! GOOD STRONG BREEZE
Promised for the Big Yacht Race
To-Day.
WILL BE THE FIRST TEST
Upton Is Confident of Winning and
Shamrock Stock Has Taken a Rise.
Greatest Struggle in Inter-
national Racing.

New York, Oct. 6.-This has been a
day of rest on board the international
racers. The Columbia was towed from
Sandy Hook to Bay Ridge to get her
out of any danger from the northeast
er. The Shamrock remained at her
anchorage at the Hook, her people
seeming willing to take the chances.
The feeling on both sides is one Of
confidence. Mr.. Iselin thinks he will
| win. Sir Thomas Upton has a nice
little corner in the Erin all ready for
it must be said that there is feeling
of indecision among the expert yachts
men. The two drifting matches have
furnished almost nothing on which to
base an opinion. They have. however.
seemed to strengthen the belief that
the Shamrock is thoroughly danger
Gus proposition. This is now well
grounded opinion. and if the two days
of light airs have done anything they
have shaken that confident feeling that
has prevailed among the hackers of
the Columbia. Those who have watch
ed most closely the every movement OF
the two yachts are firm in the belief
that there is little to choose between
them in a drift, and as it is remen-
bered that the Shamrock people have
never asserted that she was a drifter.
it can be understood that there is rea-
| son for rise in the Shamrock stock.
1t now looks as though the first race
to a finish will come in a good strong
breeze. At sundown the wind was
| blowing hard from the north. The
weather was clearing and there were
good signs of a pretty hard northwest
er in the morning. If it comes the
will tha act CT II
the history of International racing.
When seen by an associated press
reporter on board the tender st. Mi
chaels to-day G.. Oliver Iselin, the Co
lumbias managing owner, said:
I'VE know practically nothing more
of the merits of the boats than we did
on Tuesday. If anything, we know
less. for we did not turn the outer
mark this time, but have every con-
tidence in the Columbia's ability to out
sail the Shamrock in all breezes when
we get steady breeze. That's what
we want-some wind"
OF yesterdays race Mr.. Iselin said:
when we made that last, turn we.
We're not able to cross the Shamrock's
bows, but in all wind work yesterday
there was not much difference in the
work of the yachts. We were in She
best positions most OF the time
Sir Thomas Upton stated that the
Shamrock had proved herself to be an
excellent drifter and that he was very
much pleased with her performances in
light air. 1t is evident that Sir Thomas
and his friends are modestly confident
that the Shamrock will make an ex-
ceedingly good showing against the, CO.
lumbia in breeze and are greatly
pleased at her good performances in
the light weather hitherto prevailing.
Among the most prominent guests
among the Erin's throng will be Rear
Admiral Schley and Lord Mimic of
| Canada.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
San FRANCISCO, Oct. 6.-Throush the
Standard the men of Company NJ wish
to return thanks to the women of An
aconda who so thoughtfully provided
fund for their use, the unexpended
portion OF which was turned over to
them to-day. OF $3.50 sent for Com
pany Ms use $97 was expended in
fruit, butter, crackers and other extras
on the voyage over from Manila. On
Wednesday Colonel kessler. who has
had charge of the fund, learned for the
first time that the women of Anaconda
had appointed a committee to direct
the use of the money, and to-day he
turned it over to one Of its members.
After consultation with all the men of
the company, it was decided, as the
women who sent the money would
want to have the boys receive the ben
eft of it. even If they were now past
any actual want, that it would be best
to distribute the remaining $3.50 share
and share alike There are always
things the men need or little luxuries
to be had for small expense, and the
$500 each OF the AZ men received
as one of them remarked, 1T came in
mighty handy
The regiment is to entertain both the
Washington and Kansas regiments,
and as each man. is supposed to con-
tribute his sharesRto the general fund
for that purpose, 1t makes quite little
hole in his pay roll, which the Ana
conda ladies' money comes in nicely
to fill up.
The Montana boys set an example
yesterday which the other volunteer
regiments might follow with much
credit. Although the boys We're in
funds, it being pay day, not single
man was disorderly, and from the ap
pearance Of the camp he visitor would
not know anything out Of the ordinary
had occurred.
1t was supposed yesterday when the
appointment of Colonel kessler to be
brigadier general became known that
vacancies would be created in the reg
iment in the straight line from colonel
Down and there was considerable dis
appointment when the dispatches from
Washington thie morning announced
thar the rank was but brevet. This,
of course. makes no change in the regi-
mental staff.
Montana is at present the only regi
ment Of those returning from Manila
which now remains at the Presid&,.
They will have the Washingtons as
neishboN now almost any day.

Duke d'Arcos, who has Just left his house
at Manchester. said with regard to the
receptions being given Admiral Dewey:
''It does not surprise me in the least.
Admiral Dewey is a brave and noble Inan
and for the extraordinary service he has
rendered his country no honor that can
be shown him in return is too great He
has aroused the admiration Of the whole
world by the gallantry of his conduct and
he would be a small man, indeed, who
could not recognize his merit and give
free expression to his admiration for
Dewey's Valor"

New York. Oct. George McFadden
of this city knocked out George (Kil)
LaNigne, eX-lishtWeight champion of
the world, in the 10th round before the
Broadway Athletic club tonight They
met at 1873 pounds and put up a fight
which was as sensational as it was pro-
life of hard hitting and clever ring
work. McFadden's blocking of the Kid S
rushes and leads was phenomenal. and
toward the end Of the bout he had the
Saginaw boxer very raw and sore. In
the final round McFadden went right to
his man and had him reeling with right
and left swings on the head. A right
swing on the jaw put LaVigne to the
floor, where he lay for six seconds. He
got up. reeling, and tried to clinch, but
was sent down twice more with similar
blows. Each time he took almost the
limit to get up. but it was beyond doubt
that he was unable TO cope with Nc
Fadden. who stood waiting to give him
a final blow.
The Kid clinched as he got up and
the referee separated them. Then Mac
nailed Lavinge with a left back OF the
ear and the Kid then went down for
nearly nine seconds A left to the body
tloored Lavinge for the fifth time. He
got up only to go down again, this time
from clinch with McFadden on top.
McFadden jumped up at once, but La
vinge rose slowly. He staggered across
the ring with McFadden hot after him.
McFadden rushed his right to the head
and uppercut his left to the chin. La
vinge went down again, but got up
within the limit. He stood in a dazed
condition. McFadden measured him
carefully and with left swing this
time sent him down and out.
1t Was n Draw.
Chicago, Oct G.--Kid Mccoy and Joe
Choynski fought six rounds before the
Fort Dearborn Athletic club tonight.
Both men had agreed to a draw in case
they were on their feet a the end of the
sixth round. and that was the decision, as
both were not only on their feet but com
paratively fresh. Mccoy, however, clear
ly outpointed the California and scored
the only knockdown of the fight, putting
Joe to the boards with left hook in the
mouth in the third round.
