CRUISER NEW ORLEANS.
Accident Prevented Her From Ar
irving in Time for Parade.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The United
States cruiser New Orleans arrived
this morning from Santo Domingo City.
The New Orleans was sent to Santo
Domingo to look after American in
terests during the recent troubles. AT
fairs having settled down, the New
Orleans was ordered to Tompkinsville.
She is under command of Captain
Edwin Longnecker. She left Santo
Domingo on the morning of Septem
ber 25th and was running at full speed
in order to get here in time to take
part in the Dewey naval parade. When
two days out two of her boiler heads
blew out and her speed was reduced to
a little over five miles an hour. The
officers of the cruiser were not inclined
tonight to talk about the accident to
her boilers, but it was learned that the
New Orleans is in very crippled con-
dition. She may be ordered to the
Brooklyn navy yard for repairs.
The trip was uneventful as the rev.
olution had subsided before the New
Orleans and the Machias arrived off
Santo Domingo. The officers saw
very little of the uprising of the in
surgents. The day after the cruiser
anchored off Santo Domingo City a
few of the officers We're sent ashore and
they witnessed the novel sight of the
insurgents taking peaceful possession
of a desolate looking place, which was
practically deserted.

THE BIG RACE.
A Larger Crowd Than Ever Before
Will Witness the Contest.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Columbia
Shamrock races will be witnessed by
throng vastly larger than that which
has attended previous contests for the
famous cup, and yet the racers will
have clean ground, owing to Federal
supervision of the courses. Yachts
men are coming from all parts of the
United States. The fleet of private
pleasure yachts now in these waters
is larger than ever before known. In
TACT, nearly every steam yacht in the
list is now anchored in the vicinity of
New York and pretty much all of
American society that is not afraid of
seasickness will be afoat tomorrow.
Hundreds Of enthusiastic yachtsmen
are already at the hotels and more are
expected to-day. Many of the know
ing ones have engaged rooms in ad-
vance at the Waldorf Astoria and the
Holland House. About 200 of Sir
Thomas Lipton's sympathizers are
booked for the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
Friends of Sir Thomas say that he
really expects to take the cup back to
English waters, and that the preliml-
nary work of the two boats has added
to his confidence as to the result Leav-
ing aside the consideration of what
the Columbia can do in reaching. it is
conceded that she can run before the

AN INSULT TO DEWEY.
Senator Hanna So Designates the
Talk of His Candidacy.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 1.-The Post"
will say: United States Senator Mark
Hanna says this of the possibility of
Admiral Dewey for the Presidency:
THE practice of continually placing
the name of Admiral Dewey on the list
of prospective Presidential candidates
is indecent. 1t is an insult and great
injustice to the hero of Manila Bay
as he himself has frequently said that
nothing in the world would induce him
to run for President or any other po-
litical office. To force upon this brave
and gallant sailor the need of again
and again declaring he will not accept
any political office is, in my opinion
contemplate, and places this man of
integrity, stern purpose and determina-
tion in the ranks of those shifting
aspirants for political honors who have
not the stamina to resist the f1attery
or Establishments of political schem-
ers.'
The Senator, when asked if Mr.. Nc
KinIey would positively be a candi-
date for the Presidency again, said
everything pointed that way.

Richard Rothwell and Frederick A. Lin
ger. for the collection of $4,000 due on
the contract to complete the work of the

alleged non performance of a contract en-
tered into between the first named de-
fendant, William c. Peake and William E.
Curtis, acting Secretary of the Treasury
OF the United States, in December, 1896,
by which the former agreed to furnish all
material and perform all labor necessary
to the completion of the work on the
interior of the postoffice building at Ale
ghany City, Pa. The other defendants
are sued as sureties for Peake.
The complainant states that Peake did
not perform the obligations of his con-
tract and has failed to pay for material
furnished by the Champion Iron Company
and which was used by him in the con-
struction of the Allegheny postoffice
building.
