AT THE CABINET MEETING TO-DAY, Socretary Evarts being absent, Assistant Secretary Sew- ard represented the State department. Secre- tary Sherman presented estimates of the prob- able receipts and expenditares of the govern- ment Suring the next fiscal year, and calculates that with the arrears of pensions there Would be a deficit of about $23,000,000 in the ‘Treasury. Congress appropriated the money to Pay these arrears, but made no provision for raising the funds. This matter will probably be brought to the attention of Congress at the extra session. The prospective condition of the departments, in case the legislative bill should not be oe before June ist, was alsu considered.

Rowell, 50 miles at credited with the same figures at 11h. 32m., and Ennis reached the “half century” mark at 12h. 6m. 198. It, was now afternoon, and men of business began to arrive, and club men thouzht the contest worth looking at. The band came tn and commerced operations, which eniivenet matters generally, though one old walk ard a@ good judge of such things, sald tha’ the “leader ought to be scolded for play- ing such music to walk by.” Occasionally the competitors would be in Indian file close to each other's heels, and then they would simultaneously break into a trot. Atsuch ‘ime the people in the inner circle would rush from side to side to get a better view of the men, the tramping of their feet sounding like a squ.ron Of cavaliy. sChe people seemed beside them- selves, and rfin and shouted and yelled. Althe while the men behind the competitors were watching them narrowly. Asplen, simmo.1ds and Jack Goulding behinds Roweil saw him peg away and perspire, and knew all was well. Mr. Al. Smith, Barney Aaron and Slattery stood in front of O'Leary’s house, and watched him keenly as he moved along in that graceful manner for which he is famous. Inside the cottage every t hing was pleasant and attractive. ROWELL A BIG EATER AS WELL AS FAST WALKER. The Sun of to&day, gays: No man of the four {s more looked at than Rowell. He is usually found about two paces behind O'Leary, when the latter is on the track. When the champion is off the track the Englishman isscoring up the Japs el him the lead; and with the ad- vi lus gained he falls in behind O'Leary, and the short eee, of the Englishman follows the champion like a noonday shadow. Aside from his splendid record for the first twenty- four hours, the fact that it rests with him whether the champion belt shall be taken across the water makes him an object of interest. Be- side, he makes a remarkable figure, with his close-cropped head, queer jockey cap, ard very handsome form. His shoulders | rest perfectly naturally even when he 1s exerting himself the most. His back 13 Straight. His Mmbs are perfect in shape. He caries himself well, and walks easier than any other of the competitors. Iis galt appears to be taken more easily even than Ennis’s care- Jess stroll. Yet there is a briskness about his Movements that suggests business. He per- Spires freely, and has lost considerable flesh ready. He mops his face industriously a3 he goes round, and Ua ened carries a wet Sponge in his hand. He eats industriously at Trequent intervals. Taploca pudding has been assiinilated by him in unmentionable quanti- tes. One of the wonders of the match 13 Rowell’s capacity for disposing of provisions. ‘The gas stove in his hut 1s kept running at its fullest capacity, and the fact that his stomach digests all that it receives, and calls for more, is decidedly gratifying to his backers.

The articulation of every joint seemed perfect. There was not a shade more of color in his face at the end of fifty miles than there was at the start.
