A dark horse candidacy for president in the hoDe of bringing the republican par ty harmony constituted the talk of many republican convention dele gates arriving today.

Long Fell Off of Schooner And Died Hefore Wife and Child...' Wilmington, June 13. With his wife, little daughter and father-in-law looking helplessly onr J. H. Long's struggles in the Cape Fear river were futile and he sank from their sight, never again to be seen alive. Long and his family were moving from a sea-coast village to the city, with all their household effects on board his father-in-law's schooner and had arrived at a point 17 miles below Wilmington when the foresail demand immediate at tention. Long ran forward, attend ed to the matter, and as he did so the craft Jibbed and the foresail switched around. At that moment Mrs. Long scream: "Look father!" sne saia in alarm. They all turned and saw the fore sail with all the power of a Btlff breeze slowly but surely shoving the resisting man over the rail. In a moment there was a splash, and as the watchers looked they saw the child, and slid slowly into the waves, struggling. After that followed a race against death with a strong breeze aiding the dread monster. The ; small schooner was turned, and was forc ed to tack from first one side of the channel and then the other back to the place where the unfortunate man was struggling. They had come to the last tack, when the object of their rescue sank. After a few mo ments of anguish for the watching wife and little child he again came to the surface, swam feebly for a few strokes, and as the schooner arrived upon the scene, he gave a despairing glance at his wife and child, and slid slowl yinto the waves. The body has not yet been found. GRACE RECOVERING. 0M'ration Performed For Bullet Finds Spinal Cord is Not Severed Newnan, Ga., June 13.- Eugene H. Grace, who was mysteriously shot at his home In Atlanta last March and who has since been partially paraylzed, was operated on for the removal of the bullet supposed to have severed his spinal cord.

Mrs. Daisy Opie Grace, his wife formerly of Philadelphia who is charged with the shooting. Is now at liberty on bond. Her trial is set for the week of June 24, but devel opments In Grace's condition may result In another postponement. NO MORE FUNDS.

Former Speaker Cannon sought to have the 1250,000 appropriation for the purpose Increased to $325,- 000. This was defeated and a re quest for $200,000 also was lost.

ATHLETES SAIL TOMORROW. Provision For Their Comfort On Trip .', And Abroad. New York, .Tune 13. The Ameri can athletes who sail for Stockholm toi .orrow will travel and live in far greater comfort and have better op portunities for practice than any of the other four teams which the United States has sent across the sea for the Olympic games. By char tering a 'large ocean liner for the exclusive use of the athletes and their followers, the American com mittee has overcome many of the hardships which have beset the oth er Journeys and undoubtedly hand icapped the athletes, although the records of victories necessitate no apologies. Once the athletes have set foot on the steamer Finland at New York tomorrow, they will make the big ship their only home until their re turn early in August. They will be away nearly seven weeks, perhaps longer, but during all that lime it will probably not be necessary 'for them to undergo a single change in diet. At Stockholm they will evade the general scramble for hotel ac commodations by keeping their quarters aboard ship. It Is doubtful if the Atlantic ocean has ever witnessed such an athletic carnival as will take place en route with three score and more sprinters and runners, hurdlers and jumpers and weight men at practice. Trainer Murphy will limit the work to a minimum for training purposes, but even without extra effort It Is cer tain that with so many craek ath letes mid-Atlantic records will all be set anew. The Finland is a much larger craft than those used In previous Olympic trips.- Her main deck is large enough for a track of eight laps t6 the mile, and there Is plenty of room for jumping pits and places for the shot-putters and weight men to work. The boat lias a fine gym nasium and a large swimming tank. It is said that the athletes will not be permitted to wear spiked shoes when running on deck, but the steamship officials have helped by laying a five-foot rubber mat around the furlong circuit of the boat, whlchwlll tend to avert the danger of the runners falling. Big wooden boxes filled with dirt have been placed on board ship as pits for the jumpers and pole vaulters and weight men. ... Ration for Volcano Sufferers, Washington, June 13.
