A NEW OCEAN RECORD.
Fast Work of the st. Paul from South.
ampton.

New York, June 5.--The American
line steamer st. Paul was sighted east
of Fire Island at 1922 o'clock this af-
ternoon and crossed the bar at Sandy
ampton on Saturday last, May so, at
about noon, passing the Needles about
six days, five hours and forty-one min
utes. The best previous western record
of the st. Paul was made on her last
voyage, which ended on May 16, and
was six days nine hours five minutes
The best previous westward record
from Southampton by any ship was six
days, seven hours, fourteen minutes
The st. Paul has therefore on her pres
ent trip reduced her own best time by
about three and half hours and at
the same time made a new westward
record from Southampton.
The record to or from Southampton
was held by the New York up to to-
day, having been made in September.
1894. Previous to that date it was held
by the Columbia, her time being six
Gays, nlT1e HOuIS anu lWenly-IlNe 1n11l-
utes. The best eastward record was
made by the Fuerst Bismarck in 1898,
the time being six days ten hours and
fifty-five minutes.
1t was not until the last few voyages
that the st. Paul seemed to be able to
make fast time. She was often in diff
culties, a breaking of more or less i'm
portance having occurred on several
trips The worst Of all her mishaps
was her stranding at Long Branch,
where she remained for ten days before
she was f1oated. During this spring she
has been more fortunate and has been
increasing her speed with each voyage
There is no doubt that she has broken
the hourly rate of speed from south
ampton, which was also held by the
New York, 20,26 knots, and it is thought
that she has beaten the best avera ge
by the Majestic or the Teutonic, which
is 2041 and 20. .35 respectively The best
hourly rate of speed is now held by the
Lucania, 22.01; the Campania is next,
with 21.S2.

IN THE HANDS or THE JURY.

AT Ten O'Clock Last Evening No Agree
ment in the Olney Case Had Been
Reached.
Willimantic, June 5-The arguments
were concluded this afternoon in the
the case of the state against jeremiah
Olney, ex-school fund commissioned,
and Judge Wheeler began his charge to
the jury, which was concluded at 4:40.
The courts charge to the jury was
an exhaustive one, and it is thought by
some to have favored the state.
He charged the jury that if it should
conyict on one of the alternate counts
it should acquit on the other, as they
are similar in nature, SO it could not
convict on more than ten of the twenty
counts claimed by the state. The jury
retired and remained out until $40,
when the judge recalled them and in
formed them that they would not be
allowed to separate until they agreed
or were otherwise discharged.
At 10 p. m. the jury reported dis
agreement, but the judge sent them out
again to remain in consultation till to-
morrow at $50.

REPORT ON THE SENATE BILL
VAS REPORTED BY MIR. DINGLEY OF
WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE.

1t Says That the Bill Takes Away From
the Secretary of the Treasury the Power
to Borrow Either Gold or Silver to Main
tain the Coin Redemption Fund-Re-
ported Back With Recommendation
That 1t Be Not Passed.
Washington, June 5.-Mr. Dingley OF
Maine of the ways and means commit
tee, presented the report of the major
ity on the senate bill to prohibit the
further issuance of interest bearing
bonds" The report points out that the
Dill proposes to repeal SO much of the
resumption act as authorizes the sec
retary of the treasury to borrow money
to maintain the redemption fund. 1t
shows that the plenary power embodied
in the resumption act was given to the
secretary not only because the knowl-
edge that he had such bower would
inspire confidence in the public credit,
but also because eXigencies for the re-
plenishment os the fund would arise
when congress was not in session.
The report says to deprive the secre-
tary of the power to borrow for the
maintenance ot the redemption fund
when there has been for three years a
large deficiency of revenue raises the
query whether it is not the deliberate
intention oe the promoters of this bill
to plunge the government into repudia-
ton and depreciate the greenbacks.
The report answers the various excuses
put forth for the passage of the bill and
criticises the senate for failing to pass
the financial and revenue measures
this argument it says:
Our criticism of the secretary of the
treasury is not that he has used the re-
deemed United States legal tender notes
to meet the deficiency in the absence OF
the revenue and authority to borrow for
that distinct object, but that the admin
istration and secretary have refused to
recognize the fact that the revenue is
still insufficient to meet the expendi-
lures, and have discouraged all steps
to provide sufficient revenue. The re-
port further says:
Practically the bill takes away from
the secretary of the treasury the power
to borrow either gold or silver to main
tain the coin redemption fund, in the
face of the fact that the government
owns only 2s,oOO,0oo silver dollars and Al
little over 1oo,ooO,ooo gold that can be
used for redemption purposes. The in
evitable result of such a reckless course
would be Reputation by the govern
ment, depreciation of the currency and
ouch panic in the country as was new
er before experienced"
The bill was reported back with q
recommendation that it be not passed.
The two democratic members, Turner
of Georgia, and Cobb of Missouri, con-
cur with the thirteen republican mem
bers in the adverse recommendation,
but without indorsing the report.

V. Shelton, John P. Perry and Harry
c. Palmer. Each Sunday school in the
division had band of music.
The ceremonies began with the toll
ing Of the church bells at IL o'clock,
which was the signal for the children
to start for their respective Sunday
schools.
Praise services were held in all the
churches. At the conclusion of the SER
vices the march began.
The Sunday schools which made up
the Prospect park division held services,
as did the others, in the churches. The
schools all gathered on Anniversary
Hill, in the park, where they held musi-
cal services.
The reviewing stand was erected at
| the upper end of the meadow. On the
stand, according to arrangements, were
Governor Morton Mayor Wurster, ST.
| las M. Giddings, president of the Sun
day School union; J. Edward Swan
strom, president of the board of educa-
| ton; Park Commissioner Timothy L.
Woodruff, Police Justice Charles E.

hour. Captain Treadway said that the
men were all fit and that the crew was
one of the strongest Yale ever had on
the water. He had confidence in the
Yale stroke. He said:
"The improvement of the crew con-
sidering the short time we have been
rowing is all that can be expected.
"The crew is in fair shape, and with
three weeks coaching by Captain Cook
on the other side the eight will be as
well prepared as any crew that has been
in a Yale Harvard race. We have
strong hopes of success, but win or
lose we will have no excuses to make" "
The Berlin will sail at II o'clock to-
morrow morning, and the crew expect
to be at Henley on the 18th. All the ar
rangements for exercise on board have
been perfected The men will only do
such work as will keep them in condi-
ton during the voyage, which Bob Cook
thinks will be beneficial.

The Stallion Won by Nose-Great Ex-
citement,

citement.
New York, June Sc. M. Kellogg 5
New York stallion Azmon won a good
race to-day at Fleetwood park, defeat
ing the fast mare Island Girl and all
the other circuit flyers of the 2:1S class
in straight heats. Island Girl started
a favorite on the strength of her bril-
liant performance at the Brooklyn
meeting last week, but she pulled too
hard to last and Azmon had not much
trouble to outfinish her after the first
heat.
In the opening mile Island Girl led all
the way to within a few yards of the
wire, Azmon trotting in second position.
The stallion came on with brilliant
burst of speed in nose and nose amid
great excitement. Jettie displayed more
speed than any other horse in the race,
but her driver, John Turner, apparently
wanted second money only and he got
it by outfinishing Island Girl in the last
two heats.
John Kinney made no visible effort
to win the 2:30 race with the fast gray
gelding Grateful until the judges warn
ed him just before the third heat in off
hand style. Miss Anne took record of
2:19% in the first winning heat of her
turf career, but she was not in condi-
ton to last out the race to the end.
Newsboy won the match race for pac-
erS.
