As th-' ya. hts approached th- outer mark a stream of signal flags were se t on the revenue cutter Gresham. the flagship of the patrol fleet, instructing th.-m in the universal language of the s.-a to change direction by the right flank. The patrol boats swung around t line west and charged dow n upon th- excursion fleet The latter, with bells t hinging in the engine rooms fcr more speed, turned tail and the whole r'.eef. rushed madly to leew ard of the last leg of the course. Th- racers gybed over their big booms nnd w-nt careening fop the second mark, th.- c'olumbia gaining slowly, but su-.-ly They had covered the first ten ii. ;!es ln a little over ."' minutes.

I'.oth yachts heeled until th--ir under-b-i ii- s were lifted high over the wafer an 1 th--ir lee rails dipped a foot into th..- swirling billows. In five minutes after rounding the s- -'on 1 mark it was apparent that the " "lumbia was footing faster and point in h:gh-r. She went through Sham rock s l-e I.ke a quarted horse. The rush of the leviathans on the final ta. k was magnificent. The excur sion boats, black with people from gunwals to pilot house, gathered about the finish In a great horseshoe. As th- white flyer came on with a big bone m h--r t-'.-th well in the load, th-? latri"!;.- skippers with th-ir hands on th-ir whistle cords could hardVy re strain themselves. As she swept across the finish the din -a as soul destroying. Whistles split th -ear and steam sirens wailed drowning the crash of the bands and the i-heer.s of the people The concert of sound as terrific. I'ntil after the gallant Shamrock, beaten but not disgraced, crossed a minute and eighteen seconJ later, w histles and seirons were k jpt going. When they- died away the bands could be heard playing.

H-- added that th-re would be no changts ln tii.- trim in th- sails of tt.e Sha mrock. The tow mit of the racers from their ant horag- to the starting line was de void f any irit-rest.

To. ark the wind freshened, ia with a lesser sail spread tand stifTer than her rival. but th- :-.- was little to h"ose between '. th-m Th-y smothered along toward ' th-- mai k and w h- ti th.-y rounded it the : Columbia hud gained only twenty-two sceeonds. FIl THE SEC.tND STAKE-Th-- gybe on both crafts was well done. I'nder the same sail as they j started they both stood for the second ; mark. The wind piped stronger and ln the strongest of the puffs the Sham-I rook had to luff a litlie to ease her to ! the force of the breeze. The Columbia, on the contrary, was allowed to feel the full power of every pcfuall. never' being eased and it was that which helped her ahead. In spite of the large ' sail spread of h-r antagonist she was 1 never left behind, but kept up with the chalb-nger. It became apparent at the time that the Columbia had sailed over one-half of the second leg that she had saved h--r time and wao. barring accidents, winning. Her skipper, in- : stead of nursing her through the' squalls, let h- r feel the strength of , them, while the Shamrock's larger; spread of sail c aused her tea make im- j perative luffs or else carry away some i thing. In a reaching breeze c loser and finer . sailing perhaps was never seen. There ! were frequent occasions when the col- i lapse of a topmast seemed almost due; ! but everything hung on j Now the second mark was in sight ! and at 1 2 : 4 -" the jib-topsails wore dows ed on both yachts and th-v luffed; round it. the Shamrock ln the lead. ! but the watches showing the Colum bia's gain on this leg to he thirty c onds. TO THE FINISH It was now a dead beat to windward to the finish line. The Columbia was now- the leading craft from the mathe mati.al point of view. She hnd gained on roth legs and also nau ner time al lowance of 4?. seconds to help her. Thus if she could hold her own to the finish the race Teas hers. ln rounding the mark the boats split tracks, the Sham rock standing on the starboard tack for a few hundred yards. The Colum bia went on the port tack a while and then at 1:06 both were on tho starboard tack. Then began a splendid thresh to windward. The Columbia out-point ed the Shamrock, hut the challenger seemed to be going a little faster. At 1.1." o'clock the Columbia ran like a streak of lightning through the lee of the Shamroc k, luffed out across her how and for the first time in the race she was leading and the windward boat At 1:20 o'clock both yachts went on the port tack standing toward the Long island shore. There was little or no difference between them on this board. At 1 : T.7 both went on the starboard tack for the finishh line. Then came the biggest puff of all. The Sham rock had three or four strakes of the deck under water but ran risks hopinP to diminish her defeat or even to win; but It was In vain. She made ..... - . , 41 1 - up a little or ner leeway oui me v o lumbia crossed the line a winner and time to spare. .

London October 3. 10:10 p. m- The extent of Great Britain's disappoint ment at the defeat today of i he Sham rock can be thoroughly appreciated only by those who saw the thousands of spectators lining the embankment. Almost to a man they were expectant of victory. The Shamrock's lead in the early part of the day so str ?ngth-?n-d this impression that London threaten ed a repetition of Mafeking n.ght. The crowds greeted the green lights on tr. e towers and on the launches which pa raded the Thames, with will delight But Columbia's red slowly crept up. and motor cars with megaphones dash ed up and down the embankment pro claiming Columbia's lead. The yachts in the Thames reversed the position or their lights and these on the signal towers were changed. The crowds stood mute, awaiting the final messages. America's cup dinners were adverti.l at the embankment hotels and over looking the river many fashionable peo ple dined, watching the moving lights until red. from all sides was flashed out. "Columbia wins," was shouted through the corridors and the throngs d ispersed. EPISCOPAL CONVENTION IIou-o of Deputies at Work on Pro posed Ameudnionts to Couxtl tutloon San Francjsco, October 3. In con , junction with the -opening of the trien 1 nial convention of the Episcopal ; Church of America, today a thanksgiv ; lng service was held in Grace church 1 at which the missionary offering of the ! women's auxiliary, amounting to $104, 2Cfi was presented and was received with heartfelt expressions of thanks ine sessions of the convention were devoted e ntirely to business. After the announcement of the standing commit tees a discussion of the proposed amendments to the constitution was begun and continued with much ear nestness until evening. The result of the day's work was the adoption of the first seven articles, which were pro posed in the general convention of 1S9S. Several resolutions were introduced in the house of deputies and referred to the committee on the PraVer Book. They were in reference to a change in the title page of the Prayer Hook, by the Rev. P. P.. W. Taylor, suggesting the insertion of the words: "Holy Catholic church according" to the use cf" before the words "Protes tant Episcopal church In the United States of America-" It was resolved to draw up suitable resolutions regarding the death of th l.tt-- President - McKinley. which shall be finally adopted by a rising vote. In accordance with Dr. Huntington's resolution, the amendments to the con stitution wore then taken up. The first four resolutions were adopted. Article V, providing for the erection of new diocese from missionary juris diction by the division of existing dio- re ami by tho Junc tion of two or more diocese, was taken up. The prin cipal change from the old constitution is in giving greater facility ir the for mation of diocese from missionary jur isdictions. The further consideration f this article was postponed until next Wednesday because its adoption now might work a hardship on one or two new dioceses, which are tea ask for ad mission to union with the general con vention at this session. Article VI, providing for the est lishmt-nt of missionary districts, sim ply makes constitutional law what be fore hail been only canon law. It was ad -pted by a unanimous vote. I r.

"We learn on very high authority." says The Daily Chronicle this morning, "that a sudden and complete collapse- of Boer resist ance and the speedy termination of the war in South Africa are anticipated. Tho attacks on Fort Itala a.ad Moed w ill and the other recent .engagements are regarded as the last desperate ef forts of jnen who are wearied by the struggle and tired of being hunted. 'Therefore, beyond sending drafts to compensate for losses by casualties and disease there is no intention to dispatch further reinforcements or lo employ Indian troops, as rumored, for guard ing the lines of communication." Commenting editorially upon this in formation. The Daily Chronicle, whil admitting that there js much to be said for the "sanguine view taken by the war office." reminds the govern ment of previous miscalculations and warns ministers that it is their duty no longer to trade on chances, but to make success, humanely speaking, certain.

GIVING ORDERS TO THE OREGON VI- Wag Signals as to Manner of At tack ou the Colon Schley Perfectly Selt-Possessed During tlio Hattle. Sampson Notified by Schley, July 4ud of -moke In Harbor Indicating; I'rep oratiou for Sallfuir of Spanish Fleet. Cubans Slfimi i:itt L'udor the Mi-Culla Code. Washington, October 3. After Lieu tenant Doyle, formerly of Commodore Schley's llagship, the Brooklyn, ha 1 completed his testimony before the Schley court of inquiry today. Captain Wm. C. Dawson, of the marine corps was celled, and he was followed by Lieutenant Charles D. Dyson, of the bureau of steam engineering of the navy department. Lieutenant Dyson was introduced to testify concerning the coal supply of the flj'ing squadron, but the court adjourned for the day before he could be heard. At the opening of court Lieutenant Doyle resumed his testimony. Mr. Rayner asked whether the Brooklyn had engaged in any bombard ment during the month of June, 1S9S. Judge Advocate Lemly objected, but Admiral Dewey said that if the ques tion was conlirmed to the Brooklyn there would be no objection. Mr. Rayner modified his question and Lieutenant Doyle repi.ed that on June 6th the Socapa battery had replied spiritedly, but soon went out of busi ness. Mr. Raynor asked: "What was Ad miral Schley's conduct and bearing at any time either during the bombard ments or during the battle of July 3rd when his ship was under fire?" "He always struck me as being just about as well self-possessed as it was possible for anybody to be under these circumtances." Mr. Raynor then asked the witness whether on July 2, l$i)S, he served smoke coming from had ob Santiago harbor over Zocopa hill. Captain Lemly objected, contend' tig that the certain effect of such ques tions would be to open the gates lor interminable inquiry and that if one side should enter upon such questions the other must also be allowed to do so. They did not object except for the lea son of the time involved. Mr. Raynor was then permitted to ask his question which he did in the following: "Was the smoke observed on July 2nd by Commodore Schley eommunicated to the squadron?'' The reply was: "Smoke was observ ed rising in the harbor on July 2nd and my impression now is and always has been since that night that that infor mation was conveyed to the commander-in-chief." The witness was then requested to give a brief account of the part taken by the Brooklyn in the battle of July ?.rd which he did, repeating much that he had said yesterday. After stating the preliminaries, Lieu tenant Doyle related his observations of the battle in the following language: I fired the left gun first, and Kalu ga n shortly afterwaru fired th- right one. Then we began fo load the guns again. It was necessary then, after loading the gams a second time to turn the turret directly ahead as our ship was apparently shutting the enemy out by turning with a starboard helm. Immediately after firing that left gun the second time, the order was to man the starboard battery. I got out of the turret through the roof, that being the most convenient way of get ting out and crossed over to the star board turret. As I was going into the starboard turret I had an opportunity to see the Spanish ships. They were then a little off our starboard bow. As soon as 1 had charge of the controller. which up to this time had been in charge of Mr. Woodward, I swung the turret around on the starboard bow. In the meantime some of our forward guns had fired. The volume of smoke was so great that it must have come from one of the eight-inch guns of the forward turret, so I was entirely shut out from seeing the enemy. While the guns were in this position Mr. Ma son, our executive officer passed down the starboard gangway, calling, 'sharp on the starboard quarter.' The interval of time from the time the guns were on the starboard bow or starboard quarter, I think must have been two minutes- I swung the guns around to the star board quarter and then we picked up the enemy. The range at which I fired, to the best of my memory, was about 400 yards and from then on is was a constant fire, training the guns until we finally got therrt on the starboard beam. The range increased up to 2.000 yards and during the run after being parallel with the Spanish ships the range varied from about 3.000 to 1.300. I think avhen the Vizcaya avent into shore the range then was about 1.S00 yards. Just immediately before she turned in she made a sheer with her starboard held apparently coming to ward us, and then immediately put her helm around the other way and went in shore. From then on it was a chase after the Colon.'' Descrlbi.g the chase of the Colon, Lieutenant Doyle said: "The Span'sh ship had secured a lead of five or six miles. The order was given to cease firing and to come out of the turrets and take a 'spell,' during the chase of the Colon. The Oregon during that chase and while ave were on the top of the turret ws directed to try ner 13-inch guns on the chase, which he did and the shots fell short. In a little while they were tried again and came a little closer." Admiral Dewey: "Directed by whom ?" "By Commodore Schley, sir, by wig wag signal, as I remember it." Admiral Dewey: "You saw that signal?" "Yes, sir, I saw the signal being made." Admiral Benham: "Did you read the signal?" T did not, but I understood what it REBUILD THE KIDNEYS Any kidney or bladder trouble is a serious om? and should have early and right attention The kidneys are slow to yield to disease and avhen they do, overwork is the usual cause. An af fected kidney is an exhausted one, im pure blood has weakened it; the rem edy needed is one that will restore strength and rebuild the kidney itself. This. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic will do. It has been doing it for forty-five years and no other remedy has ea-er been held In such universal favor. The kidneys filter impurities out of the blood. Yv hen the blood is bad the kidneys get clogged with these poisons. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic cures by neu tralizing the impurities, by hastening their expulsion, by building up the tis sues of the kidneys, and by giving these troubles it is also repairing all the delicate machinery of the body. This is the best of all tonics. It does everything that any ordinary tonic can do and very many important things that other remedies cannot do. Nor can it do anything but good; it is ab solutely harmless, and can be given to support the strength and to hasten the cure of any invalid, young or old. Or dinary iron sometimes harms, but the iron in Harter's Tonic is in such form that it does no harm. It enriches the blood, strengthens the stomach, and aids digestion.

THE SIGNALS SCHLEY WAS KEPT .Lieutenant Doyle during cross exam- lation said that while he had seen tho mat shore lights at night at Cienfuegos he had never suspected that they were signals. He told of seeing three horse men on the shore during the day time. "We regarded them as Spanish caval ry," he said, "and they were so brazen that some one suggested that ave should stir them up a bit, but We did not fire at them " In response to Mr. Kanna's questions. Lieutenant Doyle said that upon ap proaching Santiago on the evening of May 2Mh the squadron had lain to for the night about seven miles off Santia go, but he thought that the Martle-hea-J and the Vixen had been placed on pocket duty fur the night. The log, however, showed no record of this lat ter fast. The afternoon session began with in quiries concerning the wig-wag signals to the Oregon from the Brooklyn to fire her 13-inch guns. The witness sa'd that he was sure that. he had seen the signal ty.ade, but that he was unable to find an entry of the signal in the ship's log. Reading the log he found a notion of several signals and then a note saying that "other unimportant signals had been made." Mr. Hanna inquired avhether the wit ness thought the signal to the Oregon was included in that light. Lieutenant Doyle replied that it might be. that he could not say how the log writer had regarded the matter. Mr. Hanna; "You haae spoken of the appearance of smoke in the harbor and of the action taken by the Brook lyn with respect thereto. Was any er -try made in the log of the occurrence?" "I find none." Captain Lemly asked what efforts had been made by the Hying squadron to discover the whereabouts of tha Spanish fleet while the squadron lay off Cienfuegos before the arrival of Captain McCalla. J.he witness replied that there had been no effort except in making inquir ies of the captfTin of the British vessel Adula. Captain Lemly then asked for an ex planation of what the witness meant yesterday when he thought that lust after the begining of the battle of July 3rd there was a prospect of a "melee." "I thought," responded the witness, "that the ships were coming right to ward us. I thought they would f,et into us and I thought we would have a mix up, as they were only about 1, 400 yards distant." Judge Advocate: "Do you mean that the course of the Brooklyn took her across the Spanish line and that sha necessarily maneuvered so as to make a turn to avoid that?" "That is w-hat I mean." "What orders were given by signal from the Brooklyn to the fleet during the action, of July 3rd?" "I do not know, except what I have ah-rady testified to about the wig-avag." OTHER WITNESSES. Lieutenant Commander Clifford J. Boush. who had made for the court the large charts of the positions of the ves sels of the American squadron while off Santiago, was called to identify these charts and to state the data upon which they were prepared. Captain William C. Dawson said he had noticed the Brooklyn when that vessel turned to the southward- He had supposed the ship avas injured and had gone out of action. He thought she avent 2.0fto yards or more to the south. Lieutenant Dyson took the stand and shortly afterward the court adjourned. Lewis Ookerman, !
