the average Haytian, even the savage

IsELIN GIVES 1T UP.
VIII Not Participate in Any More
Cup Defense Events.
From the Philadelphia Times.

From the Philadelphia Times.
On authority of friends of G. Oliver Ise-
lin, it may be announced that the three
times successful champion of Americas
cup will no longer guard that priced tro-
ply. Mr. Iselin is said to have declared
that he will not again undertake to build
or manage a yacht for an international
race. His retirement may be followed by
that of Nat Herreshoff, designer of the
three fleet vessels that have kept the
British yachtsmen out of sight OF the cup.
At the finish of the last race between
the Columbia and the Shamrock, just at
the moment when scores of steam whis-
ties and thousands of hearty cheers were
telling the story of the home boats sue
cessfuI defense of the cup both Mr.. lse-
lin and Capt. Herreshoff made some sig
nificant remarks.
Mr.. Iselin crossed the Columbia's quar-
terdeck. to where Mr.. Herreshom was
standing, and, shaking the designer
hand, said deliberately:
Mr.. Herreshoff, this is my last Amer
ica's cup race"
Cant. Nat returned Mr.. Iselin's earnest
gaze, and replied in his quiet way:
"And it is also my last, Mr.. Iselin."
From 1898 to 1899 Mr.. Iselin and Mr.
Herreshoff have been associated in the de-
Tense of the old trophy, which Sir Thomas
Upton wanted to lift" so badly. First,
il was with the Vigilant, in 1893; next with
the Defender, in 1895, and then the Co
lumbia. All these winning boats We're de-
signed by Capt. Nat Herreshof, and Mr..
Iseln was the managing owner of each.
This record needs no comment.
1t required nearly a year to build the
Vigilant and get her into racing shape
The Defender took a similar period, and
1t was about fourteen months from the
time that the Columbias model was de-
cided upon TO the last of her races with
the Shamrock. The strain on both the de-
signer and the managing owner, particu-
larly in the late match, was so great their
intimate friends are not now surprised to
hear that they have sailed the last Of
their cup matches.
Whether the decision made by Mr.. Her
reshoff means that he will not design an
other cup defender has not and possibly
may not be easily ascertained, as he is a
man of very few words and keeps his own
counsel; and it is not at all probable that
MIR. Iselin will talk of his future plans.
But there the case stands. The remarks
quoted were made as given, and have been
since repeated by those who heard them.

krupp has not only acquired the owner
ship to the lands which supply most of
his raw material, but he has also laid in
large stocks purchased abroad.
Vast Prosecutions of To-day.
For a long time four Krupp iron ore
steamships were constantly plying between
the north coast of Spain and Rotterdam,
carrying the ore of the famous mines OF
Bilboa TO the Dutch port, whence 1t was
sent up the Rhine to within eighteen miles
of Essen. To-day the coal and iron mines
owned by Krupp, and his subsidiary blast
furnaces and Steel works are scattered
far and wide His works at Kiel alone en-
ploy 1000 men, and those Of Magdeburg-
Bdckau S,5iS men, and over 1000 men are
employed In his foundries. In 1858, six
years after there began to be demand
for Krupp's products, he had all told ] ,0H
men in his service. on Jan. l this year
there were on the pay rolls of the present
Krupp the names of a, $50 men, of whom
25,lS3 were employed in the work at Es-
sen, and the rest were scattered among
his various manufacturing and mining en-
tehprises.
Such an establishment as this affords
some very Interesting statistics. In 1895
there were in the cast-steel work at Essen
over 5000 implements and machines be
sides 45S steam engines with total Of ~
ing used in TRANSMIT ttng this power was
over forty miles. The twelve Krupp blast
furnaces on the Rhine consumed daily
900 tons of iron ore and produced / 200 tons
of pig iron. In the statistical year 1896
96 over 1000 900 tons of coal and coke were
consumed, or $3.50 tons a day OF which
9 500 tons day were the product OF
Krupp's own coal mines. The consump-
ton of water in the establishment at Es-
sen is equal to that of Dresden with Its
$4,000 inhabitants. 1t consumes as much
illuminating gas as the city of Breslau
which Is a litte larger than Dresden
Fifty miles of railroad track on the prem

are 800 telephones in the establishment
with about fifty miles of wire Germany
is the third greatest iron country in the
world and yet a twentieth of its entire
output of iron ore comes from the Krupp
mines and is manufactured in the Krupp
works Krupp also buys from an eighth
10 a tenth of all the iron ore and pig iron
imported into Germany from foreign lands,
and this gigantic enterprise Is the largest
producer in the German empire. The
freight bills Krupp pays TO the Prussian
