LoxvoN, June 25.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to the Bek.)—The Genesta has evidently won the great jubilee race irre- spective of all time allowance. The yachts- men at the clubs this morning were amusing themselves with reflections that only people who knew nothing about yachts during the race are those who have paid £120 each to follow these in the Norham Castle. No doubt the passengers have enjoyed the views of the Hebrides and the pleasure of good sea air and brilliant sunshine, but they lost the London illuminations and processions, and have not been able to discover a single racing yacht from the second day after start- ing. One passenger is a special reporter ged for a New York daily. Few ave been made, inasmuch as it was b lieved from the outset that Sir Richard Sut- ton’s experienced navigation and skill in handling the Genesta must result in his winning. The Field to-day says: The progress of the Norham Castlo appears to be somewhat like that of the steamer which set out to accompany the race of the Cambria and Sappho in 1870 and to mark the course. She lost the yachts after the first hour, though making a pleasure trip to the French coast. and saw nothing of them until she returned to Cowes next morning, where she found them at anchor, Those on board the Nor- ham Castle have, however, been able to glean some news of the yachts, for, as one special correspondent on board naively remarks, they have at last been able to hear something of the yachts by reading the telegrams in the newspapers. Yale Freshmen Victorious, Nxw LoNDoy, Conn,, June 25.—The two- miile straightaway race between the freshinen of the universities of Yale and Pennsylvania started at 7 this evening, 'rhe action of the Yale men was magnificent, their stroke being full, vigorous and clean, in dis- tinct contrast to that of their opponents, who pulled racged, The starting stroke was thirty-four for Yale and thirty-six for Penn- sylvania. At tha halt mile, which _was sod by Yale in the rate was: Yale thirty-five, Penns a thirty-four, and there was 'open water between them' going up toward the mile flug. Yale passed the mile in 4:5214, four lengths in front. A mile and a halt was covered by Yale in 4, with another length added to_her lead, She fin- 1shed in 9 minutes and 55 seconds, five and a half lengths ahead of Pennsylvania. ‘Lime— 10:2835, American Athletes in London. [Copyright 1887 by James Gordon Bennett,) LoNvoxN, June 25,—[New York Herald Cable--Special to the Ber.]—This has been the day of the summer meeting of the Lon- don athletic club at Stamfora Bridge, justbe- yond Buffalo Bill's Wild West exhibition. Great interest arose from 1. D. Lange, H. J. Young and W. B. Page, all of the Manhattan athletics, of New York, having entered forthe two-mile walk, thirty yard hurdies, and high jump respectively. About 2,000 attended, including many ladies. The mile and a half handicap was won from the Scratia mark by A. B. George, a young brother of W. G. Geoiye, in 220 yards. The level race, C. G. Wood, of the Black- heath Harrier’s club, lowered the record with 2 econds. ‘The first New Yorker out was Young for the hurdles, wearing an elastic stocking on his left leg and the Manbhattan colors on his breast. He ran in the fourth heat, but only got second, four yards behind, giving the winner eight yards. He explained his deteat by saying: “My left leg Is sprung and I am afraid of interferring with my cham plonship chancehaal gone faster. My leg has fmproved lately. I hope to be all right for July 3, when 1 run for the Ameteur cham- plonship one hundred and twenty yards hur- dle.” The next race was & two mile walk, with lange, the smallest of the competitors, Ho was on the scratch with the Spartan Harrier Adamson, a very fast walker, but Lange led him fifty yards in the first half mile, and walking remarkably well, amid cries of *“Bravo, Lange,” “Go on, Lange,” and continucus cheering. He took the lead a half mile from the finish, and, walking well without exertion, finished at 14 minutes, 32 seconds, only eleven seconds behind the record, which could have prob- ably been beaten had he been pushed, as he did the first mile in seven minutes. Young took Lang straight in the decision room, swhere he held an impromptu reception, sev- eral judges and their friends coming to greet the American, Iasked Lange what he in- tended doing with his prize, which wasa silver cup. He laughingly replied: ‘1 shall take it to New York and exlubit it in the club house for the boys.” Page, who had @ very easy task in the high jump, but who came solely to win the cham- pionship next Saturday, thought discretion the better part of valor and refused to jump, because, as he explained, his foot was still sore and weak, caused by his great jump at Madison Square gardens, He has his first jump next Thursday, and Saturday competes almost untrained. He is obliged to take daily swimming practice to keep himself in training exercise. ‘The prizes were distributed by Lady Mayoress Hanson, whose husband is one of the viee presidents of the club, She intro- duced another vice president, who spoke flatteringly of Lange's victory, adding: *It will do good in both countries to see for- eigners come hereand win our prizes.” All three Americans assured me that the London Athletic Club, who had made them all honorary members, had and are doing all they ean to make their visit comfortable.

The programme was interesting tbroughout and an admittance fee was cnarged of 50cents, and the proceeds given towards paying a small deficiency that exists in the soldiers’ home fund. About £300 Wwas raised. Considerable excitement was caused yes- terday by the arrest of several prominent business men who retused to pay their occu- pation tax. E. V. Van Camp resisted Ofticer O'Nell and quite’a scuffle ensued, which re- sulted in Van C Damp's being taken before Police Judge Garn and fined and put in jail. Others gave bail and the question of the validity of the law is to be tested in the courts. The necessity of the law was caused by too low valuations b{ the assessors, which when taxed to the full limit fails to produce suffi- cient revenue for the city’s expenses, Au- thorities differ as to the lezality of enforcing such a tax. The average valuations made b assessors here has been only about one tenth of the actual valuation.

The Collapse of Wheat in Ohicago in No ‘Way Affects the Banks. MONEY LOANS ON SAFE MARGINS Earnings ot Leading Rallroads Show Considerable Improvement Over the Corresponding Period Last Year, CrcAGo, June 25.—|Special Telegram to the Bek.|—Local financial affairs attracted considerable attention during the week just closed. Complications arising out of the re- cent collapse of the wheat market have in- volved some of the local banking institu- tions, as they advanced quite liberally on that deseription of property, but the losses sustained will be meagre, as the bulk of the loans were made on wide margins. All the Chicago banks are undoubtedly solvent, and no fears need be entertained of any loss on their account, The property they hold will be gradualiy disposed of, so as not to make any impression on the market, and the money returned to the banks. The demand for money during the week was falr, though not so urgent as during the previous three or four weeks. The amounts called for, too, were smaller than usual, Indicating that par- ties wanted suflicient funds to tide over the present emergency or until they get their affairs settled up. Speculative paper was in little favor and very little was accepted by banks, Considerable mouey was forwarded to the country to pay for grain and live stock received, but chiefly through commission houses. Lumbermen and whole- sale merchants haveasked for few favorsand have been accommodated. Some demand has existea for money for the payment of property to be delivered on July contracts and some money has been loaned at very wide and safe marzins. Ratesof interest are well maintained at 6X@7 per cent on call and 6@ per cent on time loans, depending on the standing of borrower and the amount required. Some paper was oftered on the street and accepted at about bank rates. Money at eastern financial centres is gradu. ally working closer,owing {0 the drain on the banks from western depositors and increased amounts required to pay for liberal quantities of grain being forwarded to that -quarter, Rates of interest have been advanced to 6@ per cent. 1In foreign financinl centers there is no particular change to note. Money is abundant at falr rates of interest. New York exchange was offered rather freely during the past week, while the demand was only fair. The market was weak and somewhat unsettled and sales wero made between banks at 60250 cents discount per $1,000 and closed rather easy at G0@G5 cents discount. Foreign exchange was in ¥ood supply owing to the Increased exports of cotton, petroleum and grain and the demand was somewhat limited. The market ruled weak and ship- pers’ sixty documentary bills on London changed hands at $4.815,@4.52'¢ and closed rather slow at $4.81{@4.81}%. Tha New York stock market showed a little more ac- tlvuyunr‘m’; the past week and prices ruled somewhat irregular and averaged lower. Karnings of the leading railroads still show considerable improvement over the returns of last year, but the unsettled feeling in commercial and financlal circles has caused somo reallzing by parties who liave bean cnrrfiinu round lots, Early in the week the market was steadier and prices were slightly higher, but within the past two or three day’s a weak feeling was manifested. With large offerings the market was decidedly unsettied and prices declined heavily. At one time a panic was feared, but _ large operators purchased liberally and checked the decline. Wall street _operators traded rather freely, but eutside traders were somewhat indifferent about making transactions. London operators were mod- erately free sellers, and the feeling abroad was loss favorable to American securities than for some time past, Sales on the New York stock Exchange during the week ag- gregated 2,006,000 shares. Business on the Chicago board of trade stock exchange was comparatively light during the early part of the week, but a Jittle more activity was mani- fested toward the close. Operators :have not fully recovered 1zom the etfects of the recent panic in the grain markets, and were not disposed to trade much in stocks at present. Dealers in local bonds, stocks and securities alse were indifferent about trading to al lK extent. Asmight be expected, the past weel has been an unsettled one in produce circles, due to the effects of the recent sharp decline in_ prices of cereals, rumors of further financial complications aris. ing therefrom and the inability of solvent houses to close up their trades satisfactorily Considerable nervousness was manifested early in the week and distrust and lack of coniidence prevailed to some extent as was evinced by free calling of margins, but all demands wera promptly met and no fail- ures of any significance were rcported. The assurance wiven by leading capitalists and bankers that they would stand by each other in any emergency, deeming the present prices” of property’ reasonable, also haa a strengthentug inflience and tended erently 1o encourage legitimate bnsiness, While the losses sustained have been quite large in the gregate outside of threa or four houses, they were very widely scattered, Such a severe shrinkage in values could not have been sustained without impairment of capital, and considering all the fortunate surroundings of the trade the commission houses of Chicago may be congratulated on supporting their finan- cial Sumllng as well as they havein sus- taining the brunt of the panic. Within the past twoor three days the outlook has been more encouraging, and more confidence has been expressed in all quarters, Trade is im- m‘uvlms gradunlly, and there is little doubt but business will be on a more solid basis after deliveries on July contracts have been made. The tirms who were unfortun- ately carried down with the wieck have made propositions to_their creditors, and are settling up as rapidly as possible prepara- tory to resuming business. Speculative trading has been comparatively light during the woek, as operators desired to close up their affa eenerally, Inquiry on shipping account was quite brisk and trading in the aggregate showed a marked improve- ment. Receipts of grain have been moderate at all western points, considerably Jess than during the previous two or three weeks. Ex- ports from the seaboard were quite liberal, with )’\roik‘efis that they will be considerably enlarged during the next three or four weeks. Arrival of live stock have been large at all western points. Packing in the west is pro- gressing favorably, though not quite as large now as at this time last year, yet showing an increase since March 1 as compared with re- turns of last scason.
