Moat im portant news comon from tbe Transvaal to nigh"t, which if true, probably indicates that the South African Repablio is about to .yield, or, in any ca9e, that th Boers have abandoned all ideas of in vading Natal.

The com manders still remain oh the Free State, border. The dispatch also says that the feeling at Newcastle now is that the Boers do not in tend to attack that plac and that the evacuation " of tbe town was premature. , A dispatoh from Durban also states tbat tho excitement there has abated, owing to the Doors holding back from the frontier. This retirement of the Boera is what the British war authorities hftvo expected, as their defective commissariat would prevent them from long remaining massed along tho border.

The admiral is of the opinion that such a move on the part of Aguinaldo indicates that tbe insurgent commander is weaken ing rb a result of tbo formidable preparations being made by this this Government to euppiess the insurrection during the coming dry season. The returning of the soldiers to their homes is, tbe ad miral believes, the beginning of the disintegration of the insurgent army, and he urges tbat reinforce ments for both thearmy and navy be sent as expeditiously as possi ble to Manila in order to demora lize rebels before tho dry season begins.

Old Boreas again to-dajJ played battledore and shuttlecock with the great stngle-stockers, and the third attempt to sail the first race of the Columbia-Shamrock series for the America's cup ended In failure. The race was declared off fifteen minutes before the time limit expired, with the yachts still five miles from the finish. But the vast throngs who went down to the sea to witness the battle royal were In a measure compensated by seeing a magnificent light weather duel. In the ei4 the disappolnment of the patriots was sharpened perhaps by the fact that when the race was abandoned the Columbia was In the lead and Improving her position, and had It been finished to-day the American champion might have had one race to her credit. As a result of to-day's struggle and those of Tuesday and Thursday, the talent are a good &nl confounded. Some of them differ as to the merits of the two boats, but they seem unanimous upon two things thatythe Shamrock Is the ablest boat that mxtmr rncmA ttl tuctrn A-in ta lift th mitfp" and. tuhflt Ic eflll mnM liHiurf.nt !. is more ably handled than the defender. The superior seamanship of Captain Hog arth and his crew was demonstrated at several critical points In the race to-day. Though to CaptalnBarr and the nervy managing-owner of the Yankee sloop be long the credit of executing as brilliant and daring a piece of seamanship as was ever witnessed In a yacht race. Its recklessness caused a great deaPof nervousness and anxie ty: Its accomplishment therefore, made the pulses oi the Americans beat higher with pride. It was the spectacular feature of the day and fortune favored the brave. The Irish boat did undeniably better worK to windward. She carved her way up into the wind in astonishing style. But here again the Columbia seemed to be able to more than make up In footing what she, lost In pointing, and as the ability of a sailing vessel Is determined by her power to make headway against an adverse wind, she Is the better boat by that test. The Columbia had the better at the start. She bounded across the line like a racehorse, with mainsail, club topsail and staysail drawing and spinnaker down to starboard ready for the race before the wind, and ten seconds afterward her jib broke out like a cloudburst. The Irish boat went over seventeen seconds later, with the same rig. I he patriots were wua wnn aengnt. bui ineir entnusiasm was short lived, the wuy cngnsn snipper luneu to run mrougnine ianKees lee to the weath er position, uaptain uarr tried to nead on this movement Dy turning also.

Then, when both had squared off In their course and let go their spinnakers, thousands waited and watched. Slowly, very slow at first, Inch by Inch, the defender of the cup drewawav despite the Shamrock's repeated and tireless efforts to banket her. Once clear, the white beauty forged ahead rapidly. She had established a comiortame lead wnen the Breeze lightened and hauled more to tne nonnwara. The Shamrock, as ojv the two former days, profited by the seemingly light air and began to crawl up. But she did more. Captain Hogarth took in the Shamrock's spinnaker when the mark was sighted, gibed the Shamrock and trimmed down the balloon jib topsail with great rapidity, and, with everything'drawlng splendidly, be fore the American knew It, he was luffing up toward the Columbia. Captain Barr, on the Columbia, then followed suit, but the Shamrock had passed him well to wind ward. Captain Hogarth then set his spinnaker to port and Increased the lead. Cantaln Barr seemed unwilling at first to follow the lead of the Englishman and waited almost fifteen minutes, while the Shamrock overhauled and passed him before he followed suit. The Shamrock was a hundred yards ahead before he got his sails trlmmrrt to the new conditions. Soon afterward tne wind nauieu around still further, making it a broad reach to the mark. Both took In their spinnakers and eased their sheets. Then the white flyer gained steadily. The yachts were now about a mile and a half from the outer mark. uauantiy tne American came on. 11 was nstomsning now last sne glided through the water.

To the onlookers it seemed inevitable that unless the Yankee boat kept away under the stern of the ShamrocK mere would ue a collision or the Columbia would foul the float. But C. Oliver Iselln had desperate 'courage In a tight place. He played the limit. The man who set a club topsail In a driving gale In the deciding race between the Vigilant and Valkyrie II would stop at nothing. On he came, forclne the Shamrock to go wide around, while the Columbia seem. ed to scrape the float as she wore about with her helm hard down. Though the Sham rock rounded first by nine seconds, she swept around so far on the outside that as both boats came up and their sails filled away on the starboard tack the Columbia not only tne ice Had the Columbia so much as touched the float she had the weather gauge, but was In the lead. up: ithe It was a No more reckless piece of courage was ever seen In an International race, ilMrvrnte came, but It won.

The Yankee skippers had their hands on the whistle cords, and wlien the Sham rock put her helm up, unable to make it, f rom-both sides of the course came the shrieks of thousands of whistles, the enthusiastic shouts of the multitudes and the crash of. the bands. They sailed the last twenty minutes neck and neck, but with the Colum bia to windward and perhaps a length ahead. Disappointed, but overjoyed that when the race was declared off the cup defender was In the lead, the excursion fleet headed back for Sandy Hook as fast as steam and sail could carry them.

At 3 o'clook this aftornoon tbe doors will be closed and tbo public will not havo an other chance to viow the body un til Sunday. Tho romains of the lato Captain King wore taken in a bearje from the undertaking parlors to the Ex ecutive building shortly before 9 o'clook this morning acoompanied by an escort of polico commanded by Captain Parker. Upon arrival at the Exeoutive building it was placed in the middle of the room and then loving hands began the work of decoration. Shortly after 11 o'clook the doorn were thrown open to the publio Standing close to the bead were Col. Soper and Major Potter. Theso two officers with Captain Ziegler and Lieut. Wright at tbe foot, comploted thoguard of honor. Forming a larger square about the caak.it were four members of Co. F in charge of n corporal who stood just outsido tho ontrunca to the throno room. Unfortunately Captain Ziegler was taken sick shortly, after be had taken up hie position and was forced to retiro. The caskot wns beautifully de- coratod. On top was a heart de sign made of red .carnations and placod tboro at tho sp?oial request of Mrs. King. Very near this were tbo chnpeau, sword and bal dric of tho Masonic Commandery of which deceased was a member. Yards of ilima leis wero festooned about tho coffin and beneath was a solid mass of flowers in various designs. At tbo foot was tbo maeonio squaro and compass and n design in white and pink carnations bearing tho initials, "J. A. K." On the platform whoro tbo throno usod to be was one great mass of forna and p-ilms while about the room in various pi iCi-r were pots ot various kinds oi greens. Tbo decorations were very simple but extremely effec tive. Tbe band, stationed in the band stand played dirges during this morning and afternoon. Ministers Mott-Smith and Oooper were on band to do what they could. J. A. Hassinger was in charge of affairs in and about tbo throne room. Captain Paul Smith was in charge of the miliiary on guard and Lieut. Sam Johnson was sec ond in command. Two fast sailing vessels arriv ed in port this morning' from 8ao Francisco, bringing tate news of tho outside world Bnd coming down in almost the Bamo time about ten and a half days. Tho American ship George Curtis, Captain Calhoun, left San Francisco early in tho afternoon of Sunday, the 8th instant, and was followed shortly afterwards by the bark S. C. Allen. Of course, it was a race to Ho nolulu and a very close one too. The Curtis had only a small start of the Allen and ehe got in here two or threo hours ahead of the latter vessel, making tbe quickest time between porta. Ten and a balfdays is fast sailing and both vessels' logs show tall figures in regard to speed. ' General oargoes and live stock wero carried by each and the Curtis brought two passengors for Honolulu while ten arrived in tbo S O.Allen. At the old fishmarket tho Allen now lies while tho Curtis is in the stream. At any rate tbe Allen beat tbo Curtis to a berth. On tboyjth instant, in Lat. 31 88' N , Long. 12G, 17' W., dur iug tbe night, whan the George Curtis .was making a speed of 13 knots and an unusually hoavy boa was running, the cabin bay wa9 lost overboard. Gioaeko, for that, was his name, was eoon far behind in tho wako of the flying ship, no cry oould be heard, nor was he once seen after, ha was hurled from the ship. - All hands wero immediately called on deck and the order was passed to about tho ship, but this waa found to be impoRsible. Life buoys were thrown astern and the attempt was made to lower a boat but without success for the boat would have been limply smashed against tho vessel's side.
