 in San Francisco.


 San Francisco. Oct. 2.-The triennial convention of the Episcopal church of America was formally organized to-day by the election of Bishop Dudley Of Kentucky as president and Rev. 5. Hart of Kansas city secretary of the house of bishops: Dr. John s. Lind say of Massachusetts, chairman, and Rev. Charles Hutchins, secretary of the house Of deputies.
 No other business of importance was transacted during the business session of the convention, which did not as- semble until late in the afternoon. Thousands of people had assembled to see the procession and squad of po- licemen was required to prevent any encroachment on the route. About seventy-five bishops participated.
 The services, marking the opening of the convention were simple, but inn posing. The holy communion was cele- brated, Bishop Futile of Missouri being the celebrant The Epistle was read by Bishop Doane of Albany, N. Y., and the gospel by the lord bishop of Newcastle. The sermon was delivered by Bishop Mister Morris of Oregon.
 The official offertory was read by Bishop Nichols of California.
 It was nearly 4 o'clock when Rev. Dr. Hutchins, secretary of the last house, called the convention to order and called the roll. The result showed very large attendance of both clergy and laity. The secretary announced that a majority of the dioceses were represented In neat speech Rev Dr. Hunting declined the nomination for president and then many delegates ral- lied to the support of Rev. Dr. Lind say, whose election followed by the fol- lowing vote: The whole number of votes cast $50, of which Rev pr. Lind- say had 234. The secretary declared Rev, pr. Lindsay president of the house of deputies A resolution was submit ted by Dr. Huntington to make the re- port on the new constitution the first order of business.

NOT TO LIGHTEN THE SHAMROCK.
Designer Watson Changes His Mind
 About Taking Out Ballast.

New York, Oct 2.-Designer George IL. Watson of the Shamrock II to-day sent a request to the New York Yacht club for a remeasurement of the boat because of his intention to take out ballast before to-morrows race. Later, however he withdrew the request, probably owing to the promise of heavy weather This, however, will not prevent Mr. Watson taking out ballast at any time he may wish, which of course the club is willing to have done at any time. If, however, after to-morrow's race MT. Watson de- elines to take out ballast it is probable that there will be no race on Friday for under the new arrangement either yacht is at liberty to decline to race on the next day. This will be seen from the agreement which was drawn up and signed this afternoon.
 Whether the plan of removing ballast from the challenger was made with view of decreasing the stiffness of the boat or cutting the water line--a mat ter of a few inches-so as to gain in time allowance, could not be ascertain ed. MT. Watson came up to the club about o'clock, but found none of the officials in the building. He admitted that he proposed to take out ballast from the Shamrock. but refused to make any other statement regarding the matter. Under her present meas urement the Shamrock allows the Co., Iumbia forty three seconds in thirty mile race. Much of this allowance was due to her great sail plan, for her wa terline measurement is already some inches shorter than the Columbia's. It will be necessary for MT. Watson to decrease the Shamrock's water line length by foot in order to gain fifteen seconds in time allowance, and although the overhang of the challenger, both fore and aft, is very long, it is thought that considerable ballast will have to be taken out in order to make a gain of ever five or six seconds. Still, with races in which neither boat seems to have the advantage of more than minute or two the matter of five sec- onds might become very important
 Measurer Hyslop was sent for late in the afternoon and at o'clock was at the club house ready for any notifica- tion on the part of the Shamrock peo- ple for remeasurement After lit tie telephoning MT. Watson finally de- cided not to make any alterations in the trim of the new boat, at least not until after to-morrows race.

caya, all three of which were engaged, but just as soon as the enemy stood to the westward put helm to port swing Ga little interlineation here) 'clear of the fire of the Texas so as to bring the starboard battery to bear and stood parallel to the enemy" The witness then stated that the original entry in the log had made it appear that the helm was put to star board instead of to port, as it appears in the permanent log. The change, he said, had been made on the 9th Of
 July, two days after the action Asked why he changed 1t, MT Doyle said:
 q changed it after had discussion with Sharp. had been under the inn pression, as I have stated, that we had turned with a starboard helm. Sharp was aboard the Brooklyn on July 5, to luncheon with us and I had discuss
 sion with him that day on that sub- ject. I think that is the time I
 changed it'
 'Do you know whether the navigator had then signed the log as correct?" q do not. sir"
 "Why were not the interlined words
 put in?"
 "They were put in, think; in fact know, at the suggestion of come per son, probably the navigator. They were put in evidently after the log was writ ten up, because they are interlined" About how was the ship heading at that time-within the quadrant of circle southwest to westward, north ward to eastWard?"
 We were headed, at the beginning of the battle, inshore; that is to say, the head of our ship was probably about
 north. and as soon as the Spanish ships
 came out and I got on top of the port turret the ship was then moving ahead
 and turning with port helm, because
 the Spanish ships were a little on our
 starboard bow, but we were manning
 the port battery into action. Now, then,
 we must have continued around there,
 as know now, but when I was in the
 starboard turret we lost sight of the
 ships, because they were on our port
 bow"
 "The effect then, of putting the helm aport emitting the interlined words, in order to bring the starboard battery to
 bear, would be to send the vessel through more than 1S0 degrees, would it
 not, in turning?"
 Certainly, yes. We were headed about northeast, and that would mean
 more than 180 degrees" '"The cheaper way would have been (Continued on Sixth Page.)

 Signed: :,
 For the New York Yacht club,
 Lewis Cass Ledyard
 For the Royal Ulster Yacht club, R. G. sharman-Crawford, Vice Com
 nlodore.
 The proposition for a race on consec- 11tiye days came from Sir Thomas Lip ton. and as E. D. Morgan at once agreed two representatives of the Roy al Ulster Yacht club went up to the New York Yacht club this forenoon and had conference with Commodore Ledyard. At that time there was no other member of the challenge com mittee present but telephone messages were sent around and the meeting ad- iourned to Commodore Ledyard's office in Wall street. Here the Lipton repre- sentatives met Secretary Oddie of the
 
 M. Brown and the matter was thor oughly discussed. The agreement of two years ago was gone over and a similar one finally drawn and signed late in the afternoon. In the case of the agreement two years ago the man agers of the yachts waited until near ly half dozen attempts had been made to sail the race between the Co., 1umbia and the old Shamrock before steps were taken to have the yachts race every day. In the present case, however, one race has been completed and there has been two postponements. Under the rules it was necessary for the challenge committee of the clubs to make this agreement, neither Sir Thomas Lipton or E. D. Morgan being parties to it. although it was made at the suggestion of the former.
