The weather, was fine and large crowds were ashore and afloat to bid farewell to the Americans. Ex cursion craft loaded to the rails dotted the harbor. As anchors were hotsted and the flag ship pointed her nose toward the mouth of the harbor pandemonium reigned. The , shore batteries belched forth their parting salutes, which were answered by the American ships and the whistles and si rens on the excursion fleet resounded across the harbor and were re-echoed by the distant hills. The American ships were kept busy dipping their flags in answer to the salutations of the New Zea landers. The fleet steamed with precision of alignment out of the harbor and many of the excursion craft followed It far out to sea. Cordial Farewell Messages. Cordial farewell messages were ex changed between Rear Admiral Sperry, commatider of the American battleship fleet, and the New Zealand authorities. Sir Joseph Ward, the Premier, voicing the sentiments of the people of the dominion, said: "Your all too-short visit to New Zealand unquestionably has drawn the people of the United States and this dominion closer together." The message concludes with the fol lowing words in the Maori language: "Kla ora aroha," which means, "Good luck and love." Admiral Sperry in reply said the re ception accorded the battleship fleet at Auckland had been hearty and cor dial beyond bis expectations and that It would unite in closer bonds the two white races whose Interest in the Pa cific were identical. Premier Leads Cheering. The eight when the ships left their anchorage was magnificent, the flagship Connecticut turning and steaming between the lines of battleships which turned In order and followed her to sea. Sir Joseph Ward and a large number of officials were aboard a Government steamer and, as every battleship passed. Fir Joseph led in the rousing cheers for the Americans. The battleship Kentucky, which was the last n line, responded lustily with cheers for New Zealand and the bands on both vessels played the British and American national anthems and "Auld Lang Syne," Crowd Defends Sailors. The American sailors have won the unstinted praise of the people of Auckland for their behavior while here. Thousands of men have been ashore day after day and there was no dis turbance of the peace. There was, how ever, an Incident last night which showed the sympathies of the Auckland people with the sailor men ashore. The patrol of the fleet were engaged In rounding up stragglers and getting them back on board and a crowd was watching the op erations. At one stage of the proceedings the people came to the conclusion that the patrol were handling some drunken sailors too roughly. They, threatened the patrol, who were obliged to draw their revolvers. At this moment the local po lice arrived, drove the crowd back and es corted ' the patrol and their prisoners to the wharf. The cutter race between vessels of the fleet for the Battenburg cup was rowed In the harbor yesterday. The Louisiana crew led the start and finished five lengths ahead of the nearest competitors. Admiral Sperry last evening entertained a distinguished party of New Zealanders on board the battleship Connecticut. Among those present were Lord Plunkltt, Governor of New Zealand, and Sir Joseph Ward, the Premier. OVATION GIVEN ALFONSO After Visiting Bordeaux Doctor, He Takes Anto Ride. BORDEAUX. Aug. 14.

McFle today approved the final report of the receiver, Henry ..,... . y mm 1 J'H Late Ira D. Sankey, Who Died Yesterday. W. Leman. discharged the receiver and cancelled his bond. The Mexican Southeastern Railroad Company was organized In 1896 In New Mexico with a capital of J10,000,000 to build a road In Mexico from San Geronlmo to Guatemala as a part of the proposed Inter-Continental Railroad system. When the Spanish-American War came on the company could not sell its bonds and Its concession from the Mexican government became forfeited, but a large amount of construction had Involved the company In over $1,000,000 of net liabilities. Samuel W. Allerton, the well-known capitalist, of Chicago, was treasurer of the company and a large stockholder.' Various test suits were brought against him and practically all the litigation was the result of an organized effort to make him pay all the company's liabilities. The case has been bitterly fought on both sides. In his exhaustive final report the re ceiver regretfully Informs the court, that, if he had been successful In the contests with Allerton he would have enough as sets In 'his possession to pay all the cred itors in full. W. D. Washburn, of Chi cago, Mr. Allerton's lawyer, who has conducted the defense, declares the whole matter ended. Break Tunnel-Boring Records. BUTTE, Mont.. Aug. 14.
