Many Are the Eyes Watching the
Outcome
Of the Sailing Race Between the Columbia
and the Shamrock.
The Two Ships VIII Make Another
Effort To-Day to Sail the Course
Which is to Determine the
Holder of the Americas Cup.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-The Columbia
and Shamrock did not leave their moor
ings inside Sandy Hook to-day. Not a
sail cover was taken off, notwitnstand-
ing the fact that the sun shone bright
ly a good part of the day, and would
have afforded an excellent opportunity
to dry out what dampness there might
have been in the canvas 1t was an
off day for the crews of both boats,
and, barring a watch Of half dozen
men on each craft, not soul was on
board.
Captain Barr spent most of the day
in town. He has every confidence IN
the Columbia, for he says the months
that he has sailed her in all kinds OF
weather during the past summer have
convinced him that she is superior to
the English cutter. The sight Of the
big kites that the Shamrock has been
displaying during the past two weeks,
especially the huge club topsail, does
not cause the little Scotchman any
alarm, for he feels they will not be of
any use in a breeze that will move the
challenger at anything more than a
snails pace.
The Columbia's crew is not suffering
bit from the many attempts to have
a race, but the men would like to see
a good sailing breeze before snow flies,
they say, as they are not anxious to
handle sails when it is cold enough to
stiffen the canvas and rigging.

Some Of the customers OF Mr. MILLER's
Franklin Syndicate in Brooklyn are chuck
ling over their smartncss in having got in
and got out again early enough TO carry off
more money than they put in. They say
that they felt sure tho concern would go to
pieces sooner or later, but took the chance
OF its lasting moro than the ton weeks
necessary. with payments Of 10 per cent. q
week. TO return them at least 100 per cent.
OF their capital. After that, every week
gave them a profit OF 10 per cent and In
some cases the aggregate OF these surplus
payments Is said TO have amounted 10
another 100 per cent.
Tho assets OF the syndicate have become
the subject OF dispute between an assignee
selected by Mr.. MILLER and receiver ap-
pointed by the Supreme Court, but one or
the other OF the two will have TO collect
them and divide them as tho law directs,
From whom shall the money be collected,
and among whom shall II be divided?
The syndicate was not n corporation;
consequently tho holders Of it's receipts for
money paid 10 Mr. MILLER though nomi-
nally stockholders were not really such
They were either creditors or partners. II
they were creditors their contracts for $50
per cent. interest per annum are void for

to be paid them as profits then they ali
