AFTER FORTY-EIGHT HOURS OF
RIDING
The Six-Day Wheelmen at New York
Still Covering Miles With Dogged
Perseverance

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-The leaders in the
sx-day race at Madison Square garden stir
red the early evening crowds by frequent
brushes. At o'clock the score showed
Pierce within few laps OF % miles ahead
Of Miller, and the latter was five miles
ahead of Waller. The three leaders rode
without any symptoms OF fatigue. Be
tween and o'clock Pierce rested for for
ty-three minutes and at s olcock he was
only little over nine miles ahead. Miller
and Waller, second and third men, remained
on the track and materially lessened
Pierce's lead. Miller gained twelve and
Waller eleven miles on Pierce during the
hour. Pierce came back few minutes after
8 o'clock and resumed his usual speed. Mil
Ter went off for twenty-five minutes and
Waller crept up on him. When Miller re-
turned to the track he got down to fast
pace and there was a hot contest all along
the line between the leaders, and several
positions were changed.
The crowd tonight was the largest since
the beginning Of the race, and it did not
begin to thin out until after midnight.
Late tonight Waller changed his machine
and rode Il chainless wheel. Miller, when
asked how he felt, said he was as fresh as
when he started. He said he was going
to win, and felt sure he could held the pace
torty-eieht hours after the start Pierce
was less than two miles ahead of the rec
ord. At that hour he had been resting for
some time.

PLENTY OF MONEY
Leads the Savings Banks to Reduce
Interest

NEW YORK, Dec. Cat a meeting to be
held next Monday the trustees OF the Bow
cry Savings Bank will reduce the rate of in
terest paid on savings deposits from A to
3h per cent. The action is made necessary
by the plethora of money and the scarcity of
safe investments which yield sufficient re-
turn to enable the bank to pay per cent
to its depositors. 1t is probable that nearly
all the savings banks i'll the borough OF Man
haitian will have to lower their rate. Money
grows cheaper every year. The banks are
lending on call in Wall street at from | " to
21A per cent and the big insurance compan-
les with their vast SURPRISES are making loans
which formerly sought the savings banks as
low as 2 per cent.
The savings banks are limited by the
statutes to high class of securities, such as
United States bonds, New York State and
city bonds and high class real estate. It
is from the latter source only that they can
make their average earnings sufficient to pay
depositors 4 per cent.
Among the banks who are considering the
matter of a reduction of interest are said
to be the Germania Savings Bank, the Bank
Brooklyn Savings Bank.
1t is said that number of smaller banks
of Savings, the Irving Savings Bank, and the
in the boroughs of Manhattan and perhaps
Brooklyn may follow the lead of these con
Germs. The banks in the outlying boroughs,
particularly Staten Island and Queens, can
continue to pay per cent for the present
because of the fact that they can lend their
money at per cent to home builders.

COAST DEFENSES
Prove Fatal to the Men Removing
Mine

BOSTON, Dec. 6.-Four men were killed
and several severely injured at Fort indie
pendence, on Castle Island, in Boston har-
mine which had been removed from the
channel by diver. The dead:
SERGT. MORRIS MGRATH.
HIRAM VAUGHN.
PRIVATE BRENNAN, a diver.
=. RYAN, citizen.
The men were engaged in carting the mine
from the shore to the interior of the island
to place with other implements of the same
nature which had been taken there since the
war ended.
The three men, Vaughn, Brennan and
Ryan, had placed the mine on the cart and
started to take it to the place where the
other ammunition was stored. The road
along which they passed was unusually
smooth, having been constructed with a
view to the necessity of care in transport
ing explosive material Suddenly, and with
out warning, the mine burst. The horse
and cart and the three men were blown
to fragments. Sergeant McGrath was
standing fully twenty feet away He was
instantly killed by the conclusion. His
body does not bear a mark of aay sort.
As soon as possible after the explosion
a careful search was begun by Lieutenant
Raymond, who had charge Of removing the
mines, but not a fragment of men or
clothing could be found Lieutenant Ray
mond stated that he could not explain how
the explosion occurred He SAYS that since
the order was issued from Washington hun
dreds OF mines have been handled in Pre-
clsely the same way as was this one, and
transported over the same road.

an ample force at his disposition.
This order is significant as indicating the
belief of the authorities that there is now
no danger of trouble with Germany over
the Philippines.
On account of the Raleigh's small steam
ing radius it will be impossible for her to
cross the Pacific and she will return to the
United States via the Mediterranean,
probably arriving at New York some time
during February. She will pass the gunboat
Helena, which is now at Gibraltar, on her
way to the Philippines.
Secretary Long, at the suggestion of Sen
ator Hale, has submitted bill appropri-
ating $4,000 for the erection of IA monument
and fence at Colon cemetery, Havana,
where the dead OF the Maine are buried.
Congress authorized last March, the trans
fer of the bodies to the Arlington cemetery.
but the outbreak of the war prevented ac.
ton and as Cuba will be free and may be-
come a part of the United States, the
authorities do not see that there is any
necessity for a transfer.
