H.- Harrlman' Arretted at Boat Race Kew York Legislature Ad journs Increase In Franchise Tax. To Determine Mrs. Eddy's Compet ncy In Memory of Longfellow., After iS minutes' deliberation, the Jury Saturday evening returned a verdict of not guilty in the case of ex Judge Wm. G. Loving of Nelson man ager otthe Virginia estate of T F Ryan, who was placed on trial heie last Monday in the circuit co'irt of Halifax .county,- for the murder of Theodore Estes, the son of Sherlif M K.

Harrlman Arrested For Obstruction. Before the greatest crowd that ever witnessed a race on the Thames river the Yale crew, Thursday, averaging 4 strokes to the minute less than Har vard, kept abreast of the brg Cam bridge crew until the last half mile, and then cracked on speed and won a great race by a scant boat length. The race was marked by one dis agreeable incident. This was the ar rest of E. H. Harrlman by Lieutenant Illllurd, President Roosevelt's naval aide. Lieutenant Billard, who was In charge of the revenue cutters, had warned every boat owner not to fol low the race. But It had scarcely been started when Mr. Harrlman, In a powerful motor boat, began to fol low the shells. Lieutenant Billard and Chairman Schweppe, who were aboard the re gatta committee boat, the "Arrow," repeatedly warned the. motor, boat's owner to stop his engines and get off the course. Mr. Harrlman not only paid no attention to them but took a position alongside the referee's boat and held It. Off the navy yard Lieutenant Bil lard signaled fur a launch and tooted tho revenue cutter whistle, which finally caused Mr. Harrlman' to look around. "You are under arrest, sir," shouted tho lieutenant. "You will give your self up to this man who will take you aboard the Gresham to await my or ders." Mr. Harrlman saw no more of the race but was detained as an or dinary prisoner aboard the Gresham until after the race, when Lieut- Bill ard released him. But he ordered Mr. Harrlman's motor boat tied up at the navy yard. This incident may cost Mr. Harrlman a fine .of $500. This was the penalty imposed "on a yacht owner during last year's race for breaking the rules governing the course Long Legislative Session. The 130th regular session of the New York state legislature adjourned without day at 2 p. ni. on Wednes day after almost exactly one half year (2G weeks) of continuous ses sion, the longest regular session ex cepting only that of 1881 since the adoption of the first constitution of the state in 1777. The governor would not discuss the subject of an extra session but there are good reasons to believe that it will not be called until after the Fourth of July. It . Is generally, sup posed that It will be convened in the week following. Practically no serious, effort was made to break the deadlock between the senate and assembly on the sub ject of apportionment and there was no visible efTect of the special mes sage which Governor Hughes sent to both houses Monday .night urging them to pass an apportionment act before . adjournment.
