Nashville, Tenn, July 20-Seven
revenue officers were ambushed early
today, supposedly by moonshiners,
about six miles from Montclay, in
Putnam county. One man was kill
ed and one badly wounded. A posse
of six, led by Deputy Collector Bell
was creeping along a steep hillside,
above an illicit still when they re-
ceived orders to throw up their hands.
They had barely located the speaker,
40 feet below them, when a deadly
volley from eight guns was poured

day. No rain fell anywhere in the
state today. Grainmen place the
damage to the corn crop THIS far at
80 per cent and say that each contin-

the damage. The Plat river is very
low and in places entirely dry and
fish have taken refuge in the shallow
pools where they are scooped out
with ordinary shovels. The state fish
commissioner will start out with the
many fish as is possible to other

Price was instantly killed and Posse
man G. Mackey was badly wounded.
The officers returned the fire but the
m%oonshiners made the place SO hot
that Collector Bell and the survivors
retired, carrying Mackey with them.
One moonshiner was heard moaning
and calling to his friends that he was
MORALLY wounded. Collector Bell
has organized another posse and
started out to recover the body Of

REGATTA MARKED SUCCESS
Winnipeg Crew Capture Two
Events on First Days Pro-
gramme.

ulClOAS IAdI COuIu AOI US AmPIOVcu
upon the first days racing of the
Twenty-ninth annual regatta of the
National Association Of Amateur oars
men was held in the Schuylkill river
this afternoon and the initial days
sport was in every way a success.
Fine weather, a smooth course and
probably the largest crowd that has
ever witnessed the first days events
of the National regatta here were the
inspiring cause Of a good days rae
ing. All the crews seemed to be in
fine condition and several of the
events were not won until the flag
fell. Winnipeg carried off the honors,
Worcester, Toronto, Philadelphia, De-
troit and New York each won one
race. The race of the day was be-
tween Detroit and Vesper of Philadel-
phia, in the senior paired oar event,
in which the latter won by a nose,
and the surprise of the afternoon was
the defeat of the Vesper senior four,
composed of members of the worlds
champion crew, by the St. Louis four.
Another fine contest was the final
in the intermediate Fights which was
captured by the husky crew from
Winnipeg. Ten Eyeck and Lewis had
no trouble in the senior doubles.
Philadelphia, July 2O-The worlds
champion eight cared shell crew of
this city, which has carried the colors
of it's club to many a victory, went
down to defeat today before the
strong Argonaut crew Of Toronto,
Canada, in the last day of the annual
regatta of the National Association
of Amateur oarsmen. Not only was
this crew whipped by the Canadians
but the eight men of the Winnipeg
rowing club also flashed past the
champions and beat them out at the
finish. 1t was the first defeat for the
Vesper eight since the crew was got
ten together.
Their Waterloo did come as a sur
prise to the experts that have follow
ed their work during this season and
many were the predictions that in
the Canucks from Toronto and Winni-
peg they would meet their match.
With the exception of the two men
the Vesper crew was the same as
that which wrested the victory from
the worlds oarsmen at Paris last
year. The Argonauts' time for the
mile and a half was 7:49, just 10 Sec
onds slower than the time made by
the Vespers yer the same couse in
a race last year. Winnipeg's time was
1884 AMI the Vesper's 1855.
Between 10000 and $4,000 people
saw the races. The weather was
beautiful and the course was as
smooth as the %proverbial mill pond.
The high banks of the Schuylkill riv-
er were lined with enthusiastic
crowds and thousands braved the
danger of the railroad bridge at the
finish line and swarmed all over the
structure The regatta was a success
in every way
The final contest TO rthe champion
ship of the United States in the sin
