| tain Sycamore kept the yacht going down the Jersey coast.
 She was on the port tack carrying
 the same sails off Seabright at 3:07,
 when she was put about, and a series
 of sail drills began. Several men climb ed out on the bowsprit, while twelve
 manned the balloon jib topsail halyards.
 The small jib topsail came down and
 was slowed on the bowsprit in about forty seconds. The next moment the | ballooner in stops was being passed out and snapped onto the stay, so that in | less than four minutes after the orders
 were given the great sail was set and it's sheet trimmed down.
 | At 3.25 the staysail and jib were talk en in to allow the balooner to draw and
 at the same time the yacht was kept off for home. At 3:50 Captain Sycamore gybed her to sta.rboard and the balloon

 spirit. In few moments larger bal looner was sent up in steps and broken out. It was beauty. Suddenly six teen men grabbed the after end of the spinnaker boom and ran forward with
 it, while others lloisted the sail up to the masthead from the fore hatch. In just three and one-half minutes from the time the order was given the beau tiful linen sail was set. MT, Jameson ordered it down after 1t had been set ten minutes, and the yacht was then hauled closer to the wind and headed for Gedney's Channel She made good time from there to her mooring in San- dy Hook bay, where at 5:30 she made fast for the night.
 Sir Thomas Lipton said upon his re- turn: Tt was very satisfactory days work, considering that we started so late. We were cordially entertained at Newport yesterday by the New York Yacht club members at Commodore Ledyard's house. Much as I should have liked to see more of Newport-for it is very pretty place. was unable to do so at this time. don't think ever saw such fine fleet of steam yachts as those that came out to see the Constitution and the Columbia race''
 When asked what he thought of the race Sir Thomas said: We rather ex- pected to see the Columbia win. The breeze was light, but think the Sham rock would have done very well under these conditions. The Shamrock will go out again tomorrow about il o'clock in charge of MT. Jameson"
 MT. Ratsey, who saw the two Ameri- can boats sail off Newport, seemed quite pleased with the result. He is satisfied that the Columbia is the best boat of the two, and said: Our boat is ready to race tomorrow if she had to-"

THE STEEL STRIKE.
Decided Gains shown for the Manu-
 faCfurers,

Pittsburg, Sept. 3.-Developments to- day in the steel strike show decided gains for the manufacturers. The Amal- gamated officials, however, make the claim that everything is progressing satisfactorily and say that much of the supposed advantage of the manu- facturers Is bluff and cannot be made good.
 Mayor Black issued a proclamation tonight to "The Workingmen of Me- Keesport" He says: The eyes of the country are on McKeesport. I have maintained all along that there would be no disorder and still have confidence in the workingmen. Use no undue zeal in keeping men out of the Demmler for I have heard it would be started this week. The venal eastern press has exaggerated and distorted every trif1ing disturbance here into riot and injured the town. Any violence would be the signal for the application of the infa- nous principle of government by in junction and would divorce the support of loyal laboring men outside of the association. Violence never won a strike. No right can be gained by law breaking. I feel no un- easiness, but issue this proclamation to keep you cool headed. Use all caution possible to preserve order that the hot headed element if there be one, may be easily controlled.

FINE SPIN OF THE SHAMROCK.
Again Shows Her Abilities Under Vari-
 ous Conditions.

l New York, Sept. 3.-With her owner, designer, builder, manager and sail maker on board the yacht Shamrock IT.. sailed her seventh trial race to-day off Sandy Hook. There was light breeze | of sufficient strength to give very sat- isfactory estimate of her speed in light weather.
 Although at times there was not more than a three-knot air, at no time did the yacht act sluggishly. She slipped through the water at an amazingly good rate of speed under the influence of her great mainsail and light sails. The water was smooth, but even when pressed to a speed of nine knots tie yacht made a very small wave at the bow and left an absolutely clean wake. Her crew showed commendable alert ness in setting and shortening sail.
 Sir Thomas Lipton and his party on the yacht Erin did not arrive at Sandy Hook until 11:15 this morning. Cap- tain Matthews brought her back out side the island and had good weather and smooth water all the way.
 The crew of the Shamrock early in the morning began bending another mainsail, used in the yachts trials on the Clyde and which Sir Thomas de- cared was a better one than that used here for the past week. The sail was bent and hoisted by 12:30 o'clock. It is unauestionably a finely made and ex- celent setting piece of duck.
 Soon after the mainsail was set big club tcnsail was mast-headed and after lunch Sir Thomas Lipton, Mir. and Mrs. w. G. Jameson, MT. Watson, MT. Dem ny, MT. Ratsey and Commodore Hil- yard, of the Royal Clyde Yacht club, boarded the Shamrock At 3 D. m. the yacht slipped her moorings and filled away on the starboard tack in light breeze from the east and northeast. A medium sized jib topsail was carried over the jib and staysail.
 Trimming sheets down flat after pass ing the point of the Hook, the Sham rock stepped off at an eight-knot clip at once, working her way out to sea with fair tide under her lee. Three Jacks brought her to the entrance of Gedney's Channel. It took her only nine minutes to sail one and one-eighth miles. After clearing the channel Cap

 These mysteriou messages have aroused certain amount of curiosity but the plea of illness is not taken too seriously.

CONSTITUTION IS DIsAPP0INTINe


Newport, R. l., Sept. 3.-The cup challenge committee of the New York Yacht club decided not to send the Con- stitution and the Columbia out to race to-day as has been originally intended. There were two excellent reasons for this, the first being the probability another day without any wind and the second that Butler Duncan wished to overhaul the Constitution thoroughly before she went to the line again.
 So surprised are all connected with the Constitution at the unsatisfactory showing she has made since she was hauled out for cleaning at Bristol, htat a diyerewas >S ~ed-tc7 day to examine

It was a continued ovation from beginning to end His first ap- pearance to-day was the Fourth Ward wigwam, where he spoke to the men who wear the buttons" His audience was not large, only limited number of cards having been issued. He spoke only briefly and took his text largely from the lessons furnished by the cour- age, fortitude and patriotism of the men before him in the hour of the na- tion's peril, at times, however, falling into "reminiscences of his own brief but eventful experience in war. He was frequently interrupted by applause. A reception was rendered the vice presi- dent this afternoon by the Minneapolis Commercial club. He left for Chicago at 6:25 D. m
