VANDERBILT WAS BEATEN.
Has a Race With the Wa1dorf-Astoria
Coach to His Discontinue.

:. New York, May 1.-THE blood of vii vii
liam H. Vanderbilt beat high in the veins
of Willie K. yesterday afternoon on the
road from Morris park, but John p K.
Townsend passed him with the Waldorf
Astoria coach-and-four Good Times "
after a hot race. The Good Times had
made, its usual trip from the big hotel to
Woodmansteu Inn, Westchester, and a
jolly party, with Mr.. Townsend as whip,
went thence to the races. Just outside
the race track gate Willie K. looked up
at the beaming countenance of Mr.. Town
send, smiled, and tapped his horses
lightly.
Head and head the horses kept for half
a mile when Mr.. Townsend, urged by a
feminine voice behind him, waved the rat
tan again and the four stout horses got
down, to a lively gait. Faster and faster
there was no doubt about it's being a race.
Suddenly the coach horses left their gait
and galloped. Mr.. Vanderbilt followed
suit.
The road fairly Numbered now with the
contest. But, alas! the Vanderbilt entry
was outclassed at this sort of work and
gave up the contest at the end of another
mile. But Good Times established a
new record. The sweating horses stood at
the main entrance of the Waldorf-Astoria
an hour and eight minutes ahead of sched-
ule time.

New York, May 14.-Miss SaIlie Tuck
er, sister of Mr.. Preble Tucker, opened
a tearoom today in the Fernery, her
store at 240 Lexington avenue. She is
now prepared to furnish her friends
among the "4OO'' with light breakfasts,
dainty luncheons, and afternoon tea.
She offers them in her little flower gar
den restaurant fresh eggs from Peace
dale Farm and homemade cake-her
own sponge cake, the kind they have
enjoyed at her house.
THE tearoom is simply an expert
ment," Miss Tucker said. MY sign
reads: Summer Tearoom,' and in my
announcement on the menu cards I
state that it will be open during the
summer months only. If it is a success
may decide to continue it. I cannot
really say at present what I shall do
If it proves success, I may enlarge it
in the fall.
my place is the only one I know of
in New York where tea can be made on
the table, said Miss Tucker, pointing
with pride to the little brass kettles
which adorn her tables. 81 intend serv-
ing things after the manner of a pri-

TO GIVE CASH PREMIUMS.
Omaha Exposition Directors Heed
| Cattlemeu'S Protests.

Omaha, May 14.-The protest of the
live stock interests of the west against
the decision of the Transmississippi ex-
position officials not to offer cash pre-
miums for live stock exhibits has been
effective.
At a special meeting of the exposition
directors yesterday, it was unanimously
decided to offer cash prizes amounting
to $35, 900, in place of medals, in the live
stock department. A number of live
stock men who were present at the
meeting prophesied the live stock ex
hibit would be the best ever brought
together in the United States. The
statement that Kansas City was pre-
pairing for a live stock show, of which
fered, was one of the arguments pre-
scented. The Union Stock Yards COM
pany of South Omaha, announced to the
directors that it would contribute $1,000
in cash to be awarded in prizes by the
executive committee for cattle, hogs
and sheep.

AMERICANS REFUSED.
The Gussie Fails to Land Her Second
Cargo at Cabanas.

Key West, Fla, May 14.-Information
has reached here of the attempt to land
on Cuban soil of a cargo of arms and
ammunition taken over by the steamer
Gussie The GuSsie came from Tampa
with 1000 rifles and a large quantity
of ammunition, clothing and provisions
for the Cuban insurgents. The eXpedi-
ton was in charge of Capt. J. H. Dorst
of the United States cavalry who re-
Gently landed a similar one from the
Leyder, after an engagement with the
Spanish troops on shore. With him in
this latest enterprise were about 100
members of the First artillery of the
regular army and ten Cuban scouts.
Arrangements had been made to have
a body of insurgents meet the Gussie
at Cabanas to receive the expedition
and carry it to the insurgent troops.
When the Gussie reached Cabanas,
however, there was no one there to meet
her but body of Spanish soldiers, who
opened fire from the shore. The auxi1-
larry gunboats Wasp and Manning had
met the Gussie on the way over and
acted as escort. They returned the fire
of the Spanish troops and are said to
have killed many.
Under the protection of the gunboatS
the scouts and a detail of soldiers made
a landing but they were driven back
by the Spanish troops, who maintained
a vigorous attack. One of the Ameri-
can party was shot in the arm, but none
of the others injured. The Gussie
eventually abandoned the attempt to
land her cargo and at last accounts
was still cruising along the coast
awaiting a favorable chance to do so.

STREWN WITH DEAD.
Frightful Effect of Firing Into
an Italian Mob.

Vienna, May 14.-News has been re-
ceived of fresh conflicts between the
peasants and the military outside Mi
Ian. The reports from Iuino show that
the rioting there was more serious
than at first reported. The Duke and
Duchess of Sake Meiningen had very
narrow escape from violence at the
hands of the mob and the pavement
was covered with dead and dying after
the customs officials fired at Pisa.
Three thousand frenzied petroleuses
took part in the riots at Leghorn. The
rioters soaked the doors of the churches
with petroleum, intending to fire them,
but the troops frustrated the plot. 1t
is reported that the government intends
to call out 100000 men in the Milanese
district. Milan is already held by a
large force but the court martials there
have given fresh proof of the organized
nature of the rioters.

TO CHANGE "THE BOWERY.' IS
Historic Old Name of $50 Years to be
Extinguished.

New York, May 14.-The historic name
of 1.-The Bowery,'' now nearly $50 years
old, on Manhattan Island, is threatened
with extinction. There is a formida-
BILE movement on foot among the mer-
chants doing business on that thor
oughfare to change it's name. Similar
movements have been instituted before,
but they have always failed.
A petition for the change, signed by
over 300 merchants doing business there
has been presented to the local boards
of the Tenth and Eleventh districts, and
a hearing on the matter was held be-
fore President A. w. Peters of the
Borough of Manhattan in the City hall
on Monday. The petition recites that
owing to the Odium attached to the
ious dives and low concert saloons
heretofore maintained there, as well as
the many robberies committed on that
street, the thoroughfare had come into
general diSrepute, and the values OF
real estate thereon had Shrunk at least
40 per cent.
Rents have deprecated one-half, and
reputable business men have removed
their stores from the street because
their patrons have refused to visit and
deal with merchants on the Bowery.
Moreover the petitioners continue,
the street has been advertised from one
end of the country to the other by the
song, "On the BOwery," which has led
all persons who have ever heard it to
believe that they say such things and
they do such things" on the bowery
that no reputable person who has had
any experience of the street will ever
go there any more.
Blank ballots will be handed around
among merchants, shopkeepers, hotel
proprietOrS, and manufacturers from
and each will be asked to vote yes or
no on the change.

TO BACHELOR FRIENDS.
Clarence Gives a Famous Feast Before
His Marriage.

New York, May 14.-C1arence H. Mac
kay gave his farewell bachelor dinner in
the east room of the Waldorf-Astoria last
evening, and since the famous dinner
given by Count Castellane a few days
before his marriage to Miss Anna Gould
nothing in the way of a feast has APP
preached it. Mr.. Mackay'S dinner in every
way surpassed the Castellane affair. The
menu was printed on neat white card.
at the top of which were two hands
clasped in manly fashion. Underneath
were these words, printed in golden let
tiers: THE bachelors farewell
The decorations were beautiful. The
walls were covered with great punches of
apple blossoms. through which glittered
thousands of tiny electric lights covered
with colored glass. They looked like rare
jewels. Palm trees were placed at inter-
walls between the bloSsOming apple
punches. All the rooms leading to the
banquet hall were decorated in like fash
ion. The table was set in a circle around
a center garden of white spirea and masses
of American beauty roses. In the center
of this floral display was electric foun-
tain with ever changing hueS.
Covers were laid for twenty. At each
plate was boutonniere of forget-me-
notS, with a turQuoiSe-headed pin to fasten
them to the lapel of the coat.

during the action were injured by
splinters thrown by an eight inch shell
which came through a boat into the
superstructure and scattered frag-
ments in all directions The shots
course was finally ended on an iron
plate an inch thick. Merkle was struck
in the arm and may lose it. All were
hurt by splinters and a fire was start
ed in the boat, but was quickly extin-
guiShed.
MORO battery, on the eastward arm
of the harbor, was the principal point
of attack Rear Admiral Sampson and
captain Evans were on the lower
bridge of the Iowa and had a narrow
escape from flying splinters, which in
jured three men. The Iowa was hit
eight times, but the shells made no
impression on her armor. The weather
was fine, but the heavy SwellS made
accurate aim difficult.
The broadsides from the Iowa and
Indiana rumbled in the hills ashore for
five minutes after they were delivered.
Clouds of dust showed where the shells
struck; but the smoke hung over
everything. The shells screeching
overhead and dropping around showed

that the spaniards still stuck to their

that the Spaniards still stuck to their
guns.
At o'clock in the morning all hands
We're called on the Iowa, a few final
touches in clearing ship were made, and
at general quarters sounded. The
men were eager for the fight. The tug
Waumpatuck went ahead and anchor
ed, her small boat to the westward
showing ten fathOms, but there was not
a sign of life from the fort, which stood
boldly against the sky on the eastern
hills hiding the town. The Detroit
steamed far to the eastward, opposite
Valtern. The Iowa headed straight for
the shore. Suddenly her helm flew over
bringingthe starboard battery to bear
on the Notifications. At SIG a. M, the
Iowa's forward guns Numbered out at
the sloping hills and for IA minutes she
poured starboard, broadsides on the
coast. Meanwhile the Indiana the New
York and other ships repeated the dose
from the rear The Iowa turned and
came back to the Waumpatuck's boat
and again led the column, the forts re-
plying fercely, concentrating on the
Detroit, which was about 700 yards
away, all the batteries on the eastward
arm of the harbOr. Thrice the column
passed from the entrance of the harbor
to the extreme eastward battery.
Utter indifference was shown for the
quickly attended, the blood was wash
ed and everything proceeded like tar
get practice.
At 7:45 a; M, Admiral Sampson sig
sounded on the Iowa, and she headed
from the shore. The Terror was the
last ship in the line and, failing to see
the signal banged away alone for about
half an hour, the concert of shore guns
roaring at her and the water flying
high around her from the exploded
shells. But she possessed a charmed
life and reluctantly retired at SIS.
AS at Matanzas, the unsatisfactory
condition, the smoke and the distance
prevented any important conclusions
being drawn. The town of San Juan
must have suffered, although protected
by the hills, as the high shots must
have reached it. No traces of the
bombardment were discernable on the
forts except small fires, which were ap-
parently extinguished before the fleet
left.

the bursting of a shell on the New
York. This is a complete list of the
killed and wounded.
The American ships were uninjured.
The engagement began at Sis a. m.
and ended at 8:15 a. m. The enemy'S
batteries were not silenced. The town
in the rear of the Notifications proba-
bly, suffered.
The ships taking part in the action
were the Iowa, Indiana, New York,
Terror, Amphitrite, Detroit, Montgom-
cry, Waumpatuck and Porter. The
enemy's firing was heavy, but wild and
the Iowa and New York were probably
the only ships hit. They went right up
brOadsides, and then returned. The
line passed thrice in front of the ports,
pouring tons of steel on shore.
1t is impossible to judge. the amount
of the damage done to the buildings
and forts. They appeared to be riddled
with shot; but the Spaniards were
plucky. The after turret of the Am
phitrite got out of order temporarily
during the engagement, but she bang
ed away with her forward guns. Aft
er the first passage before the forts,
the Detroit and the Montgomery re-
tired, their guns being too small to do
much damage. The Porter and Waum-
patuck also stayed out of range. The
smoke hung over everything, spelling
the aim of the gunnerS and making it
impossible to tell where our ships
struck. The officers and men of all
the ships behaved with GOODNESS and
bravery. The shots flew thick and fast
over all our ships.
