impelled by animate vibrant engines

remained there, whirling, tossing tails
In air, rolling over and over. The long
slender fish had pierced the other, and
the terrific efforts on the part OF the
fish were to unsheath the sword, which
was only accomplished after a strug-
gle for several minutes.
Then both fishes shot away, then
again came together, giving mighty
side blows, and then out Of the red
stained water one broke and fed.
The writer found the largest Of these
fishes a few days later on the sand,
where 1t had been washed or thrown
by the waves. Four or five deep
wounds marked the body.
In one rush the sword had entered

for defeat was evident in its sword,
which was splintered and broken

F4VORS AMERICANS.
President Willing to Pay Them
$500, 900 More for Carrying Coal.
TFom The Tribune Bureau 7


Washington. Sept 26-The President. after
on the subject of shipping coal to the Pacific
Coast for the use of the feet, announced to-day
that while he regarded the Navy Department
as fully warranted under the law in employing
foreign vessels for this purpose provided the cost
OF transportation in American bottoms was
extortfonate or even unreasonable, he would not
regard 100000 excessive to pay over
the sake of employing American ships.
AS the bids already submitted can with pos
siby slight adjustment be brought within
this 1t is regarded as practically settled
that the American ship owners get the bust
ness provided of course, they show disposition
TO be accommodating
It is probable that they will be asked make
some arrangements whereby the department viii
be insured against an expense in excess of ap-
proximately s4S0000 for the transportation Of
the forty thousand tons of coal TO be shipped TO
San Francisco. which, as told in these dispatches
TO this mornings Tribune. is just 100000 in
excess of the estimated aggregate cost for ship
ment in foreign vessels.
Admiral Cowles chief of the bureau of equip
ment which has the matter in charge, has left
the city TO be gone until Saturday, when it is
expected that final decision will be rendered.
The view is entertained III navy circles that the
Presidents attitude toward the American ship
owners is one of great generosity, and that it
will be entirely their own fault if they do not
secure the business.

Continuing, Mr. HiIliard declared that the late

with particular emphasis that continuation of

Mr.. Hilliard said he thought that a most hope

Club Of element of fine young sportsmen. He
had reason to know the views of these men, and
was convinced that they would not be satisfied
to have the Americas Cup kept in a safe de

could get. He believed that sooner later the
views of these men would prevail and that the

race with a fair sporting prospect of success.
Speaking on the same subject Alfred MyIne
the yacht designer. said his chief regret in
Witnessing the desire throw the challenge
back on the old rule which discredted
for the Americas Cup for ordinary yachting
Mr. Mylne said he shared the belief of all other
British designers that further racing under the

its operation meant the death of international
contests The money spent on the Shamrocks
and the Reliance was worse than wasted he
added for. whether they were successes or fall
