New York. Sept s6.-Sir Thomas

the Americas cup in 1905 was declined
by the New York Yacht club Sir
Thomas asked for a race Of slOops I'M
der the 6S.fO0t rating. and the mem
bers Of the club based their refusal
to race on the general proposition that
the Americas cup represents a trophy
for the speedicst type OF yacht that
can be produced on water-line length
Of 30 feet or under. and that. therefore.
any proposition TO limit the size OF
the boat must be refused.
The members of the Nex York
Yacht club at the meeting called &c
consider Sir Thomas fourth challenge

reject the challenge. after Lewis Cass

club. made n speech. in which he de

contests as drawn up by George l..
schuyler in 1857. Mr.. Ledyard then
presented a resolution declaring that

therefore slower boats were out OF the
question. Mr.. Ledyard made the only

The Most LaWIess Country.

In a paper published and sane
toned by the American Academy
OF Polltlcl Science Prof. James W.
Garner Of the University of Hi
nols declares that the people of
the United States stands before
the civilized nations as the most
lawless in the world. Prof. Garner
produces a table showing that
homicides are now ranging around
5000 a year with only 116 legal
executions for 1904, the latest
year included in his statistics.
The United States having 112
homicides to each million popula-
ton as against five ir Germany.
ten IN England and Wales, twelve
III Canada, and 10 1-2 in France.
Chicago, with a third the popula-
ton of London, has eight times as
many murders. Of our host of
man-slayers we only manage to
execute 116 (including negroes)
i'll 1904, scoring practically no ad-
vance upon twenty years ago.
when killings were but one-ffth
as many. AS is notorious, though
Prof. Garner seems to have no sa-
tistics on this point nothing what
ever is done with the vast majority
of slayers. Murders are acquitted
and lionized upon pleas which
would not be tolerated for a NOM
ent in the courts o fany other ooun-
try. L%ynching increases at a great
rate. The country is more lawless
each year than it has ever been
before. Prof. Garner only spoke
the simple truth when he assigned
US our bad eminence. Is it not
time that the American people,
if only from sense of shame, were
opening their eyes wide to this
evil?-Charlotte Observer.
