BROWN IS QUICKLY PUMPED And Is Easily Rowed Down Ely BOw-
 dOfn.

WORCESTER, July 16.-The two mile inter collegiate race which has been so much dis cussed since the muddle of July 4 was settled this afternoon at Lake Quinsigamond when the Bowdoin four defeated Browns crew. So little interest was taken in the race that not cent was wagered. Bowdoin was look ed upon as a sure winner. Both crews had improved very much since July 4, the ''down- east farmers" having learned to use their strength They are rugged set of athletes and very powerful. The Browns. were beat en in the first quarter of mile by the terri fic stroke which they tried to pull. They started at fifty strokes and then dropped to forty-seven, which pace they kept up for three minutes when they were all pumped out. Bowdoin began with 8 spurt at forty eight, but quickly settled down and averaged about forty-two. Both crews steered well and fouls were impossible as the boats were started two hundred feet apart. The Bowdoins gained four boat lengths in the first mile and did not try to increase it and crossed the finish line in about that posi- ton. Their time was 8m. 26s. About twenty five hundred people witnessed the contest. The day was beautiful and the wa ter in perfect condition. Bowdoin wins the college championship and four gold medals.

In the second class the Stiletto had the call and in the first class Jay Goulds yacht Atalanta. At the Pequot and Osprey Beach great coneourse Of citi- zens and strangers assembled. The majority of the crowd seemed to desire the success of the Atalanta, for the vessel won her way here by her splendid performance last year. Herreshoff's Stiletto had also made many friends by her phenomenal speed in the trial with the Mary Powell, but it was not gene rally believed she could hold her steam for trip the whole length of the Sound. The SC quel, however, justified the confidence ire quently expressed by Herreshoff that the Sti- letto is the fastest vessel afoat for she passed the finish line at 3:37 o'clock, hay ing been preceded by the Lucille, The Stiletto left Larchmont harbor at 1851 this morning, making her running time actual four hours torty-six minutes, faster by nearly five minutes than the Alta lanta's time last year. The Atalanta was next to arrive at 4:27:22, having left Larch- mont harbor at 11:32 this morning; actual running time 4:55:22 or minutes astern of the Stilletto. The money king stood on the bridge of his vessel and accepted the news of his defeat philosophically. MT. Heres hoff came ashore shortly after the arrival of the Stilletto, his face bean1ing. The Rhoda arrived at 4:24. She mistook the buoy at Sarahs ledge and lost thirteen minutes look ing for her course, which was right all the time. Cramp & Sons ''246'' came in next at All, steaming in good style and received 8 perfect ovation of steam whistles and artillery when she was recognized. The Aida arrived at 5:15:11; the rival at 5:20:02; Sophia at 5:25:10; the Utawanda at 5:29:34; the Viola at 5:30:31. The timekeeper then withdrew and the later arrivals were not timed. The yachts in the harbor are ablaze with colored fire this evening and from the shore on both sides of the river constant fusilade is being kept uP, with fine pyro- technic display. The iron steamboat com pany's steamer Cygnus accompanied the fleet down the Sound having on board the guests of the club. To morrow the fleet leaves at g a. m. for Greenport and Shelter Island.

 The budget had it's second reading in the House of Commons tonight. During the debate the Rt. Hon. Hugh o. Childers, chan cellor of the exchequer in the late Gladstone cabinet, stated that in spite of the previous adverse acts of the House upon his proposi- tion to increase the taxes upon beer, wine and spirits he was still convinced that the desired addition to the revenue should be derived from those sources He presented figures intended to refute the statement that there had already been shown decrease in the revenue from liquors on account of the imposition for brief period of the increased taxation. He added that he believed the revenue from that source could be brought up to 96, ,000, ,000 annually.
 MT. Gladstone in letter to Mr. Hugh Childers, formerly chancellor of the ex- chequer, says that indirect taxation is an important element of the English system and it would be unwise for Parliament to op- pose it.
