thwarted in their purpose, however, by
the previous removal of the prisoners.

men with them. To what place they
were removed the Jail authorities refuse

gan collecting.

Wall street Monday. The bears pound.

a share In active securitie: ald to
as high as $3.50 q share In the mac.
tive issues. The losses in shares. &c.
cording to market quotations. reached

The gross decline OF 9ss points in
Northern Securities Company stock
alone represented paper loss OF ni
most ten per cent. on $400.0OO.00o. OF
$iOOOO,00 The valuine OF trading
was more than double the recent av.
erage, and not since the Northern Pa
cific corner OF May 0. 1901. had such
excitement prevailed In the financial
district.
The cause of the commotion was the
scope which spectators allotted to the
Federal Court decision which, pro-
nounced the Northern Securities Com.
pany an unlawful concern. 4 combira.
ton In restraint OF trade. They adapt.
ed the decision. to include all the big
railroad companies. all the recent coin.
binations and interweavings Of trans.
portation companies. and all the great
Industrial concerns. especially those
affiliated with railroad companies.
There was a rumor that, following
the Governments success In Its con.
tention against the legality Of the
Northern Pacific aud Great Northern
merger. suit would be begun to I'M.
cover the Coal Trust. 1t was said also
that action would lie against the con.
troll Of Southern Pacific by Union Pa.
cific, and that the holdings Of shares OF
one railroad by another which com
petes for traffic would raise questions
as to the legality Of such ownership.
These applications OF the Northern
Securities case and the rum0rs that
followed convulsed the market for
shares. But It was only because bear
speculators seized the opportunity to
attack the position of the bulls.
From an authoritative source 1t was
learned no new plan has been consid-
cred, or even outlined. by Mr.. Morgan
and Mr.. Hill In regard to action In the
emergency created by the merger de.
cisIon. Verbal notice Of the appeal OF
the case to the United States Supreme
Court has been given. and under the
rule Of the Court the appeal VIII op-
crate as q stay Of judgment. As the
case cannot come up for hearing before
next fall there u ample time to con-
slider the situation and there Will be
no immediate change In the status

THE RELIANCE LAUNCHED
Cup Defender FIosted Under tho Most
Auspieicus Conditions.
Christened by Miss Nor. rssiis-Hsrrs.
shoE's Latest Creation Appears
Graceful and Powerful.

Bristol. r. I.-Tl, new Yankee cup
defender was launched In the yards OF
the Herreshoff Manufacturing Com.
pany here. Three thousand spectators
had gathered at the works. and as thc
graceful racer was kissed for the frst
time by the sparkling waters cheer on
cheer rang out aEd looming cannon
rent the air.
Miss Nora Isei.n. a daughter Of 9.
Oliver Iselin. the Cticni ier's managing
owner. christcce.i IS Reliance the
lltest product Of tlie Herreshoffs. The
boat left the ways N 5.45 o'clock ana
there was not si:s.e hitch.
The method employed In launching
the Reliance was similar 10 that
adopted in the case of the Constitution
and Columbia. There was no thrilling
lash into the waters of the bay. 40 In
the case OF Vigiiant and Defender. In.
stead a steel caE.e was attached to the
cradle on which lie Reliance rested,
and when the signal was given the
yacht was slowly lowered into the
water.
It took fully four minutes to lower
the yacht so TINT her keel touched the
waters Of the bay. ard fully ten min.
utes more before she fioated clear OF
her cradle
When the doors OF the shed contain
ing Reliance were thrown open q most
pleasing sight was presented. Captain
Barr's sailor men had been bnsy. With
emery cloths they had FURNISHED the
under sides Of the beautiful yacht un-
til they shone like gold. The upper
sides were coated white some days ago.
The yacht almost oiled the shed from
end to end and from floor to roof.
A material departure has been taken
by Mr. Herreshoff in building the Re-
lance from the l;Ifs Of the Columbia
and Constitution. The latest product
ls larger over all. has harder bilges
and has q much Gatter floor. Her IN
Is longer. not quite so deep and thinner
than that Of the Constitution.
That the designer OF the Reliance
wished to turn ont boat Of great ini.
tial stability Is evident to all yachts
men who have seen the craft. Her
oeam. not under twenty-six feet, the
hard bilge and fat floor all prove that
such was his intention. ,.. !,
The sail plan for Reliance VIII 1t tho
craft with :rcater spread OF canvas
than vas ever arried By cup defend
er. The mast Is 1fS feet long. and the
main boom measures 100 feet. Her
canvas will take IN nearly 5000 square
feet.
The new boat has less freeboard than
Constitution. and she does not slow
very much shear. She measures over
all about 142 feet. and Is by great odds
the longest sirgle sticker ever built.
Her beam Is twenty-five feet ten inches
and her draught Is slightly under nine
teen feet.
70 those experts who have had m
opportunity to look Reliance over care.
fully she appears 10 be the best boat
ever turned out Of the Hesresho6
shops. She Is said to be an improved
Constitution.
The new boat CRAFTY pleases ftB
builders. who afirn that they have
not the slightest doubt that the cup is
safe with the Reliance to defend II.
