The New Yacht Pronounced aBril
liant Success.
TESTS OF SPEED AND ENDURANCE,
The Cnp Defender Not Only flail Awny
from All Yiioliti In New York Harbor,
but Shows Thnt She Can bo Spoedlty
Ilnmlled.
Bristol, R. I., July 8. -Tho second trial
trip of the Defondor was made yostordny,
mill it proved satisfactory in ovory respect.
Captain Nat Herreshoff and tho mom
bors of tho syndicnto who wore on board
after their roturn declurod thomselves de
lighted both with tho speoil and with tho
behavior of tho yacht. Tho training yacht
Colonla was tho Dofonder's running mate,
and in the cruising the syndicate boat
fairly sailed around tho Colonla. Tho De
fondor also oncouutored soveral other
crack sailors who, anxious for a brush, sot
sail ator hor, but thoy wero quickly left
bohlnd. Theso doings on tho part of tho
new boat added greatly to tho satisfaction
of hor owners and orqw.
Cnptnln Nnf HorreshofT handlod the
wliool of the Dcfendo r, and on board worn
tho mombors of tho syndicate and Cap
tain Hank Huff. After considerable tlmo
consumed in gottlng tho sails In trim the
Defondor took tho wind and Started nwny
on tho starboard tack back of Hog
Island. Tho Colonla caught the broozo
a half mlnuto lator, and thoy wore off.
Tho Defender continued on tho tack as
far as Hog Island, six miles away, and
although tho wind was light and un
steady, blowing from tho southwest, the
Colonla steadily dropped behind, and
after a fow minutes was out of hailing dis
tance. The yachts came about off Gould
Island.
Near thU point u largo fleet of yachts,
which had put out from Nowport In an
ticipation of tho trial, was oncountercd.
From Gould Island tho course was laid
for Sand Point, along which tho Defondor
not only showed tho Colonla hor heols,
but In several minor brushes she was scon
far ahead.
From Sand Point to tho lightship, and
thonco to Providence Island, tho Defender
and Colonla proceeded, the Krmor lending
easily both in laying up to) hud running
before tho wind. She carrlbA her canvas
well, and could havo stood a much stronger
breeze without shortening sails. Tho only
trouble of consoquenco was causod by the
misfit of tho topsail, which was too largo
and baggod considerably. Some little time
was spont In cutting this down. Tho hun
dreds who watched tho Defender oxpressed
great surprlso to see how her sail hold the
wind, and when tho breezo died away she
was equally surprising In laying up to the
wind.
Another pleasing point which the syn
dicate loarned wus the rouiarkablo speed
with which tho Defender can bo brought
about. By actual tlmo this feat was per
formed in just fifteen seconds, or ton sec
onds quicker than the bost time tho Vigi
lant evor mado In coming about. From
yesterday's trials It was llgurcd that the
Dofondcr outsailed the Colonla by about
ten minutes In ton miles.
Subsequently the boats started out on &
second trial, and although tho wind died
away to almost a doad calm the Defondor
hold tho breezo and onslly passed ovory
thing In the harbor.
Killed by a Itocket Stick.
Philadelphia, July 8. Eduu Howes,
the 2-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert G. Howes, was struck on tho head
by tho descending stick of ii sky rocket
Saturday night, und dlod In convulsions

Its coach, was witnessing the pyrotechnic
display of the Bramble club, at Mont

the stick, which had been unpercolved by
her, struck tho babe.

The Men of Cornell Unlucky In the Pre
liminary Itraw.
Hekley-on-Thames, July 8. -Regatta
wcok opoiis witli, benutlful weathor at
Henley. Tho town Is crowdod, and the
river Is allvo with craft of all kinds.
Among tho launches Is the Astor's Mlg
nonotto, llylug nn enormous yellow iltignt
tho stern, on whloh Is tho Astor's crest,
and four Flour do Lis In tho corner. Sev
eral launches aro flying the American flag.
The Cornoll men yestorday rccolvcd nu
merous calls from other Cornell men and
other Amerlcnns and membors of tho other
Henloy crows. Coach Courtnoy has boon
Indisposed,
Manager Francis has mado many luju
dlclous criticisms on tho draw, Intimating
that it was arranged In favor of tho En
glish. Ho especially complains of Now
college, Oxford, having n byo for tho first
round and thon only having to meot the
Thames or Raton crows before tho finals,
while Cornoll must row with Lennder and
thon with London or Trinity bofore tho
finals.
Thoro Is, of courso, not tho slightest
ground for suspicion. Tho churacter of
the men in ohurgo of tho regatta, in uddl
tlon to tho fact that tho draw was had In
tho town hall, with representatives of all
tho craws present, shows that any unfair
ness was Impossible
Tho Sunday Times, rovlowlug tho work
of the different crows, says that It Is
bound to admit that tho tlmo tests have
shown the Cornell crow to be as fast as
any on tho rtor, but thoy aro badly
drawn, and, deaplte tho fact that thoy arc
unuouutodly a speedy lot, Leauder should
beat them in their heat. Tho Sunday
Times goes on to explnlu that CoruolPs
doing tho courso on Suturday three sec
onds faster than Leander was duo to the
latter having a cross breezo to contend
with.
Tho Roforeo predicts that New oollcgo
will bo tho wlnnor. "The Cornoll men,"
says The Reforee, "are a puzzlo. Their
lack of swing is all against them over a
severe courso like Henloy. Though they go
a great pace, wo oplno that the result will
show that tho Yankees have been over
rated."
Mnrdoretl by a School Janitor.
NANTICOKE, Pa., Julys. Frederick Bit
tonbender, proprietor of tho Blttenbendei
Machine works, who Is also a school direc

ought to bo at work up at the school build
ing, whoro you get paid for working."
This Incensed Eckard, and, socdring a ro
volvor, he hunted up Blttonbendcr and
asked hlra if ho was sorry for what he had
said. A negative reply was given, and
Eckerd shot Blttenboudor In tho right
cheok, killing him Instantly. Eckord Is in

An old musket was lying at his fcot. A

marks 6n his face, which would undoubt

Chicago, July 8. One ot the mrt fur
ious wind ntid rnln storms ever known In
thl vicinity for years passed over the city
about 6 o'clock last evening, coming from
tho northwest. The day had been In
tensely hot, and there v.ero many people
out on the lake in sailboats, and as thf
storm came very suddenly It Is feared that
several lives wero lost. The different life
saving crews were busv all evening trac
ing rumors of oapsized boats, people
fliiiffiuc to plnnk-i, etc 'ind imtn nm
Mihr, had br ,u cht In the orc.ip 111
Uireo cupsiz.-d boats, all in tt very o.
haiftr 1 condition. No tra" nf any others
has ujen found, and 1; Is hoped 1 lint no
more aro out.
TTp to wthtn twenty mlnuto of the do
sci nt of the storm upon the oltytheskr
bn 1 lii-pii clertr and the sun shiiuu
brightly. Suddenly heavy black clouds be
gun tc, gather In the northwest, uud u fi'w
mlnute Liter a terrific t-ahj of wind, oi:
coiiipimled by a perfect flood of lain and
furiotH thunder und lightning, wus hweoi.
ln over tho city Shade troei were broken
oiT cl'isp to the jruaad. uwuiut;;,, alu..,
etc.. torn away ntid mucl. i.u- damairo
done in the city proper.
Tho wind moderated after about . .
an hour, but tho furious rain contiu .
for fully two hours, during which tt t.
tho streots were running with water, '"hf
park had been crowded all day with ;
p.o seeiiing relief from the almost intn
ti'de heat, nnd when tho storm bcju.i
thorn was a stampede for tho various ele
vated and cablo lines. The surlaco Hues
wero all oqtllppod with onen cars, the can
vas curtains on which afforded but slight
protection against the furious pale, which
brntuht tho rain In torrents lu every di
rection. As a result the occupants of overy
train made u sorry looking sight before
thoy hud travelod a block, und most of
them, after (retting a thorough soaking,,
deserted tho cars and sought shelter jT
convenient stairways and stores along
tho street on which they were truveliUi;,
and there tuey had to remain for two.
hours.
Many basements wero flooded nil over
tho city, and in somo instances flro en
glnes had to bo called on to pump out
stores. Several housos In tho outlying dis
tricts of tho city wero struck by lightning
and seriously damaged. Two small resi
dences were completely destroyed, but no
one Injured. The pecuniary loss in both
cns.es wus small.
At tho holfthtof tho storm a signal tower
bosldo the Pan Handle tracks, at Ada
street, was blown over, and tho towerman,
August Boedlow, sustulucd fatal injuries.
Tho polico and life savors think that all
tho missing boats, both rowboats and
Bailboats, aro accounted for, although It Is
posslblo that a fow may yet be out. Tho
people In the boats which wero blown out
Into tho lake by tho hurricano report hav
ing had an awful experience. So far the
only fatality actually verified Is tho case
of Charles Klein, John Ross uud Charles
L. Shook, who wore out in a rowboat
when the storm burst, and of whom no
trace has yet buan found. Tim yawl boat
of tho yacht. Battle B was ptokod up off
Twonty-third street, but it is thought the
yacht has weathered tho gale and made
Eomo other port.
Bob Terrell and John Fitzgerald, who
wero out In a rowboat whon the storm
came up, had u narrow o-.cupe frirn Irown
Ing. Tho boat capsized and the ' Suc
cess started to tho rescue. A U. was
thrown, which was grabbed by Itr
gorald, and he was pulled on bou' 1 '.ht
tug. Aleo Lonto, engineer of tlv tiv
Boeing that Terrell was sinking, jumpeu
In and saved him.
Lator reports coming In through the po

showed that the losses in the down town
districts alono will aggregate a large sum.

distance back badly damaged by the flood
of rain.
Dispatches from many points in tho cen

In no place did tho damage reach such a
