SHAMROCK LAUNCHED.
Meets With Accident and
Receives a
Dent.

London, June 26.-sir Thomas Lip
toms cup challenger Shamrock was
launched this morning Lady Russell
christened the yacht with the Gus
tomary bottle of champagne, saying:
Il christen you Shamrock. God bless
you, good luck to you; may you bring
back the cup" Three cheers were
then given, and on a signal from Lady
Russell, the boat and the cradle glided
safely into the water
AS the Shamrock reached mid-stream
from the slips, a barge collided with
her, striking the yachts bow above
the water line and making a big dent.
The damage was said to be slight.
Previous to the launch, Sir Thomas
Upton gave a lunch at the Savoy
Hotel to the guests invited to the cere-
mony. They included Admiral Lord
Charles Beresford, the Marquis of
Dufferin, the Earl and Countess of
Clanwilliam, Lady Russell, Hon. Lillian
Russell, Schomberg Kerr Mcdonnell,
principal private secretary to the
Marquis of Salisbury; Sir George
Faudel-P Phillips, former lord mayor of
London, and Lady Phillips; Herbert
Gladstone, Maj. SharmanC Crawford, w.
Walsh and H. NJ McGilldowny, the last
three representing the Royal Ulster
Yacht Club
After the usual loyal toasts, Admiral
Beresford proposed the success of the
Shamrock and briefly sketched the
struggles of times gone by and Sir
Thomas Lipton's gallant entry into
the breach" and challenge for the cup
Then the admiral in breezy style
raised his glass and said: Now we
come to the last scene but one. May
the Shamrock win a fair, square race
and may she have the additional ballast
of the Americas cup when she re-
turns"
w. Fyfe, designer, remarked thai
brains and all that had been thought
out in annals of naval architecture
were put into the yacht. mot a mar
of US" he said, "but is satisfied thai
with a fair field, we shall give a tight
race to any opponent"
Shamrock goes round to Southamp,
ton tomorrow or Wednesday for JUS
those little arrangements that racing
| experience gives, and then for the
journey which we hope will herald the
CUP"

CORNELL | YELL.
Continued from list Page.l

Columbia three boat lengths be-
hind. The time of Cornell was 9:55. not
so good as that made by Yale in 1897
of 9:19 on the same course.
The weather was pleasant, and the
races were witnessed by good slzed
crowd. The observation train of forty
cars was thinly peopled, though eight
or ten cars were packed with coll ge
partisans, who had secured cars for
themselves. Coach Courtney Of Col
nell climbed out on the rocky ledge at
Crumell bow, and through glasses
watched the start and the progress OF
the shells down the river. He could not
tell how his boys were doing, but he
got the relative positions of the boats
at the mile and finish by the aid of the
smoke bombs exploded in accordance
with prearranged signals from the top
of the big bridge.
By these signals, people miles away
were able to know just how the boats
stood at the mile point and finish. Mr.
McConville, of the Wisconsin men,
watched the races from the observation
train, Speaking of the freshmen, he
said that if the work Of the youngsters
was any criterion by which to judge the
'varsties, he had no fear of either Co
lumbia or Pennsylvania in tomorrow's
contest.
DR.. Peet followed the freshman strug-
gle on the Columbia launch. He was
disappointed that his boys had not won,
but expressed satisfaction over the
manner in which they fought the last
part of the fight Ellis Ward was jul
bilant over the work of his four in the
first race, but the result of the second
sobered him somewhat. He declared,
however, that he had placed all his
hopes on his varsity crew for tonor-
row.
The scene at the Cornell quarters af-
ter the freshmen race was an inspiring
one. The boys crowded about Court
ney, cheering frantically and embrace
ing him. Tears came to Courtney's
eyes, but his face beamed with delight.
He praised the boys, but they declared
that he deserved the credit for the vic
tory
To reporter, Courtney said that the
freshmen race had resulted just as he
had expected. Referring to tomorrow S
varsity race, Courtney said: I'VE are
certainly going in to win, and if we
get beaten, we shall simply go back
home and get ready to come again next
year"
Courtney did not seem to mind tho
Cornell four's defeat.
The streets were kept lively tonight
by joyful Cornell partisans and others.
There was some exploding of firecrack-
ers, some shouting and much singing.
The hotel corridors swarmed with en-
thusiasts and sports, and wagers were
laid on the result Of tomorrow s. con-
test

HE TALKS WAR STRONG.
Chamberlain's Words a Dis
tinct Threat to
Dom Paul.

Birmingham, England, June 26.-Jos-
eph Chamberlain, secretary of state fol
the colonies, addressing the unionists of
this city this evening, reviewed careful
ly the Transvaal question In the
course of his speech he said that, owing
to the enormous military preparations
of the government of the South African
republic Great Britain had been COM
PEELED to increase the British garrison
in Cape Colony and Natal, entailing an
additional expenditure of G500,000 an
nually.
Mr. Chamberlain said the government
had tried to establish friendly relations
with President Kruger but all their adj
vances had been received with con-
tempt. After denouncing in the strong
est terms the attitude and actions of
the Beers, Mr.. Chamberlain with great
elaboration and emphasis added:
THE Transvaal's enormous secret
service fund has procured il friends and
advocates in every country. The way
the British subject there is treated is
not only a menace to them, but inter
feres with our prestige among the ma
tives, who now regard the Beers and
not the British as the paramount pow
er.
Besides the breaches of the London
convention, the Transvaal is 1agrantly
violating the equality that convention
was intended to secure. Its misgoveTn-
ment is a fostering sore, poisoning the
whole atmosphere of South Africa. The
Dutch in Cape Colony and Natal would
be in the happiest condition, but soflong
as the disease of hatred and suspicion
prevails in the Transvaal it is impossi-
BILE to stop the contagion.
-Four times since independence was
declared we have been on the verge of
war with the Transvaal. 1t is enron
eous to say that the British govern
ment wants war but it is also erroneous
to say that the government will draw
back now that it has put its hand to the
plow
1--WE hope the efforts that are now be-
ing made will lead to an amicable ar
rangement, for Great Britain only de-
sires justice, but there comes a time
when patience can hardly be distin-
guished from weakness and when moral
pressure becomes a farce that cannot
be continued without loss of self res
pect. l trust that time way never
come in this instance; but, if it does,
Britains will insist upon finding the
means to secure a result and send aid
to South Africa

THE LEASE is CLOSED.
Authoritative Confirmation of Boston and
Albany Deal.

New York, June 26.-The Tribune to-
morrow win say: The report that the
New York Central has come to an
agreement with the Boston & Albany
railroad by which the Central would
lease the Boston & Albany for a term of
999 Years and guarantee p. c. on the
stock was not a surprise either in rail-
road circles or in Wall street.
That the lease is practically closed
was confirmed from a trustworthy
source yesterday
When asked regarding the rumored
absorption of the Boston & Albany rail-
road by the New York Central, Presi-
dent Galloway Of the road later said to-
day.
Il have nothing to say in regard to
toe matter one way or the other"
At the office of j. Pierpont Morgan
who is said to be interested in the deal
equally indefinite statements were made
and with the exception of the rise in
Vanderbilt stock the rumor lacked de-
finite confirmation, although the pre-
vailing impression seemed to be that
there was much truth in it.

oRIENTs no BE ENTERED.

Daniel F. Casey has received a letter
from the Orient people, stating that
their automobiles will be entered
against the French machines in the
race which is to decide the superiority
of the French or the American make.
The race will be held in New York.
The French makers of the automobiles
have claimed all long that their ma
chimes were the superior of the Amer
lean make, which they said were four
years behind the times. They got a
better opinion of the American make
when the Orient automobiles beat out
the French machine manipulated by
Fourier, in the recent match race be-
tween Elkes and Gardiner. The
French make paced Gardiner,and Elkes
received his pace from the Orient ma
chimes. which proved the faster, land
ing Elkes a winner.
