 General Phelps Montgomery's Sea-
 wanhaka, Frances, won silver cup down at the sachem's Head races Mon day The Frances was sailed by that redoubtable sailing master, Captain c. w, Rawson, who led the fleet until a squall came up and then, with just the
 right slant of wind, the Tiddlewink of the Sachem's Head fleet forged ahead and beat the fleet of seven over the line, coming in twenty-two seconds
 ahead of the Frances, and getting first
 prize. The Frances captured second prize trophy cup. Fred Catlin's Ka-
 tona, of New Haven, was third, and M.
 R. Durham's Bretona, of New Haven,
 fourth.
 Tn the raceabout class, the Peggy, Vice Commodore Pierre Tyler of the
 New Haven club won. It was a fine race and was for thirteen miles, three times around a course off Sachem's Head.
 The local regatta committee has not yet decided the protest by Captain c.
 W. Rawson in Saturdays race. He claims that there was a mistake in making the start, by which he was han dicapped over minute, else the Fran ces would have won the pennant in- stead of Bretona.

AUTO WAS WRECKED.
Captain Magnus Manson and Several
 Ladies Thrown Out.

IduleS IHTOWH OuI.
 Branford, Sept. Yesterday noon there was serious automobile mix-up at Plantsville, in which one car was disabled and another damaged consid- erably. Captain Magnus Manson and party were coming from New Haven. Going the other way were two cars. The first was a White steamer and the other -Duryea.
 Just after passing under the bridge the Stevens-D -Duryea machine. which was driven by MT. Bishop, of Norwich, attempted to pass the steamer. They were going at a fast rate and raising a big dust.
 Just at this time Captain Manson s car appeared. He saw there was not room to pass and attempted to turn toward the Short Beach road. MT. Bishop had the same idea, and the cars came together, the Manson car striking the rear wheel of the other. Captain Manson and the ladies were thrown out and the glass in the goggles which Mr. Manson was wearing was broken and cut his face. The Bishop car was wrecked, but the Manson car was able to proceed to Pine Orchard
 The spot where the accident occurred is one of the bad places on the main road, and it has been suggested that signs be placed at each end of the curve warning auto drivers to proceed with caution.
