ANOTHER CUP-DEFENDER RACE.
The Columbia Makes Magnificent
Shoyyinp-Grent lncht Run.

GREENPORT, L. l., August S.-The
day from Newton out into the sound as
far as Watch Hill and back 10 Gardiner $
Bay was one OF the most successful in
tho clubs history Not only was the day
an ideal one, with a great whOle-sail
breeze from the west, which held through
from start 10 finish, but the club watched
with pride a magnificent run made ~
the queenly Columbia, which Outdis-
tanced every other yacht, with the ex-
ception OF the Defender, and she, too,
was defeated by four minutes and nine
teen seconds in a thirty-mile race.
The old cup-defender. Vigilant, was
beaten by the two flyers nearly an hour,
but much of this was no doubt due TO the
fortunate run Of the Columbia and the
Defender along the Fishers Island shore,
while tho rest Of the fleet kept over on
the other side Of the sound.
over fifty yachts crossed the line at
New London, and nearly all finished In
Gardeners Bay, although some Of them
did not get in until toward night.

the betrayal and attempted murder Of
Miss Massia Watson. lie He'd 10 Canada

surrendered 10 the Sheriff of the county.
Three or four hundred people were In
Chatham to-day 10 witness the proceed
ings, and when Anderson was brought
into the courthouse IL was about as full
of people as it usually is on County Court
days-that Is to say, it was crowded.
The opening proceedings indicated that

About forty witnesses had been sum-
mOned, not half Of whom were exam

ing will be completed tomorrow.
DR. Anderson appeared pale and rather
detected and showed signs OF his
recent illness. The first witness put

concerning Dr. AndersOn's surrender.
James Anderson, brother Of the prison.
or. swore 10 HIS having heard rumors
that Anderson was IN danger, and he
advised him to sell out and leave the
country.
Drs. j. $. Halle and w. T.. Parrish tes-
tilted that confinement In jail would be
detrimental 10 the health OF the prisoner
Several witnesses were then introduced
in an effort TO, show that Miss Watson
was not OF good character. They were
young men from the neighborhood. and
az the conclusion OF their testimony the
defence rested.
The first witness introduced by the
defence was DR.. Ramsey, the physician
who was called IN TO see Miss Watson
after Or. Anderson was taken sick. He
was on the stand over two hours, and
his examination was not concluded when,
al 7:30 O'Clock. the court took a recess
until tomorrow morning DIR. Ramsey
testified as TO the condition OF Miss Wat

have promised him the hearty and unan-
imous support Of the officers and faculty,

GERS of the college have not. 50 far as
