VALKYRIE TO TRY AGAIN.
Will Meet Defender if the New Challenger
I.oses-The Kaecs to lie Sailed in New
York-Real Ken-ton for Leaving the
Yacht Here.
New York, Sept. 26. When It was an
nounced today that Valkyrie III would
remuln In this country during the win
ter, and would be laid up in the Erie
basin, there was much surprise among
the. majority of yachtsmen at the sud
den Changs in Lord Dunraven's plans.
Anions' others 'there wns not so much
astonishment, as the reason for the
The statement was made this morn-
nir hv H Iulrlnriil 1vJrMv l-hii hn
been Lord Dunraven's representative
In this country, that Lord Dunraven
had concluded to leave Valkyrie In this
country on the possibility of a race or
a series of races with 'Defender for
some of the cups or stakes which had
teen offered since the last race for the
I America's cup, oi for use as a trial boat
i for Distant Shore when she came here
to prepare for the race next year.
Mr. Kersey further suggested that In
case Valkyrie should be used to test the
speed of Distant fthore and should de
monstrate her superior speed the cup'
qommittee m'ight be induced to accept
her as a challenger in the place of the
new boat. These reasons answered for
the majority of yachtsmen, but those
who have been In vNew-port and have
seen more or less of IT'd Dunraven
Irnrtitr that thav Miia rtrlt Fha raal umiB.i
of the change.
I Is known that Lord Dunraven still
bellevf s that Valkyrie1 Is faster than
Defender, and Miat with a clear course
he could win In lihe kind of weather
wf.'Ich prevailed on I'he last two days
of tihls year's race. He Avants to race
against Defender again, and for the
America's cup, and probably will be ac-
The question of the course has been
satisfactorily arranged. Lord Dunra--en
Is willing to accept the statement
of the committee that they will do their
best to keep the Handy Hook course
clear, and now. believes that they will
have little trouble In so doing. This
was a sine qua non for the races, as no
other course will be chosen for Ameri
ca's cup races, and they will be fully
Informed of the dates for the matches:
it is believed that a patrol fleet can
be brought together which will keep the
course clear even if the captains of the
excursion boats have not learned a les
son from the races this fall.
Defender will he chosen to race
against Distant Shore and Valkyrie
without doubt, as the owners of the
latest creation of Herreshoff are fully
convinced that she is the fastest yacht
afloat. v
TJiere will,' therefore, be plenty of
racing nett year, and Instead of a post
ponement of America's cup races for
many years, as was thought likely
when, the last resulted In such a fiasco,
next - year will see two race in one
season for the' same cup, provided, of
course, Distant Shore does not save
Lord Dunraven the trouble of racing.
It Is the genera opinoln, however,
among yachtsmen that Mr. Watson is
the best designer 1n England, and that
If his boats cannot win the cup no
others can,

SPRUCE IV WINS.
Norve and Muck of the English Captain
Gives Him Deserved Victory
Center Island, li. Y.. Sept. 2. To
day's race between half raters Ethel
wynn and Spruce IV was won by the
latter, the owner of Ethelwynn with
drawing at the end of the first round,
when she was ten minutes behind
Spruce.
Mr. Field, Ethelwynn's owner, who
was one of the crew, declared it was
no fit place for small 1oats on account
of the stiff breeze, and said he did not
care to risk his life for any cup which
might be thus won. Captain Brand, on
the other hand, sailed the race like a
hardy sailor, and is justly entitled to
a victory bucked by nerve and pluck.

Uueenstown. Sent. 26. The steamer Ma
jestic, from New York, arrived here at 3.15
o'clock yesterday morning. Hailmaker
ttatsey and seventeen members of the
crew of the yacht Valkyrie 111. who were
on board the .Majestic, are unanimous in
tneir express:on or indignation that the
Valkyrie should have been hampered as
she was by excursion boats and other
craft. In an interview with a, representa
tive or the Central News today. Commo
dore Glennle said that he did not attach
much inmortnnce to the challenge, of
Charles D. Rose for the America's cup.
Me niso expressed nis neher that Lord
Dunraven's colors would never be Been
In America again.
The wearers of bloomers and so-callel
ratlonnl dress" can ouote at least ono
clergyman as authority for their cos
tumes, in the course or an Interesting
sermon the Itev. Robert Jones, pastor ot
the Williams Avenue Methodist Kpiscopal
church, Brooklyn, said: "Woman's dre.s
on the wheel is a subject of criticism, and
gives rise to the question, hat Is a ra
tional dress?" Any wheel costume Is
more sensible than the trailing skirts thnt
sweep the dust and dirt of our sidewalks.
Wheel dress even in the extreme is not
as rank in Its tendency toward immodesty
as the modern bathing suit, opera or ball
dress. A wheelwoman should always be
dressed In a womanly way as far as possi
ble, with convenience In movement and
propriety In appearance. Any extreme to-
ward masculine style or dress may com
promise her womanly honor and grace."
"It will be a great day for the orioles
when the thing Is decided." writes 8am
Crane, "and if they win, next Monday
night will see some high old times In th-i
Tenderloin. I cannot see where
or how It will benefit the game a little bit
If the Clevclands win. As between the
two cities, Baltimore Is certainly entitled
to first honors. Kven when the Spiders
were In the lead during the season and
fighting hard to hold it, a crowd of 500 at
the games n Cleveland was about the
average. In Baltimore the average was
nearer o.wh, and possibly more. Where
people tire ready and anxious to support
the game and do so, they certainly de
serve more than a city that doesn't even
appreciate a good thing. I should prefer
that the Phillies should win In preference
to the Baltimore just on this account.
No city In the country has supported Its
team like the Quaker City. It would give
the game a great boom there, ond serve
to remind players that the famous Orioles
are not Invincible. Manager Te-
beau, or the Clevelnnds, seems to Imagine
that he can run Anson as he Pleases.
The Clevelunds have a postponed game
with the Chinagos, which Is due to be
played, If played at all, In Chicago. 'Patsy'
at nrsi wanted tne game to no played in
Cleveland, and no doubt wondered why
It wasn't agreed to by every club In the
league. Now Tebenu wnnts the ar
rangement of the game left undecided
until It Is seen whether It will influence
his chances for the ponnant for good or
evil. If It Is necessary to win the gamo
to win the rhnmnioiishlo he wants to
play It; If not, he does not. This has a lit
tle tinge or injustice about it, and will
not have a good effect In the east. An
son saw the danger of entering Into any
such arrangement and sat down on tho
scheme at once. lb said: 'Anse will
have something to say about that game.'
Tebeau should either arrange to play the
game on some particular duy or throw It
up entirely."

A HEAP oFtROI'BLE.
Property Owners on Clay Avenue Com
plain Against Paving Methods and Are
Waiting to Know What the City Is Going
to IK About It.
There seems to be 'big trouble ahead
for sonifbody in connection with the
arilhalt iavement being laid on Clay
avenue between Olive and Pine streets,
und for the sake of 'bdtter explanation
the prospective trouble can be put un
der two 'heads:
Firs';, t'he most serious dllliculty Is
Involved In a letter to the mayor from
Lemuel Ammermuii, one of the prop
enty owners, who alleges that the work
Is not .being done according to the
ppeclllcatlons and that the specifica
tions have been grossly violated; sec
ond, all 'the property owners In the
block signed a remonstrance addressed
to councils and protesting against the
laying of brk'k gutters, for vhlih pro
visions were made in the paving ordin
ance and contraot. although t'he origin
al petition for the pavement called for
asphalt only. The work is being done
by "the iHarber Asphalt Javlng com
pany. The gutter protest Was (favorably
considered by councils last night, al
though some memlbers seemed disposed
to let the property owners whistle. Mr.
Sanderson, 'Mr. Chittenden nnd Mr.
Roche, however, championed t'he1 re
monstrance and brought a'bout a unani
mous assent.
What Mr. Ammcrman Says.
Mr. Ammcrman maintains that ln
sutllcient cement, a poor quality of
sand and watery mortar have been
used In laying the concrete base, and
that the map 'lias been allowed to dry
without being protected by canvas or
boards from the action of wind and sun,
although tho specifications explicitly
provide that this precaution shall be
taken. The speclflcaitlon.s further pro
vide ttrat the concrete tfhall be five
Inches thick, but an examination of the
work already performed does not re
veal a dt'iftih of over four inches.
The allegations made In Mr. Ammer
man'B letter addressed to'the mayor (a
similar one was sent to the Barber
company) seem to be borne out by an
Inspection of the work last night.
The complaint made caused the su
perintendent In charge to have mortnr
of proper quality poured over some ot
the weak spots yesterday In an attempt
to stiffen ifhe mass. This method ap
pears to have sealed the surface where
It was applied.
Mr. Amimerman, In his objections to
the quality of tihe work, has announced
his Intention of refusing to pay his
assessment unless the matter Is prop
erly remedied, and cither property own
ers have announced their Intention of
taking the same course. The matter
will pro'foUt'y be referred 'by Mayor
Ponnell to City Engineer Phillips and
City Solicitor Torrey.
Cause of tho Complaint.
The protest of the property owners
against the brick gutters was not
made on the ground of non-stability
or through faulty construction;
In fact, the gutters) have not been laid.
The r?monstranee cited that tho peti
tion for a pave was for asphalt and
for asphalt only: and that the property
owners did not want a pavement with
an ugly red border on each side. The
paper didn't read that way, but that Is
What It mpant.
The property owners will, figurative
ly, be lying bdhlnd 'breastworks today
and waiitlng to see what the city of
ficials are going to do about Mr. Am
meiman's complaint.
ONLY $5.R(M IN DISPUTE.
City Controller and Bridge Company Have
a Little Misunderstanding,
There Is a little misunderstanding of
$5,500 between the city and the Kdge
Moor Bridge company.
Last Saturday a steel Inspection
agency of New York city forwarded a
bill for the above amount to City Con
troller Widmayer. The bill was for the
Inspection at the mill of Iron used by
the Edge iMoor company In building the
Linden Street 'bridge. A clause In the
bridge contract provides that all fees
for Inspection f.hall be pnld by the com
pany, so the city controller on Monday
wrote the company asking whether
they desired the bill forwarded to them
or preferred to have the $5,500 deducted
from the amount due them.
Yesterday a letter signed by Mr.
Morse, president of the company, was
received stating that the bill Is none
of theirs and that the city will have
to father It. This last chapter In the
correspondence does not alter the city
cniiti oiler's opinion and the matter will
probably be allowed to rest after an
other letter has been sent the company,
suggesting that It read Its contract.
DUNMORE.
William Stanton, of Whitney Point,
N. Y Is spending a few days with
friends in this place, while on his way

of a very pretty wedding last night,
the ceremony being performed at 8
o'clock by Wev. J. W. Williams, pastor
of the Dunmore Prebyterlan church,
the contracting parties being Miss
Jennie Skeoch and Thomas Jeffrey, of
Kingston. Miss Katie Jeffrey, sister of

iThe West Side Interests of The Tribune
have been placed In the hands of Emer
son Owen, to whom all news announce
ments and complaints may be addressed.
In honor of his return from a tour of
the European continent, Franklin
Unwell, a prominent resident of this
side, was honored with a reception last
evening conducted by Miss Jennie
Howell, at the Seranton street home.
The affair was a society event and was
participated In by the West Side elite.
In the afternoon Miss Howell enter
tuintd the friends of .Miss Amy Will
iams, whose marriage to Will Wright,
of Frost burg, 'Md.. is announced as an
event of tine r.iear future.
Miss Williams Is very popular among
a select coterie of associates. At the
event of yesterday, which partook of
the nature of an afternoon tea, an en
Joya.ble time was enjoyed by our prom
inent young people.
Disgraceful Actions.
Two girls, tach about 15 years of age,
were arrest d last night. Young as
they are, frequent complaints have
been made against the girls for disor
derly conduct, and last nlttht they were
seen In company with three well-known
young men, whose names are In the
hands of the police. The five were in
an old shanty, at tine Oxford mine. A
pail of beer wus In evidence and the
carousal aroused the neighlmrs so thnt
Information was furnished against
them. Lieutenant Williams anil Offi
cers Marker ami Peters raided the
place. The boys escaped, but after a
long chase over the culm dump the two
girls were captured ami placed In the
station house for the night. The un
fortunate captives cried for mercy. One
was afraid of 'her parents, but the
other feared the public disgrace which
is to follow.
In Honor of Miss Thompson.
Miss K'thel ninker. a popular young
lady of this side, entertained a few of
her hofts of friends last evening at a
party given in honor of Miss Harriet
Thompson, who is visiting her from
her home at East Stroudnburg. The
evening was made delightful by songs
by the well-known baritone, Robert
James. Refreshments were served!
Those present were: Misses Nellie
Hells, Mattle Davis, Hertiha Whettllng,
PrertruJe Williams, fiertrude Lloyd.

Will 'Davis. Tom Heels. Frank Jones
and George Whettllng.
Thnt Word "Coming."
A paragraph In Wednepday's Trlbunp
referred to Reeve Jones ns a "coming"
pianist. The word on the face of It
does not carry the meaning intended.
Asa pianist Wr. Jones long ago earned a
reputation as a brilliant performer, but
his friends believe that his present
standing Is not the top. They are of
the opinion that Reeve Jones will reach
the very height. He Is young and
shows every Indication of great posl
hillties. The West Side Is proud of Me.
Jones and looks with anxious eyes to
his future success.
Pcnth of James Gardner. .
James Oardner.. of 3r,7 North Hyde

of heart trouble. Deceased was f5

Slgnnls on tho Hcndhnm Line.
The Seranton Traction company has
placed signals along the Rendhnm line,
one at Hampton street, at Bellevue, at
the farm house witch, at Taylor school
and at Rendham. The greatest care
must be taken to be on time, as It Is
dlfllcult to get iback to the regular run
If time Is lost. Yesterday the signals
