OVER TIE QUEENS COURSE.

The American Schooner, Tampa, Bpaten

q nice, whole sail westerly breeze this
morning. Mr.. R. s. Palmer's crack
American schooner cruiser, Yamps, and
Mr.. Fred K. Wills English cruiser
schooner, Amphitrite, stared in a race
for prize of 100 pounds, over the
old queens course. Amphitrite wo n
easily without her time allowance. She
was sailed by Captain Comes, OF the
Meteor.
The contest grew out Of the fact that
when Yampa won Lord Iveaghs two
hundred guinea cup on Wednesday last,
over the same course, Amphitrite being
second, Mr.. Wills protested against the
cup being awarded Ysmpa on the
ground that the latter carried nine in
excess Of the number allowed by the
rules governing the contest. Mr. Pal
mer did not deny this but claimed that
he could not have sailed his yacht with
less mum Der Of men. The affair final
iy resulted in an arrangement being
made to decide by race, both yachts to
carry as many men as they desire.
Great interest was taken u the event.
especially as rumor is in circulation
here that if the Defender fail TO retain
the Amer can cup, an American schooner
Will be sent after it next year. The
course Is fifty miles long and the boats
were sent away to the westward

VICTORIA, B. c., August 14-The

rived with advices from Yokohama, up

though entirely without official con-
hrmation.
Chinese officials in Pekin are unable
to resist the temptation to show their

part OF the new Japanese envoy's duties
is to call them to account when thew
become offensive.

nese people were spoken OF as insuiar
barbarians.
Az no previous time has intercourse
between Japanese and Americans been
so friendly as now. Officers of United
State vessels stationed at Yokohama
are constantly receiving hospitable
courtesies from the military and naval
authorities OF the empire, chiefly in
commemoration Of the hearty welcome
given by the Petrol to the Japanese
soldiers at Wing Kow last winter.
AT banquet offered by Marshal Nozu
70 Admiral Carpenter and his subordi-
mates the marshal declared that the In.
cldent would never be forgotten, but
would iastingly remind the Japanese of
incl, Indebtedness to their friends who
stood by them while others held sloof.
Hong Kong newspapers assert that a
plot for the violent overthrow of Haw-

featuring dynamite bombs in a small

stroyed by these bombs. The police Of

into the affair, but none of the snsoected
