Gould and Vanderbilt steam. Yachts
 VIII Contest.
 New York, Sept. s.--W. K. Vanderbilt. Jr., owner of the turbine steam yacht TarantuIa, and Howard Gould. owner of the steam yacht Niagara W. have arr ranged a race for $5.00o side Septem- Der IS, over a course of forty nautical miles on Long Island Sound.
 The regatta committee of the New York Yacht Club has the race in charge, and while carrying out the conditions governing the contest Is endeavoring at the same time to have a rae efor the Niagara " cup presented the New York Yacht Club by MT. Gould one of which Is offered each year for steam or power boats enrolled in the club having a water line of not less than. seventy-five feet ana not greater than 160 feet. The regatta committee has invited General Brayton Ives to enter his twin screw steamer yacht vitess, built this year. and should these three fact yachts meet over the same course for the two prizes-tne $i0,0e0 depending upon the result or the meeting of the Tarantuia and the Niagara W cup between the Tarantuia and the vitesz-the double contest will probably be the most interesting of It's kind ever held. The Gould yacht would not, of course, compete for the prize presented to the club by her owner.
 The Tarantula and Niagara raced last year for a $10,00D stake oyer a course of thirty-nine nautical miles on the sound. The race was won by the Niagara by three minutes and fifty sec onds.

EDITOR WAS MURDERED
FATE OF J. H. THOMPSON OF NEW
 YORK TIMES.
Fcyidence Disclosed at Autopsy UpsetS Theory of Police and Coroner
 That Natural Causes Brought on Victims Death.

New York, Sept s.-A mystery of unusual proportions was today deVel- oped in the circumstances surrounding the death of Jacob H. Thompson, Tor the last forty years an editor on The New York Times, by positive evidence that he was murdered on the nlght or September by a brutal clubbing in prominent hotel situated in one of. the busiest residence and business sections of New York City.
 This fact was disclosed today by the coroner's autopsy. This examination showed that Mir. Thompson had been struck over the head at least dozen times with a blunt instrument ana had been strangled IS well.
 No one has been found who admits having the slightest knowledge of what transpired in the editors room, at the St. James hotel at 109 West 18th Street. from the time he entered 1t early Thursday evening until he was found about o'clock yesterday morn ing by a chambermatd. who told the coroner that she saw him half sitting and making convulsive movements with his hands He was then fully dressed and was wearing riding boots An unfinished letter was lying on his desk as If the writer had just laid down his pen. The mystery is further complicated by the fact that at first reports were sent both to MT. Thomp- son's brother and to the hospital which was telephoned to for aid, that he was only suffering from heart failure.
 The examination in the autopsy to- day completely upset the claims of the police and the coroner that the editor died of apoplexy. Immediately following the autopsy the coroner in- structed the police to work on the case with all possible dispatch.

has room for them because Drs. won Ezdorf and Guiteras are no longer within his Jurisdiction. but are do- ing outside work and reporting direct to General Wyman. While the camps will be closed, the marine hospital service will continue its issuance of health certificates. 1t does not yet appear to be definitely determined that Atlanta is to be permanently closed to New Orleans. but. if it is. local peo- pie who desire to go to other points in the south will use Nashville as their camp of detention, that city being still open.
 Chairman Janvier announced today that the citizens fund had reached s1S5,423.o2 and that the lists will be kept open until the fever is declared over. With the s150.oo0 placed at the disposal of Dr. White by the city and State. the total fund he has had to draw on exceeds s2S5.000, The service is assured that 1t will never be pinch ed for money. no matter how long it's campaign may last.
 Additional nurses were sent to Tal- lulah and Kenner today. Dr. Corput went with two nurses to Kenner, where the emergency hospital Is now receiving patients. Owing to the calls that have been made by the country the supply of nurses has run low. but unless there are further unexpected de- mands. 1t Is probable that the State Board will be able to provide the help that Is needed. There are considerably fewer cases under treatment here now than there were some time back and with further improvement here more nurses will be available for assignment elsewhere.
 Six hundred school children gathered in a public hall today and with Miss Blanchard rehearsed Dixie and the other patriotic songs that are to be sung at the Diamond Festival next Sun day.

ENTERTAINED ENVOYS
LAPS AND RUSSIANS AT HOME OF
 PRESIDENT.
Mir. Roosevelt Extends to the Peace PlcnIpotentiariea His First COuF-
 tesies in an OmclaI
 Capacity.

Oyster Bay. L. l.. Sept. 9.-In enter taining Baron Komura and Minister Takahira at luncheon and M. Witte and Baron de Rosen at dinner tonight President Roosevelt extended to the peace envoys of Japan and Russia his first official courtseles and expressed to them on behalf of the American people gratification that the labors of their mission to America have been per- formed successfully.
 Today's functions were the result of invitations extended by the President when the plenipotentiaries were first received on board the Mayfiower. Baron Komura and Minister Takahira ar rived at Oyster Bay on board the naval yacht SyIph, which had been sent to New York for them. They reached Sagamore Hill at i o'clock this after noon. The Japanese envoys remained with the President for two hours. Luncheon was served at 1:30, the en- voys being entertained by the Presi- dent and Mrs. Roosevelt. There were no other guests.
 During and after the luncheon the President and his guests discussed thorouEhIv the details of the peace ar engagements. Both Baron Komura and Minister Takahira expressed to the President their appreciation of his ef- forts, to which they attributed largely the success of the conference in reach ing an agreement.
 4 few minutes before 3 o'clock the Japanese envoys went aboard the Syiph, which sailed immediately for New York.
 Tonight M. Witte and Baron de Ro- sen, the Russian plenipotentiaries. were the guests of the President and Mrs: Roosevelt at dinner. M. Witte's well understood antipathy to travel by wa ter induced the Russian enVoys to make the trip to Oyster Bay by rail.

BOROUGH UNDERSTANDING

London, Sept. s.---The new Angio- Japanese treaty will be given out carly next week.
 the agreement of 1902. which expired with the successful termination of the peace negotiations between Russia and Japan, it being expressly stated that should the date of expiration arrive while either party was engaged in war 1t ahonld be continued until peace was concluded. the new treaty is under stood not to be much longer than tho old and the increase in the number of articles therein is partly due to the changed conditions in Korea.
 In the old agreement the provision respecting China and Korea was coff- tained in the first clause, while m the new treaty, 1t is believed the undertak~ ing with regard to these kingdoms oc- cupy separate clauses. This is neces- sary in order to give Japan a free hand in Korea.
 The open door here is guaranteed and the right of all nations are recoK~ mixed in much the same way as in the Russo Japanese peace treaty, wasich probably accounts for Japan's ready acauiescence to M. Witte's request that Japan modify her original demands ra~ garding control of the Hermit King dom.
 Likewise the open door in China ls assured, and while taking every pre- caution to safeguard the interests of the contracting parties. it is believed the agreement contains nothing which in any way intexferes with the axint- ing rights of other powers, but is un- derstood to be framed to prevent at- tempts looking to the partition Of China.
 Clauses and 8 of the old treaty. covering the conditions under whlch either ally comes to the asslssanee nk the other when attacked by any two powers when the Far Eastern interests of the alIies are affected, are under stood to be completely changed se aN to bring one ally to the assistance Qx | the other even if attacked hx ere power. Tn thin respect 1t is especially | Interesting to Europe ag applicaple fQ all of Aaias up Go the line croHalnN north and south through Persia, aE in- dicated by the SIst degree Of Iongitudes which brings India within the scope ul this significant extension of the agfee- merat.
 The clauses of the old treaty provid- ing that neither ally shall enter Into an agreement with other powers wltn~ out consulting the other and that whenever their interests are jeopard- ized the two countries shaif consult freely and frankly will undoubtedly be retained, though they will probably be somewhat broadened.
 The greateat interests in London. of course, attaches to that portion of the treaty affecting India and the pubilca- ton of the full text is awaited with some anxiety, which fs heightened by the absolute secrecy maintained In all oficial circles regarding 1t.
