You may think wheat alone will be

wheat before feeding or crushing"

BELFAST July 1G.--The Britannia

petitors in today's race for the
County Down Cup, over the
Royal Ulster Yacht club course of
fifty miles. The Nigilant, since
her sixth defeat by the Britannia
on Thursday had undergone alter
alton of a radical kind. Her
topmast had been shortened by four
feet and a half, her spanker boom
four feet and cut down an inch in
diameter, and three feet had been
cut off her bowsprit. She has new
wire bobstay, and her ballast has
been lightened. With reduction
of canvas the time allowance to
the britannia is reduced from m.
to m, at 1890, the start was in a
fairly good breeze.
LATER.-The yacht race is half
sailed, and the Vigilant leads by

Los Angeles, Cal, July 1.-THE
Southern California bra ch Of the
Santa Fe announced today that it
proposed to reduce its daily train
mileage 800 miles when the new
time card goes into effect tOmOr-
row. This means a discontinuance
of several local trains and one over
land and the reduction of about
fifty employees. The reason as
signed is a general Generalization
Of business and a probable dull
summer. The statement is made
that this reduction would not have
been made if there had been no
strike. The railway officials pre-
dict an enormous business next
fall and winter.
