Neb York (Special).—In a splendid 1» to 15 knot breete, over a < windward and leeward coarse of 30 mile*, the Reliance beat Shamrock III in commandin* style by exactly 9 n»xijutt» actual time, or 7 minutes and j secoothi after dcdacting the t minute and 57 second* which the defender concedes to Sir Thomas Lipton’s third challenger on account of her larger sailing plan as at present measured. By a strange coincidence. the Erst victory in the cup series of 190J occurred on the fifty-second anniversary of the day on which the old schooner America captured it in hef~famous race around the Isle of Wight. The Reliance beat the Qntish boat 3 fctinutrs and £4 seconds in the thresh to windward and 5 minutes and 36 seconds in the run down the wind. The honors of the start were captured by the American skipper. Captain Wtinge timed his approach to the line with the Shamrock badly, and in an effort to keep off imtil the gun boomed be almost lost hi*' bowsprit as he luffed, up to cross. Barr, as usual, w-mt over in the windward berth, four seconds behind his rival. Both were close hauled cm the starboard tack. , It was a magnificent sight as they plunged seaward in theAtaknot .breeze, pounding fountains of •pray from their bows and leaning to it until the water swirled and bubbled along their lee rails. The crews were piled up along the water side to hold the great

racing machines up.

L< ndon (By Cable).—Lord Salisbury died peacefully at 905 o'clock Satur-

day night.

During the pteerding 48 hours the end was *aen to be inevitable.'the great frame of England’s ex-Premier being sustained only by the constant use of oxygen. Even this^ailed of effect a* the evening advanced and the ! sufferer remained unconscious. Soon after the shadow had crept up from ; the valley and enshrouded the dull red -alls of Hatfield house the distin- ; guished statesman, making the last effort of his life, turned slightly toward his favorite daughter. Lady Gwendoline Cecil, who was kneeling beside him, and then quietly breathed

| his last.

i Lord Edward Cecil had been warned early in the afternoon by telegraph ’ that the end was near. All the other j members of the family had gathered ! at the'badside. Dr. Douglas Powell, j who had attended Lord Salisbury, was 1 notified by telegraph in the morning ! that it was useless for him to come. 1 and he was therefore absent at the eud. [ The village of Hatfield, which yull ! retains many features of the 'feudal ! period., was filled with anxious resi- ! dents awaiting the news of Lord Salisj bury’s demise.. The great Hatfield house, hidden behind a screen of pine ■ trees, was lighted at every window and ' gave uo sign of the approaching fai tality. Groups of watchers clustered j under tbe Elizabethan arches of the : lodge gates anxiouslv questioning each i latest passer from the house. Finally the news came when a hatj less servant dashed down the graveled roadway, saying, as he passed, "He has 1 gone," and then disappeared in the church. Sodn afterward the bell from ; the tower above tolled slowly, and the villagers at the street corners nncover- ! ed in acknowledgment of the pass- ; ing of their neighbor and friend, EngI land's great statesman, j Viscount Cranborne. who now as- ■ sutnes the title of Marquis of Salisi bury, immediately notified King Edward and Queen Alexandra, the Prince and Princess of Wales and others, including Lord Edward Cedi, the soldier son oM-ord Salisbury who is now in Egypt, and who was the only child ; of the Marquis absent from the death- ' ted. Soon messages of condolence began coming in. and the little telegraph office at Hatfield was swamped with unprecedented business. The elevation of Lord Cranborne to the Hou*e of Lords creates a vacancy in the House of Commons from the Rochester district and probably will cause the selection of a new Under Secretary fop Foreign Affairs. The exPremief. though retired from political life, was an important figure in many 1 public ways. He was a warden of the Cinque Ports, high stew-ard of WestI minster and chancellor of Oxford Uni- ; vershy. His death places an Order ; of Knighthood of the Garter at the : disposal of King Edward. It is cnlerstood that Lord Salisbury recently expressed a wish.to be buried beside his wife at Hatfield, proposal will undoubtedly be made to bury him in Westminster Abbey, but this will be declined by the relatives !_ accordance with his wishes.

Mara Jtog.-tai far a Cesal Dr. Thomas Herran. the charge d'affaires at Washington for Colombia, ha* received several additional dis patches lor Bogota confirming the report that the Coldfhbian Congress had under conaideration a new propoaition lor a Panama Canal Treaty with the United State*. These ditpatche* were (orwarded by Dr. Herran to Actiqg Secretary ol State Alvey A. Adee, who refused, for the present, to make public their text. According to the dispatches the Colombian Congress probably will empower President Marroquin to negotiate a new treaty with this country along certain lines laid down by Congrea*. Exactly what these lines may be is stated in the dispatches, the last ol which is dated Bogota, August 12. committee of three has been appointed by the Senate to draft the canal resolution*, which will have to be reconcilable to the Colombian Constitution and also as near as possible to what it is believed will be agreeable to tht United States. The names of the three senators appointed on this committee are not stated in either of the three dispatches received by Dr. Herran. but he believes they were selected because of known views favorable to | the construction of the canal acrosi ! the Isthmus of Panama. Both the official* of the State De- ; pan men t and Dr. Herran feel much ' more optimistic than they did a few j days ago, when the first new* of tht 1 defeat of the treaty in the Colombian j fienate was received here.

i h * re -

Acting Secretary Adee received s. 1 communication from the president ot i the cable company running betweer 1 New York and Colombia, which exj plained that delay in getting word ! from Bogota was not due to any fault 1 of the cable company, but to the delay ! in overland transportation from tht K im where the cable lands in Colom1 to Bogota. He said it takes from | five to fifteen days to get a message j from the landing station of the cable j to Bogota, but that the Colombiar government had entered into an agreement to repair the telegraph lines between the two points immediately.

His Re part Leaks Oat

The premature publication in a San Ahtonio "paper of tbe annual report ol Brig. Gen. Frederick D. Grant, com manding the Military Department o! Texas, has been called to tbe attention of the oGcial* of the War Department and General Grant has been requested to explain whether or not he gave the. document to the press, contrary tc

orders. *

Annual reports made by commanding generals of the several military departments are made direct to tbe Secretary of War and are not supposed to be given out for publication until so ordered by him. Often these, repons contain information recommendations of a somewhat confidential nature, and often some of tbe recommendations contained in them are used by the IJqutenant-Gen'eral of the Army in his annual report to the Secretary ol War. Strict orders were issued by the War Department about a year ago that no officer of the army should make public his annual report. It «s believed at the department that Genera! Grant's report was given out through a misunderstanding which will be satisfactorily explained.
