COLUMBIA AND DEFENDER.
The Former Expected to Defeat the
Latter To-Day.

NEWPORT Or. -, Sept. 3.-With the
Columbias decisive victory over the
Defender on Saturday and an antici-
pated repetition of the feat tomorrow,
very few yachtsmen here+ are. looking
for third formal contest between the
two boats on Wednesday, at least not
under the auspices of the Americas Cup
Committee, for that body has practi-
cally made up it's mind as to the rela-
tive merits of the two yachts. In fact,
no one now has the least doubt as to
the Columbia's superiority and very
few question her ability to success
fully defend the cup against the Sham
rock.
The race tomorrow will be over a
thirty-m triangular course, one leg
of which will be to the windward, and
the Columbia is expected to defeat the
old boat at least seven or eight min
utes.
From the allowance table received by
the Regatta Committee of the New
York Yacht Club yesterday, it appears
that the Columbia defeated the De-
fender on Saturday by 3 minutes, 10
seconds.
The Regatta Committee will an
nounce at the conclusion of to-morrow's
race whether the boats will race again
on Wednesday.

SENATOR FAIRBANKS TALKS.
Tells the German Societies the Flag
Should Be Upheld.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept 3.-To-day
fifty-two German societies of this city
with oU0 guests from outside points,
celebrated German Day" in accord
ance with an elaborate program that
included a magnificent street parade of
5000 members of the various German
societies.
DR.. N. J. Elshimer, President of the
Cincinnati College of Music, was the
German orator of the day in the elabo-
rate exercises at Germania Park, where
5000 people gathered.
Senator Fairbanks delivered the Eng
lish grafton, in the course Of which he
took occasion to justify the Philippine
policy of the national Administration in
the following words:
AS one of the results of the Spanish
American war, our flag was carried into
the Philippines. 1t went upon no mis-
sion of vengeance against the Philip
pines, it went to overthrow Spanish au-
thority which had been maintained for
upward of 800 years. Our flag went as
the symbol of the power and authority
of our Government. 1t is there law
fully and in pursuance of the cession
OF the treaty of peace. The treaty of
peace was ratified by the Senate of the
United States after full debate after
deliberate consideration; and by virtue
of it's ratification and exchange the
possession of the islands passed to the
jurisdiction of the United States. While
the treaty of peace was under consid-
Grafton and before its ratification Agui-
naldo and his deluded followers fired
upon our soldiers and undertook to
drive them from the islands They fired
upon the flag which meant to them de-
liverance from Spanish tyranny, all of
which was in sirect and positive re-
bellion against the authority of the
Government. No course was left open
to the President therefore but to sub
due the rebellion and compel recog-
milton of the authority and jurisdiction
of the United States. This presents no
party question. 1t is purely and simply
a question as to whether the United
States shall maintain it's rights and
supremacy in the territory which has
been lawfully committed to its author
ity and keeping"
