Thousands of DELEGATES.

Detroit, Mich, July ct was estimat-
ed this morning that upward of 10000
accredited delegates to the international
Christian Endeavor convention had ar
rived, aside from visitors who are not
Endeavorers. Several hundred volunteers
for service in the monday evangelistic
meetings received assignments to various
parts of the city from Leader Bibbud of
Springfield. BY noon many factories and

labors. The day was clear cool and alto
gether ideal.
When the first real business of the con-
vention opened today in the tent EN-
deavor," a sea of 10000 earnest counte-
nances were upturned toward the plat

ShamrOCk'S Trial Race.

New York, July GA dispatch to the
Herald from London says: There is to
be a trial of speed between the Shamrock
and the Brittania. Wednesday morning
Sir Thomas Upton and Mr.. Fife landed
at Southampton from a short cruise on
Sir Thomas steam yacht Erin and it was
decided that the Shamrock is not to sail
for America without some trial with an
other yacht. The Daily Mail is authori-
tatively Informed that the spin will take
place between the Shamrock and the
Brittania at the end of this week or at
the beginning of the next. The contest
will take place off the Needles. TO give
an idea of the new boats spars it must
be stated that the grth of the mamma st
at the crosstrees is upward of 60 inches,
while the spinnaker boom from the deck
reaches above that point. A steel boom
and steel gaff have been shipped. The
immense area of the mainsail may be
gathered from the fact that the canvas
from which it is made weighs nearly 2,1O0
pounds.

Home Rule Promised.

! New York, July GA special to the
, Herald from Washington says: The de-
| parture of President Schurmann of the
| Philippine commission will leave at Ma
nila three members of the commission:
Major General Otis, Professor Worces-
ter and Colonel DENLY. 1t will be the
duty of the last two named to continue
the work of establishing home rule within
the lines held by the American troops,
in the hope that the example will be fol-
lowed by Filipinos outside of the lines
and show them the benefcent purposes of
this government. Professor Worcester
and Colonel DENLY viii also aid General
Otis in the conduct of any peace negotia-
tions which may follow future operations
Of the American troops.
Mr.. Schurmann's dispatch is on the
whole very encouraging, and the authori-
ties are very much gratified at the condi-
tions he reports having found at the
points visited. 1t is evident from what
the officials say that Mr.. Schurmann be-
lieves the suppression of AguinaldOs in
surrection means the establishment of
peace throughout the archipelago. He is
confident that many of the people
throughout the southern islands do not
openly express themselves in favor of an
American protectorate solely because of
their fear of Aguinaldo and his Tagal
army. Mr.. Schurmann speaks well of
the sultan of Sulu, and it is evident that
he feels that there is no danger of trou-
BILE from him in case the United States
observes the treaties which exist between
him and the Spanish government.
Mr.. Schurmann makes a number OF
recommendations regarding home rule
for some Of the southern islands, and
they will probably be adopted by the
president. The condition in Negros was
found to be of a highly satisfactory char
acter by Mr.. Schurmann, and home rule
will undoubtedly be given Immediately
to the people Of that island, although
some alterations We're necessary before
it received the presidents approval.
