Columbia Worsts Constitution in the Last
Race of the Series
INDEPENDENCE HAS VERY BAD LUCK
Broke Her Topmas Early in the Race but Plucky Remained
in the Race Until the Finish.
She Gained Too.
BY Associated Press:

BY Associated Press:
Newport, r. l., July 12.-The Con-
stitution. Columbia and independence
engaged today in race over a tri-
angular course to complete the series
of contests. The wind early in the
day was about 12 knots an hour and
everything promised a fine sailing
day. The start was in the following
order: Columbia, 11:11:O2, Independ-
ence 11:11:2O, Constitution 11:12:OO.
The independence broke her top
mast in less than minute after cross
ing the line. The topmast broke of
short at the head of the mast in a
heavy puff.
At 11:21 the Columbia was racing
along very fast and had lead of over
half mile over the Constitution.
At 11:40 after heading into the
wind to clear away the wreck of the
topsail, the Independence again
swung off and started after the other
boats.

Two Butte Men in the Tolls
Of the Law
AN INSANE WOMAN
Was Their Alleged Victim. The Land

Special Dispatch tc the Bee:

Special Dispatch tc the Bee:
Butte, July 11.-Dave Monahan and
c. A. Leonard were arrested today on
a charge Of criminal assault. The
case is peculiar. Several days ago
these men obtained from the state
board an order for the parole of Mrs
Epperson, an insane woman at the
Warm Springs asylum. One of them
it is said, representing himself to be
her husband. The men brought the
woman to Butte and engaged a room
at the Ogden house, which they
jointly occupied with Mrs. Epperson
until the suspicious of the landlady
were aroused and the matter was re.
ported to Detective Murphy. The
later, however, discovered nothing
wrong, but the landlady insisted on
having the room vacated and Mona
han and Leonard returned the woman
to the asylum. The county commits
sioners and County Attorney Breen
investigated the matter and warrants
were issued charging the men with an
unnatural crime

ing in from the country to which the
law applies relative, whereas for
merly "a personal friend" might ac-
company him. A person illegally i'm.
ported into Canada is to be sent
back, not, as heretofore, at the ex.
pense of the person previously con-
tracing for his service, but at the
expense of the person, partnership,
company or corporation violating any
of the provisions of the act It is a
violation for any person to assist or
encourage the. importation of any
foreigner from country to which the
act applies, by promise of employ
ment through advertisements pub
lished in that country. Exception is
made in the case of skilled workers
brought in to start industries and set
tiers brought in by government Off
GERS.
The Pacific cable bill simply means
that the cost to Canada has been in
creased from $s,5OO.OOO, to $1O,OO0,-
900; and that. on account of the action
of New SouthWales in making con-
cessions to the Eastern Extension
company, the Canadian bill will not
become law until the governor gener-
al has issued his proclamation.
Provision has also been made for
the establishment of branch of the
royal mint at Ottawa. The building
and equipment will cost over $500, 900,
and it will require $65,OO0 a year to
keep it running. The mint will
make all the gold, silver and copper
coins required in Canada and will
manufacture, in addition, British sov-
ereigns. There is likely to be an as
say office either at Dawson or Van
couver on the Pacific coast, so that
Canadian golu may be taken to Cana
da instead of the United States as at
present.
Some old time liberals view the
large expenditures of the Laurier gov.
ernment with alarm. A little over
$4O,OO0.000 in 1896, it has grown to
over $60,000,0O0 asked for in 1902.
Much of this expenditure is no doubt
due to the growth of the country,
but some of it is not. AS long as the
revenue keeps growing there will be
no serious political disturbances, but
should it commence to go down sud.
denly the political barometer of the
liberal party will go with it.
