Large CargOes to be Shipped to India

NEW YORK, Nov 16.-It was learned
to-day that negotiations are under way
for the charter of an $4,000 quarter
steamship to load at this port with
grain for Cork for orders, with the
privilege of Bombay direct. The Bonn
bay rate is said to be fixed at eight
shillings a quarter. The shippers are
believed to have prepared for this cargo
by purchasing $1,000 bushels Of corn
and $4,000 bushels of mixed oats. 1t is
also reported that ~ 900 bushels OF No
/ hard Duluth wheat for prompt ship
ment to Australia has been purchased.
and that cargo of flour is under nego-
tiation to be shipped to the same
market. These charters and purchases
are taken as confirmation of the
famine reports in India and the short
crop in Australia

RACE BETWEEN THE PAGERS AT
BELMONT PARK.
The Former Wins in Three Straight
Heats in 2:O4 1-2, 2:O5 IL and
2:O6-On Other Tracks.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1.-THE at
tendance at Belmont Park today to see
the race between the PAGERS Star Point
er (2:031a) and Joe Patchen C:n3HD
was not so large as the attraction an
nounced warranted. Star Pointer won
in straight heats without turning a
hair. In each heat he reached the
quarter and half in exactly the same
time-0:301a and 1:C1-a rather re-
markable coincidence. The first heat
was taken by an open length, the sec
ond by three and the third by seven
lengths In the second heat Patchen
broke twice.
Mignon and Saladin Were driven two
heats, the former winning in 2.16E2 and
2:12h, when the latter injured himself
and was withdrawn. Mignon was then
sent against her record Of 2:10A, and
the time was 2:09H A dozen watches,
however, caught the time at 2:OS12.
Her time for the first quarter was an
nounced as OBI, only half a second
slower than Star Pointer. The time
for the fractions that followed was not
announced.
Following is the time by quarters of
