ENGLISH OPINIONS,

Three of the Leading Newspapers of
 London Give Their Views on the
 Pres1denlss Message
 LONDON, Aug. 9.-Commenting this afternoon on the message of President Cleveland, presented yesterday to the American congress, urging that body to repeal the silver purchase provisions of the Sherman act, the Pall Mall Gazette says: "President Cleveland's trenchant document shows very clearly the evil ef- fects of the mad legislation of 1890, es- pscially as there were no internal or natu- ral economic causes operating toward the creation of the financial depression lately existing"
 | The Westminster Gazette says: ''The message Is more remarkable for what it omits thsn what 1t contains. Although President Cleveland Is on safe ground in recommending the repeal of the Sherman act, 1t is doubtful If the financial or the commercial position will be materially i'm
 proved unless prompt action is taken to
 render the currency mobile. The message
 is disappointing as failing to suggest some distinct and mstured plan of relief" The Globe, in an editorial on the sub- jeot, says that President Cleveland's mas. sage is clear statement, providing the world at a single view with the completed experience of the United States. It Is ar American object lesson having immediate English home application.

ZIMMERMAN WAS BEATEN.

A. ku HI A N " AS The Chicago Riders Set Too Fast a
 Pace for the Champion and He Was
 Defeated by an open Length by
 Johnson.
 CHICAGO, Aug. 9-For the first time during the L A.W. meet Zimmerman was beaten from the scratch to-day. John s. Johnson of Minneapolis, assisted by Futile and Kniselsy, accomplished his defeat in the fve-mile national championship by crossing the tape an open length ahead of the great New Yorker. Ti"
 Two Chicago riders set fast pace for Zimmerman for four miles and bunch of wheels kept the champion sprlnting until the upper turn was reached the last time. There Zimmerman pulled away for his final spurt, with Johnson after him. The great distance and the manner in which the pacs-makers forced him out made his final effort comparatively weak, and Johnson passed him with ease. The last quarter was run in 28 2-5 seconds. Kniseley finished the fourth mile in 1918, lowering the worlds record made by Nun ger in Evansville last year by 15 second. l This was far the best race of the meeting and was a hot contest from start to tape. It looked like plan of "anything to beat Zimmerman" Kniseley first set the pace, and, tirirg Githens, took his place. Then Futile went to the front, and all but Johnson having taken part in killing of the champion, Johnson, fresh from the rear, advanced and won. Previous to this Zimmerman had won three rscee: The | quarter-mile national championship, the one-mile ordinary, national championship, and the one-mile scratch. He did moi start in the handicaps.
 1 The fve-mile race saved the day from being dull, the only other brilliant feature being the work of A. T. Crooks of Buffalo | in the one and two-mfle handicspr, bott of. which he won.
 In the two-mile handicap three men fell
 W. F. Murphy of New York was injured
 He was bruised and had his legs cut. Tn, other two injured were Brandenberg O. Chicago and Warren of Hartford. John son, Tyler and Futile did their best to bea
 Zimmerman in the qusrter-mile cham
 pionship, but the latter won easily.
