America's cup races and sail course dispute settled
News on the America's cup challengers involving Mr. Beaver Webb and Lt. Henn ends with the race plan unchanged from last year. The Galatea is to arrive but not race Newport events. Sail measurement remains a minor dispute and a Boston teacher faces a twenty day pay fine for corporal punishment under a state regulation. Lord Randolph Churchill's speech outlines Conservative plans for a dissolution scenario, implying sacrifice of own candidates to block Gladstone and avoid home rule, viewed as politic but not glorious.
