NEW RACING AGREEMENT.
After Thursday the Heats viii Come
Daily Until End.

New York, Oct. S.-By a mutual
agreement between the representatives
of the New York Yacht club and the
Royal Ulster Yacht club, the Columbia
and Shamrock will sail every day after
next Thursday until the question of in
ternationa1 yachting supremacy is es-
tabIished.
The request for such an agreement
came from Sir Thomas Upton, owner
of the challenger. Sir Thomas wanted
the races to be sailed daily after next
Tuesday, but the members of the New
York Yacht club refused to assent to
such an arrangement.
The meeting at which the arrange
ment for a change in the dates was
reached was held at the New York
Yacht club today. There were present
r. Sharnan Crawford and FL. McGiN
Downey. representing the Royal Yacht
club and Lewis Cass LedyaTd, j. V. 5.
Oddie, F. w Hurst, Edward M. Brown
and H V. Ltppitt, representing the
New York Yacht club. AT the cOnclu-
sion OF the meeting the following
agreement was drawn up and given out
'"The foregoing agreement (the chal-
lenge agreement) is further modified by
mutual consent as follows:
'.Strfke out the clause beginning, The
first race shall be sailed on Tuesday,
Oct. 8, 1899 and substitute the follow
ing:
s'The races shall be sailed ON the fol-
lowing dates until the series be COM
pleted viz: Oct. 10, 1889; Oct. II, and
ON each following day except Sunday;
provided, however, that Immediately on
the conclusion of the race on Oct. i,
and of each subsequent race. the regat-
ia committee shall inquire of each con-
testant whether he is willing to start
the next day. and should either contest
ant answer in the negative, one day
shall intervene before starting the next
race. Sunday shall not count as such
intervening day.
The agreement was signed by the
members of the committees represent
ing both yacht clubs interested.
At the conclusion of the meeting, Sec
rotary eddie said:
an case the boats sail On the day
following a race, the committee boat
will display the international code let
ter Il of blue and yellow squares. II
there is to be no race, the letter NJ,
blue. with a diagonal white stripe, Will
be displayed from the committee Boat.
The club suggests that each yacht and
boat present take UP and display the
signal given by the committee boat.
@There was no friction in reaching
the agreement as to the change of
dates. Sir Thomas Upton at first ask
ed that the races be started daily after
TUESDAY. The club decided that this
would Be hardly prudent. In the first
place, it would be entirely unfair to the
public Thousands of persons have
made Arrangements to attend the races
on a certain day. hundreds Of excur
sions have been arranged for, and to
make d. change in the racing dates on
so short a. notice would not be right TO
the public.
The club ia deeply grateful for the
manner in which the. public has been
acting at the races. There has been no
interference with the boats whatever.
The club is grateful to the public for
this. and ii would not be right to make
such sudden change iI racing days.
We are endeavoring to please the pub
lie, as well as the visitors

Admiral Dewey is too patriotic to re-

MINERS RESCUED.
Yacht Brings Gold Seekers Back
From Cane Nome.

San Francisco, Oct. S-The steam
yacht Townsend. owned by c. d. Lane.
the millionaire miner, has arrived here
from Cape Nome. She brought down
several miners, who had with them
considerable gold dust. Captain Wicks
Of the Townsend made trip to Kotze-
hue sound from Cape Nome in July and
rescued seventy of them. who had gone
there IN the hope Of finding gold. They
were on the point of breaking down
from the want of food and proper cloth
ing. and would undoubtedly have per-
tshed miserabiy if Lane had not sent
his yacht to remove them to Cape
Nome. Eighty-three others were taken
to St Michael by the revenue cutter
Bear Most of them had scurvy. and
MANY had lost hands and feet by being
frozen. 1t is thought that the men
rescued by the Townsend Will recover
in the milder climate of Cape Nome.
