SILVER JUBILEE REG ATTA,
Results in the Several Events on the
 Schuyl<iIi Yesterday.

Philadelphia, Aug. 13.-The first days races in the silver jubilee regat- ta of the National Association of Anna teur Oarsmen were rowed to-day over the national course on the Schuylkill river in Fairmount park.
 The day was perfect for sculling and the course, skirted on either side by the picturesque river drives of Fair mount park, was almost without a rip
 pie on its surface. There was a light
 breeze Every precaution was taken to police the course and keep it clear of river craft, and in only one instance
 was there any interference with the racing. This was during the interme- diate eight. The New York Athletic club had the outside water and had passed the three-quarter flag in close ! race for third place, when a yawl boat shot across it's bow and struck 1t hard slightly bruising Bogarts arm The crew stopped rowing and claimed that the accident was deliberate on the part of the man in the yawl. The police im- mediately placed him under arrest. The judges did not call the other crews back. and New York was unable to
 finish.
 Much comment was indulged in over Ten Eyck's decision not to compete in
 the senior singles.

WHEAT TAXES 4 TUMBLE.
Values Dropped Two Cents During the
 Days Operation.


 New York, Aug 13.-Wheat values to- day tumbled two cents from last nights close and three cents from yesterdays high point of 90& cents for September The decline was attended by heavy un- loading of long wheat It piled into the market from all quarters, influenced by weakness abroad, particularly at Paris, where flour prices broke 75 points from last night. The best traders were prepared for the decline, but the rank and file of the bulls opposed 1t vigor- ously and even succeeded in forcing September at the opening up from 89A to 90 cents.
 It was useless, however, for with the unsa tisfactory news from abroad and loss of bull leaders at Chicago, prices declined and the weakness continued with few reactions right up to the close. The lowest price on September was S7& cents, and the final quotation S8 cents. Yesterday foreign buyers were shut out by the sensational advance, but to-day's drop caught more good or ders, about fifty loads being worked here and at outposts. On the curb af- ter the regular close September rallied on covering orders to SSA. Total trans actions during the day were 7,S75,000 bushels.

uEYLER HAS RESIGNED.
This Report is Received By the New York Herald From Its Havana Correspondent.

This Report is Received By the New York
 Herald From Its Havana Correspondents.
 New York, Aug, 14-A dispatch to the New York Herald, via Key West, says:
 q have learned on what seems to be the best authority that Captain General Weyler has sent his resignation to Ma drid. This report is generally believed to be true. There is no doubt that it is due to the assassination of Senor Canovas del Castillo, through whose personal wishes Captain General Wey- Ter was retained in Cuba. The report is cause for satisfaction among the Cuban sympathizers, who, in the ad- vent of another captain general, see only relief for the inhumanities which have long been inflicted upon pacifics." !"

TO EXCLUDE SPANISH ANARCHISTS
Commissioner Powderly Takes Action to
 Prevent Their Landing on Our Shores.


 Washington, Aug. 13.-Commissioner Powderly of the Immigration bureau has sent the following letter of instruc- tions to immigration officials at New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Quebec, Canada, relative to the an- t3cipated arrival in this country Of Spanish anarchists:
 Information has reached this bu reau to the effect that one Planas, leader of the Spanish anarchists, has been expelled from France, being con ducted to Havre from which port it is expected he will sail to the United States. I am also advised that Tarrida Marmol, another Spanish anarchist, is believed to have gone to England and probably is en route to this country. A careful inspection should be made of arriving passengers in order that should any of this class be detected a careful examination can be had as to their right of admission into the United States under existing law"
 It is stated at the bureau of immigra- ton that there is no law under which persons can be excluded on the ground that hey are anarchists; not is anarchy anywhere declared to be a crime, so that if Planas or Marmol are refused admission to the country the refusal must be based solely upon the fact that they come within the general i'm migration law as to paupers, contract laborers. criminals, etc. This law ex- pressly provides, however, that moth ing in this act shall be construed to ap- ply to or exclude persons convicted of a political offence, notwithstanding said political offence It may be designated as a crime of misdemeanor involving moral turpitude by the laws of the land whence he came"

 Dear Friends-You are accusing me of deed I did not do, and rather than disgrace my people I will take my life. So goodbye to all dear friends forever. God forgive me for this. I would rath- CT die than be disgraeed. I have harm ed nobody. l have no one to live for. All that were dear to me are gone. Farewell to all. (Signed)
 LEWIS DEERWESTER"

 The second serious bathing accident within few weeks occurred yesterday noon at John Cox's pavilion opposite the Surf house at Savin Rock The unfortunate man was Frank $. Dibble, a timer and stove dealer of Northamp- ton, Mass. He went in bathing with a party of friends who had come down with him on the excursion of the day The tide was ebbing, and there was scarcely four feet of water at the end of the pavilion. Not content with div ing from the platform, Dibble mounted the rail fence and dove successfully three or four times, although MT. Cox warned him of the danger. The fifth dive was his last, for he struck on his head in the sand and could not move hands nor legs when he came to the surface.
 His friends became alarmed and car- ried him to the beach, where it was found that he was paralyzed from his armpits down. He was carried into the Surf house. where Dr. J. F. Barnett of West Haven made an examination and found that Dibble had suffered a con- cussion of the spine.
 The hospital ambulance was summon ed and the injured man removed to the city hospital. The attending physi- clans said last night that the chances of recovery were against Dibble, all though he may possibly recover some what. He is conscious and his mind is clear.
 The injured man, who is about thir- ty-fve years of age, is a nephew of Dr. F. L. Dibble of 257 Church street, this city. Dr. Dibble notified the injured mans wife and she was hourly expect ed at the hospital last night.

ONE REFORM At 4 TINE.
Importance Of Limiting the Scope Of q
Postal Bank Bill.

The sole object OF bill for the estab-
lishment OF postal savings bank system
should be to provide an absolutely safe
depository for the savings of persons OF
small means. There are many things
which the government ought to do. and
there are many wants OF the people
which ought to be supplied. But the
attemp; ought not to be made to supply
other wants in the measure creating q
postal savings bank system.
The people in many parts OF the coun-
try need better credit facilities. Any
thing which the government properly
can do to enable its citizens to secure
loans at lower rates it should do. But
when il comes TO determining what ia
proper in this line great difference Of
opinion is manifested. On the question
OF providing safe depositories for small
savings, however, opinion is very gen.
orally agreed. Congress in all probable
ity can be induced to pass al an earay'
date bill providing simply for safe de-
positories and making such an agree

sary to the accomplishment OF that pur-
pose. 1t is very doubtful. however. il
congress would pass postal savings
bank bill coupled with which was a
proposition for enabling citizens in need
OF money to secure loans from the gov
ernment.
All believers in poetal banks should
unite in favoring the only kind OF bill
that congress may be expected to pass
namely. one the sole object OF which is
to provide safe place OF deposit for
persons OF small means. The main pur-
pose OF the provision in relation TO in
vestments should be to safeguard the
funds and return to the postofiice depart
ment rate OF interest that will enable

ment might see tit to do. il anything. TO
