NEW YORK, May 3.-Fitzgerald braced up in the
early afternoon, and for couple of hours main

A p. M. and acted very groggy. After this he and
Rowell had frequent spurts, and often passed one

rests during these spnrts and it looked as though
he was running short of breath. Rowell stuck to
the track without intermission during the after
noon.
At O'Clock there were between 5000 and 5000
people in the garden. Fitzgerald made his 600
miles at $40 p. and was greeted with the great
est enthusiasm. Cheer after cheer rent the air, caps
and hats were flung into the air and handkerchief
were waved by many people. Fitzgerald was then
miles and laps ahead of Rowen. He finished
his 601st mile before retiring. He had only been
ont of sight minutes when Rowell appeared. Fiz-
gerald heard of this and then jumped up and went
after the Englishman. This caused another ont
burst of cheers
During the evening Fitzgerald was presented with
silver goblet lined with gold, also two large floral
embems were presented to him during the evening.
They were borne in front of him around the track
Fitzgerald following and waving the flag of Erin.
During the evening the garden was packed as it was
on Sunday night. Fitzgerald the champion remained
on the track, walking slowly around and was
cheered, almost necessarily.
Rowen retired at z IL, but afterward came out
and was loudly appauded Noremac and Fitzger-
aid joined him and there was great enthusiasm man
Tested by the audience they were Joined by Pam
shot Fitzgerald handed Rewell his flag of Erin,
which the latter took courteously Fitzgerald caught
an American flag and another lap was made. The
men then pulled up at the scorers stand and shook
hands. Then three cheers were given for FitZger-
aid and three equallyas hearty for R0well. The

Birmingham.

BIRMINGHAM, May 3.-John DAILY, James Egan
and VIM. MacDonnen were arraigned in the Police
Court to-day on the charge of treason-feony. DAILY
was defiant and mcdonnell detected. DAILY asked
why he was brought to Birmingham to be tried
again after his cemmttal on Thursday to await the
Chester Asszes. The prosecution replied that after
the charge had been prepared against him at LIVER
pool enough evidence had been brought to light to
Justify his removal to Birmingham on graver
charges The prisoners were closely guarded.
Deputies surrounded them in the court ROOM and
others were posted outside. They seemed keenly to
feel their position, especially Egan who listened to
the evidence with close attention. When the de-
tectives described how they had been tracking Egan

nifieant chances. 1t appeared from the evidence
that prior to the recent meetings in the Birmng-
ham Town Hall, which were addressed by the Mar
