UNSUCCESSFUL MISSION.
Worcester Committee Did Not Get Additional
Entries at Boston, But Do Not Despair.


Entries at Boston, But Do Not Despair.
P. H. Hurley and Louis E. Ware,
members of the committee on manage
ment Of the Quinsigamond International
regatta, went to Boston yesterday to
secure, if possible, entries in the double
sculls and four-oared shell races at the
regatta at the lake. Monday and Tues
day. They were not successful. The
double of the Delaware Boat club was
desirous and the men were interviewed.
they expressed a willingness, but fear
they have not been entered by their
Grub. The Argonaut four, which was
sought, desires to compete in the Can
adam championships which take place
at Toronto Aug. and 4, and fear they
could not make connections. The at
tempt to secure entries will not be
dropped. John H. Meagher, chairman
of the committee on management, will
go to Boston today and have another
talk with the scullers.
Mr. Hurley returned last evening. He
was on the Charles river during the day
watching the work of the various scull-
ers and oarsmen. He says the regatta
Will be the biggest in the history of the
association. The number of entries is
exceptionally large. Mr.. Hurley paid
particular attention to the rowing of
Ten Eyck and his rivals in the cham
pionship senior single SOULS. He says
Mcguire is rowing powerful stroke.
Mr.. Hurley is much impressed with the
rowing Of Whitehead, and thinks he
would be a great sculler if properly
boated. His gigantic stature handicaps
him in this respect.
The other Wachusett scullers, Lewis,
who is entered in the association senior
single SOULS, and Kerns, who is in the
intermediate singles, received word
OF commendation from Mr.. Hurley
The Ten Eyck and Lewis party is
staying at the Copley Square hotel.
Thus far no betting has developed on
the championship senior singles, des-

FRENCH HARD BARGAINERs.
Diplomats Say They Got All They Wanted
In Treaty Negotiations.

Washington, July 2s.-Much surprise
has been caused in official circles by
the unexpected opposition developing in
France to the ratification Of the reci-
procity treaty. 1t can be stated author
itatiyely that, in the opinion of our
own officials, the French have driven a
hard bargain in making the treaty.
They have, it is said, secured more
advantages than they had any just
reason to expect at the beginning of
the negotiations, and that success was
ultimately obtained, is owing to the
fact that the negotiators felt bound to
observe the behest Of the president and
make q treaty at all hazards There
is reason to believe that when the
champagnemakers learn the amount of
benefit they are to receive, opposition
TO the contamination of the treaty will
be transferred from France to the
United States.

Catches Favorable Puff and Captures
Quincy Club Cup.

Quincy. July 26.-The third race for
the Quincy Yacht Club challenge cup
for 21-footers was won today by the
Annisquam challenger Thelma in a
most exciting drifting finish. Within
five minutes Of the time Thelma floated
over the line. any one of the four other
boats, Pompano, Heiress Hostess and
Osgrook, had a chance to finish ahead
of her, provided they could catch ia
vorable zephyr, for they were all with
in mailing distance of the buoy.
The Thelma, however, after alternat-
ing the lead with the Pompano all the
afternoon, managed to get the neces-
sary puff which gave her the gun. For
three hours the yachts wrestled with
fog, Gains and winds from all points Of
the compass, SO that no one had at any
time safe lead.

Albany, N. Y, July 26.--State Comp
troller Morgan has written to Superin-

fusing positively to pay T. J. Dwyer &
CO. the sum of $3S.o57.15, an alleged
balance said to be due on contract
for Improving the Erie canal from the
east line Of Oneida county to lock 46.
The comptroller declines to pay on
the ground that David Smell of Pales-
tine Bridge, was member of the firm
to which the contract was let, and at
the same time was an employee of the
public works department, a violation Of
the constitution; also that the final
price of the work exceeded the contract
price by AZ per cent, and that the ar
rangement between the contractors and
the state engineer whereby an extra al
lowance of $4,000 was made. was en-
tirely Illegal.
This is the decision in the first of ten
cases to be decided by the comptroller.
amounting to over $S60.00O. The other
cases will be taken up later. 1t is un-
derstood that Gov. Roosevelt has or
dered a test to be made in each case.

MAST COMPLETED.
Top Spar VIII Fit Inside the Larger
Stick


Bristol, R. L, July 26.-The Column
bias steel mast was completed this af-
ternoon and weighed, but the figures
were not announced. The workmen
also completed the new topmast for the
Columbia, and it will be so rugged on
the larger spar as to be easily housed
inside the steel mast, sliding down
without difficulty.
This is the first time that such an
arrangement has been tried on any
yacht and there, is considerable inter-
est manifested in the outcome of the
experiment. The men who worked on
the steel mast were engaged steadily
from noon yesterday until 6 o'clock to-
night, only stopping for meals. 1t is
expected that the Columbia will be
hauled out into the stream tomorrow,
to enable the Defender to be cleaned.

Crsmatcd All the Cucumbers.

San Francisco, March 2.-State
Horticultural Inspector Alaxan-
der Craw yesterday prevented the
landing on American soil of a
choice collection of pernicious
maggots which arrived in a con-
signmept of cucumb ers on the
steamship Australia. The mag
got, Craw says, is the most dis
gusting pest known to horticul
turists. As far as be knows il
has never gained entrance to the
United States and, il he can pre-
vent it, never will. Had the
shipment condemned yesterday
been landed and allowed to 90 on
the market, Mr.. Craw believes the
pest known as the melon and
cucumber maggot, would have
spread all over the country in
twelve months. 1t has gained a
strong hold in the islands of the
South Seas. 1t is very prolific,
almost impossible to eradicate
and one of the most destructive
parasites so far discovered.

OF Taro Planting.

or Taro Planting.
KALAUPAPA, MoLoKAI, March
9.-The work of laying the new
water pipe is progressing very
slowly.
For the past month there have
been occasional showers of rain
and on Sunday the 9Th there was
a real downpour all night, and on
Monday and Tuesday. There
was very little damage done, but
water was running BIZ. h 10 all the
streams and rushing down the
hillsides.
G. B. Reynolh., while over
seeing the work , { digging the
ditch for the pipe aloug the beach,
was knocked over into the ditch
by wave from the roug sea.
Laborers on theIpipe laying are
mostly lepers with q few kokuas.
They were engaged at fifty cents a
day, but within the past few days
struck for more pay and were
granted seventy-five cents. on con-
dition of working six full days a
week. 1t they lose day, then
they get only fifty cents for the
days worked. Next they struck
against that one day proposition,
and now have their full pay of
seventy five cents for every day
worked.
The taro planting is still mov-
ing slowly and not much at that.
Putting altogether what is now
planted and what is to come, it
would not be enough to supply
the settlement three months. Pal
al contractors need not be fright
ened off their bids, as the time for
the present contract will be up in
two or three months from now.
