stacking. No damage Is expected to re-
suit from the rain, however. One Of
the most satisfactory changes has
been the cessation OF the almost un-
bearable heat which has driven the
harvesters out OF the field In the day
time and compelled them TO work
nights.
The potato and small vegetable crops
have suffered disa~ strously.

COLUMBIA WINS A RACE.
to the Constitution Cause of Her
Defeat.

New Port. r. l., July 27.-The Column

the latter finishing a good third or q
mile astern Of her antagonist and be-
ing defeated Q minutes and s seconds.
The victory was surprising. for n
race was sailed in weather that, as a
rule. has just suited the Constitution,
the wind never exceeding twelve knots,
and the sea being comparatively
smooth. 1t was not until Newport was
reached that an intelligent explanation
Of the result could be given. The Con-
stttution. following in the right in the
wake of the Columbia, struck twice on
a ledge near the Race Rock lighthouse.
The was q substantial bump on each
occasion, and after the accident the
Constitution behaved like a lame duck.
AN her old-time smartness was lack
ing. Her speed was diminished and she
sagged off to eeward. Mr.. Duncan,
who is In command, said last evening
tina he believed some OF the plates on
the leaden keel were OF by
the force of the impact on the nara
rock, and that these plates from the

usual racing form. A diver was sent
down shortly after the Constitution
was moored but he was unable to make
a satisfactory examination, and MT.
Duncan decided not to race the boat
further until she has been hauled out
and opportunity given for q, thorough
investigation.
The Columbia had the best or the
start. but had 1t not been for another
streak of i'll fortune the Constitution
would nave crossed the line first.
After passing Race Rock the Consti-
tuition showed an inability 10 point or
sail fast which was very astonishing
to those who have watched her from
the launching down to date. The Co
lumbia, beautifully handled In the dead
"nose-ender" from Race Rock to Beck
on's Reef lightship, got the Constitu-
ton under her lee n kept her there
to the finish. About fifty tacks were
made between Race Rock n Beck

tuition ~blanketed.

schley's Son Says His Father Has STARTLING
Facts In Reserve.
Salt Lake City. Utah, July So.-The
Herald today says:
Captain Thomas f. Schley, eldest
son OF Admiral Winfield 8. Schley, who
is stationed at Fort Douglas. in this
city, yesterday outlined some points
that will be- brought out in the court OF
Inquiry as to his farher's at
the battle OF Santiago.
He declared that some startling facts
will be brought TO light IL the whole
truth shall become known, and that the
regulations OF persons other than his
father are likely to suffer.
Il have just written to my father"
said Captain Schley, that / thought
he ought to spare nobody and that he
should withhold none OF the facts In
his possession about Admiral Sampson
or anybody else.
When the court OF inquiry meets I
would like TO have the privilege of ask
Ing Admiral Sampson just one ques-
ton: IF the battle Of Santiago a re-
suited In defeat, to whom would the
blame be attached?' This, i think. tells
the situation in a nutshell. If Admiral
Schley a lost the battle he would
have been blamed. He won II, and
he should have the credit.
THE accusations that are made are
Wnen they are lnNcSLbdleu
Take, for example, the charge OF DISC
bedience OF orders In May, 1898. An at
tempt has been made to saddle the re-
sponsibility on my father. The fact IS
that he has a letter from Admiral
Sampson telling him to DO exactly what
he did, and his letter will be produced
at the inquiry. At that time he was
maintaining the blockade off Cienfue-
Cos. Secretary Long wired Admiral
Sampson, strongly advising that the
bIockading fleet go to Santiago, In the
hope Of finding the Spanish fleet there.
admiral. Sampson sent the dispatch
TO Admiral Schley with a note In which
he said: After duly considering this
telegram / have decided to make no
change In the present plans; that Is,
thnt you should hold your squadron of
Cienfuegos.'
This letter was suppressed"
Regarding the OF tho
Brooklyn at the time OF the battle,
Captain Schley says the facts go to
show that this was the best move un-
der the circumstances.
IF this inquiry Is full and fair" de-
clared Captain Schley, some facts will
be disclosed hat will startle the public.
My father has several strong cards up
his sleeve, n l trust he will make use
of them ALL"

M'LAURIN ASKED TO RESIGN.
south Carolina Executive Committee Ex-
peIs Him From Democratic Party.

P
Columbus, s. c., July 30.-A tremend-
II surprise was created here by the
state executive committee that had
been called to meet to consider purely
routine matters, and nothing sensa-
tional was expected. BY a vote OF 25
to D Senator McLaurin was bodily fired
out of the democratic party.
Senator Tillman led the fight, making
a violent attack on McLaurin's course.
The senator spent the day with State
Chairman Jones. Both Jones and Till
mar said there was nothing doing"
Resolutions were adopted %censuring
McLaurin in strong language for his
course in Washington. His voting
with the republicans was vehemently
denounced.
Senator Tillman made one Of his bit
terest speeches. Just two months ago
Tillman said he would oppose any eff
fort to rule McLaurin out OF the party.
but he seems to have changed his mind.
Following Is the resolution adopted by
the committee:
whereas, John II. McLaurin. elected
in the national congress-, has, by his
utilization and votes in that body, ig-
nored the national democratic platform
and thereby misrepresented his state
and his constituency who elected him;
therefore, be 1t resolved, that 1t is the
sense and conviction of the democratic
state executive committee that Senator
John McLaurin, from h standpoint
of honesty and self-respect, should
tender his resignation"
