they are friendly to both men and are
not DESTROYS of taking sides. The fight
goes on pleasantly. They each realize that
the other is in earnest, and while they
can often be seen together, they never
discuss politics between themselves. The
fight canno be so amiable for any great
length of time. n 1t may be expected
that these two neighbors will be very
formidably arrayed against each other
before. September comes.
Candidates for Speakership and lead
ership among the Republicans are begin
ming TO come into sight. Assemblyman
Charles Codding of Union, who has
served two terms. and expects to be re-
turned in the fall. would like to be leader
of the House. and so does Assemblyman
Skinner of Union. ~Assemblyman De-
rousse, of Camden. is the first candidate
for Speaker. John c.. Eisele in all prob
ability will be his contestant. Assem-
blyman Henry C. Gruber has in his
mind to be a candidate for Senator in
Hudson, but It is conditioned. If he
ment, for which he is a candidate, he
will be satisfied to remain at home and
let some one else next year champion
the cheav gas bill. James Usher. who
was the Democratic leader in the House,
is going to cross swords with Senator
William Daily for the Senatorial nominal
ton. Senator Stokes of Cumberland,
Senator Hoffman of Atlantic, Senate
Smith of Ocean, and Senator Skirm of
Mercer, the four Republican Senators
whose terms expire in the fall, are all

ROTHESAY, Scotland. July 1, 1S95.-The
enthusiasts who came here last night and
this morning expecting to see the cup
challenger Valkyrie III. test her ca
liabilities against the crack cutters Ailsa
and Britannia were disappointed, The
morning opened unpropitiously with lead
en- sky and a chilly drizZle which obscur-
ed all the outer marks of the Royal
Northern Yacht Clubs quadrangular
course. The Britannia n Ailsa spread
light weather canvas. as the e~asterly
breeze was light. The Ailsa carried an
enormous club topsail, larger than that
of the Britannia. The Valkyrie III. lay
at anchor in Rothesay Bay with her
mainsail furled and covered and nc flag
aloft. Her owner intended to enter her
in the race If the weather had been clear.
He decided not to do so, as a soaking
would not be beneficial to her sails.
There was a little stretch of windward
work, somewhat less Than a mile from
the start. in the Bay TO Bogany Point.
The starting gun sounded at 1880 and
the Britannia and Af1sa headed for the
line. The Prince of Wales cutter got the
weather berth and crossed at 100000,
with the Ailsa close on her lee quarter
at 10:30:16. Balloon f-orestaysails were set
just as the racers got away.
After turning Bogany Point, it was a
broad reach. with the wine on the star
board beam, to the Mount Stewart mark.
The Britannia led the Ailsa past Aseog
by about 40 seconds. The Britannia
rounded the Mount Stewart mark at
1851 10, with the Ailsa so seconds astern.
The Britannia, in the beating and reach
ing had increased her lead by AZ seconds.
