Pierpont Morgan. The formal challenge will go through the Royal Victoria Yacht club next week as soon as the designer and I shall have the dimensions of the yacht as to the build and other particulars which Is necessary to incorporate in the chal lenge. The yacht will be designed by Soper, and.it will b built at Fay's yard in Southampton. I can give you no further particulars, as they are not settled yet. "Shall you make it a condition that the races for the America's cup must be held elsewhere than in the vicinity of New York? " was asked. "Certainly not," replied Mr. Rose. "I hall make no conditions, though of course I am most anxious that the races shall be held where there will be no chance of in terference, and I have no doubt that the New York committee feel the same way." "It was feared," observed the inter viewer, "that the recent fiasco would pre vent any Englishman from challenging again." "Oh, no," said Mr. Rose, "the affair is regretted on both sides. A certain amount of friction is inseperable from all inter national sporting contests, but that will not deter us from trying again."

Fort Smith, Ark., Sept. 23. The trial of the Blackstone trrain robbers, "Buz" Lucky and James Dyer, in the United States court here, has resulted in their con viction. Dyer was an organizer of outlaw bands and planned more successful train robberies tlan any other man in America. All of the larger jobs of the Starr and Chaney gangs had their origin in Dyer's brain. The BentonvUle bank robbery, the Caney, Kan., bank robbery, the M., K. & T. tram robbery at Prior Creek and Black etome, and the K., A. & A. train robbery at Coweta were some of his works.

When Miss Jennie Brown awoke she discovered that during the night some one who had come in through the window had cut off her hair, which had been the envy of all the women in the town.

I ordered the engine to slow down, and proceeded on our course, hearing two whistles from the cruiser, to which we re plied. Turning into the harbor, and keep ing in sight on our starboard the green Hght of the cruiser, we whistled twice again, thus indicating that we were turn ing into the harbor, when suddenly ail the Ughts of the cruiser were put out. i "I immediately ordered the engineer to steam backwards, but itr was of no avail, for the steamers colUdcd. I ordered boats to be lowered and life preservers to be thrown overboard. After the collision I ordered the engines to go ahead, my inten tion being to try to run the -Barciegul ashore. I eoon found, however, that thi could not. be done with safety to ths Mortera. Backing off from the cruiser, the Barcastegui sank almost instantly."
