VANITIE MAY BE DELAYED
Yacht May Not Start for Sound
Before Las of Month.

Boston, May $50 much work remains
TO be done on the cup candidate Nanitie
that some Of the officials at the yard of
the builders were doubtful to-day whether
the yacht would start for Long Island
Sound before the last OF the month. The
first of the preliminary races is scheduled
for June 2.
The deck Of the yacht has not been
completed. The winches for handling the
halyards and sheets are yet to be in
stalled, and the mast will not be ready
for stepping before the middle of next
week
Ii was intended TO have the yacht
partly rugged at the yard, leaving the
singing Of the boom and gan and the
bending of the sails for the riggers at
City Island. but the arrival here of a suit
of sails has led to the belief that the
Vanitie may have her first trial off Boston
Light rather than in upper Long Island
Sound.

Reports OF last years races indicated
that the Maple Leaf ", winner. made a,

statute miles an hour. BY the same re.
ports Il appeared that the Ankle Deep,
one of the American contestants FOR the
cup, made a speed OF nearly forty-ays
knots. or something more than hfty-ons
statute miles, speed which she never
attained in American waters. Notwith.
standing the Confederation Of the recon!
by the engineers who laid out the course
last year. il is the opinion Of many motor
boat experts i'm this country that the
figures representing the knots should
have really represented miles.
Assuming this to be true, the speed
made by the Ankle Deep would almost
exactly correspond with her best record
in America. Experts in motor boat rae.
ing here agree that any boat which Is
good for fifty statute miles is good
enough to be sent to England as one Of
the American team to contest for thu

II more than three suitable candidates
are discovered in the two eliminatioa
races there may be other trials IN order

MANN INTRODUCES
TARIFF BOARD BILL
The Measure Provides For a
= Body Of Five.

Washington, Dec. 30.-Represent
tive Mann, of Illinois, Republican
leader in the house, started the Re
publican campaign for tariff reform in
1916, when he introduced in the house
when congress met after the Christ
mas recess a bill creating a tariff
commission.
The measure, which will have the
support of practically all Republicans
in congress, provides for a board OF
five members.
The board is empowered to make
inquiries and report to congress on
the subject of revenue laws. One OF
the five members of the board is to
be chosen by the president and the
other four are to be named by the
senate finance committee and the
ways and means committee of the
house, each party representation on
these committees to name one mem.
Der. Each member will be paid a sal.
airy of $4,000 a year. The bill also
provides for secretary, who shall be
paid $4,000 year.
The bill instructs the board to
make inquiries to determine the diff
ferences ID the cost of labor and the
cost of raw material in the United
States and foreign countries and to
report the results as they may be
called for by the president or either
house of congress.
The board, which is to be an indie
pendent body, is empowered to sum-
mon witnesses and to enforce the
production of books and papers. The
bill provides that the board shall not
disclose to the public business secrets
communicated by any individual, firm,
corporation or partnership

WILSON SAYS BRITAIN
MUST PAY SHIPPERS
Vigorously Demands Protection
For u s Commerce,

Washington, Dec. 80. - President
Wilson, referring to the note sent by
the United States government to
Great Britain, insisting on better
treatment for American commerce,
declared that large damages would
eventually have to be paid by Eng
land for the unlawful detention OF
American cargoes.
He pointed out that many protests
previously had been sent in specific
cases, and that if the contention of
the American government were cor
rect, as he was firmly convinced it
was, plans for indemnification ulti-
mately would have to be met by Great
Britain.
Supplementary to previous protests
the new note, President Wilson ex-
planned, represented fully the position
Of the United States, saying that, so
far as theory was concerned, there
really was no debate on the point
raised, because England herself, in
American position.
The president said the government
could deal confidently with the sub
tect only if supported by absolutely
honest manifests. He said the great.
est embarrassment to the government
was that some shippers had concealed
contraband in cargoes of non-contra-
band articles, for example, under a
cargo of cotton. So long as there
were instances of that kind, the pres.
ident said, all cargoes were liable to
doubt.

Constantinople, Dec. 80. - Fourteen
British and French warships are OF
the western entrance of the Darda-
nelleS.
Apprehension was caused in Con-
stantinople by reports that the allied
fet is preparing for another attack
against the Turkish forts defending
the waterway, with Constantinople as
the objective.
A statement was issued at Turkish
headquarters in Constantinople urg-
in gthe people to remain calm and
giving assurance that the Dardanelles
cannot be forced. 1t is reported that
a fleet of French and British trans
ports has joined the warships with
troops for the invasion of Turkish
soil as soon as landing can be ef'
fected.

reading it.V91t read it for yourself"
The typewriter lines of the long
message blurred and ran together al
most ndecipherably in Judith's vision.
None the less, she contrived to grasp
the substance of its meaning.

The message was "a I'd with the
name of Alan's confidential man OF
business in New York.
When Judith looked up she was
alone in the room, but for the silent
patient on his couch.
Slowly, almost fearfully, she crept
to his bedside and stood looking down
into the face of her husband.
And while she looked Alan's lashes
fluttered, his respiration quickened,
faint color crept into his pallid cheeks
and his eyes opened wide and
looked into hers.
His lips moved and breathed a word
Of recognition:

With low cry of tenderness, the
girl sank to her knees and encircled
his head with her arms.

face in his bosom, Judith is no

A pause; and then the feeble voice:
Then, if l was mistaken, if you
aren't Judith, you must be Rose-my

She said steadily: 81 am your wife"
His hands fumbled with her face,
closed upon her cheeks, lifted her

so, looking deep into the soul of the
woman.

Tho Wife.
Again three days elapsed; and Ju
dith, returning from the double fu-
neral of her father and sister, doffef
her mourning for gown less sombe4(
and more suited to the atmosphere OF
sickroom, then relieved the nurse
IN charge of Alan.
He remained as he had been ever
since the falling Of the thunderbolt-
in absolute coma.
But he lived, and-or the physicians
lied-must soon regain consciousness.
Kneeling beside his bedside Judith
prayed long and earnestly.
When she arose it was to answer
a tap upon the door. She admitted
Tom Barcus and suffered him to lead
her into the recess of the window,
where they conversed in guarded
tones in spite of the fact that the
subject of their communications could
not possibly have heard them.
"Tve come to tell 20 something"
Barcus announced with characteristic
awkwardness, tive known it for
three days-ever since the wedding,
in fact-and kept it to myself, not
knowing whether 1 ought to tell you
yet or not"
He paused, cycling her uncertainty,
unhappily.
II am prepared" Judith assured
him calmly.

thing imaginable. >. See here :"
"Well?"
"Yod understand, don't you, that

What do you mean?"

erably, you see, he loved her sol

If you can bring yourself to ito let
him go on believing it wasn't Rose
who was killed, but Judith. And that's
skating so close to the truth that it
makes no difference: the Judith Alan

apart.
Then, grasping the arms of his
chair, he lifted himself from 1t and
stood trembling upon his own feet for
the first time In almost twenty years.
Grasping the back Of the wheeled
chair, he used it as crutch to guide
his feeble and uncertain movements.
But these became momentarily
stronger and more confident.
This, then, was the secret he had
Rugged to his embittered bosom,
secret unsupported even by the at
tending surgeon; that through the
motor accident three days ago he had
regained the use of limbs that had
been stricken motionless-strangely
enough, by a motor car-nearly two
decades since.
Slowly but surely moving to the
bureau in the room, he opened one
of its drawers and took out some
thing he had, without her knowledge,
seen Judith put away there while she
thought he slept.
Then, with this hidden in the
steered a straight if very deliberate
course to the door, let himself out,
and like a materialized specter of the
man he once had been, navigated the
corridor to the head of the broad
central staircase and step by step,
clinging with both hands, negotiated
the descent.
The lobby of the hotel was deserted.
. AS the ceremony approached its end
livery guest and servant in the house
Pas crowding the doorway to the
chapel. None opposed the progress
! of this CHASTITY vision in dressing
fgown and slippered feet, chuckling
insanely to himself as he tottered
through the empty halls and CORR
doris, finding an almost supernatural
strength to sustain him till he found
himself face to face with his chosen
enemy and victim.
The first that blocked his way into
the chapel, a bellboy Of the hotel,
looked round at the first touch of the
claw-like hand upon his shoulder and
shrank back with cry of terror-a
cry that was echoed from half q
AS If from the path of some grisly
visitant from the world beyond the
grave, the throng pressed back and
cleared a way for Seneca Urine, ia.
Their of the bride.
And as the way opened and he
looked up toward the altar and saw
Alan standing hand in hand with
Rose while the minister invoked q
blessing upon the union that had been
but that instant cemented, added
strength, the strength of the insane,
was given to Seneca Urine.
When Alan, annoyed by the dis
turbance in the body of the chapel,
looked round, it was to see the aged
maniac standing within dozen feet
of him; and as he looked and cried
out in wonder, Urine whipped a re-
volyer from the pocket of his dressing
gown and swung it steadily to bear
upon Alan's head.
At that instant the storm broke
with Internal fury upon the land.
A crash of thunder so heavy and
prolonged that it seemed to roek the
very building upon its foundations
accompanied the shattering of huge
stained-glass window.
A bolt of blush flame Of dazzling
brilliance slashed through the window
like a flaming Prd and smote the
pistol in the of Seneca Tribe,
discharging eapon even as it
struck him d
