they show an increase In crime ove'

gether be accounted for by the natural
increase of population. The total num-
ber of convictions reached 497 800, or
g7,503 more than last year. In the
categories of ordinary theft and ROB
berry with violence the increase is very
marked, probably owing to the want
caused by general trade depression. A
remarkable increase is also observable
In offenses against officials and against
public orders. Probably the largest in

Shamrock III, Under CanUaS Tent,
Is Scraped and Polished.

Sir Thomas Upton made several trips to Erie
Basin yesterday TO visit his yacht Shamrock III,
on which fifty men were working like beavers
scraping and polishing the hull below the water
line. The Shamrock is in her old berth, at the
inner or north end of the Boston drydock and
there she will remain until the day before the
first international race Of August 20
Carpenters and others were at work yesterday
erecting a scanolding around the yacht, and by
dark she was completely covered in by canvas
curtain. the entire hull being hidden from view
The upper portion. carried over the deck at
height of about eight feet. formed awning for
the crew to work under while the lower part hung
clear down from the slanting part to the bottom OF
the drydock. This is not TO hide the yacht from
the public view but that the yachts hull may be
protected from the dampness and the rain should
any come as it is Of the utmost importance that
the plates should be kept perfectly dry while the
process of enamelling is going on.
Men aloft in boatswains' chairs all day
scraplng the paint of the tall mast. while others
were scrapng the mainboom, which has been I'M
shipped and is lying along the deck All the spars
will get a coat of paint before the yacht
comes out OF the drydock. Sir Thomas Upton and
Mr.. Fife are determined that nothing shall be left
undone that might make the Shamrock absolutely
fit for the coming races and to that end they have
obtained the services of the foreman OF Denny 5
yard at Dumbarton. Scotland, where Shamrock III
was built He is now at the Erie basin. superin-
tending the process of enamelling, which it is said
will make the smoothest surface that it is possible
TO produce, and that offers less resistance to
the water than any yet discovered.
Those in charge of the Reliance. however. have
faith In the smoothness Of the Tobin bronze. OF
which that yacht is built. The Reliance is expected
at the Erie Basin Friday or Saturday of this
week. and the steam yacht Erin is TO go into the
drydock on Wednesday Thursday for cleaning
and painting before the races

there is no shadow of doubt At the conclusion
of the race the Reliance was Of1c1aIly declared
TO be the selected Cup defender for this year. The
decision has been foreseen for time. for she
has clearly demonstrated that. though not an all
round Improvement on the Constitution, she is al
most the equal of that vessel in circumstances
and vastly her superior in others which are likely
to prevail in the Cup races.
The unsatisfactory feature in the many
matches sailed by the three American yachts IS
the uncertainty as to the form shown by the Co
Iurnbfa. 1t seems impossible that she could ever

unless through bad handling or faulty sails. At
