of the acting comptroller of the cur
rency, after a conference by telephone
with National Bank Examiner w. \.

making a special examination of the
bank. The bank was examined in
regular order on July 27 and the ex-

Examiner Mason discovered increased
shortages and irregularities to such
an extent as to render the bank in
solvent. A new president, cashier

and an effort made by the latter TO

WESTERN MINERS STRIKE.
Workers on a Drainage Tunnel In the
Cripple Creek District are out.


Cripple Creek, Col, Aug. 14.-Union
miners working in the drainage tun-
mel were called out yesterday by their
executive officers. The tunnel, which
will drain most of the big mines of
the district, would have been com
pleted in another week at the rate of
progress heretofore maintained. The
strike was ordered in consequence of
the refusal of superintendent Brain
bridge to employ only union men.
I'VE will complete that tunnel if it
takes the United States army to pro-
tect the work, and if it is necessary
for us to put on our working clothes
and do the labor ourselves" said
President Samuel Bernard, of the FL
Paso Mining Co., which has the con
tract for building the tunnel.
1t is not unlikely that rich mine
owners and high salaried miners will
go into the big bore to take the places
of the men caHed out. There are now
about 1000 miners idle in the district.
The operators have announced their
determination to resume operations
as soon as men can be secured, pref
erence being given to former EN-
ployes. The owners characterize the
action of the officers of the Western
Federation Of Miners in calling the
strike in the absence of any griev-
ance as ''arbitrary and unjustifiable."
and announce that "all men applying
for work will be protected to the last
1porpp" "

CHAMPIONSHIP REGATTA.
~ Takes Place ON Lake Quinsiga'
Uund Winnipeg Crew wins Two
Races-Some Strenuous Rowing.

Worcester, Mass, Aug. with
ideal weather conditions the nine
events which constituted the first day
of the thirty-iirst championship re-
gatta of the national oarsmen were
successfully run off yesterday on
Lake Quinsigamond.
The feature of the day was the
eight-oarded contest for the Richard
Knox cup and the victory of the JEFF
frcys Point crew. East Boston, Mass,
was not only decisive but rather dis
appointing to the local favorites, the
eight of the Wachusetts Boat club.
The latter made a fine fight all the
way down the course, but the Boston
crew led from the start and was
never headed. The rowing Of the
New York Athletic clubs eight was
also strong, but the crews of the Co
lumbia Boat club, of Allegheny. and
the st. Alphonsus Athletic associa-
ton, of Boston, made rather poor fin
isheS.
Another surprise was the victory of
the Winnipeg crew in the senior in
ternational fours and the senior four
cared shells. The crew of the East
Boston \. y. Il. c. had long been pick
ed as almost sure winners in both
events. and while they made two hot
fights the Canadians won each by
good margins.
The ease with which Lon F. Scholes,
of Toronto won his heat in the asso-
citation senior sculIs was not uneX-
pected, neither was any one surpris-
ed when f. Il. Peterson, of the East
Boston club. came in second. The
rest of the competitors were far be-
hind.
In the second heat of this event F.
Wesley, of the First Bohemian Boat
club. also had an easy time, but the
struggle for place between r. De-
mourello, Of New Orleans, and w. NJ.
NarIey, of the Atalanta Boat club, of
New York, was the ficrcest of the
day. The former won by bare foot
and the latter was so exhausted that
he tumbled from his shell on crossing
the finish line. The water revived him
and he was hauled aboard the start
er's Loaf in fairly good condition.

story of the Race.

Toronto. Ont, Aug. 1.-THE Iron
dcquoit, the American challenger for
the Canadian cup, won the deciding
race of the series yesterday, thus
wrestling the trophy from across the
water. 1t viii now rest in the Roch-
ester Yacht club until some Canadian
boat shall bring ii back.
The race was triangular one,
seven miles to Il leg, the first leg to
windward and the other two reaches,
the last one rather close hauled,
owing to the shifting of the wind.
The breeze at the start was light, but
grew heavier as it shifted Though
the weather was not to the Ironde
quoit's liking, the betting was ) to
on her.
Hannah, on the Irondequoit, had
the better of Jarvis on the ,Strath-
coma in iockeying for the start and
the American yacht went flying across
the line with a small lead. Both were
on the starboard tack and stayed
close together for some time. When
they finally went about they could lay
course for the buoy and both made
the turn on the port tack.
When they went about the Strath-
coma was fully POO yards astern. but
she had as good a windward berth as
her rival.
Turning the first mark the Ironde-
QUOT broke out her biggest iib top
sail and the great spread of canvas
dragged her along in fine style. The
Canadians delayed for three minutes
after striking their iib topsail to set
a balloon iib before they had the
headsail up. The Irondequoit was on
her fayorite angle. After some min
utes skipper Hannah, who had been
watching the lifting power of his
rivals balloon. broke out an immense
balloon iih on the lrondequoit. The
change in canvas was made in a
tIice. The Irondequoit then hauled
steadily away from the Strathcona.
The Strathcona gained 30 seconds
on her rival on the second leg, but
within four miles of the finish her
case was hopeless.
When the American boat dashed
across the line the excursion feet did
not take the loss of the cup very gra
ciously. Not whistle was heard for
some minutes. Finally, however, the
excursion steamers saluted the VIC
torious American boat and crew.

turning from the crypt. Cardinal
Macchi placed upon the shoulders OF
the pope the pontiical pallium and
attached it with three golden jewcled
pins.
Mass was then celebrated with
great pomp and ceremony, the voice
of the pope becoming gradually more
firm and sonorous until il was even
audible i'm the most distant corner of
the immense church. Following this,
Cardinal Macchi performed the rite
of inccnsing the pope, whom he sub

cheeks and chest, as did Cardinals
Segna and Nannuteli Upon the
pope's return to the throne the car

the pontiff, kissing his hand and feet,
and being embraced by him twice in
turn. The bishops and archbishops
kissed his foot and right knee, while
the abbots kissed only his foot. The
holy father then walked to the

REVIEW OF TRADE.

New York, Aug. 15.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Earnings of railways for August
thus far show an average gain of ~
per cent. over last years figures and
1G.3 per cent. compared with 1901.
Distribution of merchandise is very
heavy, more interruption to traffic
being recorded, and in staple lines
prices are steady. Preparations for
fall trade are vigorous, many manu-
facturers working overtime to fill inn
Fortunate orders. Collections are
fully as prompt as usual for the sea-
son, although in some lines there is
less inclination to discount bills.
Crop news is rcasSuTing.
Hesitation in certain branches of
the iron and steel industry, incident
to the season and aggravated by labor
difficulties is indicated with some de-
gree of defniteness by the monthly
statistics just published by the Iron
Age. \ vast amount of business is
being done, but there is no indication

PLACING THE TIARA UPON THE POPE'S HEAD.

gathered within the cathedral burst
into restrained acclamations, the
choir intoned hymn of triumph and
the bells of Rome rang out joyful
peal
1t is 81 years since the Romans and
Europe assisted at such function
As was held in St. Peters yesterday.
The great basilica, popularly suppos-
ed never to have been quite full was
overfowing with humanity. The
papal throne, bewildering mixture
of gold, red and silver. was erected
in front of the high altar.
After their entrance the people
had long hours of waiting and it is
computed that the ma iority were on
their feet altogether ten hours, five
before the ceremony and another five
hours while it lasted.
Inside the Vatican palace there was
no less movement and hustle as the
papal procession, composed of about
500 persons, all of whom had gath
cred early in the apostolic palace,
was formed.
The central figure in the long
cortege was Plus Y, borne in the
/ sedia gestatOria.
/ On the appearance of the pontiff it
seemed as though the people would
/ seek to carry him in their arms, so
/ great was their enthusiasm. Cries
/ of Plus, our pope, our father" and
/ Long live Plus Y" were raised, not
/ withstanding the large placards post
ed all over the basilica saying: "Ac-
/ clamatiOns are forbidden
3 h
/ ried out. The master of ceremonies
/ knelt three times before the pontiff,
each time lighting a handful of hemp
! which Surmounted a silver torch and
as the flame flashed and then died out
| he chanted "Pater Sancte, Sic Transit
Gloria Mundi' (holy Father, thus
/ passeth away the glory of the
world).
The procession then proceeded. AT
the chapel of the sacrament there
was another halt and his holiness left
the sedia gestatoria and prayed at the
altar. On re-entering the chair he
was carried to the chapel of st. Greg
Ory, where he oiIiciated at a mass.
Then all the cardinals donned their
silver copes and white mitrcs and the
pope was borne to the throne amid
. renewed acClamatiOns.
The scene presented on his mount
ing the throne formed a magnificent
picture to which no pen could do JUS
tice. The central figure was the ven
cradle pontiff seated on the throne.
Two lines of cardinals clad in silver
and scarlet reached to the high altar
with its burden of burning candles
and sacred vessels, while around
stood the papal guards, the pontihcal
court, monks and officials. The cathe-
'iral was illuminated with twinkling
lights, while the marble columns and
walls rendered the color scheme more
vivid. Overhead was the most mag
nifcent dome in the world, up to
which foated the harmony of music
From the throne Plus Y, surround
ed by his suite, walked to the high
altar, standing over the crypt of ST.
Peter into which meanwhile Car
dinal Macchi descended to pray. The
pope then blessed the altar and after
saying the "Indulgentiam,' the mani
pie, 4 symbol Of the cord with which
Christ was bound on his capture, was
placed, with great ceremony, upon

time prayers for the coronation were
