No Mystery About the Shamrock
Upton Sails Tomorrow

London, Aug. 25.--Sir Thomas Upton,
owner of the Americas cup challenger
Shamrock, when interviewed today re-
garding the secrecy that has been main
tanned about the yachts build, said there
was no more mystery about the Sham
rock than the Columbia. He was not
aware, he said. that the Columbia had
been publicly exhibited. nor that anything
more was known about her than about
the Shamrock
Continuing, Sir Thomas Upton said
When the official measurer does his
work every detail will be known 1t will
be square race, with no impeding At
the first attempt at such a thing we will
abandon the race and make a protest
Mr.. lselin is as determined as I am to
have clear course if we have to start a
score of times.
Il should have been glad to have Capt
Parker and the cream of the Meteor S
crew, but doubtless Emperor William
considered it tactful to withhold his con-
sent. / leave tomorrow"
New York. Aug. 25.-Capt Matthews
Of Sir Thomas Lipton's steamyacht Erin
denied today that the Shamrock was in
any way strained. He said the yacht
was thoroughly washed out yesterday and
was afterwards pumped out, which prob
ably gave rise to the report that she was
leaking

ened with powder. The story of the
crime and the events which led up to it
are told by Jim Young as follows:
Young is an uncle of Mrs. Eckert and
has been visiting the Eckerts for some
time. He says that Eckert was very
jealous of his wife. Yesterday afternoon
Mrs. Eckert and Jake Minor, an uncle
of hers, who is also visiting at the Eek
erts, went to the fair. Eckert and Young
did not go. During the late afternoon
Young and Eckert got into a conversa-
ton ana Eckert told Young of his jeal-
ousy and said that he was suspicious of a
man who is employed in the car shops
This was between and o'clock and
while the two men were in conversation
Minor came home alone. Eckert asked
where his wife was and Minor said that
he supposed she was at the fair grounds.
Eckert asked why she did not come home
with Minor and Minor replied that they
had become separated in the crowd and
lost track Of each other. Eckert asked
Minor if he had seen a certain other man
at the fair and Mil.or said he had not.
The words had hardly left his mouth
when Jack Turner and Mrs. Eckert
came walking down the street. They
did not stop at the house and Eckert
jumped up and went after them. Soon
the three came back to the house to-
gether and entered into conversation
Turner turned to Minor and said
Where did you go when | left YOU IN
the grandstand?' At this Eckert turned
angrily to Minor and asked why he had
