uncle. This dispatch has made us laugh more than once during the day." In speaking about the manner in which the course was kept clear, Sir Thomas said: "I can't get over the great organization that has been here to keep the course clear. Testerday's course was the clearest we ever had. or I ever saw in England, and only proves what I said before I came to America that in all previous races the best boat has always won. I may as well say now that Shamrock Is the fastest boat ever built in Britain, and the workmanship was the best that money could buy.

I can't tell what her cost was, but it is probably more than you have any Idea of. She cost as much as six Valkyries. The estimates already given are away below the mark." Chevalier da Martino, the marine artist, who has been commissioned by Sir Thomas to paint a series of pictures of the races, was one of the party that en-Joyed a sail on the America. He eall he was delighted with the old champion, and admired boats built of wood more than any other. The Chevalier haa not begun any of his pictures as yet, but Is making rough sketches, which with the aid of snap shots, will give him maerial for his big painting, which will not be begun until his return to London.

He Thomas Upton Feels Confldent- Few Large Bets Recorded Even Money Demanded. New York, Oct. 4. The off-racing day vas ft busy one after all for the sailor-nen on the two cup racers. Mr.

Iselln ind Sir Thomas Upton, however, em-5loyed their hours In different ways. 3n the Columbia a stint of work was 5ut in. The breeze was good from the southwest to west, too good, Mr. Iselin nuat have thought to waste, for he nade eall on his boat while It was at ts beet and went outside. The day on he Erin was one of social success for Sir Thomas and an exceedingly happy ne, as he -expressed It.

Sir Thomas vas pleased at the prospect of a good ace to-morrow. The Columbia went out for a short rial spin outside Sandy Hook shortly ifter noon, principally to try a new topsail, which Mr. Iselin wished have stretched and ready for to-mor-ow's race. Under main sail and jib he yacht filled away from her moor-ngs, and tinder the Influence of a fresh southwest breeze she was soon passing he point of Sandy Hook. Captain Earr brought the yacht iround head to wind when the new top-tell was ready to hoist, and In a few nomenta the big stay-reaching sail was nast-headed.

It Is one of Hathaway's atest and best productions and when aced to the topmast and gaff It fitted perfectly. After setting taut on the sheet and Lack several times to get the sail well stretched, the Columbia was headed (jack for her mooring buoy in Sandy Hook bay, where she arrived about 4 P. m. The mainsail was stowed and all hands sent to supper on board the tender St Michaels. Mr.

Iselin Satisfied. C. Oliver Iselin, who, with Mrs. Iselin and his guests, Messrs Woodbury Kane, Herbert Leeds and Newbury Thome, is quartered on the St Michaels, said this afternoon In regard to yesterday's race: "I am satisfied with Columbia's work during the race, but not with the weather conditions. None of us could tell where the wind was coming from, not even the sailing master.

In all my yachting I don't remember when I've seen a flukler day than yesterday. With all that, however, we had overhauled the Shamrock for the third time when the race was called off. She could not have crossed our bow If she had gone about at that time. Our crew worked well from start to finish." Mr. Iselin remarked that the Shamrock was a fast yacht, but he did not care to express any opinion on the re sult of the races.

He was particularly pleased with the way the excursion fleet behaved. "We were not bothered at any stage of the race" said he, "except for a few moments at the start. before the boats had been directed how to proceed." Asked what he thought the weather would be for to-morrow's race Mr. Iselin said: "I think we shall have a good breeze from the southwest I hone so any way for I should like to get one race off my hands and know where we stand." Regarding the criticism that the leach of the Columbia's mainsail was slack in yesterday's race, the Colum bia's manager said: "That has been fixed. It was a little slack, but not enough to affect the yacht's sailing." It has been understood in some quarters that Captain Rhodes of the Defender would be on board the Columbia in her races to look after the trimming of the sails, and in an advisor's capacity On board the St.

Michaels a member of ine crew saia to-night: "Captain Rhodes has not been with us yet but we wish he was along. He may come yet and if he does he will be welcome." Sandy, the Columbia's mascot, is the same yellow dog that helped to pilot the Defender to victory. He is well fed, sleek looking and carefully guarded by he steward. The crew to a man feel that 'Sandy" is indispensable to the success of the Bristol boat Skipper Charlie Barr is not worried a. bit about the result of the races.

He sticks to his original assertion that the Columbia is the fastest single stick yacht afloat, and that In windward or my other work, she is more than a match for the Shamrock. Sir Thomas Confident. Sir Thomas Llpton when seen thts evening felt confident that his craft would give a good account of herself no matter what kind of a breeze there Is blowing.

Another defect that the game brought out glaringly was Yale's decl.le.1 of proper defensive work.

The annual meeting of the American Board of Commlsloners for Foreign Missions was continued here to-day. Dr. Lu- clen C. Warner, chairman of the committee on the treasurer's department. read his report.

He outlined a plan for the distribution of legacies over a series of years instead ot exhausting them by consuming them In the year in which they are severally received. This committee also reported that the operation of war taxes on legacies been unfavorable to mlslonary societies, as the tax on bequests to benevolent or charitable institutions la 0 2-3 times greater than that on a legacy to a child or parent, and he recommended that the executive officers of the American Board be instructed to communicate with the ofllcers of other societies, colleges and benevolent institutions of tho country, and In co-operation with them, to memorialize changes for such a modification of tho taxes on legacies as shall lessen tht discrimination against bequests for public benefactions. The annual survey of the mission fields In charge of the Uev. Dr. J.

L. Barton of Boston, secretary of the foreign department, was read by him. Secretary Barton read tha report of the European Turkey and the Eastern Turkey missions; Marathl, Madura and Ceylon mlsltsons- In India; Japan, Austria, Spain and Mexico. Speaking of the work In Eastern Tur-kpy he said: "Seldom If ever In the history of the work of this board has a mission been compelled to meet what the Eastern Turkey mission has met during the Iaft three years. The five stations where the missionaries reside are from three to twelve days Journ -y apart from each other, by the nearest and most rapid routes of travel.

At stations where the missionaries reside and about them, extending prety well over a region as large aa New England, Christian schoolsand evangelical churchs have been established. The schools of the mission are full of promise and more than full of students. While the work has In no way diminished the missionary force of the mission has de creased by seven, 'uooa progress is reported In India affd Japan. Regarding Spain the report says: "Since the war the missionaries In Spain have traveled freely and have carried on their work as before without the slightest word or lot upon the Dart of any one than any Ill-will was entertained; while In some places it haa been made most evident that tne people were especially eager to greet and honor Americans." The work In Mexi- con has been successful, Addresses were made by missionaries from various countries and the Rev. Dr.

Fraternal greetings wfre extended by the president of Brown University, the Rev. Dr. W. H. P.

Faunce.and a special paper on "The Universality and Perpetual Ground of Missionary Appeal" was presented by the Rev. Dr. James L. Barton. Among other things he said: "We cannot conceive of Christianity apart from the idea of expansion not enlargement according to the will and judgment of the believer, but expansion by the will and under the order of Almighty God.

In this lies the secret of the external growth of our faith during the last eighteen centuries, while without It the spirit or Christ, the love of Christ, the presence of Christ with his people would speedily cease. The divine imperative which commands all Christians to evangelize all men, Is the eternal, life-giving imperative for all lands and for all time. "What then shall be, must be, the ground of our apeal? No, education, not civilization, not humanity to man, not sociological reform, not merely a desire to ennoble and exalt our fellow-men, but obedience to the eternal principles of our faith as uttered by our blessed Lord and taught by his apostles. Our apeal Is not an appeal for money, but for loyalty to Jesus Christ." Lead In Mr. Benson's Garden.

(Lexington, Letter to Richmond Dispatch.) During the past summer a noted hill, north of Brownsburg, in this county, and called PIsgah, was visited by a heavy rain-storm, and the garden 6f Preeton Benson was washed Into deep gullies, one of which was three feet or more In depth. The owner of the property, ille viewing the wreck of hla former garden this week, saw what he thought to be a stone protruding from the sediment In the bottom of the washout, and being in need of one for some purpose or other, sent his son to dig It out with a mattock. While digging at the supposed stone, the boy discovered It to be lead, and after some time he unearthed three cylindrical bam of this metal, each 'two feet In length, and weighing fifty pounds. The question now is, how -did the lead get there, and why was it so far under ground in that shape. Benson is still digging for load.

He thinks he has a bonanza in the shape of a mine. Madison hqunro tlio I'lacs For It. (Brooklyn Eagle.)

To Reinforce Watson at Manila. Cruiser Brooklyn and Others Going. ORDERS ON RECOMMENDATION OF ADMIRAL DEWEY. Result of Conference Between the Admiral and the President Gunboats Marietta and Machlas Included ia the Order.

Washington, Oct, 4. The President to-day directed the immediate dispatch to the Philippines of number of vessels of the navy, including the cruiser Brooklyn and the gunboats Marietta and Machlas. The action is the result of Admiral Dewey's interview to-day in which he went over the Philippine situation with the President. The orders given are In line with the expressed determination of the President to furnish the army and navy every resource for stamping out the Philippine Insurrection at the earliest possible time. At Admiral Dewey's extended interview with the President to-day the former went Into the Philippine situation at great length, explaining carefully the existing condition of affairs and his views of the outlook, concluding with an earnest recommendation that the Brooklyn and some other vessels be sent at once to the "Philippines.

This reinforcement of the present fleet of the Asiatic squadron he urged as nec essary, and said their dispatch should be directed as early as possible. The President Immediately communicated with the navy department and instructed the secretary of the navy to issue an order carrying out the admiral's recom mendation, and to see that they be got in readiness at once. The Marietta and Machlas, beside the Brooklyn, will be designated by the navy department, along with several other vessels which have not yet been selected. Tba 1b now with the other vessels of the North Atlantic squadron off TomrAinsville, S. I.

The Machlas and the Marietta are at present lying at their wharves in this city on waiting orders. The administration believes the presence of these reinforcements will have a material effect In expediting the end of the hostilities In the Philippines. 1 The Brooklyn Is an armored cruiser of the first class, carrying 20 main bat tery guns and having a total displacement of 9,215 tons. The Marietta is a composite gunboat of one thousand tons displacement, and with a main battery equipment of six guns. The Machlas, with a displace ment of 1,177 tons, carries a battery of eight guns.

The Brooklyn is commanded by Captain Theodore F. Jewell, who has seen fourteen years of aea Eervice and much more than that on'shore: the Machlas by Lieutenant-Commander Leavitt C. Logan, with fifteen years of sea service, and the Marietta by Lieutenant-Commander Edward H. Green. whose record shows seventeen yeara of eea, eervice.

xne lornrad-able equipment will make her of invaluable general service, while the Marietta and Machias are expected to be useful in the numerous shallow waters about the archipelago. It Is not known how soon these vessels can be made ready, but their orders are to get away as early as possible, and no delay is antiipated. Their commanders on arriving at Manila will report without delay to the admiral commanding the Asiacra station for orders. DEAD MAN IDENTIFED. It Was Samuel McKnr who Was Drowned In Rainbow.

The dead body which was found in the river at Rainbow last Monday was identified yesterday as that of Samuel McKay, who has worked In Windsor at different times during the last five years. He had been employed at Poquonock by John Baxter and in Windsor by Joseph G. Thrall and R. W. Mack.

He was a harness maker by trade and had recently worked at that business In Windsor Locks and Suffleld. He came to Windsor from Windsor Locks September 21, and bought a collar and necktie of the Windsor Collar and Cuff Company. As he was well acquainted with S. E. Loveland he went to his laundry and put on) his new collar and tie while there He acted very uneasy and Mr.

Loveland could hardly get Into conversation with him. He answered all questions in a very short way and Inquired where he could get a car to Hartford. Just before going out he went to where Mr. Loveland was working and told him that he intended to make way with himself. Mr.

Loveland was convinced that the fellow was serious in the matter and tried to prevail on him hot to think of such a rash act. This was about 9 o'clock in the evening and Indications are that he carried out his purpose that evening. He was an honest hardworking man. A few years ago he was badly injured about the head and body by a buzz saw. Through information, regarding these injuries, given by Mr.

Loveland, the coroner, Dr. N. S. Bell, was positively able to identify the body. Dr.

Bell is of the opinion that the man's mind had become unbalanced as a result of these injuries, though they happened some years ago. The body is now at the town farm where It will remain until Saturday noon. McKay's father and mother are dead but a brother lives in New Haven. The authorities are In correspondence with the brother and expect he will take charge of the remains. If not the town will bear the expense of burial.

In housekeeping parlance, this is a great year for manufacturers and mer chants to "clean house Accumulations of years are being swept out. Unsalable goods and unsalable sizes are going out whenever they are not too far from what people want but cannot get.

A variation of 1-16 inch or even 1-8 inch in thickness is cheerfully overlooked by a consumer who must have some bar iron or steel toKflnish work which he is doing under pressure for his customers. Buyers of sheets are likewise less exacting as to even if what they get involves more waste in cutting. Off grade pig iron is snapped up by foun-drymen who must have raw material to keep their foundries oing and will manage somehow to work it up. Steel lilleta may run a little high in phosphorous, but some one is found who can use them on his class of work. And the buyers in all cases pay almost If not quite as much as If they were getting exactly what they need.

Bargain days in the Iron trade have passed, and it will be some considerable time until they appear. Hampton' Roads to-morrow it will be impossible. On either Saturday or next Tuesday Admiral Dewey will be one of Sir Thomas's guests on the Erin. LordMinto, governor general of Canada, will witness Saturday's race from file Er.n, and Rear Admiral' Schley has accepted an Invitation to be on board the same day. Mr.

Westlnghouse, inventor of the air brake of that name, will aleo be a guest on Saturday. Ihe bamrock'8 Mnoot. To off the Columbia's mascot "Sandy" tae crew of the Erin and Shamrock also have a good luck dog a small fox terrier puppy. He was laughingly pointed out by the Hon Charles Russell and Mr. Barrie as the rival of the American dog.

The puppy supports an enormous green ribbon, tied In a bow at the nam of his neck. Matthew, a Singalese servant of Sir Thomas, and another mascot, is compos ing a sone to be rendered upon tne an nouncement of Shamrock's victory. It is set to the tune of "Wearing of the Green," the last line of the choru3 De ing: "We'll say good by Mlstaire Yankee, When -we brine that flagon back." When aped about the condition of Desismer Fife Sir Thomas Llpton said tDr Reld Backey, my doctor, is with Kim and I understand he is not much better. I am very sorry, for I miss him very much. His Illness at this time is very unfortunate." All Bettloa at Even Money.

The reported odds on Columbia did not develop to-day, Where small bets had been made at 10 to 8, 10 to 7 and at greater odds, some at 2 to 1 there was to-day nothing better than even money The uptown hotels recorded but few bets and none for large amounts. The largest amount wagered to-day was $200 even, between a visiting cnica goan and a well known New York yachtsman. Where in 1895 several com mission firms had in hand foreign or ders to place sums ranging from one thousand to five thousand pounds sterling upon Valkyrie there have been no such opportunities this year for American bettors against Shamrock-There Is only one house in the "street" which Is the depositor of British money. A prominent Broad street broker declined an offer to cover a $1,000 bet on the Shamrock this noon, and yet he was a warm partisan of the Columbia. Two bets were reported at the stock exchange, one of 11,000 to $800, the other $1,000 to $600.
