CITIZENS MAY ASK QUESTIONS
(Continued from First Page.)

Aftermath Staub said the committee has decided to hear one side of the case and then let the public state their side.
 Alderman Hogan-"I ask the gentle man to qualify that What does he mean by One side of the case?''' ''
 Councilman Chase of the committee said that there were not two sides of the case, that the members of the board of education had been invited to appear and that citizens could express their opinions when the time came and that the committee would weigh those opin- ions for what they were worth and question the citizens who so appeared in the same way that members of the board of education were questioned.
 Alderman Cbillingworth of the com mittee took occasion to say that he had formed no opinion, that his mind was a blank so far as the matter in hand was concerned.
 Alderman Brennan of the committee thought that there were two sides of the case, but not as far as the commit tee was concerned. The creation of the committee came about because of the running censure of the public on spend ing so much money for supervisors, and if a citizen wanted to ask questions of the school officers and members of the board of education concerning the mat ter he thought that such questions should be allowed
 Alderman Hogan said that it was apparent from the remarks of the members of the committee that no ac- ton against allowing citizens to ask questions had been taken; also it had been stated by a member of the com nlittee that no questions would be al- lowed from citizens to the superinten- dent of schools or members of the board of education until later date He said: If the committee has arriv- ed at such a decision, we, as citizens, do most certainly object to it. The pub lie is imbued with impressions concern ing this system of supervisors, impress eions that may be false. Now why not give the public an opportunity to clear away this mist and the public will then feel satisfied when this investigation is concluded that there is nothing wrong in the board of education"
 Alderman Dewel remarked-"I want | no one to think that I think that any | member of the committee has already | decided the question before it as might | be inferred from the remarks of some | members of the committee" { Councilan Conlin of the committee | then moved that taxpayers be allowed 1 to ask any questions of the superinten- dent of schools and members of the | board of education relevant to what is covered by the resolutions before the committee. This motion was carried
 MT. Moran then proposed that the committee allow Mir Kendall to finish | his statement at the next meeting and then allow MT. Moran and MT Asher to be asked questions No &C., tion was taken on this suggestion.

 BACK FROM EUROPE.

W. l.. Reeves Rendered a Reception By
 w. E. Gladstone Lodge Last Night
 w. l.. Reeves, president of the Stereo- Cosmorame company of this city, re- turned from a European trip on Mon- day. MT. Reeves left New Haven fully three months ago, going to London principally on a business trip in con nection with the company He reports having had very pleasant trip. The weather in the old country during his stay was unusually fine, hardly any rain falling the time he was there. In conversation with Courier representa- tive, he said that business was very brisk in England Much excitement prevails, he said, over the Transvaal question. and the general opinion is that war can hardly be averted In consequence the money market is very stiff few people being willing to do anything in the way of speculation ow- ing to the strained relations with the Boers. Much interest is also being taken in the interna tional yacht races which began yesterday and the British enthusiasts are in high hopes of the Shamrock being able to capture the Americas cup. The members of w. E. Gladstone lodge, Order Sons of St George, of which MT Reeves is a popu- lar and active member, rendered him a reception and welcome home at their hall on Chapel street last night. Speeches of welcome were made, songs were rendered and that along with a bountiful supply of refreshments went to make up happy evening.

At 1:23 in came the spin maker again on the Columbia, the wind having hauled back to the northwar6, her boom was flung to starboard and balloon jibtopsail trimmed The sham rock had gybed five minutes before, but she was not gaining any up to this time. Approaching the outer mark the Columbia's crew housed the balloon jibtopsail smartly, and as they round ed the mark a float bearing red ball left on the starboard hand the big main boom swung over to port, ali sheets were trimmed fiat on the star board tack and the Columbia thus be- gan her fifteen miles of windward work

= Time at OutDr Mark,

The time taken at the outer mark as each yacht luffed around it was: Columbia, 1:17:52; Shamrock, 1:19:5S. So it will be seen by the official figures that in the run of fifteen miles from the start 10 the outer mark the Co., lumbia outsailed the Shamrock two minutes, fortyfour seconds. Her elapsed time to this point was hours 2l minutes. 37 seconds; the Shamrock S 2 hours, "A minutes, 21 seconds. Cap tain Barr kept the Columbia on the in shore tack for two minutes forty-five seconds, after rounding the mark when he let her come about to the port tack setting the baby jibtopeail as she filled away. In twenty seconds he swung her about again. The Shamrock mean while stood off on the starboard tack two minutes twenty-one seconds, when Skipper Hogarth put her about and be- gan his Windward work in earnest with the Bristol boat. The wind was now northeast by north, and on the port tack both yachts were heading with sheets trimmed down flat within four points of the wind, which had now in creased to about ten miles. It was not steady, however, and its dukiness be- came apparent at 1:55 when it began heading off the Columbia.

Yach ts Quick on Their Heels.

The Shamrock tackled to starboard at 1:56, spinning around on her keel in fifteen seconds from full to full, but to the astonishment of thousands who witnessed the Columbias next tack fifteen seconds later, she swung around in the almost incredibly short space of ten seconds, timed by a stop watch Captain Hogarth apparently feeling confident that by series of short tacks he could get the windward of the Columbia put the Shamrock about four times in three minutes and forty seconds. Captain Barr followed suit and his nimble crew trimmed sheets just as fast as those on the Shamrock and when they both settled down to steady work again at 2:14:50 the Co., lumba was still well in the lead and gaining.

A Ba tile of Tncks.


 Captain Hogarth thought it best at 2;20 to split tacks with his antagonist, so he put the Shamrock on the port tack, thinking the Columbia would not follow but she did and when the latter yacht tackled at 2:21:35 she was nearly mile dead to windward of the green boat. During the next thirty minutes a dozen short tacks were made. the wind continuing fluky all the time un- til few minutes before 3 o'clock when the wind left the Columbia for fully five minutes. She had the inshore berth, the Shamrock offshore held a breeze from the northeast.
 Shamrock Takes the Lead
 When the Shamrock at 3:11 went about on the Columba's lee bow she was we'll ahead, that is to say, if she had gone about she could have crossed the Columbias bow. Between 3:15 and 3;20 the Columbia, with a few fresh puffs from the northeast, began walk ing up on the Shamrock, which was then nearly quarter of mile to wind ward of her. but before she could over haul the Shamrock the wind died out again. The Shamrock continued to hold a breeze and by 3:35 she was nearly half mile to wndward of the Bristol boat. There was a strong tide setting to the southwest which seemed to af- feet the Columbia more than it did the cording to the rules to finish the race before 4:45 o'clock, it soon became evil dent that the boats at I o'clock were some five miles to leeward of the fin- ish, that the race would have to be de- clared off, This was done at the time named, while the boats were still four miles away from the finish.
