THAT ATHLETIC MEET.
The Pick of the Worlds Best Men
 Will Be in Waterbury.

As. the time draws near for the big athletic meet given under the auspices of the Hibernians of this city. the interest is rapidly increas- ing. Mammoth will be the event in every particular. No meeting in any city in New England ever even thought of bringing so many stars at one time. To the already big galaxy has been added another, Matt Mo- Grath, who has broken the hammer throw record on several occasions, but who has been disqualified be- cause of some technicality on each occasion. Down in New Haven he threw. the hammer 174 feet. On the coming occasion in this city every thing will be arranged for him to make new world record and this time all the A. A. U. rules will be complied with. Then we will have another star in the person of Melvin Shepherd, who only the other day trimmed the speedy Taylor. He will also try for record at the 300 yard mark. Sheridan. Shepherd, Mo- Grath, O'Connell, Daily, Rourke, Hor- gan and many others, what a bunch of world beaters will be here. They are coming from the following ath- -letic clubs alone in New York: Xav- fer. Pastime, N. Y. A. c. and the Irish American.

OUT OF PUBLIC EYE.
Daughter of John D. Rockefeller De-
 fends Him.

CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-Another chap. ter was added to the mystery surround ing the whereabouts of William A. Rockefeller, father of John D.. William and Frank Rockefeller, when Mrs. Harold Fowler Mccormick, daughter of John D. Rockefeller, in an inter- view here defended her father against the criticism of Frank Rockefeller, who charged that the president of the Standard oil company had maliciously wrecked his business career.
 "Jealousy,r said Mrs. Mccormick, brought about by my uncle's signal lack of business ability. is the cause of the vituperation he has heaped upon my father.
 My father holds no malice against him. It may not be consistent with the usual picture drawn of my father, but he holds malice against no man.
 My uncle's failure to profit by the fortune of my father and his repeated failures in business have been worm wood and gall to him. The bitterness has grown from year to year. It has taken for its objective point the broth CT who has prospered."
 Mrs. Mccormick declares 1t is true that her grandfather is alive.
 Between my father and my grand father" she says, there always exist ed the respect and love which should prevail between father and son. My grandfather watched with the keenest interest the successes of his son."
 Mrs. Mccormick added that her grandfather's health was responsible in a large degree for his being out of the public eye.
 In the interview with Frank Rocke- feiler, the authenticity of which he has denied. he was quoted as saying that he had written the life of his brother and that when the time came to make 1t public 1t would not be safe for the head of the Standard OH company to appear on the streets of any American clty.
 Frank Rockefeller Is also alleged to have said to the interviewer:
 "Go ask John D. Rockefeller where his father is. Tell him that sent you and that dare him to answer"

CANADA CUP RACES
Seneca Outsails Challenger
 Adele Of Rochester.
SECOND VICTORY FOR OUR FLYER.
One More Win For the American Yacht VIII Anchor Cup on This Side of Line For An-
 other Year.


 ROCHESTER, N. T., Aug. 13.-Skip- per Hanan and his crew of the de- fender, the Seneca. drove another rlyet into the fastenings that hold the Can adds cup at the Rochester Yacht club house by sending the Seneca over the finish line about mile ahead of the Adele the Canadian challenger.
 It was the second of the series, and both have gone to the Yankee defend ers-on Saturday in light breeze that finally died down to complete calm and yesterday in winds that varied from eight to twelve miles an hour.
 The yachts jockeyed for half an hour near the starting line while the buoys were being placed, and when the whistle was sounded both were throwing spray on the imaginary line. Jarvis, the Canadian skipper, again got the windward position. and the timers caught the challenger going past the line at 11:3O. Five seconds later Hanan and the Seneca flashed over, and they were off for nine mile frolic before the wind.
 Almost straight out into the lake they went. The Adele seemed to real ixe she was sailing toward home and was daring the ssneca to catch her before she could get there. The dare was accepted, and they rushed away 30 fast that the sailing craft in the fleet, although some of them are speedy. seemed to be dragging anchors. and even the steamer that carried the judges and the patrol boats had to keep chug-chugging to stay along near the racers.
 The Seneca gradually crept up and finally passed the challenger, but it was a merry race, with odds for none, and when they made ready to turn the mark Jarvis obtained the windward place, and slowly the large sail of the Adele carried her past the Herreshoff boat.
 They rounded the stake boat, the Adele at 1:05:21 and the Seneca at 1O5:36. The Seneca was pointed to- ward the land of Uncle Sam, and 1t was the Canadians turn to play tag with the defender. Some trouble was experienced with the sails on the Adele, and her crew was kept busy getting her canvas out of the water. When her big sail caught the wind squarely she raced like hawk, but when 1t got in trouble she dropped back very perceptibly. The Seneca made the water fly faster as she near ed the finish. but struck Hull when about halfway home, and the Adele almost overlook her. But 1t was the Seneca 'all the way" on the last half ot the run home, and she gradually widened the gap from 300 yards to half mile, and when she crossed she had a lead of mile. The official time was at the finish: Seneca. 2:51:16: Adele, 2:56:58.
 The third of the series will be sailed over triangular course. If the Seneca wins there will be no further races and the Canada's cup will remain on this side of the lake.

HOME OF THE BUREAU
 AMERICAN REPUBLICS
A Million Dollar Building in Washing ton for International Headquarters, Founded by Pan American Confer ence.

Washington. D. C.. Aug. 31: The new building of the International Bu- reau of American Republics will be all the world. It will serve as the in ternational headquarters or offices in one national capital of twenty-one diff ferent American nations. The nearest approach to it will be the new Temple of Peace now being erected at The Hague. The cost of this Pan-Ameri- can structure, when it is fully com pleted and ready for occupancy, will be nearly s1.00O. 900 of which Mir. Andrew Carnegie generously contributed $780, 900. and the different American na- tions approximately S250,000.
 The revised drawings of the arch itects here shown have just been ap- proved by the United States Secretary of State. Elihu Root. chairman of the governing board of the bureau, and John Barrett. the director and chief administrative officer. after having been originally selected from the larg- est architectural competition in the history of Washington. in which 13O leading North American architects en- tered. The winners in this contest were Albert Kelsey and Paul P. Cret, associate architects, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
 This imposii national building will stand on one of the most attractive and commanding 'ites of ground in the national capital. commonly known as

favor of the reorganization of the bu reau and outlined a plan to make it a world-recognized institution for the promotion of both commerce and com ity.
 The bureau is strictly an internation- al and independent organization, sub ordinate to no department of the Unit cd States government. and maintained by the joint contributions. based on population. ot the twenty-one Ameri- can governments. Its affairs are under the administration of a chief officer. called director, who is elected by the governing board of the bureau, con sisting of the diplomatic representa- tives in Washington of the Latin American governements. presided over by the secretary of state of the United States. The present director is John Barrett. former United States minister to Colubia, Panama, Argentina. and Siam. The secratary of the bureau is Dr. Francisco J. Yanes. an eminent Latin-American scholar. Since the new administration took charge of its af fairs. the correspondence of the bureau has quadrupled while the demand for it's printed publications has tripled. Its practical use is demonstrated by the fact that during the last six months it has developed business that has ad- ded at least $15OO0.00O to the value of Pan-American foreign commerce. Its present object. in short. is not only to advance commerce and trade, but to strengthen comity and friendship among all the republics of the western hemisphere.
