Old Shamrock Leads New Yacht
5 Minutes in 2O-MiIe Race.

Weymouth May 13-The weather con-
ditions all favorable for a fair trial
with the wind fresh and steady, the
course clear Of all Instructions and no
tides Of any consequence, the Shamrock
I today beat Sir Thomas Liptons new
boat by five minutes and five seconds
over a triangular course of about tWen-
ty miles. The only possible disadvan-
tage to the challenger was in the fact
that she used her old mainsail, which sits
worse since its salt water bath of Thurs
day.
There was no discoverable holding
back Of the challenger although once or
twice she pointed such a course as left
the suspicion that the steersman was not
taking advantage of every chance
There is no doubt the result of to-
days trial was distinctly disappointing
to those who had pinned their faith to
the new challenger. especially as the
Shamrock 1 on the previous spins had
not showed even equality with the new
racer on any point of sailing, with the
exception of running. The first leg or
the course was from the Portland
breakwater to the Shambles lghtship,
the second to White Nose Point and
thence to the point of starting. The old
Shamrock had a length the best OF the
start and held her advantage so Well
that the challenger was unable to head
her, and the Shambles lightship was
rounded by the Shamrock forty-fVe
seconds ahead of the Shamrock II. The
run to White Nose point was dead to
windward. Captain Wringle was able
for over half the course to keep the
Shamrock [ on the weather bow of the
new boat and held all his advantage at
the rounding of the second mark. As the
yachts squared away for the home run
the Shamrock led by about minute
Down the wind the two yachts sailed
with jib top sails set, the old boat adding
to her lead throughout the six miles and
crossing the finish line five minutes be-
fore the 1901 challenger.

last night, and it is reported that one
passenger was drowned. that eight or
nine of the crew are missing and that
the boat will be a total loss. The
steamer City of Clifton, of the same
line, passed up shortly after the acci-
dent and took on board the crew and
passengers, who made the above re-
port.
Captain Massengale, agent of the
packet line here, is In receipt of a dis
patch from the clerk of the City of
Paducah. but it simply notes the sink
ing of the boat without giving any de-
tails. Captain Aassengale states that
the City of Paducah had very few pas
sengers and was lightly loaded as to
freight
The latest advices received by Cap
tain MaSsengale to 11-30 today are that
were drowned by the sinking of the
City of Paducah, but they make no
mention of any of the crew being lost
or missing. There We're only fifteen
cabin passengers on the boat Wnen Sne
left here and four "deckers'
A dispatch from Captain Mccoy, of
the steamer City Of Clifton, which took
on board the passengers rescued from
the wrecked steamer at Chester, is
quoted as saying that twelve negro
deck hands are missing, but it is
thought they may have wandered away
in the woods and not turned up yet
The boat was valued at $4,000, and
fully in sured.

ENTERTAINED IN LONDON.
American Millionaires Will Be Given
Royal Reception.

New York. May 1S.-A dispatch to the
Herald from London says:
The banquet to be given by the Lon
don chamber of commerce to the New
York cham Der. on June 5, will mark the
friendly union of the principal men Of
commerce in England and America.
1t is an endeavor to cement the
friendship which has long existed be-
tween the two countries.
Most of the greatest commercial
house in England will be represented.
while from America come some twenty
five millionaires, headed by Mr.. J. Pier
pont Morgan and Mr.. Morris K. Jesup,
the president of the New York chamber
of commerce.
The entertainment of the American
visitors, of which the banquet at Gro
GERS hall is the most prominent feature,
promises to be on a. scale hitherto quite
unsurpassed. There will be a reception
by the lord mayor in the Egyptian hall
of the Mansion house on Friday, while
Lord Brassey and others viii give gar
den parties.
The details of two other important
functions have yet to be decided upon.
Altogether this festival of commerce
According to Mr.. Kenric B. Murray,
the secretary of the London chamber,
the kindliest feelings have prevailed
between the two chambers of commerce
for many years, and al the time of the

feelings ran high, cables We're ex-
changed between New York and Lon

behind Mrs. Mckinley was gently
placed in the carriage, and the presi-

party followed in carriages. Mr.. and

guests Mrs. Mckinley was again lifted
out of the carriage and placed in an
invalid chair and carried into the house
Secretary Cortelyou. when questioned
concerning Mrs Mckinley's condition,
stated that there was nothing alarming
in her present indisposition, and that
perfect quiet and rest for a few days
would restore her to her usual health.
1t was the impression, however. of
those who saw Mrs. Mckinley that she
is very i'll and that her present state
may result in an entire change OF the
presidents programme.
Should his Wlfe'S health improve the
president win carry out his intention to
attend the celebration at San Jose. If,
however. her condition is no better to-
day, the president viii not leave his
wife's side, but will allow the cabinet
officers and others Of his party to repre-
sent him at San Jose.

Kinley's illness cast a shadow upon the
other members of the party who re-

OF abandoning the entire schedule be-
tween here and San Francisco. but Mrs.
Mckinley especially requested that the
plans of the party should not be dis
arranged by her departure, and when
the president left the understanding
was that the programme as originally

else. Nearly all the stock Morgan &
