The betting in the morning was , to in favor of Trickett, but before the start to was offered on Han Ian and in some cases to l. The start took place at 12:14 o'clock, the tide being almost full. Hanlan had the Surrey side of the river. very even start was effected, Hanlan strik- ing the water at the rate of B strokes to the minute and Trichett at the rate of Al. Han Ian rowed easily and in perfect style showing his superiority from the first stroke The betting on the press boat at the start was to 1 on Hanlan, but ashore even money was laid. Hanlan rowed in a dark blue sleeveless guernsey, and Trickett wore similar one of buff. Both men were bareheaded. After leaving Hammersmith bridge HanIan took Trlckett's water and literally played With the race. He eased up and looked around and stopped altogether once Several times he laid on his back, and many thought Hanlan had fallen overheard. He would then recover himself and row first with one hand and then splashing the other about in a most amusing style.

 The general impression is that the Austra- han is no more formidable match for Han Ian than Courtney was. Trickett was backed heavily by his friends until the very last, and the discontinue among them is complete His enormous size and strength quite inn posed upon some of the professionals here, but the keen eyes and everyday expe- rience of the Thames watermen gave the race In advance to Hanlan. They were in his fa- vor to man almost, and the loud cheers that greeted his appearance were as hearty as they were numerous. As among the Thames water men, the feeling in the city was with Hanlan, and his easy triumph was accepted almost as a matter of course
 Hanlan is much gratifed at the reception of numerous telegrams from the United s5a.esi states and Canada including one from the Sydney and Melbourne sat up until the result of the race reached Australia, which was at The antipodeans are disappointed and lost heavily, as they thought Trickett was certain to win
 LONDON, Nov 16.-The newspapers this morning consider Hanlan's victory as a triumph of skill over strength, and praise his grace and sprightliness. Hanlan declares that he will participate in the international race unless he is i'll.
