Prohibition National Ticket Retired Minister Shot to Death Six Per aona Killed at Crossing Steve Ad ams Acquitted Execution of Fa ther Helnrich's Murderer. A serious controversy has arisen between the American athletes and the British Olympic association. The trouble arose over the tug of war. The Americans, In wearing ordin ary Bhoes, naturally believed that the teams representing the United King dom would do the same, particularly as the rulo under which the contest was being conducted was made by the British association. Their disap pointment, therefore, was all the grcuter when upon the Liverpool po lice appearing it was noticed that they were wearing enormous shoes, fo heavy In fact that It was with great effort they could lift their feet from the ground. The shoes, or boots, were enormous calf affairs that could not by any stretch of imagination he called or dinary shoes. Heavy boots are worn In the British navy, but theHe were greatly exceeded in weight by the footgear of the Liverpool athletes, which In addition had steel rings around the heels. The facts In the case were reported to the American committee and James E. Sullivan, the American commission er, preferred a formal protest to the British Olympic association, who turn ed It over to the ofllcials of the Ama teur Athletic association. As these officials already had decided In favor of their own team, the protest of course was not allowed. Prohibition National Ticket. For president, Eugene W. Chaftn of Chicago; for vice president, Aaron S. Watkins of Ada. O. This ticket was nominated by the Prohibitionists' national convention at Columbus, O., and both nominations were made unanimous. The full en dorsement of the convention was not, however, given to Mr. Chafln until aft er three ballots had been taken. On the first two ballots Mr. Chafln did not show a great amount of strength, receiving but 195 out of 1. 083 votes on the first and 376 out of 1,087 on the second ballot. His nomi nation was assured, however, when the roll call began for the third ballot. His own state, which had largely vot ed for Daniel R. Sheen of Peoria, and the New York delegation, which had voted for A. L. Manierre, followed by those of Indiana and Wisconsin, came over to Mr. Chafln and on the third ballot he received a total of 636 votes. The strongest competitor of Mr. Chafln was Rev. William B. Palmore of St. Louis, who received 274 votes on the first ballot, and a comparative ly small vote after It wa9 evident that the nomination of Mr. Chafln could not bo prevented. It was then decided to make Mr. Palmoro the vice presidential nomi nee, and he was named by acclama tion. He declined to accept the office. Three men were then named for vice president, Professor Watkins, T. B. Domaree of Kentucky and Charles S. Holler of Indiana. The ballot re sulted in the nomination of Professor Watkins by an overwhelming majori ty and he was Immediately thereafter, upon motion of the Kentucky dele gates, made the unanimous choice of the convention. Both the presidential and vice presi dential nominees are candidates for governors in their respective states on the Prohibition ticket. Retired Minister Shot to Death. F. B. D. Prlckett, a retired minister of the Methodist Episcopal church and former recorder of Metuchen, N. J., was shot down and killed In the Btreet near his home. Archie Her ron, charged with the shooting, stood at the head of the stairs In his home with a drawn revolver to defy arrest, but finally surrendered when the offi cers told him he would be taken dead or alive no matter how many he killed.

She asked Herron what he had done and he replied that she would find out soon enough. Three Men Killed by Explosion.

The box containing the caps was landed in the forenoon from the Hamburg-American line steamer Bethania, and taken into the compartment or locker of the pier for inspection.

Nickerson and Mason, customs in spectors, were hurled against the sldu of the shed and almost instantly killed. Atwood, the watchman, was picked up unconscious. He barely lived to reach a hospital. The others were found lying about the floor of the lock er In a bruised and dazed condition. The explosion set a portion of the shed on fire, but the flames were soon extinguished.

Canada's trade with Barbados is on ly 7'4 per cent. America has 40 per cent and Great Britain 45 per cent. The new tariff extends to goods from all British countries and will benefit Great Britain, at the expense of the American manufacturer, quite as much if not more than Canada.

Sheppard, of New York, had defeated the fleetest of runners in the world in the Olympic games at Ixmdon Tuesday, it was learned that within a few weeks Us application for a position on the New York police force was rejected be cause of physical disability.

Several Hundred Americans Nearthi Royal Box Gave an Exhibition ot .Cheering Which Suggested an Amer Ican College Crowd Continued Ab sence of Sunshine Is ' Depressing. . . "i London, July 21. The second weel of the Olympic contests began wltb the first day devoted principally tc field sports such as Americans are ac customed to witness. The track ath letes were the stars and the prograa contained many fast and exciting events. The American and Britlst runners and jumpers gathered in the lion's share of the laurels as usual but the Americans exceeded even the expectations of their supporters. Several hundred Americans, mostl tourists, with many Indies, who were massed together in the seats next tc the royal box, gave an exhibition ol cheering which suggested an Amerl can college crowd and lmmensel) amused the foreigners. The attend ance at the games was fair, but the weather in the afternoon was gloom) and threatened rain. The competl tors from the United States are de ploriug the continual absence of sun shine, under which they can do theli best work. Close and Stirring Finishes. The spectacular features were the seventeen trial heats of the 100 me ters sprint and the eight trial heats of the 800 meters. These furnished several close and stirring finishes. It the sprints America captured elghl heats and Great Britain four. J. A Rector of the University of Virginia was 'the particular star, for he beal quite handily E. G. MacLeod of Cam bridge, the holder of three 'varsitj blues, who never before was beaten, and in doing so he equalled the Olym pic record for the distance of 10 4-E seconds. The names of Sheppard, Halstead and Beard, Americans, went up on the black board as the winners of their heats In the 800 meters race. This event proved a disappointment to England, which was counting upor more than the two heats which It took. The German, Braun, much to the surprise of Englishmen, outran Holding, who was one of their main Btays. Lunghi of Italy beat H. L Coe of the University of Michigan in the excellent time of 1:57 1-5, and he and Just, the Cambridge half-mile champion, who captured the sixth heat in 1:57 4-5, will give the Amerl cans a hard tussle in the finals. C. J. Bacon, Irish-American A. C, captured his heat of the 400 meters hurdle race in 57 seconds, winning by 23 yards, while Coe distinguished him1 self by defeating Densham, the former British champion, although he had just contested a hard 800 meters against Lunghi. The British won six and the Amer icans three of the nine heats in the hurdles, but the majority of these were unexciting because they were a walkover. The American colors were raised to the flagpole three times, signifying victory In "the finals In the 100 meters swimming, the standing broad Jump and the bantam catch-as-catch-can wrestling, but these triumphs did not Inspire such thrills as the track per formances because few spectators in the vast Stadium could see them. Daniels Won 100 Meters Swim. C. M. Daniels, New York Athletic club, the American champion, as was expected, won the swimming event in the fast time of 1:05 3-5, which equals the Olympic record. He was closely followed to the tape by De Halway of Hungary, with Julln of Sweden third. L. G. Rich, Brooklyn Swimming club, who was second to DanlelB In the semi-finals, finished fourth In the finals. The standing broad Jumping con test was practically an American event, although no notable records were mado, Ray Ewry, the American champion, being considerably behind his own record made at St. Louis. His greatest distance was 100 feet 11 Inches. Tsiolitliis, the Greek Jumper, won second in this event, with 10 feet 74 Inches, one quarter of an inch better than Martin J. Sheridan, Irish American A. C. J. A. Blller, Brook lyn Central Y. M. C. A.; Piatt Adams, New York A. C, and F. L. Holmes of Chicago and the English champion, Bleader, were only a fraction of an Inch behind Sheridan. George II. Mehnert, National Turn verelgn (American) took the final in the bantam wrestling, while George W. Galdzik, Chicago A. A., won his heat in the high diving competition. France won the medal for fencing; the many bouts were almost monop olized by Continentals. The results of the day added three wins to America's score and one to France, the other nations not improv ing their positions. In the field events America added six points, while Greece, the only other nation to In crease its score in these contests, pick ed up three. America Is now only eight points behind the United King dom, the score reading: United King dom 54, America 45. Old Man Killed by a Trolley Car. Amsterdam, N. Y., July 21.

TO REGULATE AIRSHIPS. Florida Mayor Has Ordinance Fixing Balloon Limits. KiBsimmee, Fla July 21.

Ninety days In Jail or a fine of $500 Is the penalty for infractions. LINDEN MOTHS. Many Acres In the Catskills Defoliat ed by the Pest Last Summer" and This. Albany, July 21. State Entomolo gist E. P. Felt said that the numerous small white moths so abundant about the electric lights in Albany, Troy, New York and Brooklyn, and pre sumably other cities in the state, are known as "Snow white Linden moths," insects which in earlier years were most destructive pests to shade trees. "The caterpillars producing these moths," said Dr. Felt, "are dark brown measuring-worms about two inches long when full grown. They display a marked preference for lind ens, though they feed readily upon a variety of trees, such as elms and maples, and In forests they thrive upon beech. "Many acres in theCatskllls were de foliated by this pest last summer, and the same work is being continued the present season. Residents of cities have little to fear because the English sparrows feed readily upon the moths and will doubtless prevent the insect from becoming abundant enough o cause serious damage."

Succumbed to Heart Disease at Bad Macheim, Germany. Bad Nacheim, Germany, July 21. Vice Admiral Rojestvensky, who com manded the Ill-fated Russian fleet which was annihilated by the Japan ese Jn the Sea of Japan in May 190$, died here last night from heart trou ble. ble. It Is beliofed that the heart af fection resulted from Injuries received by Admiral Rojestvensky in the battle of the Sea of Japan. Slnovl Petrovitch Rojestvensky was about 60 years old and for many years bore th3 reputation of being one of the most cool headed and scientific na val officers In the Russian service. He distinguished himself in the Russo Turkish war In 1877 and rose rapidly In the naval service. During the late war between Russia and Japan, the latter country having scored great advantage on land, Ad miral Rojestvensky was ordered early In August, 1904. to have his squadron in readiness to proceed from the Bal tic around to Vladivostok. This proved to be one of the most remark able voyages ever made and resulted in the annihilation of the Russian Bal tic fleet in the famous battle of the Sea of Japan. A naval court of Inquiry later pre sented an Indictment against Admiral Rojestvensky for surrendering to the enemy, but the admiral was acquitted on the ground that he was not in his full senses (he was found unconscious from his severe injuries by the Japan ese) and therefore was not account able for what happened at the time of the surrender.
