tall athletic looking man, about 40 jeari
of age, with a bronzed face. He was a.sked
for particulars regarding his challenge for
the America's cup, and replied:
"Yes, I am going to challong3 for the
cup. a nave sent a preliminary message
to the secretary of the New York Yicht
club, and I have communicated with Mr.
J. 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."

The Field as being prepared to build a cut

- . Train Bobbers Convicted.
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. Dyer's

Neligh, Neb., Sept. 23. This city has
been the scene of one of the most peculiar
crimes in the history of thi3 state, and
there is no clew to the identity of the per
petrator. The entire family of W. O.
Brown have been worn out with watching
at the bedside of a sick child, and when an
opportunity offered slept more soundly
than usual. 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. One half of it was gone, the thief
evidently being afraid to disturb her suffi
ciently to procure the portion from the
other side of her head.

Havana, Sept. 20. The Spanish war
ship Sanchez Barcastcgul, with Admiral
Delgado Parejo on board, was struck by
the incoming coasting steamer Mortera in
front of Moro Castle, and sank almost in
stantly. Admiral Parejo and forty-six of
theVrew of the warship, including Cap
tain Ybanez and three other officers, were
drowned. The remainder of the crew, 116
in number, -were saved. The 'bodies of
Admiral Ptvrejo and Captain Ybanez were
recovered. The body of the captain was
horribly mutilated, the head and arms
having been eaten away by sharks.- Divers
are examining the hull of the Barcastegui.
Captain Yinal, of the steamer Mortera,
In the course of an interview today, said
that when he was within two mile of the
entrance of the harbor he saw ahead on
his starboard a green light, which he pre-
sumed was that of a steamer leavingjPort.
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."
The cause of the extinguishment of the
lights on board the cruiser, ' which was de
scribed by Captain Vinal, and which un
doubtedly was the cause of the collision,
engines to sav
was occasioncHi Dy rne stopping oi iuo
e the life of a sailor whose
arm hadlxxm causrht in the dynamo.
Admiral Delgado Parejo was the last
man to leavJ the cruiser, being ta,ken off
in a row boat , which was about to start
for shore when the suction Occasioned by
the sinking of the Barcastegui carried the
boat down and all on board were drowned. (
The total loss of life is now set at forty-seven.-
" j ;- .
The archbishop of Santiago de Cuba and
the bishop of Havana . have sent wreaths
to be placed on the coffin of Admiral
Parejo. The gay streamers and flags that
have decorated the city in welcome of the
soldiers who have arrived from Spain,
have been taken down and replaced by
draperies of black. The city is in mourn
ing throughout for the admiral and the,
officers and crew of the Barcastegui. ,
The Steamer Edam Lost.
LOOT)ON, Sept. 20. The steamer Edam,

Turkestan was lost in the dense fog and
not seen afterwards. Every one on the
