Manila, Oct 7 The archbishop of Manila notified (ieneral Oti that a plot was on foot to burn the residences of the goveruor-geueral aud the arch bishop, together with several govern ment buildings and Uiuks, but the plut failed to materialize, possibly because of display of force. The first reports regarding the affair at Paranaqtie last night appear to have been much exaggerated.

SECOND RACE FAILED. It Waa a IlrirtliiK Match From 8tart to milk. New York, Oct. 7. Again today the sea refused the Shamrock and the Co lumbia a field of conflict; again today the multitude which went over to watch the contestant for the yacbtiug championship of the world returued dUappnlntcd and uot u little disgusted. The question of supremacy of the two great yachts is still a much an open question a before they tirst met, as the contest today was in some respects more of a fluke than that of Tuesday. It was a drifting match almost from start to finish. The yachts crossed the line with a breete of five knots, and the wind never blew more tluin six knots, most of the time less than three, and part of the time uot a breath of uir was stirring. After sailing font hours and I -j minutes, the yachts having cov ere.
