~thori Decide that the Yellow
Fever I'm Southeast Virginia L. over

Newport News, August 10.-The vel
low fever epidemic is practically at an
end. The quarantine established by this
city against Hampton and ~vicin.ty was
raised tonight, following a conference
between h health boards of Newport
News, Richmond, Norfolk AMI Hamp-
ton, with the state board OF health and
representatives Ct the marina hospital
service. The local quarantine against
Norfolk remains in force, bus will be
raised Saturday evening.
The record of the scourge - his date
shows a total of forty-three cases, of
which eleven resulted fatally. Twelve
cases We're discharged as cured and
twenty conValescentS remain in the
hospital at the soldiers homo.
An interesting episode of the dread
malady was the uprising Of the bust
ness men of the city against Norfolk,
because of the quarantine of that city
against Newport News, which was re-
garded as premature and unnecessary
h action of the Norfolk health au-
thorltleS was at a public
meeting and the majority of Tie bust
ness men pledged themselves to trans
fer their patronage to Richmond. Pro-
vid1ng the Chesapeake and Ohio rail-
way would grant satisfactory rates.

THE DEFENDER WINS
From the Columbia by n Hairs cad
in a Race In Very Dirty Weather

Vineyard Haven, Mass, August TO-
The old Defender practically won a
race against Columbia today, if time
sort of weather for a yacht club cruise;
but the victory, it must be admitted,
was more than we'll earned, and the
yachtsmen of the New York Club and
may not see again for years, such q
sailing. The margin between the ia
nous slOopS was fourteen seconds over
a minute IN the thirty-seven mile run
from Brenton's Reef lightship off
Newport. to the West Chop buoy in
Vineyard sound, with a change in
course at Vineyard sound lightship,
seventeen and a quarter miles from the
start.
The race between the Columbia and
the Defender was soul-stirring. After
both got away over the startling line
it was nip and tuck with eased sheets,
for Utmost an hour, the Defender just
a hairs breadth, comparatively speak
ing, in the lead, with the Columbia
abeam. Even after the Columbia made
a gain so that the Defender could cross
under her stern, the Columbia did not
walk away, as the heavy breeze hove
the latter down and made her lose dis
lance on repeated tufts.
Today's race and the performance
of the Columbia was satisfactory on
the score of heavy weather. She took
all that came n while easing up sew
eral times that was no evidence that
she would have had too much of a
good thing if a stake were pending on
the outcome Of the race.
