The victory OF the American yacht
over the Britisher will likely drive
Shamrock money out OF the field
At the same tins while there is lie
there is hope" aud the present
Shamrock has proved herself to be
the most dangerous challenger yet
sent across from England. A very
slight shifting of luck might yet give
the cup 10 Sir Thomas Upton.
There is an undercu<rent OF hope
in the United States that such will
be the outcome. America has held
the cup for more than forty yesrs,
and it is believed that If it is taken
to the other eide the very finest
points OF yacht building will be
question Of but very short time.
1t would shperinduce new impetus

orally, however much it might CRATE
on the tender edges of national
pride.

They Get No Protection From
Soldiers OF the Porte.

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Aug. ia fierce
battle is reported to have occurred In
the neighborhood of Monastir. Three
Turkish battalions attacked a thousand
Insurgents. and after the fight had
lged for six hours the Turks were re.
Used. with the loss of 210 men killed
wounded. The insurgent loss is not

Reports received here from Constan-
tinople, and believed to be authentic,
confirm the previous statements that
when the Turks reclptured KrushevO
they slaughtered the entire Christian
population without exception. 1t Is
pointed out that among those killed
were the employees of the government
tobacco establishments, which were IN
der European control, as the proceeds
from these establishments were assign
ed to the service OF the Turkish debt.
A reign of terror prevails at Uskub,
where the Christian inhabitants are
afraid to leave their houses. The vail
has issued the strictest orders to the
Mussulman population to remain quiet
and not molest their Christian neigh
bors, but the Mussulmans, meeting In
the mosques, have resolved at a given
signal to massacre the whole Christian
population Immediately the first insur-
gent band appears near Uskub or on
any other pretext. The Christians are
terrorized The Turkish troops, who are
their only protection, do not show the
slightest disposition to aid them. The
attitude of the Turkish troops was re-

ever. is unwilling to venture for the

against Turkey as 1t does not wish to

The Reliance to Allow the sham
rock III. I'm. ASS.
NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-The Reliance
and Shamrock III. were measured in
the Erie basin by G. ID. Mower, the off.
cial measurer of the New York Yacht
club. As result of his measurements
and calculations 1t was announced AT
the Yacht club that the Reliance would
allow the challenger I'm. 45s. over O
thirty mile course.
1t was found that the Shamrock III
was slightly longer on the water line
than the American boat, but the latter
proved TO have nearly 1000 more
square feet of sail area than the chal.
lenger, and 1t was this enormous sail
spread that taxed the American boat SC
heavily.
The announcement OF the time allow.
ance in favor of the challenger caused
but little surprise at the Yacht club, as
1t was the very general belief that the
Reliance would prove considerably lar.
ger all around than her opponent.

TREATY REJECTED.
Colombian Senate Throws Out the
Measure.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S. - An Off.
cial dispatch has been received by
Minister Herran, in which 1t was plain
ly stated that the canal treaty had
been rejected by the senate at Bogota.
The rejection of the canal treaty by
the Colombian senate has produced a
tremendous sensation on the isthmus.
1t was generally believed that the
treaty would pass with some modifica-
tions.
There is good reason to suppose that
the majority of the members of the
senate regard the Spooner amendment
to build canal by the Nicaragua route
If the Panama route was rejected by
Colombia as a mere threat on the part
of the United States. They are con-
vinced that the Nicaraguan project is
impossible and that the United States
will again deal with Colombia.
