FIGURES GIVE THE SHAMROCK VICTORY LONDON, July 27.—The Yachting World, issued to-day, contains a long article on | the Shamrock’s chances in the contest for | the America’s cup. Starting upon the as- sumption t the Vigilant and Britannia were equal, the writer argues that the | Shamrack showed herself to be capable of beating the Britannia in a moderate breeze twenty-five to twenty-six minutes over a thirty-mile course. With time al- lowance the Shamrock’s superiority would be fifteen to twenty minutes. As the De- fender's superiority over the Vigilant in sailing the same course is estimated at six minutes and the Columbia’s superiority over the Defender is assumed to be three minutes, it is estimated that the Colum- bia’'s superiority over the Vigilant is nine minutes. Therefore, according to the | Yachting World's article, there are ex- cellent grounds for the belief that in the yresent condition of both yachts the Shamrock will win. BRISTOL, R. I, July 2i.—The Colum- < steel mast was stepped to-day. It s in place by 7 o’clock this morning, the workmen having begun on it before day light.

As it stands, the mast looks taller than that of the Defender and is considerabl darker in color.

American Athletes Greeted by Eng- lish Statesmen. LONDON, July 27.—The members of the Yale-Harvard athletic team, which par- ticipated in the university contests at the Queen’s Club on Saturday, were enter- {ained in the Parliament buildings to-day, where their clean-cut appearance elicited much admiration from former athletes who are now members of the House of Commons. The American athletes occu- pied seats in the distinguished visitors’ gallery of the house, and subsequently tea was served to them on the terrace, where A. J. Balfour, Joseph Chamberlain and others joined the party. Mr. Balfour specially evinced interest in the team, king many questions and expressing the hope that an Oxford-Cambridge team would go to the United States next year. Lee Knowles, member of Parliament for the West Division of Salford, former champion runner at the half mile dis- tance, then conducted the team through the building.

Arrest of Henry Mitchell for Having Young Mallard and Teal Dur- ing the Close Season. Henry Mitchell, head salesman of the poultry commission firm of O'Brien & Spotorno in the California Market, was and ng terday by ner Charl Deputy Fish s A. Vog arrested ye: me Commis for violating the State law which pro- hibits the sale or possession of wild ducks in the closed season. The game in questicn was a lot of about five dozen makard and teal duc Nearly _all of them were so young that the pin feathers had not been developed, but they were very fat. The Kiiling of ducks is not per: mitted under the State law until October 1, and that the salesman knew that he was guilty was manifest by his actions. Vogelsang was in the market when the game arrived. It was securely packed and the cover of the box was firmly nailed down. Mitchell moved the package from one place to another in the stalls in a manner that attracted the attention of the deputy who watched for developments, fully be: lieving that there was something crooked going on. At last Mitchell went up two fiights of stalrs with the box, and a little later Mr. Vogelsang heard the sound of hammering and the breaking of box cov The deputy slipped up after him and found the saiesman with the ducks | opened around him on the floor. Mitchell offered no excuse for having the game in his possession and submitted quietly to arrest. The ducks were expressed to O'Brien & Spotorno from the San Joa- 3uln Valley. Last_ year another game ealer was arrested for a similar offense and fined $100 in the Police Court, after flfi_hnng the case to the end. 'he Game Commissioners do not lay so much blame for the violation of the law upon the market hunters as they do upon the high-toned patrons of the first-class restaurants, where this kind of game find the greatest demand. This demand, they contend, is what makes law-bhreakers of the hunters and commission merchants, as well as the keepers of the eating houses mentioned. The game of the State is growing more scarce every vear, and this may be attributed to a great extent to the unlawful killing of young native birds, which like the mallard and breed here, to satisfy the appetites of a number of moneyed men who wish to oose as epicures. The case against Mitchell will come up in the Police Court to-da 1d it will be carefully watched by the real sportsmen to see that there | is no slip in the cogs of justice. —_—————— Large Catches of Salmon.

DENVER, July 27.—Gus Ruhlin of Akron, Ohio, got the decision over | George Lawler of Milwaukee in the | ninth round before the Olympic Club | to-night after a very poor exhibition | so far as sparring was concerned. Law- | ler's ability to stand punishment was the only creditable feature of the affair, Ruhlin forced the fighting from the | beginning and seemed to land when- | ever he wished when his arms were free from Lawler’s clinches. | In the first round both men began | fouling with the first blow, and when | Lawler launched a vicious kick at his opponent there were loud demands for the referee to stop the fight. ‘‘Bat” Masterson, who was the referee, re- fused to do this. He declared the crowd had paid its money to see a fight and the men should fight. In the second | round Lawler went down from a right on the jaw and stayed down fully ten seconds. Still the referee declined to declare him cut. In the third round Ruhlin knocked his opponent through | the ropes. Lawler made few attempts to Ruhlin, but clinched andpwe‘nlh?f:dt?lz floor repeatedly to avoid punishment, | Ruhlin’s blows landed oftenest on Law- ler’s face and seemed to have little ef- fect. In the ninth round Lawler went down several times to avoid punish- ment and finally the referee declared him out, though his seconds protested vigorously, Lawler being on his feet a second later. There were demands for another round, but Masterson said “no.” The preliminary bout was betw. Eurene Turner, Jack MocKennas. cor ored unknown, and Kid Brooks. both of Denver.

Jimmie Anthon champion bantam-weight of Australia, was the winner, and the fight was his at any time he wished to put Maynard out. Maynard fought under a great dis- advantage, his opponent being about ten pounds the heavier. Anthony's weight, superior reach and height were used to advantage, but he was very considerate of his opponent, allowing several good openings to pass when he could have se- verely punished Maynard.
