selby Smelling Company Gets Back
About S2OO.qO
San Francisco, Aug. 14-1t was stated
at the Office Of the Selby Smelling
company yesterday that a force of
divers under the management of a de-
tective agency had yesterday taken
$685. 900 worth of gold from the spot
where it was hidden by Winters, MAX
ing nearly $4,000 already recovered.
It is expected hat the remainder of
the stolen treasure, $50, 600. will be re-
covered inside Of twenty-four hours.
Winters is still detained by the off-
GERS in this city, but has not been
formally charged with the crime. The
fact that he has not been charged with
any crime lends additional weight to
the belief entertained in some quarters
that he will be %leniently dealt with by
the officers of the law for confessing
the crime and locating the spot where
he secreted the bullion.

Constitution Loses Race ON Time
Allowance. s
Newport. Aug. 14.-The Constitution
covered thetriangular course Of thirty
miles yesterday in thirty-three seconds
less time than the Columbia. The
champion Of '99, however, wins the race
on time allowance by about thirty sec
onds. No corrected time can be given
as the boats have not yet been re-
measured as requested. In previous
races the Constitution had allowed the
Columbia one minute and seventeen
seconds. What change in measurement
the new rig of the Constitution has
made is not known, but 1t is estimated
that she now allows the old boat only
q few seconds less time II any.
