we snail
find little dissatisfaction II the de-
cision favors Nalkyrie.
The Yachting world In Its Issue TO-
morrow will say; Two races VIII nave
been lost. one actually and the second
virtually. Whatever may be the var
dict about the protest, we cannot pos
slhiv doubt that the Defender was u
moral victor. We must console our
aelves by admitting that the Hersehons
boat Is exceptionally adapted to ts
purpose. ft

We beg TO acknowledge the receipt OF

At 9:3O o'clock last night the jury in the
Quinn murder case brought in verdict OF
guilty of murder in the first degree. This
is the first verdict OF the kind in this county
for ten years. The case was concluded
yesterday evening and the case given to
the jury at 6 o'clock.
The evidence given in the trial was pure
ly crcumstantial, but was OF such a con-
vncing nature that an extremely strong
case was made.
ON the morning of April 90 last, the body
of Patsy Clayton, COlored woman ~
years of age. was found in the Kaw river
Just above the Fifth street bridge in Ar
mourdale. The woman had been shot in
the head with a pistol. When the coroners

Warren Hubbard, an Argentine police Off

to warrant a conviction He had borrow ed
a revolver from a friend on The evening
preceding the murder, and afterward re
turned the weapon wih one cartridge

on that night. but this was proven to be
watched house
that night expecting him to return home
with stolen chickens. The case was
strongly fought on both sides ana much in

When the jury filed into Judge Alden's
court at $3.50 last night the room was

show any emotion whatever when the
verdict of guilty of murder in the first de-
