BUEEos AYREs, Aug. The revo-
luton in Argentine has caused great dis
tress and the country is on the verge of
financial panic.
The troubles in the states of Buenos

that an early adjustment is not looked
for The revolution has extended to
every city and hamlet in the two states
named and martial law viii be pro-
claimed
At many points the revolutionists have
become 50 formidable as to overawe all
authority The governors of the states
have had great difficulty also with the
troops at their command, which are in
sympathy, to a great extent, with the
revolutionists.
Many startling stories of heavy fight
ing are current, but as the telegraph
wires are either down or in the control
of the insurgents, trustworthy informa-

At several points the rebels have des
troyed the railroads. II is expected that

Champion Wheelmen TO Race for Inter-
national Glory and Medals at Chicago,
Beginning Next Monday.
CHICAGO, August 1.-The entries for
the international bicycle race m eet, to
be held on the grounds Of the League
baseball club in Chicago next week, be.
ginning Monday, closed yesterday, and
are the largest ever received for a simi
lar tournament in this or any other
country Cha pions and ex-champions,
holders of worlds records from every
city in the United States and many from
Europe are entered in the several races,
and the meeting promises to be a most
sensational one.
The list of entries includes the names
Of Arthur Zimmerman, of the New York
Athletic Club, the present worlds
champion; Walter G. Sanger, of Milweu-
kee, the holder Of the one mile worlds
competition record; Osmoud, The eX-
champion Of England, aud Meintjes, the
South African crack who recently broke
the English long distance records.
The star event of the week promises
to be the meeting between Sanger and
Zimmerman. Sanger's marvellous re-
cord Of Pm. 9 5s for the mile, made
in Milwaukee last Saturday, shows that
he is in superb shape, and many critics
believe that he will lower the colors Of
the "Manasquan Wonder" The latter.
however, is in good condition, and is
confident that he will defeat the Mil
waukee man as easily as he has beaten
other champions.
The track, which was constructed
expressly for the meet, is in excellent
condition and very fast. It is predicted
that if the weather is clear during the
week many worlds records will be
hrnlrop
