Because John Garris. an old soldier, took
some clothes which he had bought for
Rachael Lee and Rachael Johnson both

that the two Rachaels were before judge

Merchants Elated.

Baltimore gain merchants are much
elated over the new line. as it promises
greater vessel room for Antwerp, where
much grain is shipped at times. 1t will
also tend to an enlargement of the city's
trade with this thriving European seaport,
which should result in the commercial ad-
vantage of this city.
The Atlantic Transport Company 1t is
known. is now a pat of the International
Mercantile Marine Corporation, formed
some years ago through the Instrumental
ity of Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan and num-
Der of English steamship owners. Prior
to that the stock of the local company was
practically controlled here. Mr.. Bernard
N Baker was the president and perhaps
the largest individual stakeholder. The
company's local office has always been
fully kept up to its standard under the
able management of Mr.. James c. Cor
man, who grew up with it almost from
boyhood. and has supervision of all its

CINCINNATI, Ohio, September 13.-Rep-
resentatye Nicholas Longworth is to be

NEW YORK IS AGREEABLE.
Yachtsmen Had Been Looking for a
Challenge,

NEW YORK, September 13.-The news
from London that Sir Thomas Upton, in
the name Of teh Royal Irish Yacht Club,
ica's cup did not cause any surprise among
yachtsmen in this city. Members of the
New York Yacht Club, the present holder
of the famous old cup, long have been
looking forward to another challenge from
Sir Thomas. While they had no official in
timation of the English yachtsman's in
tentions, 1t was generally believed that the
end of the present racing season would wit
ness the issuance of the challenge. 1t has
been openly asserted that the New York
Yacht Club would not entertain any con-
ditional challenge, nor would 1t consent
to the alteration Of the deed of gift goy-
erning the cup in any way.
Under the deed of gift. however 1t is per-
fectly possible to arrange for any conditions
mutually desired by the challenging and
defending clubs without any alteration of
the deed whatever but such conditions are
a matter of negotiation after the challenge
is made and accepted.
The new measurement rule. which will
apply in connection with the present chal-
yachts of the larger class this summer 1t
is especially designed to overcome the de-
fectS in the old rule which made possible
the freak racing machines such as the more
recent cup defenders and challengers. If
the races foreshadowed in Sir Thomas
challenge are sailed under the new rule,
the contesting yachts will be normal sea-
worthy boats and not creations to be sent
to the junk heap when they have fulfilled
their original purpose.

LONDON, September l3, Cos p.m.-Slr
Thomas Upton will make another attempt
In 1908 to regain the Americas cup for
Great Britain. The announcement was
made this afternoon by Sir Thomas in
London, and by the secretary of the Royal
irish Yacht Club at Dublin. The challenge
which goes to the New York Yacht Club
in the name Of the Royal Irish Yacht Club
was mailed from Dublin today. 1t prob
ably will be taken to New York by the
American line steamer St. Paul, which
leaves southampton tomorrow
The details of the challenge We're ar
ranged when Sir Thomas visited Dublin
recently in the course of a yachting cruise
around the British Isles on board the Erin
He told friend months ago of his inten-
ton to challenge. but, having until the end
of September to take action. he deferred
challenging until the eleventh hour not
being desirous Of giving the American
yachtSmen more time than necessary to
make preparations for defending the cup,
they having, it is claimed, great advan-
tage in it being necessary for the chal-
longing yacht to cross the Atlantic.
1t is not known why Sir Thomas decided
to challenge through the Royal Irish Yacht
Club instead of the Royal Ulster Yacht
Club, which issued the previous challenges
in his behalf, unless it is that he thinks
that change Of luck may follow his
change of clubs
