AMERICAN YACHT WINS
 THIRD RACE OF SERIES
VIM FIRST IN CONTEST TESTER DAY FOR THE ROOSE-
 YELT CUP

Victory for New York Boat Made Cer-
 tain A Mile and Half From the
 Finish by the withdrawal of the Aux
 Latter Quits Because She FOuled
 yim--Tilly VI, the German Boat, the
 Second to the Finish.
 Marblehead, Mass, Sept. 6.-To-day s race, the third of the series between German and American yachts for the Roosevelt cup, was won by the Vim, owned by Commodore Park of the American Yacht club of New York, The Vim was the winner of yesterday s race, the second of the series. The vic- tory of the New York boat to-day was made certain mile and a half from the finish by the withdrawal of the Aux, owned by Charles Francis Adams, 2d. of Boston, and the winner of the first race of the series. The Aux with drew because she fouled the Vim. The action of her owner in voluntarily sur rendering his opportunity of taking the race was generally hailed as a most conspicuous sportsmanlike act, The withdrawal obvlated the usual con- ttest over protest.
 The lilly VI (German) was the sec- ond boat to finish but protest was entered against her by the Wannsee (German) because of a foul which, 1t was alleged, took place on the line just as the boats started. The matter was taken up by the race committee and a decision will be announced Saturday. The Caramba (American) was the third beat across the line, five minutes and forty seconds behind the lilly. Next came thte Wannsee, fifty-one second behind the Caramba, while the German yacht Glueckauf brought up the rear nearly two minutes astern of the Wannsee.
 The race to-day was practically a contest between the American boat Vim and Aux, and it has been many a day since the spectators witnessed a yacht race as closely and cleverly con tested. On account of the withdrawal pf the Aux there was no way of ascer- taining which of the two would have won the race.

KING NOT A CANDIDATE
VILE NOT RUN FOR LIEUTEN.
 ANT GOTERNORSHTP.

Frank B. Weeks the Only Other Candi-
 date in the Field--Expected to Garry
 NIiddIesex and New Haven Countless
 Senator Lake Claims 80 of the 1O4
 Delegates in Hartford County.
 Hartford, Sept. 6.-It was definitely stated in political cilcles to-day that Attorney General King would not be a candidate for lieutenant governor be- fore the convention next week against Senator Lake.
 In view of his declination it is stated with authority that the anti-Lake lead CTS will probably not make any further efforts to get candidate to run against Senator Lake.
 Frank B, Weeks, therefore, will be the only other candidate in the field. He is expected to carry Middlesex and New Haven counties, which make up the Second congressional district, part of Holland county. A good share of the Hartford county delegation and some delegates from Litchfeld and Windbam counties. Senator Lake claims 80 of the 1O4 delegates in Hartford county Ii of Fairfield and New London counties, and the rest of the state which do not go to Weeks. It is conceded that at the pres ent time Senator Lake has a lead in delegates and it would appear that he will carry the convention for the non- nation without trouble.

BETTING NOW EVEN ON RACE
HARVARD AN EQUAL FAVORITE
 WITH CAMBRTDGE.

Little to Choose Between the Crews
 Americans Have Improved Consider
 abIy In the Matter of Starting but in
 Other Respects Appear Little Diff
 ferent in Style Than a Few Days Ago.
 Putney, Eng, Sept. (. T It was in every way a record crowd, especially in the matter of the number of American visitors, that was seen OH the river to- day, testifying to the increasing inter- est in Saturdays contest between the Cambridge and Harvard university crews. Muttlebury, Escombe, Lehman and Goldie and many other famous scullers followed the practice from a launch.
 The crews show unabated confidence which, Judging from their practice dis plays, is well justified from both sides. There is so little to choose that betting tonight again has become even, as Harvard has improved considerably in the matter of starting, but in other re spects appears little different in style from a few days ago, Dr, Thomas Man. ahan says they could not be in better condition
 Cambridge showed to-day the fines style, breaking from 20 to the racing pace of 36 strokes to the minute Theil tactics evidently will be devoted to al attempt by hot work to wear dowr their opponents the first mile.
 The weath has become less settled much cooler and somewhat cloudy tht last few days.
 London, Sept, 7.--"I plump whole. heartedly for Harvard" writes viviar Nickalls, the well-known oarsman, tc the Daily Mail this morning. My req. son for doing so is that because I con. slider that in nearly all their trials the Americans have shown more speed ant staying power than their rivals" MT. Nickalls expresses the opinior that the leg work of Harvard will bring victory. There is likely to be rougf water, MT. Nickalls says, and he pre-. fers the Americans to the Englishmer on a disturbed surface.
