June ?T Twetuy ihoiiMind jHHiple tilay niw one of the most, exciting fouimlle boat race evr wltnweil In itie history of .vlle rowing. Five thousand people on an ob. nervattlon train yelled themselves harso In frantic upleals to tllielr vnrtoua ooU ligo crews to do their besi, and with IS.tw tlu-y suw 1'ennsylvanla carried over the lliu. winner by a, short half lentjth from th WlsconJltw. who kwt in rtte last Sm yards by Iwd atoerlng. Cornell, the vlctr of former year, pulled after full four lengths In the rear. and Columlitu, never In Che ftht after the end of the tlrst mile, trailed In a good rhree lengths from the stern of the Cor noil 'boat. U was that kind of a race Uiat make tte blood tingle, and wa. made w by the crew that same over 1000 mlk no meet former victors, for with out tho gallant Wisconsin In the race It would have been a doleXul procession, after ah second mile was entered. To say there was surprise when the Wlsooiv sin shell wvpt mile after mile of the course until The lust half was reached with a clear lead over all the crews Is putting li mildly. The alleged ragged stroke, 'badly keeled boat and too long re. olv were all rgotten as the fast mov tng shell kept Ita sllianp nose tn tho fore and then the people saw the leader turn out towards the Shore at the finish and loso the raoe to the mew. from Pennsyl vania by a short halt length. Well did the Pennsylvanlans obey the Injunction of Ellis Ward to not lose their heads. From the first eighth of a mil. ' they rowed a stern, hard cliase, at on. time belmr astern of both Cornell and Wlsoon sin, but Uielr pluck and endurance sent rhom over the line first in good time and by such, a umall margin that the glory is greater. For Cornell, winner of winny battles, the xntest proved to be a race only In two miles. CHINESE PLUNDER FRENCHMEN. NEW YORK. June 17.-A dttoh to ithe Herald from dlonglcong says: , .

THAT RACE WAR BEGINS Three Negroes Killed and One Not Expected to live. (VHITE MEW NOT HURT As Is Usually tbe Cat In tbe Southern Race Wars. NEGROES WERE AMBUSHED KtfrofS Were Miners ic J White Un ion Miners Otjcc:eJ to Tbeir WorkiDf. BIRMINOHAM.

A white man, pass I rig along the road, was held up. and be. silk's belnff abused, was roughly bandied. This news son spread and an armed body of white miners moved toward the hollow. It Is supposed they went around 'by a circuitous route in the mountains and came upon the negroes unexpectedly. E1. Ellis, the ringleader, armed with a Winchester nd Colts' revolver fell at the first fire. A rifle bullet did the work. Ther,. was another volley and four other nesrroes fell.

Republic of Franco S;ronger Than Ever But In Constant Danger of Expiosljn. NEW YORK, June ST.-The Paris cor. respondent of the Tribune, discussing tlie victory of the government, says: The constitution of the republic has had a narrow escape. The majority of 26 Is attributed ito the timely Inlervcn. tlon of M. Brisson. who succeeded in slcmmirur the tide, which, after M. Mir. man's fierce onslaught, seemed about to sweep the oaWnet away. The deafening shouts of "Vive la commune" and "as sassin" with which the socialists greeted the Marquis de Galltfet, are considered the gravest revolutionary symptoms which has occurred in the chamber for many years. The victory won by the cabinet assures a strong executive gov ernment until the conclusion of the Drey fus court martial, but moderate republi can like Rlbot declare that the real danger will come from the socialists who now, for "the first time, participate In the actual government, who fully rea llxe their Increased power and who never before have been so exacting. National 1st reactionist, openly confess that It Is through the socialists that they hope to destroy the republlo and eventually to win the day. -According ito Information received at the ministry of marine Dreyfus Is not expected to arrive before Saturday or Sunday.

June ZT.-A special to th Chronicle from Washington says: A shell of terrific explosive power, with a capacity to annihilate by bursting frag ments and shock, as effective as a streak of ligtitning will be the feature of tho fa'.l campaign In the Philippine islands. Tests of the charge of ithhj terrible en. glue of war are being made at Sandy Hook, the government guarding closely Its secret of manufacture. A shell of this nature, changed with an explosive equal to melinite or dynamite falling near a battalion of the enemy would kill or cripple a very large .percentage of the battalion.
