Seriously Ill.
Special Dispatch to, The Call.

CHICAGO, Oct. S.-A special to the
Chronicle from Webster Iowa, says: Will
lam ]. Bryan is a very sick man to-day.
Friends who have spent Sunday with him
at the farm of Fred F. White, Democratic
candidate for Governor of Iowa. three
miles from Webster, are afraid that Mr..
Bryan may have to temporarily abandon
his campaign work. not only in Iowa, but
in Kentucky and Ohio
When Mr.. Bryan awoke this morning
he complained about his throat and lungs
but said that he had suffered from a SINH
lar ailment once before, and that 1t had
yielded to treatment
Great crowds of farmers from all over
Keokuk County called at the White farm
to see Mr.. Bryan during the morning and
afternoon, and although he tried hard to
remain outdoors his physical weakness
mastered his courage and he had to retire
several times to his room. A local phy-
sician who was called in tonight to treat
the invalid recommended q long term Of
absolute rest and quiet.
1t is understood tonight that stems will
be taken by interested friends to cancel

two and three speeches daily and a tour

LIPTONS LADS EXPECT
TO CAPTURE THE CUP

NEW YORK. Oct. S.-Shamrock stock
has taken another rise. There is a feel
ing about town tonight that the historic
cup is in greater danger than ever beore.
The more yesterdays performance IS con-
sidered and discussed. the less encourage
ing it seems to the American yachtsmen
The Shamrock is a wonder in light
weather. That is settled beyond a doubt
by the three days of drifting She has
surprised her own people and has given
the other people a great shock. She
handles spleudidly and has men on board
who know how TO do the handling The
feeling Of the American yachtsmen that
the challenger was entering the races un-
prepared and untried has disappeared
They have seen her fit for the struggle,
and they know that she is ready to do her
best. In response to an inquiry made this
afternoon as to what was being done by
way of preparation, her managers said:
Nothing. There she is, ready for the
gun"
Each side is confident, but It must be
admitted that the hackers of the green
boat are showing the most hope They
say they know what she can do in heavy
weather. 1t only required three days Of
drift to convince them that she was lust
as good IN light air. The whole Shamrock
contingent is happy and there is no one to
begrudge them their pleasant moments.
The Columbia people are not unhappy bv
any means. On the contrary, they still
confidently assert that. of course, the cup
stays. But they have been shocked and
they have been shocked in a most de-
cisive manner. They know there will be
no walkoyer. They know more than this,

few words to the colored folk. The dimly
lighted little chapel, with its humble ap-
pointments was in strange contrast to
the magnificence of the scene with the
services earlier in the day.
The President said: My friends, 1t
gives me very great pleasure to meet
with you this memorable day. The
noblest sentiments of the human heart
after love of God is love of country, and
stone of strength and safety Your race
has demonstrated it's patriotism by it's

for it. That is the greatest test of fidel-

ciated the valor and patriotism of the
black men of the United States. They not
only fought In Cuba, but in the Philip
pines, and they are carrying the flag as
the symbol of liberty and hope to an op-
After breakfast, which the President
ate with Mrs. Mckinley and Miss Bar
Der, Mr.. Mckinley received informal calls
from members of the Presidential party.

Mrs. Mckinley and Miss Barber had ar

should ride with the city's distinguished
guests.
AT the last moment Mrs. Mckinley an
nounced her own desire to have the com
pany of her husband during the ride. The
disappointed IrlO OF committeeman aC-
cepted this with good grace and climbed
into a carriage by themselves.
Whenever the President appeared in
his carriage on the street he was fol-
lowed by a throng of people in all sorts
of vehicles from the bicycle to the auto
mobile. So persistent and withal so
pretty was little Harry Allen Storm, who,
mounted on his wheel, in his Lord
Fauntleroy toggery, followed by the Presi-
dent, that upon his arrival at the hotel
from the home of Captain McWilliams
the nations chief sent for the boy, shook
the lads hand and covered him with
confusion by his kindly words of greet
ing.
over 5000 persons were present at the
Auditorium tonight, attending the union
religious service. Hundreds were turned
away The appearance of President Nc
Kinley was the signal for wild applause
The entire audience arose and handker-
chiefs waved the ChautauQua salute
The President stood in his box and bowed
to the audience repeatedly. Mrs. Nc
Ktnley did not attend the services.

~ | agreement between the representa-
VI tives Of the New York Yacht Club
\ and the Royal Ulster Yacht Club
Il the Columbia and Shamrock will
sail every day after next Thursday until
the question Of international yachting su-
premaCy is established.
The request for such an arrangement
came from Sir Thomas Upton, owner OF
the challenger. Sir Thomas wanted the
races to be sailed daily after next Tues
day, but the members of the New York
Yacht Club refused to assent to such an
arrangement.
The meeting at which the arrangement
for a change in the dates was reached
was held at the New York Yacht Club to-
day. There were present R. Sharman
Crawford and II. McGill Downey. repre-
sentng the Royal Yacht Club and Lewis
Cass Ledyard, J. Y. S. Oddie, T. w.
Hurst. Edward NJ. Brown and H. f. Lip
pitt. representing the New York Yacht
Club. At the conclusion of the meeting
the following agreement was drawn up
and given out for publication:
The foregoing agreement (the challenge
agreemenD is further modified by mutual
consent as follows:
Strike out the clause beginning the
first race shall be sailed on Tuesday,
October 3, 1S99.' and substitute the follow
ing: The races shall be sailed on the fol-

&" October 10, 1899: October u. and on
each following day except Sunday; pro-
vided. however. that Immediately on the
conclusion of the race on October II. and
Of each subsequent race, the regatta COM
mittee shall inquire of each contestant
whether he is willing to start the next
day, and should both contestants answer
in the negative one day shall intervene
before starting the next race. Sunday
shall not be counted as such intervening
day"
The agreement was signed by the men,
bers of the committees representing both
yacht clubs interested.
At the conclusion of the meeting Secre-
tary Oddie said:
IN case the boats sail on the day fol-
lowing r race the committee boat will dis
play the international code letter L. OF
blue and yellow squares. If there is to
be no race the letter M blue with dag
onal white stripes. 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 COM
mittee boat.
There was no friction in reach'ro the
agreement as to the change Of dates. Sir
Thomas Upton at first asked that the
races be started daily after Tuesday. The
club decided that this would hardly be
prudent. In the first place. it would be
entirely unfair TO the public. Thousands
Of persons have made arrangements to at
tend the races on n certain day Hun
dreds of excursions have been arranged
for, and to make a change in the racing
dates on so short a notice would not be
right to the public
THE club is deeply grateful for the
manner IN which the public has been act
ing at the races. There has been no in
reference with the boats whatever. The
club IS grateful to the public for this and
It would not be right TO make such a
sudden change IN racing days. We are
endeavoring to please the public as well
