publican organization was. successful In all
but the twenty-frst assembly district

county committee, was successful. Tam
many Hall was successful In holding con-
troll of the democratic organization in all
districts. John c. Sheehan failed to re-
capture the leadership of the ninth dis
trict from Frank Goodwin, who had the
support of Richard Croker. In the seventh
district James w. Boyle was defeated by
Richard Keahon. This contest was carried
on inside the organization, but Ii was gen.
orally understood that Mr.. Croker favored
Boyle.
In Brooklyn (Kings county, the regular
organizations won except in the sixteenth
assembly district, where the present re-
publican leader. Assistant Postmaster VIM.
j. Taylor. was beaten by Naval Officer
Robert Sharkey. Michael j. Dady retained

CROP CONDITIONS.
Reports Received From MARYLAND
DelAware and the HirRinias

Reports Resolved From MaryIand.
Delaware and the virginias.
The following statement of crop eondi-
tions are based upon reports from climate
and crop correspondents collected 1t state
section centers of the climate and crop
service Of the weather bureau:
Maryland and Delaware - Baltimore:
Heavy and general rains of much benefit
to all late crops, but not received in time
for early corn, tobacco and potatoes; some
local damage by wind and lightning; soil
softened and fall plowing resumed: pas
lures and gardens much improved; toma-
toes yielding light; peach shipments large;
apples still falling; housing of tobacco
continues.
Observation-Disclosures: Week warm: show.
ers have improved conditions locally. but
state at large still distressingly droughty:
corn cutting and fodder pulling under way
crop short; late tobacco ripening fast cut
tlng and housing continue, short Weld in
dlcated; pastures and gardens burned: lit
tie plowing done; special reports covering
apple crop indicate decided shortage in
yield.
West Vfrgfnia-Parkersburg: Dry. warm
weather, rather unfavorable for crops. but
good Tor fall blowing and thrashng; early
corn now about made and promises a fair
crop; late corn, gardens and pastures are
doing fairly well; reports indicate that an
pies are of inferior quality and continue to
fall, estimates range from one-tenth to
one-half crop; late peaches, pears erapes
and plums promise well.

THE ALABAMA'S SPEED.

Report Sent to the Navy Department
-KearsarGe Accepted.
The Navy Department has received an
official telegram confirming the press re-
ports of the successful speed trial Of the
Alabama. A dispatch to the department
from Admiral Rodgers said that the Ala
bama had made an average of seventeen
knots. This was supplemented by a mes:
sage from Chief Engineer Perry, saying:
Alabama easily made seventeen knots
without driving or mishap of any kind"
The easy manner In which the Alabama
exceeded her contract speed by a full knot
leads the department to believe that driven
at her full capacity, she might exceed her
trial speed by considerable fraction. 1t is
OF interest to note In this connection that
there was no speed premium paid on the
Alabama. SO that her builders probably felt
that 1t was useless to force her to the ut
most limit, at risk of a probable mishap
to the machinery. The Iowa which is the
only battle ship far that has exceeded
the speed Of the Alabama, made ia knots
but the speed premium paid on her by the
department amounted to $21742O
The Navy Department today finally ac-
cepted the battle ship Kearsarge which has
been In commission for two months This
will net the builders the sum of &AO OOO
heretofore held back in accordance with
law. pending the final acceptance Of the

TAKEN FROM CHINESE FLAG
Five Steamers Turned Over to NJ
American

rive steamers turned Over to an
American.
Mr.. Chamberlain, the commissioner of
navigat ation has received through the State
Department copies of bills of sale from the
China Merchants Steam Navigation Com
pany to Capt A E. knights, a citizen of
the United States living at Shanghai, of
five Chinese steamers. The price paid for
the five steamrs was 100000 taels,or about
1926 600.
Notwithstanding the fact that United
States Consul General Goodnow certifies
that the money was paid over In his pres
ence it seems probable in view of the off,
cials here that the transfer from the Chi
nese to the American flag was made for the
purpose of protecting the vessels against
their possible seizures and confiscations' In
case of war between China and the other
powers. During the trouble between China
and France in 1884 several of these sales
were recorded, but whether the vessels were
subsequently retransferred to their original
owners does not appear. The Chinese Mer-
chants Company Is said to be one of the
largest owners of steam vessels in China
Following are the names of the vessels
with their tonnage: Taishun, l 800; Toonan.

GOOD DAY FOR THE GOLFERS.
Misses Curtis and Terry FIRST Pair to
Get Started. =

SOUTHAMPTON, L. L. Atigust 29.-The
first day at match playsip women's open
golf championship was beeun--thiss morning
upon the links Of the. Shinnecock Hills Golf
Club under the most 9avorebie circum-
stances. The sun was warm and bright
while there was refreshing. breeze from
the ocean sweeping over the links. which
were in the best Of condition, all the put
ting greens and fair greens having been
cut shortly after daylight. The first pair to
get started was Miss Harriet Curtis of
Boston and Miss Eunice Terry, Ardsley.
After halving the first hole In g. Miss Terry
won the second and Miss Curtis the third.
The fourth was halved and then Miss Terry
won the next three holes In rapid success
sion, Miss Curtis hanging on the rim of the
cup for half at the seventh hole.
The match between Mrs. Pendleton Rog-
derhill, Nassau Country Club, was very
close and interesting for the first seven
holes. Mrs. Rogers was leading by one up
when they drove off for the eighth hole.
Miss Genieve Hecker, Wee. Burn Golf Club
of Noroton. Conn.,, and Miss F. E. Wick
ham, Shinnecock. Miss Hecker was three
up at the seventh hole. Miss Frances Girls
CON- Philadelphia, and Mrs. E. A. Man.
Ice, Lenox, were the fourth pair and at the
seventh hole Miss Griscom led by four up.
Miss Beatrix Hoyt, shinnecock, had her
clubmate, Miss c. c. Parrish, as an op-
penent, and at the seventh hole she had
the match well in hand, as she then led
by five up. The best Miss Parrish was able
to do was to halve two holes. Mrs. Caleb
F. Fox, Huntington Valley Country Club,
Philadelphia, who put Miss Hoyt out last
year in the first round, had Miss Caroline
Livingston, Westbrook, as. an opponent on
this occasion, and she found her no easy
person to beat. as she only led by two at
