We hear some growing from Wash.

the volunteer army, and in order to rem.
der it more efficient it will be necessary
to bring to bearin its management some

The first thing to be done, we suppose.
will be to put a gag in the mouths of the
officers, for the priyates are very apt to
believe aud repeat what their officers
think and say. In the conduct Of the

the power to bring before a military tri

Sanger talked to secretary Alger at
Lexington, He referred to Ayers an

be converted into mere fighting
machines, mere automatons to be jerked
about like puppets. And really that
spirit will always make them reliable

officers. In South Carolina the grand
jury appoints a committee to examine
the books, but they do not report to the
grand jury that appoints them, but to
the next grand jury, so that the com
mittee have all the time between terms
Of the court to examine and make their
report, The grand jury of Monroe also
recommended the adjustment Of the
existing contract system and the estab-
lishment Of a county farms, to be owned

Bristol, R. L. Aug Io.--(Special.)-At the
works of the Herreshoff Company it was
stated officially that the new Americas
cup defender will be built there 1t was
also learned that the design will be one
upon which Captain Nat Herresboff
and Z. Oliver Iselin have already agreed
President John B. Herreshoff. the blind
roat builder, Will take an active interest
in the work of construction. and he sent
for today and conferred with some of the
most skilled metal workers in the employ
of the company.
1t is estimated that the cost of the new
defender, built of metal. will be in the
neighborhood of $4,000, and the contract
will provide that she shall be afloat in the
Herreshoff dock in sufficient time to race
in 1899
In due time the Defender is to be sailed
TO this harbor and put in trim for racing
IN, the trials of the new yacht Some of
her plates require replacing, and a GUAM
tity of the bolts are to be removed. This
is due to corrosion, the result of the De-
tenders long vacation at her anchorage
in the waters about New York
In an interview Capt. NAT Herreshofr
said:
The. chanengers have not yet defined
the character of their boat. We must
await that and the formal challenge, and
some other information. There is no fear
but we can buifd winner, still the
Americans this. time will have a remark

against. For months past Mr. Iselin and

SAVANNAH CUP RACE.
The Freak Canadian Yacht Again
Defeats the CHALLENGER

Montreal, Aug. 1e.-The third of the Sc
ries OF races for the Seawanhaka chal-
ienge cup which took place TODAY on
Lake ST. Louis. was virtual walkover
Tor the Canadian freak, which at the
finish had a lead of eight minutes and
sixteen seconds.
1he course was similar 10 SATURDAYS
two-mile beat to windward and return
sailed three times, making a course of
twelve miles. There was a good reefinp
breeze, with fairly heavy sea.
The weather again favored the Cana
dian boat as it enabled her TO do her e,-
traordinary windward work. and on one
very windward leg she made remarka be
gains.
Mr.. Crane admitted after today's race
that his boat had clearly no show against
the freak, but he said he would complete
the series.
Mr. Crane, in racing against the freak
Is doing so in opposition to the wishes Of
the Seawanhaka-C Corinthian Club. which
sent word TO its representative Mr. Glib
son, TO withdraw the boat from the races
ON account OF the decision of the ST. Law
renee Yacht Club to sail the Dominion al
the defender, the Seawanhaka Club con-
sidering the Canadians were taking un-
fair advantage of its representative by
sailing the freak.
Tomorrow's race, which will probably
be the final one, will be over triangular

HOLMES THE SCAPEGoAT.
WITHDRAWING of Freedman by the
League Board of Directors.

The League magnates at their meeting
at Philadelphia on Monday did just wha.
The Times intimated they would do. They
abrogated and annulled a plain provision
of their constitution, which is mandatory
they considered matters over which they
had no jurisdiction, for the reason that
another special tribunal has been estab-
lished for that purpose. The conviction
of Holmes for an alleged offense upon ex-
parte testimony, and without affording
him full and ample opportunity to be
heard, is Illegal and void and a trayesty
upon justice calculated to bring into
odium and disrepute one of the cardinal
principals of free government-the right
of trial by the jury.
In their zeal to placate Freedman they
went out of their way and handicapped
their own findings by providing a condi-
ton precedent to its enforcement, affect
ing the rights of others not parties to the
investigation, either personally or by at
torney, findings which would be re-
versed in any court of equity In the
country.
The enforcement of judgment depend
ing upon condition precedent is farcical
and absurd, and not complimentary to the
men who seek its PRONUNCIATION.
The board of directors have shown by
their action that they desire to shield
Freedman from the consequence of his
folly and to placate the public, whose
indignation has been so prominently
manifested. Therefore they visit their
wrath upon poor unfortunate HolraS
who was not even cited to appear before
the tribunal for answer, and whose Of
Tense, if an offense, has been establish
ed, should have been punished by the
umpire, who had exclusive jurisdiction.
These gentlemen have made sorry

country in an unenviable light. They
