Both Win.

Special to the Bee
New London, Conn.,, June 28.-Yalc
won the eight-oared varsity shell race
today, beating Harvard by about six
lengths. Defeat came to Harvard in a
sudden and unexpected manner. Har-
ward was in the lead when Hardin, the
stroke, who had replaced the disabled
Captain Higginson, collapsed before the
three and one half mile flag was reached
and Harvard finished with seven oars, so
that Yale won hollow victory. The
four cared race, as expected, proved a
rather easy victory for Harvard. The
crimson substitutes took the lead at the
snap of the pistol and had no difficulty
in keeping it. The freshmen contest
was something Of disappointment to
the New Haven men, for the Yale young
sters had been picked as winners. In
stead, Harvard showed them the rudder
for two miles and the event was some
thing in the nature of procession.

Special to the Bee.
Butte, June 28.-Everything is in read
mess for w. A. Clark's gorgeous depart
ure from the state. His special train
will leave here at 9 o'clock Saturday
morning. 1t will consist of five cars,
this number having been found neces-
sary to accommodate the crowd that will
accompany Clark. By adding two cars
it has also allayed the jealousy which
had arisen among some of his supporters
because they thought they were being
snubbed. The train will make slow
run through eastern Montana to Billings.
This is done in order to give the people
along the line an opportunity to give
vent to public opinion as Clark passes
through. Clark's agents are said to be
in many of the towns charging tanks
with large quantities of enthusiasm,
which is expected to come forth in the
form of Spontaneous outbursts" when
the Clark special passes.

UlafaVOrable Conditions.

1.-The weather conditions during the
week were generally unfavorable to
crops, except in the west portion" says
Section Director Glass in his weekly
crop report issued yesterday. 1.-The week
began with showers on the 10th and 18th,
and in the east portion the storm of the
18th was accompanied by severe hail
storm, which did much damage to crops
in the vicinity of Poplar. The showers
came too late to be of much benefit to
range grass. These weather conditions
were followed on the Goth and 21st by
extreme hot weather, which in many
places throughout the state was the
warmest on record for June.
1.-THE range grass has been dried up by
the extreme heat and crops that have
not been irrigated are suffering for want
of moisture. The hay crop in the west
portion is slightly below the normal, in
the central portion the hay crop will be
about half crop while that of the east
portion is almost total failure. The
potato crop is suffering greatly by the
ravages of potato bugs and other de-
structive insects. Water in the streams
is getting low and many springs are dried
up that have never been dry before, and
cattle have long distances to 60 to get
water"

at Pekin, the Chinese government de-
serves some credit, the Shanghai CORE
spondents think, for restraining the
fanatical mob. The Shanghai CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says: 1T is
reported on good Chinese authority that
the government is greatly alarmed by
the foreign military preparations and
has issued an edict ordering peremp-
tory suppression of the Boxers and an
nouncing it's decision to protect the
foreign legations at all hazards" Follow
ing are the casualties of the Interna-
tional forces attacking Tien Tsin:
Americans, three killed and two wounded;
British, two killed and one wounded;
Germans Is killed and 27 wounded;
Russians, 10 killed and 81 wounded. The
gun fire of the Americans and British is
described as beautiful" The latest
news received by the government was
contained in dispatch from Tien Tsin,
dated June "a, from which it appeared
that Vice Admiral Seymour sent word
that he had siezed small arsenal north
of Tien Tsin, where he was being bonn
barded by large number of guns, and
had lost 40 men killed and 70 wounded.
Che Foo, June 2S.-Admiral Seymour's
expedition has been relieved, having
failed to connect with Pekin. There is
no news from Pekin. The Russion colo
mel, Schtelle, commanding combined
force of 10000 men is supposed to be
proceeding to Pekin. Admiral Seymour s
expedition is returning to Tien Tsin.
His force has suffered greatly. It is
estimated that from 10000 to 10000
Chinese troops are now before Pekin and
Boxers from all sections are swarming
there.

New York, June 28.-Severe criticism
has been called forth from every quarter

tana had offered to contribute 81 100000
for the Bryan campaign. Everything
connected with Clark's newest scheme of
bribery has been kept a profound secret,
but the rumor leaked out today. Clark s
plan was to have the announcement of
his contribution madein the convention
at Kansas City with as much ceremony
as possible, thereby reaping what benefit
there might be in it for himself. No one
believes that the party leaders will for a
moment consider any such plan as it is
said Clark proposes.

discoverer went on his way and when he
returned the outfit had been removed.
