an undergraduate with any college or university in
America for the greater part OF the collegiate year
recently closed or now closing.
This notice is short, but OF necessity as the idea
did not occur till very recently. But it Is really
for many long enough, as at this time of year such
numbers are from much exercise at rowing, base
ball or in other ways in quite good condition. that
II they make the most OF the time yet remaining
they can show well In the hour of trial. The
quickest time by any Oxford or Cambridge man

expected that these figures will be equalled
here this year; but any one who can on the day of
the race run two miles in twelve or even thirteen
minutes had better enter, as the renewal of these
offers next year Will depend much on the result of
this.
All entries must be made by letter to the address

POLICE CHANGES.
The Military Element To BE Introduced
Into the Force.

The Military Element To BE InIrod uced
Into the Force.
The loungers about the Central once yesterday
morning were more than usually numerous. Some
rumors had spread to the effect that important
changes were to be made, and the place eek ers
were early and largely in attendance. The fact
seemed to have entirely escaped their memories
that the day was not one of those on which the
Board meets. moments reflection would have
taught them that no transfers, dismissals re-
tirements would be made without the full Board,
and that would have been impossible yes
terday, as all the members were not
in town. There are, however, some changes going
on that are certainly taken no notice Of by the
loungers about headquarters but which are Of q
very important nature to the public. These i'm
provements look more to the general standing and
efficiency OF the force than to the qualification OF
any particular set OF men or to please political
partisans. AS soon as the present Board OF CON-
missioners took ONCE General Duryee directed his
attention to the drill OF the men. He made two
or three inspections OF them, and On the closing
day OF these examinations delivered them
an address cOmplimenting them upon
their qulckness and steadiness OF movement.
While General Duryee was able to admire the pro-
fciency OF the officers In drill as they understood
1t ne saw many things that could be conveniently
introduced in the system that would tend mate
rally to advance II In point OF emciency ior public
Commissioner was the putting the men into more
military training and teaching them the Of
arms. The idea was communicated to some OF the
other Commissioners, and they entertained 1t
warmly. General Duryee's desire Is to have the
men properly instructed in military drill, and to
have them supplied with arms SO that in
could be used at once without waiting 10
call out militia or the regular soldiery. The
movement would be beneficial in many ways. 1t
would give the officers greater reliance in them
selves and cause an increased fear OF them by the
"rOugnBD-tWO
which are very desirable at the present moment.
1t is understood that General Duryee IL now max
ing arrangements Tor GIFT OF 1000 stand OF arms
from the State to the police, and as soon as he OBJ
tains them operations will begin at once.
The feeling among the men on the subject is one
OF great satisfaction, as the arrangement will give
them greater security. Street cleaning Is almost
entirely occupying the attention Of Commissioner
Charlick, He was cl0seted for long time yester-
day with superintendent Thorne, and afterwards
made a tour Of the street cleaning bureau with
that officer,

Special Herald Reports from
London and Madrid.
STILL A PRISONER AT SANTANOfR
His Transfer to Madrid Ordered Hopes
of His Release.
TELgGRAMs TO TaE NEW YORK HERALD.

LONDON, July z, 1873.
Mr.. James J. O'Kelly, the imprisoned
HERALD Commissioner, is still confined in the
national prison of santander, Spain.
HIS PRISON.
His present quarters are somewhat better
than those he was forced to occupy in the
island of Cuba, but they are far from being as
good as they might be.
WHY HIS CASE HAS BEEN NEGLECTED.
The last Spanish revolution has imposed
upon the government duties deemed more i'm
perative than releasing unjustly imprisoned
foreigners. 1t is evident that Mr. O'Kelly
must linger in prison yet little longer subject
to the barbarous impulses of Spanish officials.
DIPLOMATIC OPINIONS.
Telegrams received from MIR. Layard, the
British Minister, and from Minister Sickles
are to the effect that the Spanish government
are well disposed in the case.
Mr.. O'Kelly Ordered to Change His Pres.
ont Prison for One In Madrid.
MADRID, July 7, 1873.
The Colonial Minister has ordered Mr.
James j. O'Kelly, the HERALD Commissioner,
to be transferred to this city.
HOPES OF RELEASE.
There ia GOOD reason to believe that his re-
lease will soon follow.

facts forbid the indul renee of the

operations and it is said that in New

be thrown out Of employment this
month. There is no experimenting
the truth now that the panic Is a
