Ross PLAINLY No Match for the
Brawny australian.

LONDON, Sept. 25.-In the boat race on
the Thames to-day between VIM. Beach,
OF Australia, aud Wallace RO7s, Of New
Brunswick, tor $500 side and the cham
pionship of the world, the former beat his
opponent by tour lengths.
Beach won the toss for position and
took the Surrey side of the river. Beach
was the flverite in the betting at odds of
35 to 10. When the signal was given
Ross was first away, but led for only the
first six strokes, when Beach passed him
and steadily increased his lead until he
was two lengths ahead. At Walden's,
Ross spurted, and when Hammersmith
bridge was reached he drew up on Beach.
Several barrels got in Beach's water. and
he was compelled to cross Ross
how, but he avoided foulng. The
Australian soon shot ahead again,
and there were two lengths
between MIN and his opponent. He in
creased his lead to the end. The race was
a procession almost throughout. The
race was rowed over the championship
course from Putney to Mortlake. Beach's
time was 23m. rs.

We are having an era OF practical Joking

STANLEY NOT RECALLED.
Denia! That the Belgian King Has Sent
For HIM.

lCOpWiyM 1886 on james Gordon Bcnnstt.1
BRUSSELS, Dec. l5.-lNew York Herald
Cabe-Special to the BEE. i saw this
morning a leading official of the Congo free
state who is now in Brussels and enjoying
the full confidence of the king. lie said;
THE king has no knowledge of Stanley's
recall to Brussels. When Stanley'S "Emin
Bey" scheme arose the king and the free
state officials discussed whether his eXpedl-
tion could be turned toaccount in the interest
Of the Congo state, but the question was de
eide negatively. The free state administration
are rather put out because Stanley, who was
still in their pay and at their disposal, ne,
elected to to ask the kings permission before
proposing his 'Emin BeY" expedition to the
English government. Nevertheless the king
will offer no opposition whatever to the
expedition, being on the contrary too glad
to contribute to its success by sacrificing
to IL Stanley's services. We, the free state
officials, think Stanley'S task of rescuing
Emn Bey will be very arduous one, and
cOnsiderthc Uganda route very risky. Per-
haps when Stanley was the Herald's special
correspondent he observed the risks, and that
is why he now knows it, as that would be
just like his indomitable pluck"
POSITIVE CONTRADICTION.
LATER-Further information enables me
TO contradict positively Stanley'S rumored re-
call 10 Brussels. OF course, this does not
preclude the possibility OF spontaneous
leave taking visit OF Stanley to the king be-
fore setting out on the expedition.
