The oft racing day was a busy cue after nil for tho allormon oa the two cup racers. Mr. Iselln and Sir Thomas Upton, how aver, employed their hours In different ways. The Columbia went out for a shTt trial gpin outside Sandy Hook shortly nitor noon yesterday, principally to try a new club 'topsail, which her man aging owner. C. Oliver Iselln. wished to have stretched and ready for to day s raosj, u Is one of Hathaway's latest ana best productions, and when laced to- the topmast and gaff It set like a (oiior made gown on a protty woman. C. Oliver Iselln. who. with Mrs. Ise- lin ai1(i their guests, Woodbury Kane, Herliert Leeds and Newbury Thorne, Is QHartered on the St. Michael's, said to a press representative: "I am satisfied with Columbia's work during the flrBt attempt at racing, but not with the weather conditions. None f us could tell where tho wind was cojnlng from, not even the sailing mas Ver. In all my yaohtlng I don't re- nomber whon I re seen a flukler day, With all that, however, we had over hauled tho Shamrock for the third I time when the race was called off. She could not have crossed our bow if Bho had gone about at that time. Our crew worked well from start to finish.' It has been understood In some quar ters that Captain Rhodes, of the De fender, would be on board the Colum bla In her races to look after the trim ming of the sails, and In an adviser's capacity. On board the St. Mlchaols a member of the crew said last night: Captain Rhodes has not been with us yet, but wo all wish he was along. He may come yet, and if he does ho will be welcome." Skipper Charlie Barr Is not wor ried a bit about the rosult of the races. He sticks to his original as sertlon that the Columbia Is the fast- ost slnule fltlclc vacht afloat, nnrl thnt In windward or any other work she Is more than a match for the Shamrock. I Sir Thomas LIpton is not worrying over today's race one bit. On the con- trary, when seen last nlgnt on the T-s i 1 . a J A. at . 1. t tL.

Sir Thomas spoke about his sail on the grand old schooner yacht America, 'the boat that caused all the trouble," to quote Sir Thomas. He said he had a splondld sail around the bay for about two hours, and that from the speed the old boat made in the stiff southwesterly breeze he did not won der that she had "lifted" the cup on the other side nearly 50 years ago. sir l nomas am not. care to mane any statement about today's race, except that the Shamrock would carry ex- actly the same sans as sue dlU in the tlrst contest, ana mat ner crew would do their best to cross the finish line first. The lingllsh challenger is in the best of condition lor the coming race, Not a piece of wire In her rigging nor an inch of canvas was found to bo damaged in the least degree when her crew looked her over this morning. The members of the crow are quite as confident as the Shamrocks owner that she will prove a winner. Sir Thomas received hundreds of cablegrams yesterday from all parts of the world congratulating him on tho splendid showing his boat made In light air against the defender. "Some I of the cables, said Sir Thomas, "are from people I do not know personally, but that only goes to show what a great Interest is being taken in these races. One of them read thus: 'Tom- my, don't make room for your uncle.' " In speaking about the manner In which the Course was kept clear Sir I Thomas said: "I can't get over the great organization that has been here I to keep the course clear. Tuesday's course was the clearest we ever had, or I ever saw, in England. I may as well say now that the Shamrock Is the fastest boat ever built in Britain, and the workmanship was the best that money could buy. I can't tell what her cost was, but it Is probably more than you have an Idea of. Sho cost as much as six Valkyries. The estimates given are. away below the mark." Among Sir Thomas' guests today on the Erin will be Rear Admiral Philip, U. S. N., Mr. and Mrs, Thomas A. Edi son. W. Bourke Cockran, Richard Croker, Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford and Lady Beresford, Sir Ar- nold Morloy, Sir Henry Burdette, Charles F. Russell and the lord chief baron of Ireland, Baron Pollas.

Oct. C The most lntrp-' Ing nnouncement In connection with the Transvaal crisis Is that the chan cellor of the exchequer, Right Hon Sir Michael Hicks-Bench, has already sanctioned the provisional expenditure of 3,000,000, and that the government will not exceed that limit without au thority from parliament, which will be asked to vote a sum not exceeding 8,000,000. A meeting of tho war board yester day illscuseed and drew up arrange ments to ensure the safety of the i onto from Durban to Lalngs Nek so that large bodies of troope may. on die embarkation, be rapidly forwarded up Ihe country to the front without con fusion or crowding nt tho base. It Is stated that the war ofilce has decided that the army corps for service In South Africa shall be much larger than originally estimated, and that it now consists of over 40.000 men. The preparations for the dispatch of this force, including the chartering of big ocean liners, is steadily and satisfac torily nroceedlne. The Press association learns that the dispatch drawn tin by the cabinet on Friday was still uneent up to iasi evening. On the other hand, a telegram from Brussels elves from a "well informed source" the news that Dr. Leyde, the representative In Europe of the South African republic, has received con firmation of the leport that President Knieer had addressed an ultimatum to Great Britain demanding the with drawal of the British forces from the frontier within 48 hours and that It was delivered on Monday. This re port, however, still lacks official con firmatlon. The confidence of tho military au thorities at the Cape Is shown by a dispatch received last night from Cape Town which stated that at a con ference between tho military authori ties there and General Sir George Stewart White, V. C, who will com mand the British forces In Natal, and Lieutenant General Sir Frederick Walker, held to consider the situation General White expressed himself as confident that the British would be able to present a force sufficiently to repel nny attnek. General White, who intended to go to Durban on board a warship. In order to save time, abandoned the Idea and wont by train last night. A line steamer left Lourenio Mar quoso, Delagoa bay, yesterday with 1,200 Rand refugees. Large numbers were left behind, and nil trains are crowded with those taking part in the exodus from the Transvaal. A dispatch from Volksrust says the Boer camp on the Natal border now comprises 8,000 men and is growing daily. The camp breathes a religious fervor. The commissariat arrange ments. the dispatch says, are defect Ive. One of the largest corps lay in the veldt without shelter during heavy thunder storm. Commandant General Joubert Is momentarily expected to assume com mand of the Boer forces. The Dally Chronicle's correspondent at Cape Town, telegraphing under date of Tuesday, says: For the first time in several months J. H. Hofmeyr, the Afrikander leader in Cape Colony, and Sir Alfred Milner, British high com mlssloner for South Africa and gov ernor of Cape Colony, met today 1 conference. An unconfirmed report Is In circulation that Mr. Hofmeyr has been entrusted with an Imperial mis sion to Pretoria. A special dispatch from Pretoria says the Transvaal government nas seized gold to the value of fiSOO.OOO, which Is now lodged In the state mint, The government, the dispatch adds will indemnify the banks to which the gold Is consigned. The Dally Mall's correspondent at Lorenzo Marques reports that H. M. S, Philomel has gone to Durban for the purpose of landing 100 men and a gun. Commentlae editorially on the fore' going dispatch The Dally Mall says it considers that the action reported in' dlcates grave danger. The admiralty. says The Dally Mall, would not coun tenance such a measure except In clr cumstances of unusual emergency, and It thinks It probable that other Brit Ish warships are converging silently upon the theater of action. A special dispatch irom Newcastle Natal, says: The Boers have left the laager at Volksrust and aro moving toward the frontier. The situation Is most critical. The magistrates and j municipal officers have assembled In the town hall to concert measures for the defense of the town against an ex pected attack. All the women and children have been ordered to leave for the Interior of Natal. A telegram from Johannesburg says that State Secretary Reltz, of the Transvaal, informed a correspondent of The Standard and Diggers' News that the proclamation of martial law Is being delayed. In Cape Town the opinion prevails that the delay of the Boers in assum ing the offensive points to a willing ness on the part of the Transvaal gov ernment to allow political counsel to override military ardor and that there Is, therefore, still hope that the Af rikanders' efforts for peace will prevail. It Is understood that Sir Alfred Mil ner has not yet abandoned hope that the wonderful Influences now at work In Pretoria and Bloemfontelh may lead to the arrest of the mobilization of troops on both sides and open the door to a pacific solution. Other telegrams represent that a Boer attack upon Natal Is expected at any moment, hut assert that Com mandant General Joubert has threat ened to shoot any man who moves without orders. The London morning papers are In clined to regard the seizure of gold by the Transvaal government as as act of war. No absolute confirmation Is obtain able of the report that a Boer ultima tum has been presented, but the news comes from what Is a usually good uoer source. Tho following dispatch from a cor respondent who has been at Bloem fonteln and Pretoria is telegraphed to The Chronicle: General Joubert still believes In a South African confeder acy under English protectorate, and at tributes the present crisis to Cecil Rhodes and Mr. Chamberlain. He said to tho correspondent: "I leave It now to God. It may be his will that the Transvaal shall perlgh. I can only do my part." Tho pneral was enthusiastically weicom"i at th rtnir ramp.

The imlly Telegraph s correspondent at Newcastle, Natal, sends to his pa per a similar message to that sent by the corresjwndent of The Dally Chron- leie. He say he Is sure half or the llcters will offer no serious resistance to the British troops. "The Free State," he aays, "has made no preparations, and It Is doubtful If It can put a thou sand men In the field at present. Thousands of the outlanders are un able to leave the Transvaal, and their terror is so great than many of them have Joined the Boer levies as the best means of escape. Johannesburg can offer no serious defense If attacked, nd Pretoria, despite Its five forts, Is hopelessly weak." Tim itrlken at Cramps'. Philadelphia, Oct. 6. There were no development yesterday In the strike of the various trades at Cramps' ship yard. An old trick to extort money from the strikers was attempted yes terday, but It failed. A n an who said he had brought 60 men from New York to take the workmen s places went to the strikers' headquarters and claimed that lie had persuaded the men not to go to work. He said he had them In a down town saloon, and that he wanted money to buy them food. The strike leaders Investigated the matter and found the man to be an Impostor. Sev eral hundred bollermakers, riveters and caulkers left yesterday for New York and Newport News, where they will work In shipyards. These yards are working nine hours a day. which is what Cramps' men struck for. swnnpiNa tub blood.
