Y. FIFTH DAY OF CHESS ILAY. Ilarrard'a trouar Lead and the Otber Colleges All Tied. The fifth day's play In the Intercollegiate chess tournament was marked by two noteworthy events. Columbia won both of its games, and Southard of Harvard scored his fifth consecutive victory.

The result of the day's play was to give Harvard a lead that cannot be overcome and to put the three other college teams In second place. A number of surprises were also the result of the day's play. Ryder fell before Young, Price beat Lehlbach rather handily. and Gordon Parker of Columbia, who was substituted for Asa W. Parker, won his game from Murdoch.

Young tried his third French Defense, and won after a game of vicissitudes in which Ryder overlooked mate in one or two moves. The onlv eme that was up to the contests In former tour neys was trie one between Southard and Seymour. Gordon Parker, although he won his game, does not seem to possess any more enterprise than A. W. Parker, whom he succeeded.

N. Jan. 1. The Gov ernors and patronesses or the Ealtusrol Golf Club provided a fine entertainment today for their 4X guests In the form of a reception with a tojrnament In the snow thrown In for diversion. The clubhouse was beautifully decorated with evergreen and holly.

The tournament was more amusing than scientific. Although tho thaw had cleared away a great deal of the snow, enough remained to bury tho little rid balls completely from kight when they siruck the surface. Special rules, therefore governed match, and the golfers were allowed to pick their balls out from these deep holes and te them on a smooth rjatch of earth. These smooth patches were coated with a thick surface of mud, so altogether novel conditions ruled the contest. Nevertheless, twenty-one out of thirty-six entries finished the required eighteen holes, and some of the scores were not so bad as might be supposed.

The full list of twenty-one players, with final scores, follows: Player and Club. Gross. Hd'c'p, Net. D. Vandernool.

On the run Home they gave Cape San An tonio the wlJwst possible berth, as Spanish cruisers were flocking to head oft the boat which had fited upon and beaten off the Spanish flag. The expedition was landed on a key thirty miles from Key West on the night of ednesdafc-. Dec. 21.

Provisions fan short, and the whole ex perience froni the lack of food and water and other hardships, was terrible. The lo- cation of the expedition was known in Key West, but th re was no interference from United Stated authorities. Dec.

30 the Inen were moved to Pine Key, wher there was dry land and fresh water. and where tvJo schooner loads of provisions had ben brought from Key West, so that affairs were Irighter. Last night another steamer arrived to take off the expedition. The party had settled down for a long stay, not know ing when the would ba taken oft, and the coming of tile second steamer was hailed with great Jdy, The work 4f loading tha cargo went on through the night, and this afternoon everything B-S on board and the filibuster was ready for sea. DISCREDITED THIS CITY.

Cabana See No Reason to Believe the Ftllbu sters Were Drowned. I The report prom Madrid of the drowning of fifty-one filibusters off one of the Florida keys did not obtain much credence In this city yesterdaly. Tbe Information did not come until lak last night that the Daunt less had takeh a party of men off No Name Key. and In I the absence of this Informa tion New Yirkers who talked about the Madrid repont were inclined to doubt not only the stoty of the drowning, but also that there wt- re filibusters on any Florida key. The oH ginal story of the last Three Friends exp fcition was that the boat had landed her paksengcra on Cuban soil, and, as this report came ostensibly from newspaper corresponden is who were aboard the boat.

the story that the filibusters bad been aban- doned'on an sland and that they had lost their lives arid arms while trying to es- cape waa reap with Incredulity. According to this story, the filibustering steamer Three Friends left a Southern port, (the identity if which has been kept secret.) on tho night lof Sunday. Dec. 1.1. She had been partially 'loaded with ri.les and ammunition and had on board a Hotchkiss gun.

In bull! the vessel has been described as resembling a big ocean-going tug, with very poor facilities for storing freight. There were fewer than sixty persons on board when the vessel started on her mys terious misslbn, and these included forty or fifty raw recruits, who had avowedly em barked on the exyedltion for the purpose of helping the Chi ban cause. According to the atatementa of peraona who claim tolhave been or board the Three Friends, the Beatinatloa of the steamer was Cuba, and when the sealed orders were opened, two fays after the boat set sail, it was near Clenfuegoa, on the south aide of waa near Clonfuegaa, on the south aide of the Island. 1 An attempt was made at midnight of Saturday, Dm. 19 to land monitions of war at the awauth of the 6an Juan River between Cleiifuegoa and Trinidad.

A Span- Ish gunboat happened near, however, and attempted td capture the Three Friend Shots were exchanged and the filibuster put out to sea ana escaped. The veaael was not heard of thdreaXter until aba appeared in Key West, Ostensibly having been out seeking a cargo of sheila and sponges. Surmise ant rumor naa it tnat tne omcers of the Three (Friends, being compelled to re turn to the united Statea. found them- selves In an awkward position. It would not do to bring back the cargo of men and munitions, tlch would be.

Indisputable evl-essel'a mltsloa, 80 It was de- dence of the termined to land them at some uninhabited spot, easy picked up access, where they could be readily by the Three Friends later on, aitir aha should have been In port and secured the location a clean bilL Fearing that If lot the men were made known they might fall Into th hands of tha Span-lardg, the leaders of ths erpsdltlon sought to keep Ihe real facts bv se-jret, and vheu the steamer came Into pert, the anno-ince-ment was niAde that th.e eapedlUort bad been sufely landed 111 tuba. But the atory of the alleged landing oa one of the Keys was circulated. It waa aid that the filibusters were well supplied with provisions. Jto mention was m.e, however, to boats having bren left, and Cuban sympathiser In ihla could not therefore, understand how the men could have been drowned. They reasoned that, aa the report of the disaster carno by way of Madrid, ft was far mon reasonable to suppose that it the filibusters had perished It waa probably because they had been discovered by the Spaniards and put lo death.

it Waa not believed thai the I men wnul.i have attemepted tot. return to! the United States by raft pr meL boat? when they had every assurance thathey would soon be picked tip-by the Three Friends or some other vessel in the service of the Cubans, Dr. Castillo of the Cuban Junta aald: The report Is ridiculous. There la no truth in It, It la a pure TabrlcaUon. We know where our men are.

They are all right." Beyond this, the Doctor vould say noth ing. He was seen at hie ho-ne, C80 Lexing ton Avenue, which is a Cuban boarding house, and a favorite evening resort of Cubans. There was a Jolly New Year's gathering there, which filled the hall and parlors, and from the back room came sounds of merry making. "We are all friends here," tho Doctor said. There" was no evidence, certainly, of mourning, euch as might have been looked for had there been reason for giving the report from Madrid credence.

Dr. Castillo last night, denied also that there waa disaffection In the Junta with Gen. Tomas Estrada Palma. The conditions and relations are now what they have been from the first," ho said. We think we know who Is responsible for the report that Gen.

Palma Is to be superseded as dele gate hero by Sefior Portuondo, the Cuban Minister of Foreign Affairs. We shall know definitely to-morrow. There is no truth in that report," Gen. Palma was out of town yesterdav. having gone to hi3 home la.

She was ninety-six years old. Her husband, Dr. H. C. Penny, a dermatologist 6f this city.

Orders sent C. O.

were re turned by him, it is said, and a special de livery letter sent to him demanding prompt settlement of an account was also, it is alleged, returned unopened. A well-known wholesale drug nouse in this city made Inquiries at the Post Office Department, on Kov. as to wnetner any complaints had been received concerning the Union Drug company. About as let ters of Inquiry were at once sent out to druggists, and soon many replies came, stating that good3 sent to the company in question had not been paid for. Brown was arraigned before United States Commissioner FLske and held in $1,000 bonds to appear on Jan.
