ENGLISH DESIGNERS WORKING.

New York Jan. 20.-According TO re-
ports from the other side OF the Atlantic.
both Designers Fife and Watson are at
work on plans for boats for races for
the Americas cup. They have made care
ful studies of the new rule of measure
ment OF the New York Yacht club and
are finding out what kind OF boat will be
best suited 10 the rule. There is feel
ing among yachtsmen there that the New
York Yacht club will agree to accept a
challenge under the present rules Of that
club. aud so Fife and Watson are at
work early.
They have many problems 10 solve.

This rule OF the New York Yacht club
is a Herreshof rule. but the committee OF
the club that framed II got the views OF
all the best known designers in the world
before II was finally adopted by the club.
Although the formula is different from
mat used by English clubs. the workings
OF the rule produce much the same type
OF boat, 80 that English designers will
not be handicapped at all in trying 10 pro-

NEGRO IS KILLED
 BY AN EXPLOSION
TWO WHITE MEN AND. TWO NE eRoEs INJURED BY DYNAMITE AT sTINkINc cREEk-RRoueHT TO BIRMINGHAM.

In a premature explosion of dynamite at stinking creek. about fifteen miles from Birmingham. yesterday at noon, one negro was killed instantly, and two white men and two negroes seriously wounded
 The dead negro was named Joe Gorge lieun. the two white men injured were Sam Taylor and Will Henry. It was not possible to learn the names of the negroes injured.
 The wounded and dead were brought to Birmingham this morning in ambulances sent from Birmingham. They were re- ported at Avondale about o'clock en route to the Hillman hospital. where ac- commodations had been engaged.
 The explosion occurred on the work be- ing done by for the Seaboard Air Line Line railroad by w. J. Howard & Co.,, contractors. It seems that a hole had been charged with blasting powder and dynamite and exploded prematurely.
 Corzeliun's head was blown completely on his body, and one of the white men suffered several fractures of bones in his body. The other man was badly injured and also had some broken bones. Four ambulances were sent from Birmingham about o'clock last night, and physici- ans accompanied them. Physicians at Irondale and in that neighborhood att tended the wounded.
