ragattas " sailed to-day orr th sani
quadrangular conn of th Royal Nortbsrn
lacht Club, whr th Vigilant nu badly
worsted rttrday, largely on aooeunt of baf
fling winds and calma. Th court waa from
point off Cralgmor plar In Rothtiar Sound !
thence ws almost da toath to and araund a
stake boat off Mount Btewart; thenc toth
westward, to and around a mark oft Largs;
tliencs northward, to and around a mark boat
InWemrss liar, and across th Firth toth
starting point, twlo around. AfUr th itcond
round th yacht aalld diagonally aeioaa th
auadraoel from Itothtsay to Lars and re
turn. Thlngthotth court It about fifty
mile-.
The raanagr of th Vigilant war much
dlMatltfled ystrday with tho at of htrialla.
Mr. Gould communicated with Batlmakar Lap
thorn with a tUtt to getting a new ult for
thacntrboardr, but tbe British aallmakar
patriotism lmpUd htm to refuta th Job. A
friend of Mr. Oould tld th UntUd Praia
repretsnUUv that h had atan a latter from
Lapthorn dscllnlng an order tor th aalla, do
daring that he would not make anrthtner for
any forslgn boat to run agalnit an English
yacht.
Thrwaa a moderat wsiUrly wind blow
lac aoroaa Itotheaar Bound when the raiera
came out to th starting point. Th battle
waa for a srlz ot 00, not to mention th
glorr ot tlctorr. Th akf was oloudleaa, and
the aanahtn brilliant. Th atattlnit sun
boomed at 10:30. Th wind waa on the atar
board beam, so It waa a reaoh along th flrat
lee of the Quadranale. Th Ylcllant oroaaed
the line at 10:30:30, aomewhat to leeward ot
the Britannia, which waa timed three
aeconda later. Both ea'rrled jlbtopaalla
and elubtopealla, Th Britannia cut
throush th weather ot th centre
boarder, and forged ahead. Th Vigilant
ooncloted unthceap. Then. In purauanoe
ot Ita aummer ouatom, th wind dropped to
meretr a aott breez and am In puff. Both
boata heelo'1 a little In a puff a therbore oft
theahoro nearAacoff. The wind waa freer In
I the Channel, and th Yankee ttuck to tho
Britannia. Approaching Mount Btewart aheeia
wereeaaed and booma went far to port The
Britannia lncreaeed her lead to about 10O
Tarda. Tho yachts rounded Mount Stewart In
thla order:

Thua at the end ofth flrat leg the Vigilant
waa 1 minute and 10 aeconda aatern. In the
4l..mlle leg down the wind, from Mount
Btewart to Large, aplnnakera were aet to atar-
board, and the Yankee boat gradually drew ud
on the Britannia. Near Tomont End, about
three.quartera ot a mile from the turn, the
Britannia eeemed to do better. She gybed to
ntarboard. but the Vigilant kept her main
boom to port and her eplnnaker to atarboard.
Out ot tho lee of the great Cumbrtu the breeze
waa ateadler. Tho Larca mark boat was
rounded aafollowa:

Theae figure show that the Vigilant cleked
up 10 aeconda In the run before the breez.
Splnnakera were hauled In at Largs, and the
yachta headed north from the mark boat In
Wemraa Bay, under the aame canyaa they had
carried down the opposite shore. The wind
freshened, and the towering atlcka of the glanta
heeled to atarboard, under the preasur of
thelrwealthofeanTaa. At Knock Caatle. nearly
halfway betweon Large and the mark boat at
Wemysa Bay. the Britannia waa leading by 2
minutes and H aeconda. The Vigilant aet a
araall jlbtopaall. apparently ezpectlng the wind
to Increase, The boata turned tbe Wemrae

The Britannia gained 2 minutes ami !I7 sec
onds on this 4tmlte leg, and was a minutes
and :t7 aeconde ahead. It waa weather work
from Wamrea Bay to the home mark. The
igltant again demonatrated that she waa bat
ter at pointing than her rival, whlnh appeared
to be a trifle superior In footing. Tbe Vigilant
held on to her little lib topsail, but the llritan
ii la's waa lowered, hor aktpper doubtlesa
thinking that It headed her oil The yachta.
after rounding tbe Wemyaa Bay mark boat lay

The Vigilant, which was 3 mlnuteaand f.H
seconda astern, had lost 21 asoonds In the
taeklng from Wemyaa Bay. The wind, still
holding true from th wast, had freshened.
The Wttllant's los In the taoklng waa caused
by au extra board aha made to fetob. the home
mark. Tbe big lead nf tbe Britannia aa the
yaehta bowled down the eoaat with the wind
utiout on the starboard beam, lessened the In

aapact of a walkoyer. The Mount Htewart

The Britannia had added another aecond to
her advantage, making the totalttlme of her

twoma were dropped to atarboard juat before
th boata reached Mount Htewart. and the
Britannia nulckly aet her aplnnaker firing in
true llrltlsh atyle. The Vigilant waa slow In
breLlngout her great silk aide sail: It hung

rontraboarder felt the Influence of tbe drop
first, ahe loat several mlnutea mora. Thu

The Britannia got a fine lift from a audden

sped up to Werayes Bay for the second time,
blie waa 7 mlnutea and 3 aeconda In the lead
and as little more than half of theeoo-se had
lieeu covered, the stern chaa of the Mgllant
looked ao If it were a hopeless one: but the
.ankae yacht In a good breeze la a hummer,
and ahe decreased the lead nf the cutter by 24
aeeonda. The time at Wemyaa Bay was;

There was a difference ot Omlnutts and 30

of the llrltannla between 1-argi and Wemyaa
was 27 mlnutea and &8 aeconda. and that of the
lgllani as 27 mlnutos and 34 aecond.
Mhe wind bad shifted to tbe northwest, and
It we a reacB. close-hauled, with the wind on
the atarboard bow. Ibe Britannia bald tbe
lead, but It waa apparent to everybody that
the Vigilant waa gaining. It waa now a piping
breesr, the kind that the Yankee haa peen
elghlni for. and to prove tbe corraetnass of
the judgment that the centreboaroerls a mug
hunter in a breeze ahe made the reach to tbe
home mark In 32 mlnutea. beating the Brltan
niaiatb 4vmlle atretcn by 2 mlputeaand

Briton by just tkat much, but ahe was still 4

It waa a run over the OJ.. rails leg dttgonallr

The beat back to the Commodore'a yaobt at

her tru form. On th beat home to flnlah

Salnsd suftlelently on the English boat to re

the winning poet.
The race for the ten-raters was won by the
American-built boat Uakotah.
The Clyde yachtsmen praise Mr. Oould tor
his plusk In continuing to race alter auch an
unbroken run of poor luck. He ears he wilt
enter the Vigilant In the regatta at Bangor on
Monday and Tuesday- after all. II will also
take th yacht to Kingston. These announce
mente have made the Irlahmen Jubilant over
the prospect of seeing the American champion
in Irish water. The Britannia will also aall
at Bangor. Mr. Clark, th ownsr of th Hatan
Ita, l disinclined to race. Later In the eeason.
it la thought, he may be Induced to atart In the
regattaa In the south.
The .sfaituanl says of yeaterday'a contest on
the Clyde: 'The raen was tedious and unsat
isfactory. The Vigilant waa not favored by
fortntie. In keeping the breezes. The llrltan
nla, on the other hand, waa lucky toward the
olose."
Thtyorfmin says: "Tbe abssnoeof th
V alkyri make It Impossible to say whether
the Vigilant la sailing aa well aa ahe did In
1813. All aeree. however, that ah has not yet
done her best."
The Providence Journal In apsaklng ot the
Vigilant' defeats says:
'In Tlsw ot th successive defeat of the
Vigilant on the Clrdo It maybe of Interest to
know that Capt Haft practically predicted Just
auch reaulta. In a letter to hie eon ITarry
dated June 20 he told blm not to be disap
pointed If th Vigilant waa defeated in the flrat
four or Ave races.
"He stated that racing on the Clyde waa a
great deal Ilk racing on th North hirer, only
th conditions on oooaalona might baa deal
werae. For Instance, he aatd that on boat
might be ahead of another by a mile and then
strike a calm that would not reach the other
boat. He also atnted that tbe Vigilant' mala
aaltfltted Tory badly.
Onanopea course, however, he said that
the Vigilant would take oar ot hsrsslt all
right.'7

CittRLMTON, 8. C. July 12. Th campaign
meeting her to-night waa full of Incident. It
1 not a dimeult thing to get upa'crowdln
Charleston with the aid of a brass band and
Gov. Tlllrmn on the bills as a star. The hatred
ot th city, which he haa never hesitated to
avow whenever he baa been called upon to ad
dreas a Charleston audience, renders him a
drawing attraction. Hence, when he was In
troduced to apeak to-night, there wer some
thing like H.000 or (1.000 person peeked In
the square at th Intersection of Broad and
Meeting street. Tho crowd was composed
almost entirely of white men, although there
wa a frlng ot black faces In the outskirts of
It. It was also a good-untured crowd, and,
although It took part In the discussion, Messrs
Whitman. Yelldell. and Tlmerman, three ot
th raform candidates who treceded the
Governor, managed to get a very good hearing.
It wa about half taat 8 o'clock when tbe
Governor cot up to speak. He was creeled
with cheers aud hisses, about evenly divided
and this laated tor some time. Then the Gov
ernor set fire to oil by shouting:
"This Is th fifth time I've tried to poke
some sense Into the heads of you peuple. but
I suppose you don't want It. and I think you
had better beat your drums and stampede Ilk
a lot nf cowards, a you dbl the aecond time I
cam here."
Thla waa alluding to a stampede which oc
curred at a meeting be tried to address here
just alter the earthquake. It waa a tender
aubjsot and It made the crowd angry. The
Governor was angry whan he atarted. For fif
teen mlnutea he atruggled with the crowd.
Onlv part nf the aenteneea of hie speech could
be heard, but these were gall and wormwood
to.the crowd.
You are a est of old fossils." aald the Gov
ernor, "and you ran go to tho devil In your
own way. I don't want your votes."
In reply to a request from the Chairman of
the meeting for alienee a voice In the crowd
"Let h'lm talk Ilk a gentleman and we will
Baton to blm."
Thla auggastlon was heartily enderacd by
th crowd. Finally the Governor aald that he
saw the people didn't want to hear him and he
would thsreforo give the rest of his tlmo to
Senator Butler. At thla there was a tremen
dous yell. Befere retiring, however, the (lov
rnor, shaking his finger tn the faces of the
crowd, shouted In a loud voice:
. "Hear my parting shot. I'm going to ram
the dlspsnsarr down your throats, with the
constables and the militia and a metropolitan
police, and you'll have to stand It whether you
want to or not." . ...
Tillman waa auceedet by Gen. Butler, who
had the crowd with him. He began by ex
pressing his wonder and amazement at the
manner In which Gov. Tillman had insulted
tbe audience,
Just thsn there waa a flutter In tho crowd
and without any premonition another atain-
fiede. auch an th one the Governor had el
uded to, took place. Men and boya ruahed
wlldlrln every direction, trampling and climb
ing over each other In a ecramble. No one
aeemed to know who atarted It. although the
Consarvativea say that it waa started hy a
handful of Tlllmanltes hroughton from Berkn.

meeting because It refused to hear tbe Uo

Chicago. July 12.-Prenitergasl, the assassin
of Carter Harrison, l to die on Ihe gallows to
morrow, l'scape from capital punishment
was closed, apparsntly, to-day. The attorney
for Prendergast made their final plea In court
for a atar of execution this morning before
Judg OroMCUD In the United Mates Circuit
Court, first making application for a writ ot
habeas corpus. Attorney Gregory's main
point was that Prendergast, when being sen
tenced by Judge llrentnno, waa not aaked to
snswsr the constitutional auction If he had
anything to say why sentence ot death should
not be passed upon him. Although tho record
doea not show thit the iU tlon waa put, Judge
llrentano did ask the rlsoncr, who rssponded
With a lung and Incoherent speech.
The attorneys had no expsrtatlon that th
writ of hnleas corpus would to Issued, and th
bunion nt their arguments wss for a stay
of execution rending au appeal to the United
Htates Huprsme Court. Judge Grotscup de
nied the writ and telegraphed to Judge Wooda
at Indianapolis, asking him to come to Chica
go to-night or to-morrow to consult a to
granting tho stay of execution.
Amotion was then male to appeal to th
Bupreme Court of tho land from the decision,
and argument was made for a stay of execu
tion pending the hearing of tbe appoal. Judg
Grossoup wrote a note to Bherlff Gilbert re
questing blm to postpone the execution until
the last moment specified In the warrant.
The MberlfT replied Ilia', although he would
act with all due regard to the prisoner's rights,
liu would also act only under proper authority
on a vice ot Ills attorney,
At 4:U0 o'clock tho attorney for the Btat
and prlaoner again appeared In Judge Gross,
cup's court. He Informed them that he had
decided to overrule the motion for nn appeal
to the foiled Htatea bupreme Court, which
carried with It a refusal tn Issue an order for a
stay of execution. This was the last straw, aa
Gov. Altgeld in the morning had telegraphed
to the attorneys for the defence, refuting their
application for a reprieve. He le convinced
that every opportunity has been given to prove
the Insanity of Prendergast.
Attorney Dirrow, who oama Into the de
fence alter the llrst sentnc ot the assassin,
admitted thnt nothing more could be done.
bhsrlfT Gilbert was at once notified nt tho final
decision of the court and resumed prepara
tions for the hanging.
Prendergast waa removed In th morning
from his cell in Murderers' How. whloh he haa
occupied alnco hi Incarceration, to a email
room back of the Jaller'a ofllc. where he wilt
remain until he walks out tn hla death to-morrow
morning. Two bailiff-, known aa the
death watch, were sst to watoh him. The only
visitor whom ho received with any degree ot
grace was hla brother, who remained an hour.
When the llev. Father Hurry of the llelyName
Cathedral called. Prendergast said he could
come, in, but he wanted It understood he did
not send for him. The priest talked and
prayed with him for an hour, and left him In
better humor and spirits. Prsndergast's aged
mother was in teara whon she called toloave
some clothing for her eon, and later she entered
the chamber wlthaehudder to take the last
leave. The carpenter erected the gallows to
night at a late hour, and the teat of the rope
waa aatla nctory to the latter and Sheriff.
Prendergast received the newe that there
waa nothing more to look forward to but death
and spiritual consolation with almost Indiffer
ence, and relnpsed Into his usual silent mood,
except to reiterate that ho had not committed
murder with malice aforothought and would
dloan Innocent man.
