ABOARD U. S. S. COLDS
BOROUGH, OFF SANDY HOOK, N.
j.. July 27 (via wireless) After
waiting more than two hours for a
wind, the regatta committee at lis
o'clock this afternoon sent Resolute
and Shamrock w away on their de-
Gliding race for Americas Cup. The
yachts had drifted about the start
ing point since IL o'clock in the
morning waiting for the starting
signal.
3-kNOT WIND AT START.
The committee sent up a signal
for the race to be over n course fif-
teen miles to windward to point off
Ashbury Park and a run home.
The wind was about three knots
when the race started. 1t gave indi-
cations Of increasing, --..
The actual time OF the start official
ly was Shamrock l:l7:05. Resolute
l:17:45. 1t was announced that both
yachts had failed to cross within the
two minutes handicap allowed. and
therefore their starting time would
be rated as III.
Both yachts sent up their baby jib
top sails in stops when the prelim-
mary signal was given fifteen min
utes before the race. They jockeyed
about maneuvering for the advantage
at the start.
Both yachts hung back at the start
ing signal and failed to reach the line
before the handicap limit expired at
the end Of two minutes. Resolute
was to leeward and Shamrock in the
Burton has outmaneuvered Adams.
SHAMROCks POSITION GOOD.
Two minutes after the start Sham
rock tackled on Resolutes weather
and the latter came about Immediate
ly. Shamrock apeared to be about
fifty yards to windward Of Resolute
and in a fine position.
Shamrock gained the lead at the
start by running across to the light
ship and then lacking back quickly,
while Resolute wore around. Sham
rock came back and was we'll on
Resolute's starboard beam. This kill
ed the defenders wind and put her
back
Fifteen minutes after the start,
Shamrock was 100 yards to weather
and gaining rapidly.
At 1:30 Resolute tackled to star
board and held off shore to avoid run
ming into a tow of barges. Shamrock
held on for the Jersey shore.
Experts were surprised today by
the speed of Shamrock. II was the
first time that the big green chal-
lenger had succeeded in holding the
defender to such a disadvantage.
The breeze was not over three
knots, but Shamrock semed to slip
through the water ably.
At :37 Shamrock was aiding by
quarter of a mile.
At 1:45 Resolute was evidently

BOLOUGNE, July 27.-An Anglia
French conference to discuss details
of the proposed peace parley in Lon

noon.
The original program called for
brief conversations on details for the
proposed general peace conference in
London of Russia and the Russ an
border. states. The presence in Mar
shall Foch and the report that the
conference would continue tomorrow
indicated discussions and perhaps de-
cisions of far reaching Importance.

BOULOGNE, July 27.-An Anglo
French conference to discuss details
of the proposed peace parley in Lon
don between Russia and the Russian
border states opened here this after
noon.
Premier Millerand, who arrived at
noon, was accompanied by Marshal
Foch and by NJ. Marsal, minister Of
finance in the French cabinet Pre-
mier Lloyd George arrived from Lon
don at the same time.
MARSHAL AT FARLEY.
The presence here of Minister Mar
sal is significant, indicating that
possibly Premier Lloyd George has
something to offer Premier Millerand
in the way of recognition by the
soviet government of Russia's ma
tional debt. 1t was presumed that
the British premier desired M. Mar
sails expert opinion.
The refusal of the Bolshevik gov
ernment at Moscow to recognize the
debts contracted by the old imperial
government of Russia has been the
chief stumbling block in the way OF
recognition of the Soviet of France
This arose from the fact that great
quantities of Russian bonds are held
by France.
LLOYD GEORGE SILENT.
Lloyd George was somewhat set
back when he learned of dispatches
from Paris quoting French govern
ment officials as saying that France
would not participate in a general
parley In London, unless the United
States was an active participant. He
refused, however. to make any COM

viously been whining and playint
crazy took the sheriff at his word ant
said he was ready to quit.
In the chase after Owen, Taylor
used his auto for a time, then was or
foot and at one stage of the pursuit
used horse which he secured ir
Rieth. While using the horse the
sheriff cut through several wire
fences. The finish of the chase was
made on foot.
When the two men were first ac-
costed on the railroad track Hart was
deprived of one pistol but the Off
GERS did not know he had a second
gun concealed. When owen made the
trouble Deputy Bushee turned to
Taylor's aid and left Hart in custody
of Eugene Lyman and Bill Ralston
the latter a Pendleton high school
student who was working at Rieth
Hart pulled his second gun and cover
ing the boys made a getaway. He
was finally captured mile and hall
west of Birch creek by Deputy Jake
Marin. Hart is about 29 years of age
and owen is said to be %. Hart as
serts he comes from Montana and
owen halls from Idaho.
Robbed Tom SchcIal.
After holding up Lyman Sunday
night the two men had plundered the
home of Tom Schelal we'll known In
dian. They turned the place upside
down and made way with valuable In
Il 1iar ff.an foh arris
with them in a trunk The Schelal
family was at the Cayuse celebration
at the time and the robbers evidently
felt their theft would not be discover
ed for several days. Among other
things stolen from the house were two
rifles and three pistols. The men had
the pistols on them when captured
but the rifles had been cached with
the other plunder just below Rieth.
owen is regarded by the officers as
a desperate character and Hart as but
little better. owens cunning plus his
cold blooded viciousness made him a
hard man to deal with. Even when
finally captured he grabbed hold of
the sheriff's gun in a vain attempt to
wrest it from the officer. The sher-
lff could easily have killed his man
then as at other times but he was de-
sirous of taking him alive, which he
finally did.
Marin Was "Sore.''
Jake Marin admits that when Hart
fired at him he became mad and for
a time was ready TO kill. He had only
a pistol with him then and quickly
secured a rifle with the aim of doing
some executionary work. However.
he cooled off and waited his time so as
to take the man without killing him.
When Owen was taken by Sheriff
Taylor the latter did not have any
handouts with him. He took Owen
on in front of him on his horse and
thus forded the Umatilla and reached
Rieth. From there the men were
brought to town by auto.
In the chase after Hart. Deputies
Marin, Joe Blakeley and State officer
Cassidy participated. Various other
men helped in the chase but none 9TH
