But despite the fact that a great many Democrats feel this way about the matter, it is hardly probable that the two factions in thia county will consent to this. They are so widely separated and so suspicious of each other they would be afraid to do so. The Johnson element would be afraid that the Zimmerman people would betray them and vice versa. Neither side will take any chance of the other fellow controlling the delegation, and the matter will be fought out as predicted in these columns several days ago. The Caucuses.

Caucuses for delegates to the county convention will be held in every ward In the city Friday evening, and Saturday morning the county convention will be called to order in the Walsh block. Of course th real battle will bo fought at the caucuses since here will be selected the men who will select the delegation to the state convention. For several days the Uuten-ants of the Johnson and Zimmerman forces have been at work in every ward fixing up elates which they will endeavor to put through at the caucuses tonight. Each faction Is confident of the result. The Johnson men sy they cannot lose, and the Zimmerman crowd is just as sure that it will be able to control the delegation.

In addition to the selection of a delegation to the state convention the Democrats will select a county ticket by placing in nomination two candidates for representative, a. candidate for commissioner and one for infirmary director. The Official Weather Forecaster Extends the Hope of a Fresh Breeze Yesterday's Contest Not Conclusive Englishmen, Except Lipton, Have Little Faith. minister, yesterday visited the Russian ambassador and notified him that the Turkish government accepted all tha Russian demands and begged that the Russian squadron be withdrawn from Turkish waters. The news of the impending arrival of the Russian quadron is spreang, notwithstanding the continued suppression of all telegrams and announcements on the subject.

The general opinion of the Europeans here is that the time has arrived for a vigorous intervention and the abandonment of all semi-measures, which are regarded as the cause of the present rising. The headquarters of the revolutionists are in the Peristeri mountains, in the vicinity of Monastir. Women and children are not molested- by the Insurgents who have destroyed only fortified dewellings occupied by rick Turks. It is not denied that they kill all Bulgarians and Greeks found acting as Turkish spies, but the strictest orders have been issued not to interfere with women or children. MAY SEND GUNBOAT.

London, Aug. 21. While there is a general belief that the United States Mill not intervene in Turkey, interest is in diplomatic circles as to whether the authorities at Washington will order American warships to Turkish waters. The United States European squadron will leave Villefranche today, for the purpose of engaging in evolutionary drills, preparatory to taking part in the maneuvers in the Caribbean sea, and 't is tbt believed in American official circles here that if it is decide! to have the United States represented in Turkish waters more than a gunboat will be. sent and it is pointed out that the Machias would be available for this purpose.

CHRISTIAN VOLUNTEERS. Salonica, Aug. 21. Skirmishing is reported to be proceeding at Vodena and Ostroro. Small bands are operating in the Doiran district.

A large band has crossed the frontier and is advancing on Dramai, the commandant of which town has urgently requested reinforcements. It is reported that the government has authorized the formation of a corps Paris, Aug. 21. Official advices say the Russian squadron off Iniada Is likely to leave Turkish waters within the next Jew days as the Turkish government has given adequate assurances that it' will meet all the Russian demands. The withdrawals of the war-sltips will be due chiefly to Turkey's assurances, but also to Russia's desire to avoid a step which might appear antagonistic to Bulgaria.

IT IS DENIED. London, Aug. 21. The Turkish ambassador called at the foreign office today to make inquiries regarding the report that it was the intention of the powers to make a joint naval demonstration in Turkish waters and to enter a protest if anything of the kind was contemplated. The foreign officials made it clear to him that Great Britain has taken no action of this character, and it appears as if Italy will also refrain from carrying out her decision to dispatch warships to Turkey, as the Italian embassy says no report of their departure has yet been received.

This is taken by the embassy to indicate there have been developments making the step inadvisable or unnecessary at the present moment, perhaps due to the Turkish acceptance fthe Russian demands, which was confirmed at the Turkish embassy. The negotiations respecting Macedonia are conducted on the continent, Foreign Secretary Lansdowne and most of the ambassadors being away from London. The Turkish ambassador leaves London tomorrow for the country, where he will remain for some days. The diplomats point out that the Scheme for a-settlement of the Macedonian question outlined by the Inde-pendance Beige yesterday, could not be approved by the powers, as it is evident Turkey would never submit to- a taceful occupation of the Bosphorus the Dardanelles. A Turkish official 1 this could be done after fighting.

NOT BEING MOBILIZED. Sofia, Bulgaria, Aug. 21. The current rumors of the approaching mobiliza-r tion of the Bulgarian army are semiofficially denied. Russia's naval demonstration in Turkish waters is declared here to be an encouragement of the revolutionists in Macedonia.

There is increasing alarm in regard to the situation. TURKEY CRAWFISHES. Constantinople, "Wednesday, Aug. 19. Tewfik Pasha, the Turkish foreign It seems to be the consensus of opinion among conservative Democrats of this city that the delegates from Summit county to the state Democratic convention should go uninstructed.

In the opinion of one prominent Democrat who had been a "wheel horse" in the party for a number of years, this is the only correct thing for a county with as many delegates as Summit has to do. "It's rank foolishness," said he, "to send delegates to the convention with instructions to vote for either Johnson or Zimmerman. Summit has the fifth largest number of delegates in the state, and the Democrats of this county should be in the same boat with the man from Missouri. We may be in a position to nominate either man, and they should come to us Instead of us going to them. We have always been foolish enough to let the other fellow do the dictating, but It is time for us to stop and do a little of the dictating ourselves.

We can make the other fellow come to us if we are wise, and we should do this. The Proper Course. "I have not taken any part in the proceedings so far, but I surely would fight for an uninstructed delegation if I were in the fight. It is rank foolishness for the Democrats of a county the size of Summit to make such a fuss about Johnson or Zimmerman. The thing to do is to select the right kind of delegates and send them to the convention uninstructed and when the proper time conies show their strength.

I hope that this course will be followed." UNLUCKY NUMBER.

General Miles was called to the stand for a brief address. General Miles said in part: Gen. Miles' Speech. "This is one of the most enjoyable events of my life. There is no company more dear to me than that of the brave men who saved this nation.

It is an inspiration to the people of this country to see their heroes moving from every quarter of this country to this grand reunion and it has been an inspiration, a revelation and a consolation to you to realize that this is our country, saved by your valor, fortitude and sacrifices. Never was a war so desperately fought, never was there a war with such sacrifice and never a war ended so gloriously. When peace came, when the two contending armies, had fought it out for the principles that they believed to be right, the hands of brave men were clasped and they were brought home again and henceforth and forever will be one nation from ocean to ocean and from th? lakes to the gulf." General Miles left last night to meet an engagement in New Hampshire, August 26. passIkgTveteran THEATRICAL MAN. John Ellsler Dies In Nefr York at the Advanced Age of 82 Years.

An Attack Upon the Coast of Maine by a Fleet From the The Tropics. Portland, Aug. 21. The theoretical hostile fleet sailed from the tropics today to attack Portland and secret service agents notified the United States government of the fact. In this way began the mimic war in which detachments of the United States army and the combined fleet of the North Atlantic squadron are to take part during the next ten days.

The fleet which is supposed to be sailing towards Portland really is at anchor off Rockland, where it will remain for the two days which would be consumed if it was actually approaching from the tropics. Then the vessels will appear in thia harbor and commence operations. In the meantime prompted by the imaginary receipt this forenoon of news of the advance of the enemy's ships, the army of defense will assemble and prepare itself for the protection of the harbor and the city. The local batteries being the first naturally to hear the news of the threatening danger responded promptly and by noon all the companies had gone into camp and taken up active duties.

the course and obscured the yachts from all observers except those who were very close. When they made their first tack at 12:20, Shamrock III was to leeward and astern a few hundred yards. The show er had passed. Then for the first time the British challenger gave the admirers of the defender a bad scare. Without apparent reason she began to foot faster than the Reliance, passed to leeward of her and drew away ahead, but still to leeward.

It looked for a moment as though she was going to show her heels to the craft which was carrying the hopes of all Americans, but when she came about and the two boats met, the admirers of the Reliance discovered that while the challenger had been outfooting her, the American craft had been outpointing the' challenger and had even increased her lead. The boats were nine miles from the starting line-and the Reliance had a lead of a quarter of a mile. In a dropping wind the British boat twice repeated the performance of slipping past the Reliance to leeward, but she was losing ground in the windward thresh by reason of the Reliance sailing closer to the wind. A Drifting Match. When four miles from the turning mark, at 1:25 p.

they started on a long leg out to sea. As they came about it was apparent that the Reliance was mile ahead. The wind had dropped to lrttle better than a flat calm, and the racers were moving very slowly. In a vain effort to woo the fickle airs the yachts changed their head sails, but the race had degenerated into a drifting match. Fluky streaks of gentle air drifted across the course.

One of these flukes when the Reliance was more than two miles from the mark, sent her off at a good gait, while the Shamrock III was headed off by an unfavorable slant until she pointed two points further off the actual course than did the Reliance. The defender hauled on the wind for a close reach back to the finish line, saluted by the whistles of the big fleet. Shamrock III was coming on at a fast clip to meet the returning defender, but she had been so far astern that was eight minutes after the Reliance turned the mark before the racers met, going in opposite directions, indicating that the Reliance's actual lead was 16 minutes. Just at that moment the regatta committee's tug displayed the signal, "The race is off," and the Shamrock III came about and followed the Reliance a short distance. Shamrock III nevr turned the mark.

They were taken in tow of tugs, and the fleet, hurrying homeward, quickly dropped them. The admirers the Reliance are jubilant because the American yacht demonstrated, that in extremely light airs and unusually rough water she could show her heels to the British challenger, and those were the conditions believed to be the severest test of the Herreshoff boat. ENGLISHMEN DISILLUSIONIZED. London, Aug. 21.

The calling off of race for the America's cup has caused a decided disappointment in London. The papers' published hourly editions throughout the day. The first reports regarding the weather at Sandy Hook inclined the public to believe that the Shamrock had ideal conditions, and the news that the Reliance had out-footed her in the drifting match was a complete disillusion. Several papers had arranged to announce the progress and result of the contest by fireworks and balloons Crowds lingered In the streets, in the dirrmalest sort of London drizzle, in the hope that the would f8hen and (CantJUruad on cast New Tork, Aug. 21.

Forecaster Emory at the weather bureau today sent out the following special forecast for the vicinity of the yacht race course for tomorrow: "The weather Saturday over the in-'j ternational yacht race course will be lair to partly cloudy, with fresh southerly winds, probably shifting to southwesterly." The Reliance this morning cast loose from her moorings, set her jib and staysail and stood out into the bay for a sail. Shortly afterward Shamrock III hoisted her mainsail with the apparent intention of going out for a sail stretching. Reliance, after several short hitches and maneuvers in Sandy Hook bay, returned to her moorings'. The challenger left her anchorage, set jib and stay-pails on the starboard tack and headed out to the. point.

The Shamrock had been out less than half an hcur when she returned to her moorings. Lipton Whistles Merrily. Sir Thomas Lipton said today: "I have not lost hope in the slightest. The conditions yesterday were the worst I have ever seen off Sandy Hook. I have been here now since June and we never had anything so bad.

It was purely a matter of luck. The Shamrock got no show from the wind. The Reliance was getting all the wind she wanted to foot away from us with, while the Shamrock was lying without a breath. "Whenever we did get breeze we lost no time in making up the Reliance's gain, but the luck never lasted with us. "As a matter of fact, the Shamrock came about to come back, seeing it was hopeless to continue when she was getting no wind.

The Reliance's sails were full when our sails were lying limp." Continuing Sir Thomas said: "The Shamrock while the wind lasted did better work yesterday than the Reliance. Others may say what they like on this matter, but this is my positive belief." Not Absolutely Conclusive. Of course, the race yesterday was not absolutely conclusive owing to the light and shifting character of the airs, but in a 15-mile beat to windward, a portion of which was sailed in a driving rain, the cup defender, Reliance, showed her heels to Shamrock III in commanding style, and in weather conditions which were supposed to be the particular liking of the challenger. Fife's latest creation has been heralded as a veritable wizard in light breezes in windward work, especially with a Jumpy sea on, while the Reli ance, in her trials, had demonstrated best reaching and running in a whole sail wind. Yet Tliursday, with a breeze varying from one to 12 knots, and against a long ground swell the defender outfooted and outpointed her.

The Shamrock III did not turn the outer mark, am1, there is, therefore, no way of knowing absolutely how badly she was beaten, but it was estimated1 that she was more than a mile astern, or about 16 minutes in the existing strength of the wind, when the Reliance rounded. As a result of the trial the experts believe, blow his-h or low, that the-Reliance will win this, the 13th series for the America's cup. During the last two hours af the race the Reliance steadily increased her lead rounding the turn a mile: ahead of Shamrock. Heading back forhome close hauled she had just reached the Shamrock, still outward bound, when, it being apparent that the race could not be finished in the time allowance, the regatta committee boat at 3:45 fired the signal wiich declared the race off. H'alf an hour after the start when the boats were about four miles from the starting line a rain ai.ovs.ej; awent across HIT A STRANGER.
