TRB GREAT CHINESE PAMINN, Landon Xpectator, June 15, Bir Rutherford Alcock writes to Monday's ZTimes that thourh rain Lios now fallen in soma of the fuminc-struck districts of Chiva, nnd that by the month of October ft may produca good results, till then vonc of the poor crea- tures dopendent on the rellof fund,~which is all but extiausted,—will have s chance of ln{ meaus of support. A hundred thuneand famnl- lies are thus dependent, aud the Rellet Coni- mittec in China urgeatly tclczrnrh for £5,000 at ouce, of which tha eollectors here can now only forward anbout £800. Let us offer 8ir Rutherford Alcock a practical suggestion, We have received from Chiva a grotesque, but pa- thetic little picture baok, painting the Lorrors undergone In the famine district, the stripping of the trees of bark, ss well leaves, thia eating of the thatch oft the hou , the feeding on the dead. the selling of boys and girls Into alavery, each rough print sccompanid by an ex- Ehm“um of ite drift in Chinesc, which, wenecd ardly sy, would have been quite lost upon tho present writer had uot the friend who sent it kiudly ziven a short trauslation of the ineans fog of cach, A great multiplication of this 1ittlo book, with the Chinese oxolanations and English futcrpretations, and the appeal of the Comuitiee for help on the cover, would, we aro porsuaded, touch more minds sud Learts than ooy mere circular. It bringshome what famine means at onco vividly aud with that pathos which fs all the deeper for its qualnt and grotesque character, —————— INDIANA CROP PROSPECTS, Ayecial Dispaich to The Tridune, TwptaNaroL1s, Ind., Juno 23.—The News this afternoon, speakiug of the crops, says: “ It s a sublime view to pass from one cnd of the Htate to tha other and seo the hosta of reapers march- ing to thelr peaceful victories. dianapolfs about all the wheat will be in shock by Baturday night, while at the north end of the Btate cutting will only be begun at the last of the week, But cverywhere, without exception, the report ia the same—an Immenso crop, qualls 1y good, and the fincst possiblo weather for the harvest.

N2w Loxpox, Connm., Juns 28.—As I pre- dicted a mouth ago in Tum ‘Tninuxs, the college boat-race to-day was a complete walk- aver for Harvard, The contest was & straight vietory fromn the word **Go, the crimson showing to tho forc and never once losing its place from there to tho finish, The time of tho winning crew, as announced by the referce, was 20;44 85, with Yalo followinz In 21:20. ‘The race was witnessed by fully 40,000 people, wlo began toarrive yesterday, and kept on com- fue at all hours of the day and nighit up to the time of the start, Nuw Londun is undoubtedly one of tho worst cities In Ameriea for a great regatta, so far as the town itsclf is coucerned, | Lut the coursc, on tho other hand, (s beyond question THB VERY DEST IX THB COUNTRY. From the start, four miles up the Thames, clear to the finish, dircctly opposite the city, the line i alinost as straight as an arrow. The stream 1s broad cuough to sllow any number of water craft to accompany the boats outside the flags, thus avolding any Interference with the crews. Close up on the bank runs s rallway, upon which platform cars loaded with specta- tors afforded a clear view of tho entlre river. The betting on the race began in the Crocker House lost night {o rather lively shape, with the odds about two to one In favor of tho crimsons. Tho college men were the principal buyoers, but fow professlonal gamblers belng prescat. Every hotel I the entire town was Jammed to suffo- catlon, and the stakes wero right Jively during the evoning, The additlonal crowd which ar- rived this morning could find no place to buy, borrow, heg, or steal food, and NO PERSONS TO TAKE THEIR DETS. The disciples of the btue had completely wilted during the night, and wouldn't bite at any odde, The race was announced to begin promptly at 11 o'clock, and the boat cuntalniog newspaper representatives steamod away from hier wharf an hour fn advance of that time. 'The river about the finfshing point was crowded full of yachts, which bad come in from the Sound for the occasfon, Their masts and spurs wera ally decked iu brightly colored buntlng, and the scene was thus rendered doubly vivid. At first there were somo doults os’ to whether ~the ~raco would bo ruwed, owine to tho stiff Lreexe which was blowinz straight down the cvery but, after some discusalon, the referce declded to tako ad- vantage of the tide, which was just past tho ebb, aud the crews were called out. Yals was the tirat to respond, and showed the noso of its hoat around lhf‘po(nt above the start at just 11:40 0, . The men rowed across to the start- fne bont, and sat there Iu the cold breeza waite ing fur thelr opponents, who took their time about starting. AT NOON the boats wera ready for the word, which was quickly glven, almuat before mybody was ready forit. Yale's spoous touched the water first, but the stroke did not send the shell six Inches ahead of tho Iinrvarda. It was tho old trouble of not getting hold of the water, Tho New Haven men rowed out of time, slid too soon nt each stroke, and by their jerky action on the ro- cover retarded tho progress of their boat. Be- fore the crews hnd pulied twenty yarls the stern of the Harvard shell was opposite the bow of Yole, The crimson stroke, which was smooth, strong, and swecoing, was o trifle faster than the blue at tho sand-off, aod ran_ up in tha first few fect to thirty-six, while the Yate spouns dipped thirty-four times to the minate, but JARVARD QUICKLY SETTLED DOWN to thirty-three, and rapldly incrensed its load to threo Teugths, In these positions tho boats pussed the first mile flag. Ialf umite further down Yale mude = briof, spattering spurt, and stieceeded fn elosing up about halfa length of the advantago gained by the other boat, But there waa hot enough llfe and strength o the mon to miake the cffort u Insting one, and they begau a weary stern<chuse. Harvard went on composedly ‘with its ?»leudld stroke, aud gained {uch by inch from that point all the way to the fin! Just off the Navy-Yard & big steam-tug from New York collided with tho press boat, und thus impeded . the view for a minute or so. When tho two vessels clearcd each othier tho shells wera for in advance and pulling for the tiniah, llarvard, n huodred yards abovo the atake-Loat, by way of AUOWING TIIAT TIE MEN WERILE NUT EXIAUSTED, Lurst fnto o hvely spurt of llnrtv-clfinr. strokes to the minute. Yale, however, still huny to fis slow, spattering calt, und was fully fificen lengths behind when the flsg fell. As soon as the ruce was over, about twenty small cannon on board the varlous yachts boomed out tri- umphantly, snd the colors werc dioved as the Harvards “rowed casily by cach vessel, The grand stand was deuscly packed, and from the crowd arose & deafeningchorus of *'1lgh! 'Raht Hah!" to which the pr-{:rlul and wedltative Bancrolt bowed a gracoful acknowledgment, A momunt later the kHarvards pullea up the siver to their house, four miles above. ‘Ihe Yalo wen were . TOO MUCIL BXHAUSTED to make the roturn trip in thelr shell, and, ac- cordingly, towed her up bohind thelr lau, The tine of the race is the fastest on record, Jeast dn Awerica. Tho crews had the advantage of a still tide and stronge breeze, Lusides the buoyancy of salt water, Still, fn spite of all ad- vantages, thero {s littte doubt that the Harvard crew {s the best one that ever stepued futoa hoat. If the men had been preseed, they coutd Lave reducesd the tino a few scconds more, TUB CREWS were as follows: Ilartard—Crocker, age 10; Behwarts, €0; Leg- At 5] dncone, 1: tow, 181 Brighans, i Sml_ll}. 183 Dancroft, 23, Yale—Cartle, ovu' 18: Hyde, 20; Keator, 81; Livingston, 35‘“ 18; Hogera, 20; Trumbull, 25; Thompson, Tho Harvards' average welght was ulne pounds above Yalo.

It was & day’s raclog that will ever remain fresh 1u the memories of local residents and bright 1u the sunals of the natlonal trottlug turf, Thbe day was guite werm, with a gentle breeze blow- ing, sud really scemed ordained for the ocvs slon. 1t was s befitting termination to a grand week's sport. It was eujoyed by a lurge and enthusiastic audient fucludiog & very large representailon of the Rlr sex. RARUS' GREAT PEAT overshadowed all ¢lee. It was an exbibition heat, but was nevertheless s most extraordioary verformauce. Thoss who were 1nost skeptical of hisabllity to beat aoy trotter inthe world aro LOW awong bls beusticss supporters. It iy conceded that such a heat as this early in the season justifles Al that has been sald In Rarus' behnlf, and ecatablishes almoust n positive certalnty that be will heat all urevions records before the close of the sea- son, Themlic was trotted without a skip or break, the first qdarter belug accomplished In B41(, the half in 1:07%, and the full mile in 2:14)(. The announcoment of the time drew forth great applause, followed by vorifernus cheers for Splan, who was called to the stand and Introduced to the crowd. Tim 3:43 nacm was won handsomnely by Ethel in unbroken heats, Guas Glidden’s Alfred and Morrifl Hig- bio’'s Col. Dawes showed to good advantage. In the second heat the latter trotted from last 1o sccond In the flrst quarter, and drove the ¥inner out In 2:20, In the third heat he trafled thel from wire to wire. Alfred did Iils work on the liomeo stratch, whera he came liko s locomotiye. Heott's Thomns was a good second fu tho firat heat, threw a ahoe on the first turn In the second, and barely saved bis distance, and, In the third, cawe in third, but was set hack for running, Ethel was under a stiff pull throughout. TIHE PREE-FOR-ALL. Cozette was awarded the trst heat of the free-for-ail on account of a bad break and run in the first quarter by Hopeful, who camng In a couplo of lengths nbesad, and could have made 1t ‘a dozen bhad his driver been so dlsPuml. The second heat was aplendldly taken by Cozette, who carried Hoves ful to & double break inthe Hrathaifand trotted him off hils feet on the homo stretch, where he ohiallenged Nher after trottiug the third quarter at & lightning gait, McCarty then requested Brhn. who was driving Adelaide, to take his place behind Ilopeful, Splan consent- ed, Crawford Dbeing sclected to pilot Adelatde. Tho owner of Cozette objected, and filed a written protest against Bplan's shiftingr, The change resulted in Hopeful's winning the next three heats, without letting any of the others closer than a good haliing-distance frony him, except on the hume-streteh, where he was cased up. Adelafde dieappointed her fricnds, while Alazo-Manie showed enuugh 1o wurrant the bellef that he will be & hot oue in the 2:20 rr:lhl‘ni’ Little Gypsy was double-distanced in the rat beat.

W, B. Pettit, Eag., President ot tho Indisnap- olls DBall Club, arrived In the city yesterday morning, and, by appolotment, met President Hulbert of the Chicago Club, and iarry Wright, of the Bostons, to consult about the lezality and advisability of moving tha prescut Indinn- apolis teata to 8t. lnu(l‘. Thelr coaference was a long and secret one, but thoe results arrived at are known. It appeared that Mr. Pettlt has been In ncgotlation with Mr, Solarl, who con- trols the Grand Avenue Park, on which the Brown Btockinge used to play. Before closlng any arrangonient, ho wishied to macertatn how the move was looked on by his partuers in the League. Both tho Chicago and Bostoo Clubs were williug that a trial fn 8t. Louls should be made, and Mr, Pettit accordingly left for tho City by the llr(d&c last evening to concludo his ueyotiations, it he could get terius to suit him, A roporter who had somu cuuversation with Mr, Pettit waa couvinced that ho wus wise in wishing to make o chaoge. [lis sudlences in Indianapolis baove lately been about 60U to & game, which would clearly not pav salartes, to say nothiug of other cxcenses; $200 per game far thirty games, or 86,000 reccipts for the sea- gon at home, would starve any elub. Mr, Pottit did not care to name hle salary-list, but it can bardly be less than $13,000 or §14,000 for ten men, oud it would take a clever financier to vay that bill with $6,000 recelpts. _An arrsugement had been made with Hnrry Wright by which (If all went well) the finum set tor Indianap- olls July 9, 11, snd 13 would be played in Bt louls to or«m the seasgu there. The change would not, Mr, Putiit sald, invdlve a change of management, nor any trapeler of contracts, - He wished, further, to say that tho newspaper talk ‘about the disbund- Ing of tho Indlanapolis teain was utterly with. out foundation; it would * playout the nru? n on schieduls time, whether 1n "8t. Louls or fu- dianpolls, and all agrecments would be met.
