THE CONSTITUTION AGAIN.
Defeats the Columbia in Fair
Test Race by a Small Margin.
The Breeze Was Fair and the Old
Defender Was BETTER Handled
Than the New Boat. But the Latter
Proved Faster ut Every Point.

NEW YORK, Aug. T.-Fifty-eight sec
onds. corrected time was the difference
between the Constitution and Columbia in
the race sailed today off Larchmont. The
course was triangular, the same as that
sailed on Friday, and it was twice gone
over, making thirty miles in all. The
wind at the start was blowing about
eight knots an hour, and it increased to
twelve during the race. but when the
second leg was sailed it backed so that
the yachts were able to fetch the wealth
err mark with only few bitches out to
windward, and the race was consequently
sailed In very quick time
The sea was smooth, and it was
ideal day for the Constitution, according
to the way she has sailed in her earlier
races. The Constitution gained on every
leg of the course. and at the finish cross
ed the line two minutes and eighteen sec
onds ahead of the Columbia The actual
distance between the two boats was
about third of a mile.
The Constitution had more than loo
feet more sail than the Columbia. and
had to allow minute 20 seconds to the
older boat, and so on corrected time the
new boat won the race by IS seconds.
The race was fair test of the two
start it was confidently expected by ev-
eryone that the Constitution would beat
the Columbia badly. The boats were
handled equally well. Captain Barr sot
the better of the start, but the Constitu-
ton was able to pull out from under the
lee of the Columbia before the first leg
was half covered. and then gradually
drew ahead. Captain Barr kept the Co
lumbia going for all she was worth. No
time was wasted ON that boat and not u
mistake was made.
On the second leg, when the wind shift
ed the Constitution being the leading
boat got it first and some figured that
she made a slight gain by the change.
but the Columbia did not lose much The
Columbia's men were the smarter in
changing sails and trimming sheets, and
it was largely due to their experiences
that the Constitution not farther
ahead when the finishing line was Cross
ed
The Constitutions time for the thirty
miles was hours minutes and IA sec
onds, which is ut the average rate of d
fraction under ten knots an hour.

POLICE TAKE A HAND.
A Wife Beaten Arrested and Lodged
in r Cell.

Michael Sullivan, by occupation an en-
gineer, is a prisoner at the Second precinct
stationhouse, charged with having beaten
his wife. There appears to BE- another
woman in the case. who is at present pay
ing the penalty of other wrong doings by
a temporary sojourn under the hospitabIe
care of the workhouse. The Sullivans
dwell in discord in a house known to the
police as "Uhls Shack" near Ninth and
NJ Streets northwest. The other woman
is nelghbor. living under the same roof.
The other woman tells tales concerning
Mrs. Sullivan to her spouse. Lately the
other neighbors have been telling Mrs
Sullivan that the engineer needs looking
other woman. The other woman has be-
come another bone of contention. and har-
mony has lately ceased entirely in the
Sullivan domestic circle
Last night the discord was vibrant, and
the police called at "Uhrs Shack to in
vestigate the cause of the high words.
They found the pair discussing their mu-
tual infelicities. The engineer declared
that the lady had been drinking The po-
lice declined to interfere in so delicate a
matter. and left the house. They had not
gone more than half a block before the
sound of loud knock. followed by shrill
protests, announced that Sullivan was
beating his wife in his most approved
much contempt for wife heaters decided
that 1t was time to interfere, and took a
delight in arresting Michael, who spent
the night in a cell.
Sullivan is thirty-three years old and is

tain Lemly, the Judge Advocate General
of the Navy and the Judge Advocate of
the Court of Enquiry. He is at present
in Canada on his vacation and will not
be home until week from tomorrow.
The Navy Department makes the dis
tinction that the Schley case is now in
the hands of the court, or rather in the
hands of the judge advocate of the
court, and was placed there as soon as
the precept was executed and the court
appointed, instead of being, strictly
speaking, in the hands Of the Navy De-
partment. Hence the matter of furnish
ing the list of witnesses devolves upon
Captain Lemly as judge advocate of the.
court. There is little or no doubt but
that upon his return to Washington he
will furnish Admiral Schley with list
of the witnesses so far as they have been
decided upon. This will not necessarily
mean that no one else will be summoned.
for at any time during the progress of the
hearing 1t will be permissible to call ad-
ditional witnesses. Admiral Schley will
also have this privilege.
In some States the practice Is followed
of furnishing the person accused of high
crime with q list of witnesses which the
Government will call to testify. This Gus
tom is, however. not followed as matter
of regulation in the Navy Department. al
though the officer or enlisted man against
whom charges have been made is entitled.
If he requests it, to know who makes the
accusations against him 1t is also fire.
quently the practice to forward with the
precept to the person accused list of
those who make the charges This was
not done in the Schley case, for the rea-
son that there are a large number of wit
nesses and a great variety of subjects
upon which testimony will be adduced
and 1t was not known at the time the pre-
cepI was sent to Admiral Schley, just who
TIE witnesses would be.
Though Admiral Schleys attorneys are
anxious to know the names of the officers
upon the official list, they will probably
await the return of Captain Lemly and
see what action he takes in supplying ii
to them. If 1t is not then forthcoming,
they will probably make request for the
names OF those officers summoned to tes-
fify

GRAPE=NUTS.
Ready Cooked.
Delicious and Nourishing.
FOR CAMPING.

People going into camp should not for
get to take along a goodly supply of
Cirape-Nuts the ready-cooked food. This
can be eaten dry and does not require any
preparation by the cook. or the food
can be made into a variety of delightful
dishes, such as buildings, etc.
One of the favorite methods by old
timers is to drop three or four heaping
teaspconfuls OF Grape-Nuts into a cup
of coffee. The Grape-Nuts add peculiar
and delicious flavor TO the coffee and give
one a more piquant article of food than
even the famous doughnuts and coffee Of
old New England.
People who cannot digest coffee should
not forget that Postum Food Coffee. IL

beverage. either hot or cold closely app

licious grades of Java.

This feature of the Bridge was made more

Happily. he sustained no serious injury.

From present indications the Danish
West India islands viii come into the
possession Of the United States. Prob
ably a mistake was made by this
country when the scheme for the pur-
chase of those islands failed a third
of a century ago This time they viii
undoubtedly come into our possession.
and they viii be worth more to us
than they would have been then.
Some OF the British islands in the
same quarter of the world are likely
to come under the stars and stripes
by purchase. and with the consent OF
their inhabitants, before many more
years pass. There is a very earnest
desire among many of the peoples Of
the islands adjacent to the United
States to get annexed to this country,
and as annexation would be likely to
benefit US as well as them the chances
are taat their aspirations will be
graft ed.

AFRAID OF THE UNITED STATES

Senator Depew Of New York and
former Senator washburn OF Mime
sofa say after returning from Europe
that the nations Of the old world fear
the trade competition of the United
States. They are striving to secure
as much trade for themselves as pos
sible. and they recognize that the
United States possess an advantage
which may give it the upper hand in
all competition.
They have reason to,fear the Amer
leans in such a contest. whatever
they may think Of the military and
naval strer his country; and If 1t
were - of them would
enter into nation 70 head of
the United States and exclude it from
markets which they control. 1t Is Inn
probable. however. that they win find
it practicable to organize a movement
OF that kind. Most of them care too
much about the American market or
need too large a quantity OF American
food supplies.
Any contest which may provoke
bitterness is to be avoided if possible.
and consequently the outlook for a
fierce struggle for trade. between
the United States and the lead
ing continental nations OF Europe
Is not pleasing. II greatly pro
longef it might develop a feeling
Of antagonlsm which would not be
easily distinguished from hostility.
The American people want no war.
and It is their hope that trade rela-
lions win be maintained in ways that
viii tend to preserve rather than to
disturb peace and friendship between
this country and al the remainder
OF the world.

running over it to the wharyes have so
cut it up that in wet weather it is in

crumhled under the heavy wheels of vehi-
