Acting Secretary Buatcheller in- formed Mr. Huntington that the collector's action was in accordancee with previous de- cisions of the department, but that he would comply with the request of the transportation company to postpone further action until the uestion can be presented in a diplomatic way through the Chinese legation at Washington.

Now that Mr. Blaine and all his family are out of the city occasion has been taken to start again the old story of his “failing health.” As far as can be learned from those who ought to know most about the matter there is no more foundation for the report now than there was for it in its infancy ten years ago. Those who have been brought into the closest contact with Mr. Blaine since the 4th of March declare that his health has been remarkably good dur- ing thyt time and that there is no apparent de- cline in it now. HIS VIGOR OF MIND AND BODY is shown by the immense amount of work he does. Both at his office and at his private apartments he works steadily, dealing with all the most important questions with care and force, At present he is engaged on important work. Instead of having been called to a fam- ily conference over the ill-health of his father the purpose of Mr. Walker Blaine’s last visit to Boston was to take to his father some import- ant papers connected with matters now occu- pying the Secretary's attention. Secretary and Mrs. Blaine were in Boston buying furniture for their Bar Harbor cottage. Some time ago, when Secretary Blaine re- mained away from the department for a short while—when he had the lumbago and it was reported that he was paralyzed and what not— he was actually engaged with some work that kept him writing many hours a day. DEEPLY INTERESTED IN HIS WORK. His interest is most thoroughly in his de- partment, and he is at this time doing some important work. No other cabinet officer has had such ademand made upon his time by callers as has Mr. Blaine, and his going to Maine at this time is not so much because he required the change as that he had this work to do and could give it his attention better there, where he would not be so subject to in- terruption, Unless his health has suddenly failed since he left Washington there is no reason to apprehend hia retirement from the cabinet on that score, Moreover, the matters he is interested in and working upon would make his retirement at this time one of the most unlikely of events. Those associated with him can find no rea- son for the circulation of such a report. It is not at all likely that he would drop, scarcely begun, work he is so much interested in. ORIGIN OF THE REPORT, The only thing the report was built upon was the fact that Secretary and Mrs. Blaine went to New England; that they were joined by Jas. G. Blaine, jr., and that Walker Blaine went from here last week to meet them in Boston, Sec- retary Blaine has not been complaining of ill- health, but, on the contrary, has been in ex- cellent spirits, and has told his friends that he felt better than he has for a number of years, He was looking well when he left Washington, and nothing has been heard from him or his family by any one here to indicate that he is now feeling less well. When he left here Walker went with him and returned in day or two. The other day there were some private papers that had to be sent to the Secretary ina private way, and in- stead of sending a special messenger from the department with them Walker Blaine took them himself, partly because he wanted the pleasure of the trip and partly becanse, in the same connection, his father might want to confer with him, WHAT MEMBERS OF THE CABINET SAY. The published report that Secretary Blaine had tendered his resignation, to take effect September 1, owing to ill health, is ridiculed by most of the cabinet officers in the city and by others who are intimate with Mr. Blain Secretary Rusk and Attorney General Miller both say there is no foundation for the rumors and that Secretary Blaine’s health, when he left Washington about a weck ago, was better than it was when he became Secretary of State last March, Both gentlemen spoke of the report as sensational and altogether without foundation, Assistaut Secretary of State Wharton, when asked about the correctuess of the published report, laughed and said it was simply ridicu- lous. Joo ee HADJI-HASSEIN KHOULI KHAN. His Unceremonious Departure — The State Department in the Dark. When Hadji-Hassein Khouli Khan Motamed el Vesare—which, by the way, is the full name of the late minister from Persia to this coun- try—left for New York last weck with the in- tention of sailing for Europe, never, never to return to the country of unmuzzled newspa- pers, he gave no official intimation of his de- cision beyond announcing that he had been granted a leave of absence. Therefore it is that the State Department archives contain nothing to indicate that this country is diplo- matically severed from the land of the shah, for Hadji Hassein, &c., had NO LETTERS OF RECALL TO PRESENT when he made up his mind to go. He will meet his sovereign in Paris, whither the latter has gone as a counter attraction to the Eiffel | tower, and will there relate to him his woes and show him his scrap book containing the nice things the Ameri papers have said about them both. Hadji will sent to a more congenial clime, and perhaps in the shah’s own good tizne another envoy extra- ordinary and minister plenipotentiary from Persia to the land of the Christian will be sent nm, armed with credentials and also with Hadji-Hasseiny’ letters of recall, which he will present to the President together. But until then the diplomatic list will continue to bear the sinuous name of the late departed Hadji as the representative of the shah, WHEN KHOULI KHAN'S TROUBLES REGAN, It would seem that Hadji-Hassein’s troubles and disappointments began with his arrival here, which was delayed many months beyond the regulation period. He was met in New York by the chief clerk of the State depart- ment in a tug, whereas his ideas of oriental splendor had conjured up to his mind a picture of the President on a man-of-war waiting with open arms to welcome him to the shores of the land of freedom. His disappointment was great and was tenfold increased when the little steamer glided under the muzzles of the guns at Governor's Island and no salute was given to the man who represented the eternal kingdom of flowers. henceforth Mr. H. H. K. K. M. el Vesure was a bitterly disappointed person, and the onslaughts of the press formed the last straw. Interior Department Changes.

Though the Weather ts Bad the Boats Make a Good Start. Marsreneap, Mass., July 15.—There has been a marked change in the weather condi- tion within the past twelve hours, The beauti- ful weather of yesterday has been followed by a cold northeast rainstorm; the wind, which was light early this morning, is increasing. If it continues to gain strength it will havea tendency to kick up a nasty sea outside. The race will. however, be sailed if the wind holds good. It isso thick outside that the starting buoy can hardly be distinguished. There are twenty-eight entries—four first-class schooners, three second-class, In the third class the Clara will have no competition. The same forty- footers that sailed Saturday will make up the forty-footer class, while the special class will have ten starters. In the seventh class the Hilda and Romona will contest the honors. The start will be made at 11:15, the course be- ing from Half-Way rock to Harding Beil buoy, thence to Minots, and return, giving the yachts a dead beat home. THE RACE WILL BE SAILED. Mansieweap Neck, Mass., July 15, 10:45 a.m, Driving northeast rain storm prevails here, but the race of the Eastern yacht club will be sailed, THE FORTUNE CROSSES THE LINE FIRST. MARBLEHEAD NEoK, Mass., July 15, 11:20 a.m, The first-class schooners have just sterted. They will go to the southeast mark at Minots first. Fortune, with flying jib and mainstay sail, crossed first, at 11:15, and broke out her jib topsail.

OVERHAULING THE MAYFLOWER. 11:28 a.m.—The Sea Fox appears to be over- hauling the Mayflower and the Mertin is slowly crawling up on the others. The Oenone seems to have the best of it in her race with the Quickstep. THE OTHER CLASS BOATS START. 11:40 p.m.—The fourth, fifth, sixth and sev- enth-class sloops crossed the line at 11:30, led by the Clara. Most of the forties have their balloon jibs set. The Fanita led in the fifth ciass. It is impossible to distinguish the lead- ing forty. The special class made a good start at 11:35 with about five vachts in the fleet, The Saracen seems to have the advantage of the Kathaleen. ‘THE COURSE OF THE BOATS. 11:55 a.m.—The course of the smaller boate is from Half-Way rock direct to Southwest mark,off Hardings, and return, a distance of 23!4 nautical miles. They are standing down under a spank- ing breeze. Large schooners are heeling over to astiff breeze on their outside course and will | make a quick run.

Sprixcrietp, Itxs., July 15.—Two hundred members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers held a secret session yesterday in this city. Chief Arthur said there was no truth in the report that the object of the meet- ing was to unite the associations of the engi- neers, conductors, switchmen and brakemen. and that the only purpose was to get together in a social wa: He admitted the brakemen | aud switchmen desired the consolidation, but | denied that it idered in the mecting. | The chiet expzessed positive opposition to the aid he thonght that nine- tenths of the brotherhood agree with hin. A -known railroad oficial said last night, however, that it has becn known in railroad tisfied with the outcome of the strike on the Burlington system, and it has been under- stood that this 1 as to consider the best plan of retric former power.

Memrnis, Teny., July 15.—Yesterday morn- ing Swan Bures, a negro charged with the murder of a young white man named White- huret, was lynched at Iuka, Miss.

He Says He Was Beaten and Has No Exouse to Make. ‘THE SUN HAD MORE TO DO WITH IT, wVER, THAN SULLIVAN—HE SATS HE WAS IN GOOD CONDITION, Curcago, July 15.—The following interview with Jake Kilrain just previous to his depar- ture for the east last night is published here: The reporter called Kilrain’s attention to the published statements that he was not in con- dition when he went into the ring and that he was terribly bruised and _ battered up when he came out of it. invited an inspection of his body. A careful scrutiny of his body and of his face failed to disclose any wound, swelling, or even discolor- ation, Kilrain then said: were fools, They raved about Sullivan's pu: ishing blows, and had my body nearly broken in two, my ribs stove in, and I was injured in- ternally eo that I couldn’t live, If Sullivan is the punisher they say he is, and I was pounded the way they say Iwas I ought to show some signs of it. If Iwas sick when I went into the ring the fight and the run I had through Indiana must have done me good. I WAS BEATEN AND HAVE NO EXCUSE TO MAKE; but the sun had more to do with it than Suili- yan had, Perhaps I was not in the best possi- ble condition. I thought I was, and I ain sure 1 was in as good condition as possible consider- ing the time I took to fit myself. The only thing I am suffering now is a sunburnt back. My shoulders were almost roasted and the skin is all coming off them. I don’t know how Sui- livan stood the heat.” “Did he get om to your head?” asked the | reporter. in reply Kilrain rubbed his left hand up and down behind his left ear and added: “Yes, he ‘ot on to my head, but it was back here aud d not do any harm.” “WHY DID NOT YOU TRY TO FINISH HIM when you saw him vomiting?” “Some people will say I ought to have rushed at him at that time, but I know I used good judgment, Iwas watching him closely, and when he began vomiting I decided to take a rest. There were two reasons why I did so, The first was that I was pretty tired and needed rest. and the next was I knew if he was sick it would ouly be a matter of time until he would have to give in. He was not sick; he only gagged at something they gave him to drink and threw it up. If his stomach had become upset enough to make him sick he could not have recovered from and all I would have to do _ was save myself, take my time and win. If I had made a rush at him the tight would probably have ended right there. I had not strength enough to rush him if he was able to make any resistance, and # rush on my part would have beaten me then and there.” “What are your plans for the future?” “I haven't any. I can't tell what I will do until I get home and look around. I may go to California and try to get some of those big purses they offer there. Whether I will go against Jack- son Or not isa question thatI can't say any- thing about at present. I heard Jackson was in town and would have been glad to have seen him. They say he is anice fel- low, Ihave been bothered so much that I did not care to show myself, AllI care for is to get home.” Kilrain Coming East. Pirrspuns, Pa, Juiy 15.—Jake Kilrain, the defeated pugilist, accompanied by his trainer, Mike Donovan, passed through the city on the Pennsylvania railroad limited train this morn- ing. Their state room was locked, they did not —_ for breakfast and seemed fearful of their presence becoming known. No reporter was able to secure an interview. Sullivan Drunk in Chicago. New York, July 15.—Specials from Chicago say that John L. Sullivan is still in Chicago aud that he is still indulging freely in liquor. The specials also state that Kilrain was in Chicago yesterday, but left last night for some unknown point. Gov. Lowry Bound to Arrest Them. Jackson, Mu July 15.—Governor Lowry still expresses his determination to have Sulli- van and Kilrain arrested unless they go out of the country. Proceedings will also be begun immediately against Charles Rich, on whose property the fight took place. SULLIVAN AND SMITH. Money for a Fight Between them to be Raised. Lonpoy, July 15.—From inquiry it is safe to say that the money fora fight between Sulli- van and Jem Smith, articles for which are now in the hands of the editor of Sporting Life, will beforthcoming when the time comes, There is no doubt among Americans here and Englishmen versed in fistic lore that Sullivan | would win, but there is always a feeling in favor of the contestant representing home tal. ent and enough money has been subscribed by | bookmakers to secure the stakes named in the articles. They have a cheerful confidence that they can recoup themselves from the pockets | of the ever gullible public, and tempting in- ducements are now on the way to Sullivan and those of his friends who are supposed to have influence over him. If the affair can be con- eluded, it will most probably take place in Hol- land at the end of the racing season, when the betting gentry will have time to devote to cov- ering the wagers of those of their fellow-coun- trymen, whose patriotic instincts or well-man- aged rumors, may lead them to stake their money upon Smith. As these professionals do not generally bear the most savory reputations, some prominent members of the Pelican club will be put forward as the ostensible promoters of the event. —.__ WALSH, NOT “SIMMONS.” The ’Frisco Police Satisfied He was There When Cronin was Murdered. San Francisco, July 15.—Maurice Walsh, the sailor who was mentioned in connection with the Cronin murder, returned to San Francisco last night from Oakland where be had gone to visit some friends, He readily answered all questions relative to his movements in the cast and in Europe, where he alleges he trav- He is about the same height given as Simmons statue, but in several particulars his description would disagree with that individual, and there is no doubt whatever that Walsh is not only not that person, but also that he was in San Francisco for weeks before and after the murder. Irishmen here, who are considered as best qualified to give an opinion on the matter, scoff at the idea that Ws was in any way connected with the tragedy. The police also reject the theory and state that the | man for whom Walsh was mistaken, while much like a well-known San Franciscoan, has never been in California. Walsh is now a fore- most hand on’a Panama steamer and will sail in a few days, as no attempt has been made to detain him. Latimer the Murderer Insane.
