SEPARATION OF THE RACES.
John Temple eraveS' solution of Negro
 Problem.


 Chicago, Sept. S.-John Temple Graves of Georgia delivered an address on "The Problem of the Races to-day before the forty-eighth convocation of the University of Chicago. He said in part:
 Separation of the races is the way the only way. If God hath made of one blood all the nations of the earth, he hath also established unto them the metes and bounds of their habitation. God did not intend that opposite and antagonistic races should live together.
 The prejudice is a pointing of Provi- dence and the antagonism of peoples Is the fixed policy by Wlch God peoples the different portions of the universe and established the individuality of the nations. The act that brought these people together on this continent was a sin of the fathers-a sin of greed, an iniquity of trade--a sin against nature and a sin against God. The curse can be lifted only when nature Is vindicated and God is obeyed. The problem will be solved only when the negro is restored to tn bounds of his habitation.' Tt is neither impossible nor imprac- ticable. The elements are willing and the way is in reach. This is not day of impossibilities. The hands of the AL mighty is steadily opening the way. Tt may be that the islands of the seas were placed by Providence in our keeping to furnish an answer to the problem of the time
 | The south is neither cruel nor un- patriotic and the north knows it. The north is neither immovable nor vindica- tive and the south knows it. If either tof us is. mistaken, and if both of us are misunderstood, we are yet one peo- pie. and we must meet upon the plain of our brotherhood and our destiny.
 T appeal for Caucasian unity. I ap- peal for the imperial destiny of our mighty race. This is our country. We made it. We moulded it We control l it, and we always will. We have done great things. We have mighty things yet to do. The negro is an accidental K an unwilling, a blameless, but an un- wholesome, unwelcome, helpless, unas- similable element in our civilization. He is not made for our times. He s not framed to share in the duty and destiny which he perplexes and be- Eclouds. Let us put him kindly and hu- manely out of the way. Let us give him better chance than he has ever had in shistory and let us have done with him. Let us solve his problem frankly, fearlessly, nobly and speedily. Let us put it behind us'

TRoLLEE COMPANY AT FAULT.
Finding Against.he Boston < yyorces-
 cestcr Road

Boston, Sept. SThe Boston and Worcester Street Railroad company is held to be Seriously at fault by the railroad commissioners for the electric ear collision in Shrewsbury on July 25, 1903 in which one person was killed and several received serious injuries. The board in It's report, which was filed to- day, says:
 Inquiry shows the company serious .ly at fault in respect to the manage ment of it's railway. It had adopted q method of car Il ching by Hephones. This system, when properly used, is a safe one, The mistake. as far as the public safety was concerned, was in the failure to provide for it's proper use.
 Tn brief, the investigation of this ac-. cident disclosed ineffective manage ;ment. The remedies for evils of care- less management have been found in the civil liabilities to which it exposes the stockholders.

CRITICAL ILLNESS

E Ot 6eMSFdt 1bttn N1cSFAc 1uss1SsrtAsa
 General Colin M. IngersoIl. who is very i'll at hisS residence, 5S TrunnbulI street, was so low last night that it was feared he might not live twenty four hours. General Ingersoll was taken ill about ten days ago when he took severe cold which developed into grip and then into pneumonia. He was last out of doors the day before he was taken i'll when he took a trolley car ride to Milford. Owing to his advanced age his recovery is considered very doubtful, General Ingersoll being in his eighty-fifth year. His health has not been good for the past year, or sinca the death of his brother, the late ex- Governor Charles R. Ingersoll The public will learn with sincere sorrow of General Ingersoll's critical condition, he having been so long one of New Ha- ven's most distinguished citizens.
 General Ingersoll has been attended for about two weeks past by Dr. Rus- sell during the absence of his family physician, Dr. l.. s. De Forest, who returned yesterday from ten days stay in North Carolina. Dr. De Forest visited him last evening, at which time General Ingersoll was very low.

 Newark, N. J., Sept. 3.--A boiler ex- plosion, which caused a panic for a time in the business center of the town, oc- cured this afternoon in the engine room of the Hanson Van Wrinkle com- :pang, manufacturers and dealers in acids, chemicals and dyest uffs, on Mar ket street. Six men were badly injured as a result of the explosion and damage to the extent of S10000 was done The injured are: Joseph Winter, engineer, scalded; Charles Connolly, scalded; Howard Oliver, injured internally; William .Wicklehouse, terribly scalded, may die; Albert Dixon, scalded and cut face and arms; James Thompson, con- Itused wounds and bruises,
 Winter was a temporary engineer serving in place of the regular engineer. He was blown through partition. The boiler went up through the ceiling. On the floor directly over the boiler room Wieklehouse and Dixon were at work. The floor of this room was cut from the walls almost as though with a. saw, and the wreekage, with the men in it, fell back into the boiler room.

.O41 OF 4 KNOT SHORT.
Cruiser Cieveiand's Failure to Meet the
 Required Speed.

Washington, Sept. S.-The acting sec- retary of the navy has received tele- gram from Captain Train, president of the board of inspection and survey, dat ed at Portland. Me. in regard to the speed trial of the protected cruiser Cleveland. which took place over the New England course Tuesday. He made no reference to any interference with the trial by sailing vessels or oth- erwise, but said that the speed develop ed was 16.459 knots. without tidal cor rections. which. he added, were imma- terial. The contract called for a speed of 1850 knots so the vessel failed to meet that requirement. by .041 of a knot, but it is probable she will be &C., cepted by the government.

FOOLED BY SHAMROCK I.
autte Evident Now That she Had Not
 Improved. :

Glasgow, Sept. 3.The announcement of the Reliance's victory was received here with feeling akin to relief that the long drawn contests were. ended. The most sanguine of the Shamrock's supporters did not exepect the challeng- CT to make more than a fair showing in to-day's race. It is generally admitted that the whole fabric of British hopes was built upon the false assumption that Shamrock I. was a decidedly bet ter boat at the time of this years trial races than when she was beaten by the Columbia off Sandy Hook. Uniform re- gret is expressed at Sir Thomas Lip toms failure after making such per- sistent effort to secure the. Americas cup.

BRITISH COMMENT os RESULT
Now Hoped That Canada win Build . Cnp chaser.

London, Sept. 3The final defeat of Sir Thomas Lipton's cup challenger. Shamrock III. was received in London with absolute listlessness. Most of the afternoon. papers published a special edition announcing the result of the cup race, but the announcement had al- ready been discounted by the dispatches giving the progress of the race. The. consensus of opinion is that Sir Thomas has done everything that time and money could accomplish, and wide spread sympathy for him is shown. The chief hope expressed in the streets is. that Canada will enter the lists next year and possibly succeed where the mother country has failed. It seems improbable that, in view of the failure of Shamrock III, another challenger. will soon be dispatched from England
