Shamrock Will Take Her
First Trial on This

New York, Aug. 29.-Tomorrow the
Shamrock may take her first trial spin
in American waters under her racing
flag.
In tow of the tug Lawrence, the
Shamrock left her pier in Erie basin
at 1890 o'clock today. On her way out,
when at a point opposite the Boston
dry dock No. l she grounded on the east
edge of the channel
The steam dredger Samson was lying
in mid-channel at work There was not
room for the yacht to pass. between her
and the west bank of the channel She
fetched up easily and was pulled off in
Is minutes, but the incident developed
the fact that the Shamrock draws fully
"a feet of water, for soundings taken
after she was clear showed that depth
where she had been.
1t is said the Shamrocks present rig
is to be amplified when she is in actual
fighting trim. Those who are depressed
by that statement may be consoled by
the fact that she will pay the penalties

every inch of sail she carries above the

MCLEAN GENEROUS.
Tells Delegations to Vote
as Instructed on First
Ballot.

GAINESVILLE, O., Aug. 29.-Although the
democratic state ticket will not be nom
mated till tomorrow, the result was de-
cisively forecasted in the preliminary
meetings this evening. The Mclean
men carried a large majority of the Il
congressional districts, and will control
not only the convention, but also all the
party machinery in Ohio until the next
presidential election, since the members
of all committees have been selected,
and through them all the officers of the
convention, as well as those who will be
In charge of the campaign.
The Mclean men are disposed to be
liberal to their opponents. After it was
found that Mclean had at the district
meetings secured control of all commit
tees, many called on him tonight and
promised support from unexpected
quarters. Mclean and his managers
then advised that all the candidates for
governor be voted for on the first bal
lot, as originally instructed.
1t is quite probable that the name of
Mr.. Mclean will be presented to the
convention very briefly Mr.. Mclean
does not know who will present his
name. Gen. A. ]. Warner will present
the name of Col. Kilbourne, and much
eloquance will be expended on the other
candidates.

HUNDREDS FOR SERVICE.
Nearly All Volunteers Of
Spanish War Apply
Again.

Washington, Aug. 29.-With about 100
commissioned places yet to fill in the
ten new regiments under organization,
Secretary Root finds himself over
whelmed with applications, even great
err in number than the sum total of
those received at the beginning of the
Spanish-American war. 1t is said at
the war department that the large ma
jority of the men who held commits
sions in the volunteer army in that war
are again applicants for service in the
Philippine campaign, reinforced by
nearly all of those who held non-com-
missioned places. This same willing
ness to re-enter the service is observ-
able among enlisted men, and officials
cite Col. Bells regiment, the Twenty
seventh Voluntary infantry, made up
of As per cent of men who served as
volunteers in the Spanish-American
war. Although recruiting for the new
ten volunteer regiments has not yet
been actively started In all parts Of the
country 2764 men have already been
secured for these regiments, including
157 enrolled yesterday. Additional re-
cruiting stations are being established.
Major John A. Logan, son of
the late General John A. Lo-
gan, was recently appointed by the
president a major in the volunteer ar
my, but his name was accidentally
omitted from the lists He has been
assigned to the thirty-third infantry.

ALABAMA a SUCCESS.
Big Battleship Credit to Her Builders
on First Trial.

Lewis, Del, Aug. 29.-The builders
trial trip of battleship Alabama today
resulted in the development of a maxi
mum speed Of Tx knots. There was a
drizzing rain part of the day, and fog
hung over the water. On the first run
the Alabama, under 1O315 revolutions
per second, averaged 1925 knots per
hour over a course of liz knots. She
steamed over the course twice in a
moderate sea, half the way against the
wind.
On the second run, under forced
draught, 11412 revolutions per second,
the average speed was 1888 knots and
on this run the Alabama attained a
maximum of 17A or IL knots above the
required 16 knots. The trial was made
in open sea and in shoal water, between
the northwest and southeast five faith
ON lights. The wind was from the
northeast, about 80 miles an hour.
The trial was satisfactory in every
respect, and Edwin S. Cramp, Of the
William Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine
Building CO., said the builders We're de-
lighted with the showing made. Several
officers of the Russian navy, who were
aboard. expressed favorable opinions of
the Alabama's seagoing qualities.

London, Aug. Accommodating on the
latest uterance of President Kruger of
the TransvaaI government that the
South African republic adhered to its
latest offer and would not make any
further concessions, the afternoon pa
pers unanimously draw attention to the
increased seriousness of the Transvaal
crisis. But in the same breath they
express uncertainty regarding the ma
ture of the concessions beyond which
President Kruger says he will not go.
No official announcement has been
made of these, though they are gem
orally understood to be a five-year
franchise and increased outlander rep
resentation.

BAR ASSOCIATION.

Lindsey's Address and Committee
Reports Features of Second Day.
Buffalo, Aug. 29.-The annual address
before the American Bar Association
was delivered this morning by Senator
Lindsey of Kentucky, who spoke on the
American constitution. When Senator
Lindsay had concluded reports of
standing committees were called for.
The committee on commercial law was
requested to proceed with its work in
the direction of peHecting the bankrupt
law. The committee on international
law also reported. The recommended
ton of the committee in favor of in
ternational arbitration was unanimous
ly adopted. The following cable mes
sage was sent p President Choate:-
Choate, Ambassador, London:-
American Bar Association in session
Buffalo, sends greetings and best
wishes and regrets your inability to at
tend. Manderson.
The committee on grievances submit
ted a resolution of sympathy with Mai
tire Labor, the defender of Dreyfus but
it was tabled on a close vote. The com
mittee on law reporting made q report
reporters form an association to secure
uniformity in Jaw reporting. AT the af-
ternoon session, Sir William Kennedy,
justice of the high court of England,
was introduced and delivered an ad-
dress.
AT the conclusion of Justice Kenne-
dy's address, the committees on title of
real estate and on treaties and conven-
tons made reports.
Chairman Henderson suggested that
a way to approach congress in the mat
ter of titles to real estate would be to
present memorial instead of Offering
bill such as the committee had pre-
pared. The suggestion was accepted,
and the committee was instructed to
draft a memorial to congress asking for
the relief desired.
Edmund Wetmore of New York
moved that the committee on patents
be instructed to attempt to secure such
a revision of the laws that the testf-
mony OF husband or wife may be adj
mitted in patent cases as in other trials
at law. The motion was adopted.
A number of papers were read before
the section of patent law. United
States Commissioner of Patents Fl. G.
Buell. was present and addressed the
members. The section then elected
Frederick p. Fish of Boston as chair
man. Arthur Stewart of Baltimore was
reelected secretary.
