Lord Dunraven, in replying to the
gentlemen who made the presentation
said that the occasion was one of the
happiest moments of his life He then
spoke at length, giving his views ON the
recent yacht races, detailing incidents
connected Herewith, and the reasons
for his withdrawal from the race. Re-
ferring to his recent statements, he
said:
Il have not made an accusation
against anybody. 1 mentioned a fact
which l believed to be true, namely,
that the Defender sailed the first race
more deeply immersed than when she
was measured the day previously, and
| gave what were my reasons for so
thinking. OF that fact l have not had
and have not now, the slightest doubt
Whether ] am right or wrong is a mat
ter of opinion, and 1 must, fear, al
ways remain so, seeing that the only
possible opportunity of absolutely prov
ing or disproving the justice of my
complaint was not utilized"

citation OF Unions TO Come Up.
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 1.-Representa-
tives of the various Baptist Young Peo-
pies Unions of the southern states, to
total of several hundred, met here
today. The call for the convention was
issued by DR.. B. D. Gray, pastor of the
First Baptist church of this city.
DR.. Gray is also president of a com
mittee of leading southern Baptists ap-
pointed at a meeting recently held in
Macon, Ca, looking to a general south
ern convention of Baptist Young Peo-
pies Unions, for the purpose of organ
izing southern association of these
unions, distinct from the Young Peo-
pies Baptist Union of America. At the
last meeting of the latter organization,
held in Washington in May, this ques-
ton came up, but the convention did
not look with favor upon the move
ment. 1t was then determined by the
southern unions to take independent
action, and to form an organization
which should act as an auxiliary to
the southern Baptist convention. The
new association will have a member
ship of over $4,000.
