AN ANGRY WIFE In Jail for Assailing Her Alleged Rival.

Mi8 Qussie Frickel and the Brooklyn Woman Who Struck Her With a Para sol The ex Captain of the Mont auk the Cause of the Contention. Mrs. Johanna Breitfleld, of 1,129 Third avenue, South Brooklyn, Is a prisoner in tho Hudson County, New Jersey, Jail because of an assault sho committed last Thursday on Gussle Frlckol, a girl who, she behoves, ontlced hor hUBband away from hor. The husbaud is Petor Nathaniel Breitllold, a ship designor, who was once an intimate frlond of Captain Philip Ellsworth, the designor of the Atlantic, and was a year ago himself the captain of the celebrated schooner Montauk. Gussle Frickel Is the sister of one of Breitflold's yachlng friends.

Breitfleld loft his wife in Juue, 1835, and Bho has sinco had to earn hor own living. On Thursday Mrs. Breltfreld's, having learned that her husband was at prosent working In a Philadelphia shipyard, and that Otto Frickel knew of his whereabouts, went to Jersey City, whore Otto was to bo tried on a charge of abandoning an alleged wife of his own, to Implore that young man to glvo hor Breltfreld's address. Sho was accompanied by Mrs. Mayer, wife of the former steward of tho Montauk.

Otto's trial had been adjourned and tho two women procoeded to Hobokon to visit somo mutual friends. In Washington streot they accidentally met Gussio Frickel, who is a young woman of very Jaunty nppoaranbo. Mrs. Breitfleld stopped Miss Gussio and asked her If sho knew Peter Brietfield's address. GubsIo Bald she had not seen Petor since last summer, when he spent a few weoks In Hobokon.

Mrs. Briotfleld then upbraided Gussle for enticing hor husband away, whereupon Gussio In the words of Mrs. Mayor Mako hor noso mlt her fingers like dot" (illustrating the action), "stuck ho tonguo through hor mouth at Johanna and spit her right in do face." This was more than Mrs. Breitfleld could stand, and she struck the Jaunty young woman on tho back with a light parasol. Gussio screamed for a policeman, aud a few minutes later Mrs.

Breitfleld was arrested. Whon tho party reached the Hoboken pollco station Gussle fell down In an epileptic fit, as sho does quite often, and was unablo to make any complaint Mrs. Breitfleld was locked up, despite Mrs. Moyor's protestations and offers of bail. Mrs.

Mayer went to Hobokon yosterday, taking a large amount of money, but Gussio had not recovered suflleienty to appoar in court, and tho ustico declared he would havo to wait and soo If tho girl died. He thoroforo postponed the examination until Tuesday and ordorod Mrs. Breitfleld to bo locked up on tho Hill in the Hudson County Jail until then. Mrs. Mayer offered cash ball, and sho trlod very hard to save hor friend from Imprisonment, but without avail.

She was Informed that Gussle was "solid" with the Hobokon officer who mado tho arrest, and that Mrs. Breitfleld would probably ro Colvo a severs sontonco. Mrs. Breitfleld Is given an excellent character by peoplo in tho neighborhood of Third avenue and Forty sixth street, this city. She is a handsome woman of slight figure, predisposed to consumption, and by far too weak from her lato troubles to mako a serious assault on any one with a light parasol as a weapon.

HIS FATAL AIM. Frederick Weidmann Hakes a Target of His Heart. The Son of One of Brooklyn's Woalthies Coopers Kills Himself in the Areaway of His Father's Residence Jealousy of His Wife the Supposed Cause. The residents of tho handsome brown stone dwellings on South Ninth street, between Wythe avonuo and Berry stroet, wero startled at 10:30 o'clock last night by tho loud roport mado by the discharge of a revolver, and many heads wero thrust out of tho windows aud many glances cast in the direction whonce tho noiso came. The shrioks of tho ladles belonging to tho household of Mr.

Paul Weidmann, the wealthy cooper, who resides at 73 South Ninth street, Indicated that whatevor trouble there was in the neighborhood had occurred thero, and tho indications wero entirely accurate. Strotched in tho front aroa way of tho residonce, was tho body of Frederick Weidmann, who was 2G years old, and tho son of Paul Weidmann. From an orifice ovor tho young man's heart blood flowed copiously. Miss Weidmann, a sister of tho pros trato man, and othor members of tlio family stood arouud. A physician was promptly summoned, but boforo hla arrival Frederick was dead.

Officer Gil moro.of tho Clymor stroot statlon.made an investigation, which showed that tho young man called at tho house a short while beforo in a stato of considerable montnl excitement. It was apparent that ho had beon drinking, and that bo was brooding ovor somo roal or Imaginary trouble which tho family had been awaro of, for lie remarked to his sister, 1 am going to shoot myself." Don't do that, Frod, it would be 80 foolish and wicked," Miss Weidmann ropllod. Ho apparently paid no heed to his sistor's advico, for ho walked out of tho basemont door, and, placing tho mouth of a flvo chamborod thirty two caliber revolver at his breast in front of his hoart, ho discharged ono chamber. Tho ball ponetratod tho hoart and young Weidmann foil to tho ground. Two mou named Franklin Piorco White, of South Fourth stroet, and David J.

Warnor, of 214 Greono avonuo, woro passing tho houso when Woklmnnn flrod tho shot and thoy thought for a momont, until the sulcido fell, that tho bullot had boon mo 9 nt for ono of thom. Tho members of tho Weidmann family woro disinclined to glvo any particulars about Froderlck or the cause ot his startling act, but it was stated that ho is married and that he had troublo in his family, growing out, probably, of his own insane Jealousy. Froderlck was married moro than sovon yonrp ago to Miss Ida Tuthill, tho daughtor of a well to do lady residing in tho Thirteenth Ward. Ida, who, liko her husband, was very young at tho time of hor wedding, was rogarded as a hello In society. Young Weidmann was of a wild disposition, and as years rolled on ho was much addlctod to liquor and grew Jealous of his wife.

Staves for Mr. Wold mann's great cooporago woro mado, whoro hundreds of men aro omployod, at tho foot of North Sixth aud North Sovonth streets, aud shipped on horo from the saw mills. A fotv years ago Frodorlck, or his father, sold tbo mills and established other mills in a settlement in Ontario, Canada, and named tho placod Woldmnan.

Tho thriving vlllago ostab lishod thoro is luhabltod mostly by mon who work In tho mills and tholr famillos. Fredorlck Weldmann's brothor iu law, Mr. Tuthill, is tho book keopor of tho mills. Mrs. Weidmann, who has four children, Is said to havo boon dissatlsflod with hor rosldonco in a Canadian forest, for the placo Is comparatively uniuhabitod, and frequently urgod her hUBband to como East.

In tho early part of July Fredorlck and his wife camo to Brooklyn to spend tho Summnr, and they took up tholr residence at East Moriches, Long Island, with Mrs. Tuthill. Tho The mills woro loft In chargo of young Tuthill. Frederick, it is said, did not go to tho placo sinco ho camo East, but his fathor wont thore ten or twolvo days ago and roturued this wook, bringing a couple of horsos with him. While in Canada, It is said, tho fathor expocted tho son on to attond to tho mills, but whether ho spoko to Froderlck, on his roturn, about nogloctiug his business is not known.

A young man, a cousin of Mrs. Woldmann, stated that Frod was of a Jealous disposition that his wifo was always groatly worried In consequence. From tho samo sourco it was learned that young Woldmann drank frooly. Ho called on his fathor's family frequently since July and passod much of his timo in tho Eastern District in company with bis frlonds. HOTEL ARRIVALS.

Tho man saw that it would bo usoloss to ro3ist as all tho crowd's sympathies were against him. He attempted to beat a retreat in tho direction of Flatbush avenue but was hotly pursued by tho girl who lashed him at every step. Blood ran from his faco and his nook was badly cut He ran Into a cigar store at the corner of FlatbuBh and Carlton avenues for protection.

Thoy ought to have made a contract months ago, In fact, within thirty days after thoy took office, which wai February 1 of the present year.

Since George Swift threw up his contract in the Summer of 1885, the work has boen done by tho City Works Department, which has employed men to collect tho garbage and deliver It to J. F. Siasat the old Bushwlck depot and paid Slas threo and one half cents a barrel to take it away. Sias railroads It to the piggeries at Yaphank. The appropriation on account of garbage for the current year is $30,000.

The work is being done at tho rato of JO0.OOO. Of course, the regular appropriation has been exhausted, and the money is raised under tho emergency clause. The appropriation for next year Is $50,000. It Is now doclded to call for bids for October, Novomber and December of this year, and separate bids for a term not to exceed five years, the latter bids to set forth the prlco for each yoar or term of years. This monlng Commissioners Conner and Otterson adoptod specifications on which the proposals are to bo received.

These specifications provide for the collection and removal of garbage as follows: Dally from hotels, restaurants, groceries, stores, boarding, lodging and club houses, and from all other buildings twice a week during the months of January, February, March, April, Novombor and December, and three times per week during the months of May, Juno, July, August, September and October of each yoar, except that the removal of garbage from vacant lots of the city shall be made on notification to tho contractor from the Commissioners of Health or Department of City Works, which notlco shall state tho location of the lot or lots. The contractor must havo notlco given of tho approach of his wagons by tho ringing ot bells. Thero shall be no garbage collected bofore 6 :30 A. except In the cases of hotels and restaurants, from which It may bo taken at any time. Then thoro are the following Important provisions: All garbago to be removed shall be placed upon the sidewalk, near the curbstone, by occupant or occupants of each premises, and shall be removed by the contractor and placed In the garbage carts or wagons In as cleanly a mannor as po3siblo, and without spilling upon the street or sidewalk, or causing any nuisance, and the receptacles when empty shall bo returned to their several places upon tho sldowalk from whence they were taken, In a careful manner, except that from tonoment housos the contractor shall, when required, take the garbage from the back yards of said premises and return receptlcle to sidewalk of said premlsos.

The contractor shall also collect and removo all kitchen and othor garbage which may be upon any sldowalk, court, street, alley or avenue In said city, or on any vacant lot or lots of the entirafclty, by whomsoevor there placed. It Is furthor provided and understood that the contractor shall collect, cloan up and romove from the streets of the city all garbago that may have been by accident or otherwise overturned or spilled out of any ro coptaclo of garbago. No porson under the age of twenty one shall havo charge of any ot the appliances or voblclos used In tho work. Provision is alBO made for dally reports at the Department of City Works by tho contractor In person and for the weekly written reports as to the numbor of cubic feot of garbage removod from each ward. In oaso of noglect on tho part of the contractor, this department will do tho work at his expense.

The contraot may at any timo bo terminated by tho conjoint departments whenever the contractor shall refuse or nelect to porform any of tho stipulations thereof, and as to the fact of suoh refusal or neglect, the department reserve to themselves the exclusive right of Judging, but the contractor shall not be terminated until a fair investigation shall havo been made, of which investigation the contractor shall have ten days' written notice, and at which he Bhall bo allowed to appear In person or by attornoy. For the protection of tho city, tho specifications provide that in addition to the bond of $15,000 required from the contractor the faithful performance of his contract, tho contractor shall deposit with tho Controller $3,000, which sum shall be expended after tho money at tho tlmo due to the contractor Is exhausted by the Commissioner of tho Department of City Works, to meet tho expenses of tho removal of garbago rendered necessary by the neglect of the contractor. Any moneys thus spent In excess of tho aald 2,000 may bo charged against tho contractor and recovorod from him and his sureties, or charged against any moneys to becomo due the contractor under his contract. The two Commissioners say they shall endeavor to havo tho work done In the best possbllo manner. Thoro Is certainly room for great improvement.

As a mattor of fact, this service has been conducted in about as scandalous a manner as the street cleaning work. The collections havo been irregular and otherwise imperfeot, and In many Instances the collectors aro Insolent loafers who seem to think that tholr political pull enables them to do about ao they pleaie. THE ASSESSORS. Mayor Whitney was at his office for a short time only to day, and did not meet a committee of Fourteenth Ward Democrats, headed by Frank Nolan, who called to ask him to appoint Thomas J. Patterson as an Assessor.

Mr. Patterson is president of the ward association and is engaged in the coal business. Tho Mayor will not probably appoint the successors of Asiossors Ennis and Burrows until the end of tho month, and the two Assessors for the Twenty sixth Ward until Docomber. Thore Is an impression abroad that ho will reappoint EnnlB and put Patterson or Joseph Mumby in Burrows' placo. TUB BUILDING BUSINESS.

Mil, Governor of the State of Sew York, Albany, S. Sir, I have the honor to call your attention to tho fact that in December, 1884, there were certain chargos pending bofore Your Excellency concerning the uon enforcoment of tho law by James W. Uidgway, District Attorney for tho County of Kings, against gambling, by a eommitteo consisting at that time of Messrs. 11. E.

Simmons, William C. Beecher and myself, who waited upon you, and that those charges were, at your suggestion, withdrawn. At that tlmo It was suggested that tbo papers Bhould bo put in due form, and the chargos all united and verified boforo your Excolloncy took action. After wo had thus recelvod tho papers from your Excolloncy, ono of our eommitteo was waitod upon by Mr. James W.

Hldgway, who, In writing, In most posltlvo terms, pledged himself to do all In his power tho secure the proper enforcement of tho law In Kings county. That promise the said Hldgway has broken in ovory particular, so far as my knowlodgo goes; 1 am confldont that ft was simply a trick upon his part to secure delay, and to prevent us from returning tho charges which WO had made against him to your Excolloncy for action, Evor since that time notorious gamblers have continued to violate the law In Kings County. Of moro than 100 indictments found against gamBlora upon evidence socurod by the agonts of this Boeiety, sinco James W. Kidgway went Into office, not ono has boon tried. I beg to call your attention to the fact that the Brighton Beach Racing Association, at Brighton Boach, in tho Town of Gravosond, has since 1833 oponly violated and transgressed tho laws of this State.

In September, 1883, wo secured tho indictment by tho Grand Jury of a numbor of those gamblers, aud also the Indictment of John Y. McKane, Cbiof of Police of the Town of Gravesond, and sov eral of his subordinates, for being present aiding and abottiug thoso crimes aud allowing them to go on without informing against or prosecuting thom, as required to do by Section 349 of tho Ponal Code. In Way, 1881, Mr. Uidgway wrote to John Y. McKane calling upon him to onforce tho law.

He is suod several proclamations through interviews with tho dally pross, In which he admitted that the violation of tho law was open and flagrant, and that it was his Intention to enforce the law. Juno 3, 1881, in charging the Grand Jury, Judgo Mooro, of tho Kings County Sosslons Court, is reported in all of tho newspapers as saying that the violation of law in tho Town of Gravesend against gambling wa3 open, flagrant and persistent" I am thus particular to show you that as far back as May, 1884, those high officials knew of tbo open and flagrant violations of the law in Kings County. Of all thoso indictments thus found against notorious gamblers not a single ono has been tried by tho said James W. Hldgway sinco he has been In office. In Juno, 1881, we secured evidence against twenty two of these gamblers.

I drew the complaints in duo form of law, and took those complaints personally to the District Attorney's offlco and asked for warrants and search warrants to arrest tho said gamblers and their unlawful paraphornalla, which was then being kept and used by thom in a public place, while they violated tho law in tho most flagrant, opon and persistont manner. Theso matters wero delayed In the District Attomoy's ofllco from the 17th day of Juno, 1884, until tho 30th day of June, 1884, and it was only after being put off from day to day, and two days turnod away from the Grand Jury room, whoro wo had been subpouaed as witnesses, without being eallod upon to give our testimony, that at last I demanded that the matter should be takon up and acted upon by the Grand Jury, or that I would lay the whole matter forthwith before the Governor of tho Stato. As tho result of my demand, we wero permitted to go before the Grand Jury and tho Grand Jury, within an hour, examined the witnesses aud ordered bills of Indictment against the whole twonty two of those men. Tho matter was again delayed from the 2flth day of June, when tho indictments woro ordorod, until the 30th day of June, or the last day but ono of tho races at this race course for tho Juno season. And this delay was In tho District Attorney's office.

In the meantime, persons knowing of my efforts, came to mo and told mo that a bargain had been mado by which $50,000 had boon paid, upon an agreement that the District Attorney would absolutely not permit these gamblers to be arrosted, would not permit their business to be interfered with, and that I would be defeated in my efforts to seouro the in forcoment of tho law. Having confidence In Mr. Ridgway, and being Iod to feel that ho earnestly Intended to onforce tho law, from his published statements, I wont to him and told him exactly what had been said in order that he might take more effectual moasuros to bring these men to Justice. To my dismay, however, I found the mattor delayed until the last moment, and thon, at tho last, Mr. Ridgway refused to allow these men to bo arrested on bench warrants, refused to allow search warrants to be Issued to seize their unlawful paraphernalia, but did permit and send his officers, whllo the gamblers wero actually violating the law, to them, and notified them that tho Grand Jury had indicted thom, and for them to appear and give ball tho next morning (at an hour when It would not Interfere with their unlawful business).

Theso men continued on until tho close of the Summer season, returned again in Soptembor of tho same year, and continued the same business in tho samo opon and defiant manner. I sent threo men as eye witnesses to secure evidence against these gamblers, and they Becured evidence against soventeou, thirteon of whom were thoso indicted in June, 18S4. This matter I laid personally before Mr. Kidgway, and from that day until the presont ho has never subpenaod a single ono of the witnesses in any of those cases complained of in September, 1884, has never brought the matter beforo any Grand Jury, but has allowed those gamblers to go on and oponly dofy the law. ThoBe, lot It bo remembered, woro tho ones whom ho protecto I from arrest, and thoso whose unlawful business he protected from Interference with in June, 1884.

In December, 1884, those gamblers demurred to the indictments of June, 1884, and a Judgment of conviction was entered against each of them. They desired to appeal to the General Term of tho Su promo Court, and It was stipulated that thoy should appoal to the Genoral Term to got tho decision of tho Genoral Torm upon somo question. An appoal wnB takon bofore a Judgment of sontonco was passed from which thoy Bhould appeal. Tho appoal was arguod boforo the Goneral Torm, and In May, 18S5, the Gonoral Torm unanimously afflmod tho Judgment of conviction; June, 1883, tho order of affim anco was fllod in tho ofllco of tho County Clork of Kings County. The samo month, at tho samo timo, tho gamblers woro openly violating tho law in Kings County.

Wo socurod tho evidence against somo of tbo same men during the month of Juno, brought theso mou into court and had thom indicted by tho Grand Jury, in spite of Mr. Kidgway or his office. Thoy woro arrested and held for trial, but wero not sontonced, nor called up for sontonco when thus arrostod a Bocond tlmo. There was at that tlmo no notlco of appoal, nor was any notice of appoal fllod until July 3, 1885. Notwithstanding all those facta no Judgment roll was Died in tho Court of Appoals until July, 1880, if, indeed, thoro lias boon any appoal papers perfoctod in tho Court of Appeals at alL Thoro had boon nono fllod of any description that tho Clork of tbo Court of Appeals could find, or know anything of, In the early part of July of the presont yoar.

Thoro was no stay Issued to provont those ton convicted gamblers from being brought into court and sontoncod. Tho soason of 1R85 was filled out with 120 days of open public gambling In Kings County. In tho month of Juno last tho Brighton Boach Racing Association and the Conoy island Jockey Club, the ono at Brighton Boach and tlio other at Shoepshoad Bay (both in tho little Town of Gravesend), opened thoir racing season, and public gambling has boon carried on during Juno and Soptember at both places, tho Brighton track doing business continuously sinco thoy oponed, except a few days. Within a fow woeks a third raco courso has boon started in that llttlo Town of Gravosond, and gambling is oponly maintained thero under tho fostering care and protection of tho District Attorney aud tho courts of Kings County. That thoro is full and absolute ovldoneo against tho gamblers that have boon Indicted, I havo no question whatovor.

From fourtoon years of oxperi nncn in tiorfectinc evidence against criminals I am forced to say to your Excolloncy that the evidence is posltlvo and absolute to socuro tho conviction with any honost effort bofore an honost court by an honest District Attorney. Tho pross havo been demanding for yoars tho enforcement of the law against gambling, but have asked In vain. Who aro those gammers, you ask i answor, thoy aro professional gamblers, somo of whom maintain faro banks and other banking games during the Wlutor months, rosidlng outsldo of tho County of Kings, and somo from outsldo this Stato, who aro normltted to como into Kings County, and, with tho knowlodgo of tho District Attorney and tho courts of Kings County, thoy aro pormittod to sot up tholr gambling schomes and to oponly, porsist ontly and doflantly violate tho lows of thiB Sta! lo tho groat dotrirnont of public morals and against tho best interests of socioty. I thoroforo, In viow of theso facts, horowith return to you tho charges and specifications against James W. Kidgway, District Attorney, and in the name of tho People of tho Stato Now York, I ro spoctf ully ask that you will tako immodiate action on this very important matter, that tho onforcc mont of tho law may bo secured, aud that justico and law shall no longor be made a mockery of In tlio County of Kings.

Gambling in threo public places is now going on in violation of law by theso notorious, but untried gamblers. I rospoctfully ask that you will direct tho Attorney General of this Stato to tako theso indictments against thoso notorious and persistent gambling of fendoi's into an Oyer and Tormiuor court, and thoro havo thom prosocuted and dealt with according to I ask your Excolloncy to remove W. Ridgway, District Attorney, from an office which ho has fUnurnceil. and in no lonctor worthy to hold. Your Excellency must soe that tho growth of theso crimes Is ondangoring tho very foundations of socioty, for I submit with groat rospoct and dofer onco to your Excellency If any sot of criminals may buy Immunity from prosecution and punishment, if ono sot of criminals may control tho oaths of tho courts and District Attorney, and may ox poct thcao ofiicors to do thoir own bidding, that tbo interests of Bocioty are Jeopardized, and tho morals of tho community must of uocesslty suffer violence.

Already so bold aro thoso gamblors, and so suro aro thoy that they havo absoluto control of tho couvt3 of Kings County, that thoy have threatened vlolouco and bloodshod in case tho agents of this society shall Intorforo with thoir gambling schomes. 1 bog furthor to say to your Excolloncy, that there 1b no help save In your hands. Wo, therefore, appoal to you as the Chief Magistrate of tho Empire Stato, praying that you will glvo this mat tor prompt and Immodiato attention, as thoro aro to day, at this writing, no less than throo different organizations In tho llttlo Town of Gravosond and County of Kings, whoro professional gamblors are sotting up, In open day, their gambling operations, in violation of tho provisions of Chaptor of the Ponal Code, and aro, in the words of Judgo Mooro, "openly, flagrantly and persistently violating tho laws of this Stato, and this, too, aftor that fact has boon known to the court and District Attorney of Kings County sinco May, 1831.

YANKEE DAY. The Mayflower Shows Her Heels to Her Eival. loading: tbo Galatea Three Miles on the Homeward Ruu IIlnes3 of Lieutenant Henn Bearor Webb Does Not Handle the Tiller Today The Boston Boat Likely to Win a Most Decisive Yietory.

A more perfect day for a ynclit race could Hot have been than that which dawned upon the bay and harbor this morning. Everybody was astir at an unusually oarly hour. The wind waa brlBk, the weather comfortably warm and but for the threatening clouds all indications pointod to a day of great sport Theso dark clouds soon moved Bivay however and loft nothing wanting in the mako up for a successful contost. To day the second rase botwoon the crack Yankee yacht Mayflower and the boas British boat Galatea was to bo sailed over a course twenty mlloa to the leeward and return. Tbo various excursion steamers carried about their usual number of passengers down the bay, though many who had experienced tho hardships of Thursday's fog remained at home.

Tho boautiful marine blcturos of the previous days were repeated in tho lower bay. Flags and bunting floated from ovory cratt, large and small. Tho number of steam yachts which have made the bay lively on previous occasions was not diminished to lay. Tho raeors loft their anchorages off Bay Itidgo shortly after 8:30, and woro towed down toward tho starting point, followed by tho usual procession of pleasure craft and excursion boats. Everything seemed to point to a good raco and that it would surely bo finished within the prescribed time.

The wind was blowing al the rato of thirteen miles an hour from tbo northwost Tliero was a modorate sea on, which was likely to become more violent, as tho breeze was steadily luoreaaiug. At 10 olelock tho Telocity of the wind Had in creased to twenty three milos an hour, and the weather though still somewhat cloudy was rapidly clearing up. The yachts hurriod toward the starting point apparently anxious to get away while the BtifCuor'westerwas in full Mast. TUB 8TAKT. Tho yachts aftor considerable maneuvering about tho Judges' boat Anally got Into position for tho start Whon tho signal was given tho Yankee boat got a little the better of Lieutenant Uenn's; pot and the yachts crossed tho lino In this man nor Mayflower, 11 :22 :25 Galatea, 11:81:55.

The wind was blowing about sixteen miles an hour and was still from the northwest. 11:38 Tho yachts have gone about a mile over tho course. They are standing southeast, their true positions being about the same as when they etarted. The Mayflower is about an oighth of a mile ahead. 11 The Mayflower Is now about a quarter of a mile ahead.

Highlands, Soptombor 11. M. The yachts havo gono about threo milos over tho course. Tholr positions are about the same, tho Mayflower leading by a quarter of a mile. 12:15 The yachts aro standing down tho coast With the wind aft.

Thoy aro almost sklo by side, With the sails drawing fluely. 12:35 The yachts have gono about ten miles over the course. Tbo Boston boat appears to be leading by half a mile. Weather hazy, wind northwest eighteen milos. The raco will bo finished very early, barring accidents.

12:48 P. M. The yachts havo gono about twolvo miles over the course, and are still standing southeast The Mayflower is increasing her load, and is now nearly a milo ahead. 1 P. M.

Tho Mayflower leads the Galatea by over a mile. 1:08 Tho yachts huve gono about fifteen miles over tho course. Tho Mayflower Is still increasing nor lead, and Is about a mile and a half ahead. Both are still standing southeast 1 The yachts are now hearing the off shore etake boat, the Mayflower still increasing her lead. The wind is blowing nlnoteen miles an hour from north northwest 1:55 The Mayflower has turned tho oft shore Btake boat and is now on tho homo stretch.

2:11 The Galatea turned the off shore stake boat at 2:10:10. Both yachts are now on tho starboard tack, the Mayflower throe miles ahead. 2:13 The Mayflower has gono about on the port tack. 2:20 The Mayflower has gone about on starboard tack. Both yachts aro now on tho same tack, standing southwest 2:28 Both yacht aro still on tho starboard tackf the Mayflower carrying working topsail and tho Galatea club topsail.

Tho Mayflower is two miles to windward. 3:00 Tho Mayllowor still maintains hor load. By MeGuire's Carrier 8:45 The yachtsmon wore mado happy this morning by the clear sky and the brisk northwost wind that at eight o'clock was blowing about ton miles an hour, Tho prospects for a good race aro xcellent, and consequently every ouo lntoroBted was in the bost of humor. The reports roceivod from tho outside Bay that tho wind is heavier there. It is dlroctly off shoro, and consequently there Is little or no swell.

Shoull It hold In the samo direction and iucreaso as tho prospocts now polut, It will be a line cutter day, and the Englishman will have no excuse if ho is loft in tho rear. Tho Judges' boat, Luckenback and tho stakoboat Scandinavian, took tho Galatea and Mayflower, re Bpectlvely, In tow at 10:30 o'clock and headed for tho outside. It Is probable that tho committee will decide to start from Scotland llfjhtship, mako tho run to leeward, and then beat back. Lieutenant Honn was in bed on board whon tho Galatea was taken in tow. lie is sick, but will undoubtedly be on deck during the raco.

The crow of tho cutter are very much dissatisfied with tho way Bovor Wobb has handled tho Galatea during tho two days' trials, and would liko to see Captain Bradford at tho tiller. Tho latter may occupy that position to day. There is lltllo or no betting on tho rosult of to day's raco, as it is genor tlly conceded that tho Mayflower is tho bettor boat. Lieutenant Ilenn, howovor, says that his boat will make a lar better showing to day than she has yet done. Ho has soon the orror of trying to outpoint tbo Mayflower In beating and will probably ordor her head furthor oil than sho lias heretofore sailed.

9:15. The weather is a little hazy now but it will be clear boforo tho yachts cross the starting lino. The vessels aro now well down South Hoach with the Mayllowor woll ahead aud tho Galatoa Is running her bowsprit in a bit, and will then set her Jib. 9:53 Whon Just off tlio Hook tho Galatoa set her mainsail, having declined to throw her Jib out. Tho Mayflower at that time had hor mainmast and Jib set and waa loading the way to tho Scotland lightship.

Tho raco will be twenty milos to leeward from thoro, and a beat back. Tho wind has pretty well died down, and tho atmosphoro Is as clear as crystal. 10 :50 When about a mile and a half outsldo tbo point of the Hook in tbo main ship channol, tho Galatoa signalled tho Luckenback to como alongside. It was found that Lieutenant Honn had become quito sick. He wanted to know whether tho Judges would shorten tho courso to flftoen miles so that ho could get back to Brooklyn early and see a doctor.

Ho was afraid that If the full courso was insisted upon that ho would bo unable to finish tho race, and ho expressed himself as anxious to do so. Theso of tho Judges who woro on board said that thoy did not think that thoy had authority to grant the request, but thnt when thoir colleague camo on board thoy would hold a consultation. Tho line was then thrown off and tho cutter sot her foro staysail and jib. Tho Mayllowor was soon ovorhauled by the Luekonbach.

Lockhard's assistant gave as his opinion that tho filly was suffering from corebro spinal meningitis but his opinion waa not concurred in by other horsemen presont who think tho filly has received Internal injury. The main trouble seems to be with her throat, sho being unable to swallow. A poultice was applied to her throat and othor romedlos used but they afforded no relief. The filly bore up well until last night at 11 o'clock when she became too weak to stand and laid down suffering great agony. Dr.
