wood finished first in S5:11, Seba second
in 1857 and Cuckoo third in 42:o7. The
corrected time was: Camanche, 1884;
Dirigo, 30:55; Favorita, 30:55K; Norwood,
34:37; Seba, "a :57: Cuckoo, 36:07.
The Camanche therefore won by almost
a minute, with the Dirigo, which is
really much the fastest boat OF the lot,
second, but traction of a second before
the Favorita.
Ferris Hartman, whose vast knowledge
of yachts and yachting acquired during
his residence in Sausalito appalled, the
Stockton boatmen, was appointed COM
puter of the official time. He is still try
ing to explain to the Dirigo's owner how
he made that boat allow the Camanche
two minutes and nine seconds on four
and half-mile course at the rate OF fifteen
seconds per mile for each foot the Dirigo
is longer than the Camanche when the
latter craft sanded the track and carried
real sailors in uniform and finished third,
while the Dirigo was first. The amiable
comedian will probably have to hire an
accountant to get his books straight.
Lynn, member of the Stockton Ath-
letic Association, won the junior shell
race postponed from yesterday. Foley, his
only competitor, did not finish.

LESSONS OF THE GREENBACKs.
Great Temptation to Flood the Coun
try With a Harmful Circulation
WithStood.

PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. 10. - Hon.
Thomas b. Beed closed the campaign
here at an immense meeting at the City
Hall tonight. Mr.. Reeds voice was in
excellent form, and he held the audience
Interested until the close Of his speech.
In discussing the currency question he
said:
II remember another time when was
before an audience like this in this place
We had gone OH in our career OF pros
perity from 1868 to 1873; enterprises had
been spread all over the country; more
miles of railroad had been built every year
than were ever built all the world over
since the beginning OF time. We out
stripped our own pace, and in 1873 there
came crash.
Then we attempted to get out of our
trouble, and it was very serious trouble,
because we had currency that had its
foundation in the faith of the people in
the payment by the Government some
time or other.
We had every temptation then to
listen to the men who said to US Issue
more green backs, let US have larger cur
rency and then we will go forward The
mptation was great. We were suffering
from the slow depreciation which resulted
from lifting greenbacks from 80 cents on
dollar to 100 cents on dollar. 1t would
have been great blessing to some of us
who were carrying debts at the time if this
could have been an issue, and great COM
fort to some of US, but we resisted the
temptation.
owe said, When the United States says
this is dollar and they are big enough to
make it dollar, just that moment it
ought TO be g dollar, and shall be- And
what was our reward? 1t was fourteen
years of the most mad prosperity that the
sun ever shone upon.
From 1879 to 1892 the United States
was great in wealth, dignity and honor.
say TO You tnat if ever nation could see
from its own experience that it pays to be
honest it is the United States of America
The experience of the world has proven to
us beyond peradvenlure that the attempt
to issue government money every time a
speculative period has set in and burst
means destruction and ruin out of which
there is no way except bankruptcy. Now
we have got to learn that it is not wise to
lower the currency one-half in order to
exc out speculation. l think we shall
learn IL.

FIERCE TROPICAL CYCLONE.
Sweeps Over the Entire New England
Coast-Gre0t Destruction of Prop
erty Is Reported.

NEW YORK, ". Y, Sept. 10.-A fierce
tropical cyclone swept down last night on
the east Atlantic coast, spreading ruin IN
It's wake. 1t passed north of the Bahamas
on Monday, and stole stealthily along the
Gulf stream Tuesday, but did not make
Itself felt along the coast until to-day.
Tonight terrible surfs are beating down
on Long Island and Southern and Western
New England, with the center OF disturb
ance off Nantucket.
The entire New England coast from
East port to Block Island is affected, while
the surf, aided by one of the highest tides
OF the year, is threatening destruction to
hundreds OF seashore cottages and other
property along the water fronts.
The storm did great damage at Rock
away Beach. Bathing-houses were torn
from heir piles and smashed to frewood
py the waves that ran mountain high.
Ihe wind and waves threatened to destroy
hall the places along the ocean front.
Repeats from all the towns along the
Long Island seashore tell of damage done
by the cyclone. 1t is the same story every
where-boats smashed on the beach or
sent adrift, bathing-houses destroyed and
damage to the hotels that face the ocean.
The torpedo boats Cushing and Stiletto
were both aground near the torpedo sta
ton at Newport, R. l., to-day. The wind
along the Rhode Island coast is blowing a
gale and the sea is tremendous.

MADE A WORLDS RECO RD
Fastest Mile Ever Paced in a
Race Negotiated by John
r. Gentry.
He Beat Star Pointer Only a Few
Inches for a $4,000 Purse
in POI I.2

GLENS FALLS, N. Y, Sept 10. = A
perfect day and last track drew crowd OF
5000 persons to the racecourse to-day.
The event of the card was the match race
between John R. Gentry and Star
Pointer. The race from start to finish
was of the closest and most exciting sort,
and when after the second heat, which
Gentry won by short head, the time,
2 :01z was marked up and it was realized
that the worlds record was broken, the
spectators madly cheered the king of
PAGERS and his driver, Andrews.
Before the first heat betting was two to
five against Gentry. They got away from
the second score, Scar Pointer at the pole.
He led to the hemestretch, when Gentry
slowly forged ahead. inch by inch, and
won the first heat by a nose. Time by
quarters. :o3sz-1 :35-2:09s4.
In the second heat the excitement cuI-
minated. The horses got away on the first
score and went around the track neck and
neck. with the precision of machines,
neither gaining nor losing, in the breath
less silence of the crowd. Just before
reaching the wife Gentry made another
magnificent squirt and won by a neck,
amid Wild enthusiasm. The time bv quar-
ters was: 81, 1:02, 1872, 2:011z, the last
eighth being the fastest ever paced.
The announcement was received with
renewed cheers by the crowd, which was
| beside itself with enthusiasm.
The victory was no less credit to Star
| Pointer, who gained on his previous rec
| ord more than did Gentry. The climax
was over with this heat. The horses were
| tired. and the race seemed, by tacit agree
ment, to belong to Gentry, who won the
| third easily by length. Time, 2:053I.
Andrews drove Gentry and Clary ham
| died the reins over Star Pointer. The race
was for $4,000 purse and the Breeders
Association of this place offered $500 extra
| il the worlds record was broken.

County, which had normal Republican
majority OF 2000 a poll Just completed
has shown that Bryan will carry it by
1900 majority. Mr.. Campau said the Pop
ulists and Prohibitionists were solid for
Bryan, while 600 Republicans in that
county were actively supporting the
fusion ticket. He counted Michigan safe
for Bryan.
A letter from John s. Bronx, chairman
of the Democratic county committee of
Rochester, n. Y, states the silver senti-
ment among the farmers and workingmen
in that part of the State is simply amaz-
ing. He adds: "In one township thirty
representative men of this county who
were formerly Republicans will vote for
Bryan, while in the adjoining townships
the silver Republicans are still more nu-
merous."
A German department has been added
to the headquarters, Felix Senff, local
German newspaperman, being placed in
charge. Clubs are being organized in
Chicago and throughout the West by
Theodore Gestefeldt, former Repub-
Hcan and ex-City Clerk.

son, Vlce-Presidential candidate, spoke
here to-day to an audience of 1000 people
He began by reviewing the history of the
Peoples party from its inception, saying
that the West and South. the great agri-
cultural sections of the country, had
joined hands in the great work of securing
the rights of the people. Then he made
an appeal to voters to stand by the Popu-
list party until the corporations had all
been downed. Referring to Sewall's can
didacy he was exceedingly bitter saying
II Will come of the ticket when my boy
gets out and makes speeches against me,
as Sewall's boy is making speeches against
him. A man who cannot carry his own
family carries no political strength. Our
people would not consent to my coming
OFF the ticket. 1 say that am not here to
be run off the ticket. l would not take an
electoral vote that should not be given to
BRYAN, too"
He concluded by saying that come veal
or come woe, he was for William J. BRYAN,
and that four years hence he would be
found as now-fghting for the People s
party and its integrity. He left the city
fer lola, Kans., where he speaks to-
