A RUSH 70 VICTORY
The Reliance Goes Swimming
Away From the Co
lumbia.
(By the Associated Press.)

New ork, May 21.-By a combination OF
good luck and splendid sailing qualities
the new cup yacht Reliance today in
Hicted such a defeat upon the former
cup defender Columbia as she has never
before suffered, leading her over the fin
ish line of twenty-fve-mile course on
Glen Cove by fourteen minutes and forty
three seconds official time.
Not all the glory of that rosy victory
was fairly earned by the new boat. II 1T
had been. there would be no doubt that
the Reliance would be the next cup de-
fender. But despite the Columbia's i'll
luck, the Reliance convincingly showed
herself to be the better boat. She had
beaten the Columbia nearly eight minutes
in a broad reach Of eleven miles IN ffuky
zephyrs, beaten her one minute and fiji
teen seconds running free for three miles
in steady twelve knot breeze and beat
en- her four minutes and fifteen seconds
in an eleven mile thresh to windward close
hauled in a fifteen knot Southwestern.
This timing is unofficial and allows for
the Reliances ffty-five seconds adyan-
tage at the start When the Reliance
crossed the finish line the Columbia was
three miles astern and hopelessly beaten.
But the victory was not so great as the
result might Indicate The Columbias i'll
luck in fIuky winds in the three hours nee
essary to cover the first eleven miles had
contributed to her defeat. That first
leg was not a fair test of the merits of
the two boats but it suffced to develop
surprise in drifting abilities in the Re
lance, supposed until today to be a heavy
weather boat.
The official time is as follows:
Reliance start 1:57; finish 6:14:36;
elapsed time 4:17:36.
Columbia start 1:57; finish 6:29:19;
elapsed time 4.32:19.

WHOCUT HIS THROA12
New Story Told in the Man
gum SIashing Affair.
John Kelly is Anxious for Hearing and His Law
yers Wi / Present New View Of the
Throat Cutting.

Will Mangum, whose throat slash III
East Raleigh gave little hope of life Is
improving steadily, and his cut throat Is
healing nicely.
But this is not the danger that his ply
stefan fears. AS the result of the cutting
blood settled upon Mangum's lungs and
it is from this that danger IS feared.
John Kelly, the negro hack owner and
driver, is still in Jail awaiting Mangum' 5
condition. Not until Mangum IS able
TO stand the strain of appearance does
Mayor Powell desire to have a hearing in
the case.
But Kelley's attorneys are growing i'm
patient at the delay and are urging trial.
1t is probable that some steps may be
taken today in regard to this.
1t is learned that Kelly's lawyers have a
new theory of the throat slashing, and it
is one that was learned of for the first
time yesterday. 1t involves other parties
in the bloody deed, and if it can be proved
will entirely relieve Kelly.
This is that woman cut Mangum' 5
throat It is said that Mangum was IN a
room in Annie Taylors house in East
Raleigh and that a dispute arose between
him and the woman over money matters.
This grew violent and a struggle ensued
in which the woman cut Mangums throat.
At this he is said to have fled from the
house, reached carriage outside and was
brought to Bobbitt- Wynnes drug store.
Captain Thompson, of the police force,
smiled when TINS report was told him last
night. There was blood on the front
piazza of Annie Taylor.s house." said he,
land this led to the carriage. There was
no trail of blood out of the house, This
being so it is impossible to see how Man
gum, with his throat cut and bleeding
profusely, could have come out of the
house without leaving a trail Annie
Taylor says he was cut outside of her
house.
The hearing in the matter viii come up
in few days, and the indications are that
there viii be some lively developments in
the throat slashing event.

of Russia. 1t is not hatred of the peasant
toward the Jew, but the persecution of
the church against the Jew that is respon-
sible for the atrocities committed. The in
stigator of the horrible murders is the ia
natical Pobiedonostzeff. who is the Tor
quemada of the Russian inquisition. The
ambition of this man is to convert all the
inha bitants of Russia to the Greek Church
and his wrath is not visited upon the
Jews alone, but upon Roman Catholics
and Protestants alike. Fifty Cossacks
upon their horses rode into the Roman
Catholic Church at Kross, town in the
government of Kovno, and slaughtered
the peasants while kneeling at the altar.
What can parallel the persecution and suf-
fering endured by the Protestants of Fin
land and Courlnad at the hands of church?
The underlying cause of this persecution,
murder and pillage is that the Russian
Church wants the Jew to become Greek
Catholic"

TO ACTS OF SELF DEFsEcE.
An Explanation Of the Massacre Of Jews Wor-
thy of Butchers Engaged in 1t
(By the Associated Press. }


st. Petersburg, wednesday. May 20
The circular of Interior Minister Won
PIewei, issued May 18th, ascribed the
massacre of the Jews at Kischeneff large
" to acts of self-defense on the part Of the
Jews and continued:
1.-The events at Kischeneff have alarmed
many regions of the empire and have oc-
casioned rumors among the Christians
about intended Jewish prosecutions. In
some of the cities, the Jews began forming
self defense associations. After l reported
to His Majesty about the disorders His
Majesty commanded me to impress on the
commanders in the provinces and towns that
they are obligated and are held personally
responsible to take all the necessary meas
ures to prevent violence and calm the
populace in order to remove the occasion
of fears for life and property in any por-
ton.
I'm informing your excellency of the
monarch's will, I feel obliged to state for
your guidance that no sort of associations
for self-defense can be tolerated.
The Jews are not inclined to depend
solely on the police and have armed them
velves in spite of the circular throughout
the Jewish belt Undoubtedly their action
prevented a repetition of the massacre at
Kiev, Odessa, Minsk and elsewhere. Fne
Minsk Jews are so alarmed that the slight
est outbreak causes a general closing and
barricading of their shops.

NABBEO The NEGRO
Raleigh Polic1 Get the S. A,
[. Porter Who Stole
St93, 27.

The temptation was too much and Hen
ry Brown fell and is now in jail.
Brown. is a negro, and his job was as 9
porter in the S. A. l. freight office.
He saw an envelope on the desk Of
Collector H. NJ. Harris on Monday wher
Harris was out of the Office Brown an
nexed this at once, and last night Browr
was annexed.
The trick was turned by Captain
Thompson and Officer Anderson, of the
police force, who quickly worked up the
case and put Brown behind the bars
awaiting his trial.
The money was in a hundred dollar
bill three twenties and smaller amounts
The police found that Brown had spent
about $3.50 after being paid the $50 he
gets as a months wages.
They investigated and found that he
had bought a $3.50 suit of clothes and
$500 pair of patent feathers from Gross
& Linehan They visited Browns home
on New Bern avenue last night and saw
Brown about his affairs.
At first he denied but Captain Thomp-
son piled him with questions. Tt was too
much for Brown and he told of his theft.
In his trunk. was SIT and in the room
was the suit of clothes and the shoes,
none of which had been worn. These
make up the $19S and Collector Harris
has played in luck
The trial of Brown will take place this
morning and as the case is all against
him the future has for him prison bars,
a striped suit, and labor on the public
improvements which the wicked do for
the State. The Raleigh police were quick
ON trigger with the porter who could not
resist temptation.
