79+- IF
Pennsylvania Company Has Overcome
Opposition in New York

The New York Herald Of today says: OPP
position to the franchise for the Pennsyl-
vania railroads tunnel under Manhattan
Island, 1t was announced yesterday by a
city official who Is con- cerned in the nego-
tiations, has virtually been dissipated by
the revised contract Copies of which have
been sent to all interested persons by Ed
ward M. Shepard. COUNSEL to the rapid tran
sit commission. The new contract will be
considered today by the conference COM
mittee, represen ting the city, the commits
sion and the railroad company. Mayor
Low, who returns from his vacation today,
viii be present , .
There are four points upon which the con-
ferees have been divided These are the
perDetuity clause the insertion OF provf-
sions requiring the payment of the prevail
ing rate of wages and the employment of
men for eight hours day, according to the
state law, and the time when the payments
to the city will begin. Alderman Walkley
wants to have the payments start with the
inception of the work instead Of at the be-
ginning Of the operation of the tunnel.
1t is understood that the railroad COM
pany has yielded to the prevailing rate and
eight-hour demands made by President Can
tor, and that concessions have been agreed
upon which will give the city part at
least of the revenue when the construction
of the tunnel begins The opponents of the
plan, it is understood, realize that the ex-
cision Of the perpetuity clause would deter
the company from carrying out the work
and have agreed to permit it to remain,
subject to the limitations imposed by Mayor
Low, that the remuneration shall be revised
every twenty-five years.
Borough President Cantor, who returned
to his office yesterday after a trip to Mich
igan, said that he had not had time to ex-
anime the draft of the new contract
Il purpose sticking harder than ever to
the eight-hour and prevailing rate provi-
sions," said Mr.. Cantor, "and if they are not
included I shall oppose in every way the
granting of the franchise

Shooting at Long Ranges.

The shooting in the 500 and 6OO-yard
ranges In the afternoon in the Hilton match
proved as interesting and exciting as the
work at the short range, If not more 50.
General Harries was on the firing line early
and lay alongside the members of the team
at each stage of the game and encouraged
them, The wind conditions remained about
the same during the morning hours, and
at times the sun came out, and after short
intervals would disappear again. The light
sired and the wind of not enough velocity
to retard the progress of the men in the
match.
The New Workers and the New Jersey
riflemen attracted the attention of the spec
tators for the best part of the afternoon
matches. The Jerseymen were making
rapid progress when one of their men shot
on the wrong target, and this fact cut down
the lead between the Jersey team and the
New Workers..
At the end of the 500-yard stage the New
Workers had cut down the lead which the
Jerseymen had over them and gained ten
points. In the meantime the Pennsylvania
team, which had lead of four points over
the District at 200 yards, at the end Of the
600-yard shooting had dropped six points
in the rear of the District men. The New
Workers were shooting like demons at the
6O0-yard targets and had lead of twenty
two points over the District team, which 1t
was impossible to overcome. The scores
of the teams at the end of the shooting at
600 yards were follows: New York 75S
New Jersey, 74S; District of Columbia 1856;
Pennsylvania, 73O; Massachusetts, 723;
United States marine corps, ia; Ohio 674;
Maryland, 664, and the United States army,

AS the 600-yard stage of the match pro-
gressed the Districts chance for winning
the trophy began to diminish. 1t is pre-
dicted that had a strong wind been blowing
across the range the chances of the Dis
trict rif1emen would have been better. The
team Is better at shooting against a strong
wind. With the dead calm prevailing dur
ing nearly the entire afternoon yesterday
the boys were at loss when it came to
figuring on windage and elevations Still
they put up game fight to the finish. The
New Workers had the luck with them and
put up as pretty. a contest as was ever shot
on this range.
Gov. Murphy of New Jersey was visitor
at the range during the progress of the Hill
ton match and displayed great interest in
the work Of the marksmen.

COMMANDANT Dietary.

Commandant DeIarey, next to
DeWett, is one Of the best of the
Boer fighters. Heis against sur
render to the last. His operations
have extended over a wide field
and have been uniformly daring
and important. D5Iarey issued a
proclamation last fall. following
close on the heels of one issued
by Lord Kitchener, in which the
latter called all the Beers to sur
render by September 10Th. De-
larey's pronunciamentO was brief.
He called on the Beers to disre-
gard Kitchener's threats and
fight to the end. Delarey IS one
of the most unique personalities
among the many rugged charac-
ter developed by the Boer conflict.
He is known as "Silent man"
being unusually uncommunica-
tive. For eeven years he was a
member Of the v0Iksraad, and
rarely spoke there unless upon
some important subject. He is
one of the few who opposed the
insurance of the ultimation at the
secret meeting of the Rad. Gen.
Delarey is not and never has
been entirely in accord with ex-
President Kruger. He refuses to
take men who have taken the
oath of neutrality, and is always
much more lenient in his treat
OF prisoners than many of his fell
commanders. Two of his sons
entered the army at the time the
war commenced, but only one has
survived. The other, Is years
old, fell at the battle at the Mid
der river, fatally wounded by his
fathers side.
Are you hit?" The general
asked.

docs it pain you my boy?'
eyes, father"
care you going to die, my
SOM"
Eyes, father" came the final
answer, and in a few moments
there was only one of the gener-
ais sons left to fight,
Gen. Delarey is neat in dress
and appearance, and quick and
clean in his movements. He has
a magnificent physique, tall
straight as an arrow, with broad
shoulders, surmounted by mas
sive head. He is dignified and
courteous in his bearing, and
Lord Roberts has commented
favorabIy of the generals actions
