the changes which have through necessity oc-

the creation of this national pantheon not that
1t should give added lustre to great names,

its public inscription and enshrinement of those

TIE AUTOMOBILE RACE.

When one compares the result of the second
race for the Vanderbilt Cup with that of the
first he is impressed with the remarkable in
crease in speed which was exhibited yesterday
Heath last year ran 283 miles-about one-third
of the distance between New York and Chica go
in five hours and half, his average being not
far from 51.5 miles an hour. Hemery performed
the same feat in 4 hours and SO minutes. so
that he travelled at the rate of Gil miles an
hour.
The gain is the more surprising in view of
the fact that this years winner had machine
which in one particular was inferior to that
with which the honors We're carried off last
year Hemerys engine was rated at so horse
power and Heath's at 90. Though five Of
Heath's rivals in 1904 had machines of the same
nominal capacity, none of his competitors en-
joyed any advantage in the matter of power
Several of the machines which took part in yes
terday's race were capable of developing 100 or
40 horsepower, but none Of them was able to
keep up with Hemery's. A good deal besides
mechanism is involved in these contests. Nerve.
skill and experience are as important as machin-
ery-perhaps more so.
Brilliant as was yesterdays achievement in
some respects it does not justify much enthusi-
asm. A race in which automobiles participate
has less to commend it rhan one between horses
or yachts. Neither of the latter interfere with
anybody's rights or call for the exclusion from
highway of those who have prior right to its
use. Nor is that the worst feature of such con-
tests. Participation in and preparation for them
combine to develop a reckless disregard for
ones own and others safety and to stimulate
disregard for law not only on racing DAYS.
but on every other day of the year Their moral
effect is far from being wholesome

even in winter, when the heaviest storms OF
the year prevail Though the weather has oc-
casionally proved tempestuOus in the last few
weeks, the conditions on the Atlantic have not
yet warranted especially unpleasant antcipa-
tons. Indeed, the accident does not appear to
have been attributable solely to the violence of
the gale which the Campania encountered 1t

HERERos PROBABLY BEATEN.
End of Uprising With Practical An
nihilation of Tribe.

Special Cablegram The Star
BERLIN, December 30.-The surrender OF
the Withos upon the death of their leader,
Hendrick Witboi. and the prospective nego-
tiations between the new governor of
southwest Africa, Herr Vonlindequist and
the Hottentots. mark, in all probability,
the ultimate stages of the uprising The
latest parliamentary report the subject
states that the northern regions of the COL
ony have been cleared of insurgents and
that the campaign against the Hereros has
come to an end with the practical annihla-
tfon of the tribe.
Of a community numbering from 60 900 to
S0,00O or even 10000 souls 1t is only pos
sible to account for 1875 under supervision
in British territory, In addition to the 2,O54
men and 5,O1S women and children who are
prisoners in German hands. Apart from a
few scattered predatory bands, the bulk of
the tribe has periShed in the Omaheke
desert, since the number killed in action
has always been relatively small.
In the south of the colony the situation
has been materially improved by the sur
render of the Witbois. but so long as any
of the leaders remain at large the opera
tions must continue to be pressed with
vigor. Moreover, the final settlement of
the country will necesstate the mainte-
nance of considerable body of troops in
the various districts for some time to come,
especially in order to cope with the guerilla
bands which infest the frontier regions.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. December 30Tammany
leaders today gri?nly declined to discuss the
mayors appointments and their bearing on
the organization except in one or two In
stances to utter stereotyped expressions of
satisfaction. which were belied by their
manner of saying them.
AS a matter of fact the Tammany or
ganization is torn wide open from one end
to the other, and it said on authority
that the days of Chas +. Murphy's leader
ship are nearing the end.
The merest glance at the list of appoint
ments was enough to convince the leaders
that Mcclellan and Murphy had reached
the parting of the ways and, realizing that
Murphy's power had passed, groups began
to get together and plan for the reorgan1-
zation of Tammany and the elimination or
Murphy.
1t will be many days, perhaps weeks, be-
fore the combina ton gets its bearings suf-
ficiently to do anything in the open to this
end, but, lacking the backing of the mayor
and with knowledge of this condition
