Waiting For the Verdict.

While the executive committee was holding a session in the Insurance building last night the streets about the center of the city were filled with people from all walks of life and the all ab- sorbing topic was whether or not the men woud accept the proffered terms Of the company. Little knots formed here and there all actively engaged in dis cussing the various phases of the entire situation and speculating as to the final outcome. The striking motormen and conductors gathered about the Insur- ance building and congregated on the green and discussed the matter and all in an orderly manner
 A few minutes past II o'clock the committee adjourned and made it's ap- pearance on the street ealing to all their comrades to spread the word broadcast that a mass meeting of the men was to be held in Aurora hall im- mediately. There was quick response to this call and the men on the streets wended their way to the hall in man. ner which indicated that they were glad to learn that the crisis, whether favorable or otherwise to their interests had been reached and that it was to be submitted to them for final decision. The work of gathering the men was a more difficult task than might be supposed, and as the presence of every member of the union was declared a necessity messengers on bicycles were dispatched to all parts of the city and many messages were sent by telephone IT. opl i: I at least 200 of the men had gathered in the hall and were awaiting the call to order.

THE NATIONAL BANKS.
Controller of the Currency Shows Them
 to be tn Excellent Condition,

Washington, Aug. s.-Hon. William Barret Ridgely, controller of the cur rency, to-day made the following state ment in regard to the summary of the condition of national banks of the Unit ed States at the close of business We'd nesday, July 18th:
 'The reports of condition show the banks to be in excellent shape. The in creases in most of the statements are most consistent with the universal re- ports of the properous condition of bus mess and the increase in its volume all over the country. The footing of the $6, ,00S, 754, ,975, is, the largest on record The least favorable feature of the statement, however, is perhaps the con- tinued increase in lOans-$49, 102, 145 since the statement of April 30, 1902, and $204, ,953,255 over the statement of July 15. 1901.
 "The average reserve held by the banks has increased from 27.21 per cent on April 30, 1902, to 274S per cent July 16.
 There has been a slight decrease in the deposits since April 3Oth, but 8 handsome increase for the year"

PACIFIC CABLE PLANS.
Approved by Prestdent-Wiiib be Placed
 Before Congress.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. S.-During the afternoon the conference between the president and Attorney General Knox developed into one of the most important that have been held at Saga more Hill.
 Several months ago the Pacific Cable Co. sought permission from the exec utive branch of the government to lay a Pacific cable running from San Fran cisco via Honolulu and Guam to China, there to connect with the British cable to the Philippines. The proposition of the company was to assume all expense of laying and operating the cable. For the concessions of landings at San Francisco, Honolulu and Guam the company proposed to grant to the Unit ed States government special rates and in certain conditions of war practically absolute control of the cable. The con- ditions as presented by the company to the president were naturally such as any corporation might make. They had been drawn for the protection of the company's interests. MT. Roosevelt re- ferred the whole subject to Attorney General Knox The results of his in- yestigation and his conclusions MT. Knox presented to President Roosevelt to-day. President Roosevelt approved of the amended condition and so far as the executive branch of the government

BRYAN NOT 4 CANDIDATE.
Will Not Run for Presidential Nomina-
 ton fin 1901.

Muscatine, Ia., Aug. S-William J. Bryan settled for all time the rumors that he will be a candidate for presi- dent in 1904 in an interview to-day. Colonel Bryan when shown yesterday s reports that he might again be a can didate, was much nettled, and express ed himself in no uncertain manner. The Mason City interview, he said, was unreliable.
 Il will not be a candidate for presi- dent in 19O4,' said Mr.. Bryan. While would not promise never to be a can- didate again under any circumstances I have no plans looking Ito the future nomination for any office. I am per- fectly content to do my work as a pri- vate citizen and enjoy my editorial work. shall continue to advocate with tongue 'and pen reforms which I be- lieve to be necessary"
 Talking of the Republican platform of Iowa MT. Bryan said: T am glad tc notice an improvement in Iowa politics By the action of the recent state re- publican convention I am glad to note that they realize and recognize that be- hind the tariff turks the great monopo- lies and trusts of this country. Nine years ago introduced a bill into con- gress exactly along this same line, talk ing the tariff off trust made goods and although the endorsement comes little late. am glad to note that, even after nine years the republicans of Iowa have come to my way of thinking. But the action of the republican party of Iowa vii be of little effect in national pol itics for the simple reason that those who control legislation are those who favor an doperate the gigantic trusts and monopolles of the country"

ANOTHER FINE RUN.
New York Yacht Club Again Sails Under
 Fine Conditions.

Provincetown, Mass, Aug. 8. - The seventy mile run of the New York Yacht club cruise before an eighteen knot southwestern from Vineyard Haven to this port to-day not only furnished the best sport of the week, but proved one of the finest runs in the history of the club cruises, equalling if not ex- ceeding the run made eleven years ago around Cape Cod Starting out two hours after sunrise the leaders of the fleet kept up twelve knot pace for ever seventy-five miles, being almost entirely before the wind and ending up with a smart, hard thrash over the four miles of the home stretch from Race Point to the finish line at Wood End light. Nearly every yacht was able to get into the harbor some hours before sunset and every one was enthusiastic over the sport. The big yacht Constel- lation, owned by Francis Skinner of Boston, led three quarters of the way, but was beaten out at the finish by the three seventy Hooters Rainbow, Mineola and Yankee, the first of the three lead ing the entire fleet across the line.
 While off Nauset the schooner Elmina broke her spinnaker pole and sailed a dozen miles wing and wing. During this time the Muriel, her greatest rival, got by her and shortly after the Amorita, another of the same class, passed both of them.
 On reaching Race Point the Constel- lation slackened her sheets sharp start ing on the four mile beat to the finish. On getting out beyond the point she met a terrific sea, on the whole sweep of Cape Cod bay, and at that time it seemed as if the wind was blowing twenty knots an hour. The big schoon- CT with sharp line seemed to make but little headway as compared with the easy going seven,J Hooters and all three of these latter boats soon passed her.
 The Mineola tried in vain to get by the Rainbow, even setting a jibtopsail half mile from the finish but it was of little use and the Vanderbilt boat cross ed the line at 7:3S:53, leading the Min cola by one minute fifty-seven seconds and the Yankee by three minutes thir- ty-fve seconds, having made the seven ty-nine miles in 7:01:13, speed of over eleven knots an hour, including the four mile beat to the finish. The Consteila- tion made the fastest time of the day, sailing the distance in 6:59:47 or over twelve miles an hour.
 The Rainbow wins the commodore s cup for single masted vessels and one offered by Captain Royal Phelps Car roll for class H. The Elmina wins two cups, the one offered by the commodore and the other offered by Cornelius Van derbilt to the winner in class D.

 The strikers held a special meeting in Aurora hall, on Union street, at 1:1O this morning. The motion was made that, inasmuch as so many of the members of the union were not present the re- port of the unions executive committee be not submitted until o'clock this morning. when the regular daily meet ing will be held. The motion was car ried by unanimous vote and the meet ing thsn adjourned.
 Chairman Fitzgerald stated after the meeting that he had nothing to say re- garding the report or conclusions of the executive committee, as that matter will be first and formally announced to the men at the session this morning.
 Previous to the meeting in Aurora hall the executive committee of the Street Railway Employes' union held three-hours' session in Trades Council hall. The meeting began shortly after 8 o'clock and lasted until il, when the committee adjourned to meet the strik- CTS in the mass meeting in Aurora hall. Many of these were aroused from their beds and taken to the hall in teams. AS many of the employees live in Westville, West Haven, East Haven and other su- burban places the work of getting a quorum required some length of time At last when the meeting was called to order the attendance was not sufficient ly large, in the sight of the leaders, to warrant taking definite action on the report of the executive committee.
 From Il to 1 o'clock the men assem- bled in the hall spent the time in listen ing to songs, recitations and piano se-- lections, which were rendered by vari- ous members of the union.
 The unofficial report concerning the situation was that the executive com mittee of the strikers had accepted the settlement proposed by the citizens committee and the general belief was that the terms would be accepted by the strikers at their meeting this morn ing.

The Afternoon Session.

The subcommittee that waited on the strikers in their rooms in the Insurance building yesterday afternoon reported there at o'clock, an hour later than usual.
 When the business men informed the executive committee that the road had agreed to reinstate the twenty-one dis charged men the executive committee made single request of the committee. That request was that MT. Parmelee and the directors of the road be asked if a committee of employees would be received by the road in the future, even if the members of that committee were members of the union.
 It was understood by the committee that if the answer to that question was in the affirmative the men were pre- pared to go to work. The committee submitted that question to Directors Watrous and Day. representing MT. Parnelee, who was too ill to appear at the conference. After some discussion .. tContinued on Second Page,)
