OF Conviction Ean,e.

The Housesmiths and Bridgemen's I'm
Fifty sixth street and Third avenue, and
was Just about to ad jouTn at midnight
last night when the news that Sam Parks
had been convicted reached the meeting.
The housesmiths refused at first to be-
lieve it and as the news spread members
came running in from the nearby saloons
Tim Mccarthy, the other indicted dele
gate, began furious denunciation Of
Robert f, Neidig, the president. who was
in the chair.
Explain why you took the books and
contrary to our constitution" he shouted
you have given bigger blow to Parks
than any one in New York"
Mccarthy then demanded that Neidie
he deposed from the chair and that the
secretary take his place. Howls and cheers
followed till it looked as if there would be
an attack on Neidig.
Neidig, ordinarily quiet, showed his
colors for once. Pale with rage he adj
vanced to the platform and shouted to the
advancing members:
mo. you don't. l won't resign my place
Not for single one Of your dirty grafters
Nor for you.' pointing to Mccarthy
"You can't make me retire. | dare you
to lay finger on me- The constitution
has nothing to do with this"
BY this time the meeting was surprised
into stiffness. Continuing Ncidig said;
"You have got the meeting with you
but let me- see you try to penalize me. You
haven't got the courage, and you know
you can do it.
Come on and try to depose me-"
None tried. The members of Parks Is
entertainment committee then found their
tongues They cursed Recorder Goff, the
District Attorneys office, Parks's lawyers
and every one they could think of.
Il would have given 500 to have pre-
vented it," shouted one man. Not for
Parks's sake alone, but for the union.'
Neidig declined to discuss the conviction
of Parks, nor would the other officers
After the entertainment committee had
exhausted its vocabulary every one went

HIGH TRIBUTE TO HAY.
Ablest OF Living Diplomats. Says the
London spectator"
Special Gable Despatch to THE Sun.


LONDON, Aug. 2l.-The Spectator, in
connection with the signing of the COM
mercial treaty between tho United States
and China. including the clause providing
for the opening of Mukden and Tatungta
on Oct. s. devotes an article TO Secretary
Of State Hay. 1t says:
1T is the browning proof that he is one
of the ablest and most successful of living
diplomatists, or rather Foreign Ministers
The incident affords a useful opportunity
for considering Mr.. Hays place among the
worlds statesmen and noting the qualities
that have raised him to that great position.
His ruling qualities are serenity, firmness.
a high sense of honor as we'll az of public
duty, and a wide knowledge of men and
affairs, without trace of the bully or blus-
terer in his composition He is never
awed, not merely by other men, kind of
courage which is not uncommon, but he
is never awed by rumor, circumstance or
the creation of bogies of any kind"
The Spectator pays a high tribute to
Mr.. Hays behavior as Ambassador to
England, especially during the Spanish
war, when man who was considered to
be only brilliant man of letters proved
a true statesman. The Spectator attributes
his calmness self-possession, and quiet
ability to meet and hold his own with the
ablest foreign diplomatists to his training
as President Lincon's secretary during
a period which made the Spanish war seem
storm in tea cup. The article con-
cludes by expressing regret that President
Roosevelt, Mr. Hay and others do not COL
lect young men around them and train
them in a similar manner for few years as
secretaries, since such training would he

Michael Gleason, the engineer OF hoist
ing engine on the gas company's pier at
the foot of West Seventeenth street, was
drowned yesterday afternoon while trying
to save ten-ycar-old Frank Ryder of 1872
Tenth avenue, who was being swept out
Of the slip by the tide. A second man,
Daniel Moriarty, n laborer on the dock,
who went in after Gleason, narrowly es-
capped drowning, and David Reilly, the
mate of sand schooner moored to the pier,
who did succeed in reaching the boy, was
only saved by the timely arrival of help

Twelfth avenue. 1t was in the new slip
thus formed at Seventeenth street that
young Ryder went swimming.
Earlier in the afternoon Ryder and n
number Of other small boys wanted to go
in swimming off the end of the pier, but
the men on the sand schooner Racer, which
lay alongside, warned them off, Young
Ryder was the only one who persisted
He started from the head of the slip and
swan toward the schooner to show the
men that he wasn't afraid of the tide.
Swimming back wasn't such easy work,
and after few minutes hard struggle
with the current he shouted for help. Glca-
son, the engineer on the pier, jerked of
his coat and shoes and plunged overheard
from the stringpiece. He didn't seem 10
be much Of swimmer and a moment
later Reilly jumped overheard too. He
overhauled Gleason and reached the boy
Just as he had about given up. Young
RYDER was wild with fright and grabbed
his rescuer around the neck in grip that
made him helpless
Meanwhile Gleason was seen to be in
dist ress and Moriarty jumped after him.
Moriarty could scarcely swim stroke and
was glad to lay hold of derrick rope which
had been thrown out by some Of the loungers
on the pier He was hauled ashore. Mean
time Gleason went down out of reach.
James Conklin OF SOP West Sixteenth

SHAMROCK TOBE REMEASURED
REPORT THAT SHE DID Not NAVE
ANCHOR AND CABLE ON O.lRD.

To Sail In Proper Trim To-day and 60 to
May Put Her Over the 8O-Foot Limit
Rival Yachts Try Sails In the Hay
There is more trouble about the measure
ment Of the Shamrock III. and that yacht
will go to the Erie Basin again on Monday.
and Charles D. Mower will take her water
line length again There is doubt as 10
whether she had an anchor and cable
on board at the time of measuring. II has
been asserted that she did.
The rules Of the New York Yacht Club
say that yachts must have one anchor and
cable and certain other fixtures in place
when measured and it is the duty Of the
measurer and Of the representative of the
club to see that these rules are complied
with when yacht goes under the tape.
The Shamrock III. measured very close
to the 90-foot limit Of yachts that can race
for the Americas Cup. She had fraction
over two inches to spare. her water-line
length being so 81 feet
II she had not an anchor and cable when
measured II will probably mean that with
this extra weight on board she will exceed
the limitation OF water line length and
ballast will have to he removed from the
boat to bring her to the proper length.
The committee Of the club on Cup chal-
lenge has been in communication with Col.
Sharman Crawford of the Royal Ulster
Yacht Club committee, and late yes
terdav ex-Commodore Ledyard mott
fed Col. Crawford that the Shamrock
was to sail in to-days race with an anchor
and cable on board, and that on Monday
she was to be remeasured and at the time Of
the remeasuring she was to be in the same
trim as when she races to-day.
This will mean that if the Shamrock
should win to-day and at the remeasure-
ment ii is found that she exceeds 90 feet
length on the waterline she will be dis
qualified because she exceeds the limit
If she is beaten in to-days race and is
found to be over the length, it remains to
be seen If the committee will call the race
of or decide that it stand as one against
the challenging yacht
When the challenging and defending
yachts ere measured representatives of
each club and of the challenge and regatta
committees are on hand to see that all
the rules are complied with. Charles d.
Mower did the measuring. n. G. Here
shoff looked after the interests of the Re-
lance while Mr.. Iselin watched from the
edge of the dock.
William Fife watched the interests OF
the Shamrock Ill. Robert Bacon was
on hand as the representative of the New
York Yacht Club and II. NJ McGidowney
represented the Royal Ulster Yacht Club.
| Newbury d. Lawton was present at tho
! measuring from the regatta committee
of the New York Yacht Club
1t is said that tho measurement Of the
Shamrock was protested by the Reliance
and new measurement asked for.
