SIR THOMAS GENEROUS OFFER.
Refuses a $4,000 Charter, but Of

FOrecasting Defeat.

New York, March 4.-C. w. Post,
who offered to charter Shamrock II.
in order to race her against the CO.
lumbia, the Shamrock to have an
American and the Columbia an En-
glish crew, has received the follow
ing letter from Sir Thomas Upton:
London, E. c., Feb. IS, 1902.
C. w. Post, Esq, Washington, d. c.,
U. S. A.;
My Dear Sir-I have to aclSnowl-
edge receipt of your letter of the 31st
ult., conveying your offer to charter
Shamrock H., for $4,000, during the
coming season, and to give pre-
sentation cup for competition by
Shamrock II. and the Columbia,
Shamrock II. to be manned by an
American skipper and crew, and the
Columbia to be manned by British
shipper and crew, provided by my
self. In the first place, 1 do not
know whether or not Columbia win
be in commission this season, but if
so, it would, in my opinion be far
better test to race Shamrock II.
against the Columbia with the latter
vessels own skipper and crew of
Americans; and if you wish to do
this, will not accept charter Of
Shamrock II. as you kindly offer;
but / will let you have the use of
her during the coming season with
out charge, on the condition that you
fit her out in racing trim and pay
all expenses for the racing season.
81 do not wish to discourage you,
but l feel certain that the Colum-
bia would lick you.
81 am yours, faithfully,
'THOMAS j. Upton"
Mr.. Post said that to race both
boats with American crews would
not decide whether American or Brit
ish yachtsmen were superior. He
maintained, he said, that an Ameri-
can crew could get better results out
of the Shamrock and that a British
crew would get less speed from the
Columbia.
He believed that under these condi-
tions the Shamrock would win. He
said he would send representative
to London to complete arrangements
with Sir Thomas Upton.

In the forged interlineation in
bill passed by the last Legislature, by
which forgery the "Wineman heirs"
of Chicago were the gamers largely,
the investigating committee spent
much time and summoned many wit
nesses in their endeavor to get at all
the facts in this outrageous and some.
what original violation of law. Their
report does not make specific charge
against any one, but the inference that
has been drawn from it reflects Sc
riously upon man now high in af-
fairs of the State. We do not wish to
do any man injury in these columns;
hence make no afirmations where
charge is not preferred.

FIFTY-sEvENTH CONGRESS.
Shipping Bill Taken Up in the sem
ate-RuraI Free Delivery cIassi-
hcatiOn In the House.

Washington, March 3.-The senate
to-day began consideration of what
is popularity known as the shipping
bill--a measure to provide for ocean
mail service between the United
States and foreign ports and the com.
mon defense; promote commerce and
to encourage deep sea fisheries.
Mr.. Frye (Me.), chairman of the
committee ON commerce, made the
opening statement in support of the
bill. He occupied the floor for near
ly two hours. The policy of protec.
ton, which had been applied, he said,
to American industries with such
benefcent results, had not been ap-
piled to the shipping industry. The
results of this shortsighted policy had
been the decadence of the American
merchant marine and the consequent
humiliation of Americans engaged in
the shipping industry.
Mr.. Frye's address was largely tech
nical, but his argument was listened
to with close attention by senators
on both sides of the chamber.
Prior to the consideration of the
shipping bill many minor measures
were passed.
HOUSE.
The house began consideration OF
the bill to classify the rural free de.
livery service and place the carriers
under the contract system. Only two
speeches were delivered yesterday
Mr.. Loud (Cal) chairman of the com
mittee on post offices and post roads
made the opening argument in favor
of the bill, speaking for two and q
half hours, Mr.. Swanson (Va.) led
the opposition.
The debate was interrupted before
the close of the session by the pre-
sentation of the conference report
upon the Philippine tariff bill Mr.
Payne, the majority leader, declined
to allow the minority more than 3(
minutes in which to discuss the re
port, and this offer was rejected.

iourned after the previous question

Henry of Prussia arrived in Spring

Chicago, March A glare of red
FIRE that could be seen for miles, the
blaze of hundreds of torches, the
fjparlsle of myriad electric lights, and
the cheers of thousands of people
made up the first taste of Chicago's
hospitality that was given Prince
Henry of Prussia upon his arrival in
this city last evening. His train ar
rived at the depot of the Chicago &
Alton railroad at 6:30 o'clock, and
from there, after he had been formal
ly welcomed by Mayor Harrison and
the members of the general recep-
tion committee, Prince Henry rode
through streets packed with a dense
multitude, whose cheers compelled
the distinguished visitor to bow con-
tinually to right and left, The prince
arrived in the. city at time when
the streets were thronged to the ut
most, it being the hour when many
thousands of people were leaving
their places Of business for the day,
and all of these people it seemed that
nearly every one walked over to Jack
son boulevard to await the arrival OF
the prince. For the entire distance
the sidewalks were solidly massed
with people so closely packed that it
was with the greatest difficulty that
the line Of policemen drawn up in
front of the curb for the entire dis
tance could restrain the people from
crowding over into the street and en-
croaching upon the line of carriages.
For 80 minutes before the time set
for the arrival Of the train at the
