handsome silk banner to 60 to the athletic club
scoring the greatest number OF points on the
regular basis. The Pastime. New West Side

MONTREAL. July 30.-The second series Of
trial races to decide upon the Canadian defen-
der In the international race for the Seawan-
hakA Cur, which will be sailed for on Aug. 13,
took place this afternoon on Lake st. Louis.
Duggan's white Freak" as his boat has been
aptly nicknamed, again carried OF the honors
by winning two out Of the three races. The
course was similar TO that OF last Saturday, q
short course Of two miles and q hall. The first
leg was three-quarters OF o mile to windward.
the second three-quartera OF n mile reach, and
the last one a mile run. II was hoped that the
weather would be heavy. so that the boats
might show their sailing qualities, and the In
dications early In the day pointed that way.
But early in the afternoon the weather cleared
and whom tho races started there was only .
fair west breeze with o light sea. Only three
yachts took part In the races. DugRan's un-
named. the brokers Spectator. and Drum
mond's Manitou. The strathconA was to have
started but could not get q Grew.
In the FIRST race tho Manitou crossed the line
first, Duggan's boat following thirty seconds
later. and the Spectator ten seconds after the
unnamed. At the time there was a pretty
fair breeze blowing. and the Manitou
held up we'll to 1t, gaining considerable
Roadway. Duggan seemed to be expert

neys of this city. without the knowl-
edge of Andersen, on Thursday ap-
piled for a writ of habeas corpus with
the object of staying the execution.
Morris was originally Andersen's at
torney, but District Judge Hughes re-
fused to appoint him because he repre-
sented some of the men accused with
Andersen. The contention was that
Judge Hughes erred in not allowing
Andersen TO select his own counsel.
Judge Waddlll denied the application,
but granted an appeal to the supreme
court, to be heard Oct. 10. Andersen
was in his cell with his spiritual ad-
vlsors, ready to march to the galows,
when some one shouted from the win
dow that the judge had granted a stay,
Andersen broke down, and expressed
regrets that the end would be DELAYED.
He was taken to court in a carriage
