CONTESTANTS FIGHT Aggressive Delegation from Cook County Arrives in
 Denver. ENEMIES OF SULLIVAN Continuation of Bitter Five-Years' War--Bryan's Friend Wants Boss Place.

Denver, Col, July 5,-The most ag- gressive and apparently determined delegation that has yet appeared in Denver are the twenty-two contestine representatives of Cook county who arrived from Illinois on special traifi at II o'clock this morning. With the delegation came 15O representa- tlves of the Cook county democracy of Chicago, the big democratic organ ization of that city headed by band of 40 pieces. Forming In column at the depot at the foot of 17th street, the delegation marched for an hour through the principal streets with the band playing patriotic airs and the delegates singing campaign songs, cheering for Bryan and waving flags and banners.
 The delegation arrived at their headquarters at the Albany hotel, formed a group in the street in front of the hotel and gave vent to their enthusiasm in songs and cheers. In the lobby of the hotel Judge William Prentiss of Chicago, one of the con testing delegates, and the man who 1 will make the principal fight for the delegation before the national com mittee and the credentials committee addressed a crowd which completely filled the lobby and corridors of the hotel and spread far out into the street.
 We are here" said Judge Prentiss in his speech. ''as the true democrats of Illinois, We are here In the interest of justice and fair play which has beer denied us In Chicago. We are here fol | William Jennings Bryan, and we are the only properly accredited delegation | from Chicago to this convention which does represent him and what he stands for. We are his real friends and mol pretended ones as some others are. We come to present our case to the na. tional committee and sotlsfy them we are genuine democrats of Illinois, and can carry that state for Bryan next I
 November"
 The contestIng delegation claims twenty-two seats in the national con. vention. two of which are seats of de- legates at large. All of the contes. ted districts are in Cook county. The contests are directed against the Roger c. Sullivan faction and Is q continual ton of the bitter fight that has been raging in Chicago for nearly five years The fight centers about the place fol national committeeman from Illinois now held by Sullivan. If the contest. ing delegation is seated Sullivan will be turned down for reelection and Willard F. Dunlop, banker of Jack sonville and close friend of w ]. Bry an. will be chosen for the place.
 Legal briefs setting forth the claims of the contestants have been preparet and will be presented to the nationa committee.

Ex- x-Commodorc F. r. Cole at the Helm of MInosa II. in Saturdays Race.

By far the most successful regatta ever held by the New Haven Yacht club was that oi Saturday Tn addl- ton to the fleet of yachts belonging to the New Haven club there were a score or more yachts belonging to the Sachems Head and the Hartford Yacht clubs here competing. The weather was excellent. Dark clouds hung over head for periods during the day, but the rain held up until long after the races were finished. The steamer John H. Starin served as a committee Loat, and carried about 300 members of the chb and their families and friends. The starin followed the yachts over the course and came back to the fn- ish mark In time to give all on board an opportunity to see the finish of the races. Altogether it was most en- joyable day for the yachtsmen sail ing the racing yachts and for those on board the starn.
 Great interest was manifested in the race between Commouore Parmelee's Rosaie and ex-Commodore F F. Coles Mimosa II. Mimosa II was vic torlous, beating Rosalie by good margin.
 Another race that was interesting was that for the power boats There were seven entries In this class and Charles E. Laren's Spray was the win ner. The gunboat lMachias had an en- try in the race, too It finished last.
 William S Pardees 15-footer was again winner over the boats in her own class. James M. Coxeter's Cas- tanea, Cape Cod cat, and one of the old racing boats in this vicinity beai out Frisky and got a cup.
 Tn class \, for large knockabouts the Oriole, c. A. Goodwin's yacht, of the Hartford Yacht club, was the win ner and in class Q, Capt John J Phelps Klttywnk, of the Saehems Head Yacht club, was the winner Cock Robin sailed without competition
 The bigger boats sailed over course | 22 miles long, from Morris Cove to tht Housatonic river and return Tht power boats went over a course il l.. miles long, from the Cove to the rec buoy, off Pond Point, and return.
 The 15-footers and the cat boats wen over a course lnsisde the harbor.
 The races for Class E, for whicf there were three entries, did not com' off because the yachts that were tC compete did not get here In time tC make the start.

Each pitcher struck out fourteen men and each was remarkably steady, con- sidering the conditions, Lahtte waver- ing the most, hitting two batsmen and passing two. Crockett gave three Jersey City players free passes to first The battery work was well sup ported by the fielders, Newark's men erring but three times and Jersey City's four The game lasted three hours and forty minutes The score:
