ATLANTIC YACHT CLUB.
FLEET ANCHORED IN MORRIS COVE
 LAST EFENING.

Thirty of the Most Famous Boats on
 Their Annual Cruise-F.st Racing from Grocnwich-Enrout to Newport
 Nineteen yachts of the Atlantic Yacht club raced from Greenwich to Morris Cove yesterday and dropped anchor there for the evening, having covered the thrty-four miles in very fast time. "A splendid southwest wind was blow ing, and as the yachts passed the com mittee boat anchored off the "Sperry Light" they made the finest appearance of any fleet seen in these waters in some time. The old schooner yacht Att lantic, owned by Wilson Marshall, the cup defender in 'S6, made the best time utes snd 52 seconds. The Astrild, an imported English cutter, owned by the Hanan brothers of Brooklyn, made the next best time, being beaten only by two minutes and eighteen seconds. Con- sidering the relative size of the boats and that the run was with splnnakers out all the way, the Astrild's perform ance is considered a record by yatchs- men.
 The yachts started off Greenwich Point at Il o'clock, all boats crossing the line at one signal. By mistake lsOme of the schooners and the Water Witch, Vesta and Sylph started ahead Of the signal The first boat to cross fhe line at the finish was the Water Witch, owned by Commodore David Banks, which crossed at 3:40:32. She was followed in order by the Atlantic, Vesta and Astrild The sloops of class es J. K and l., as per the appended rec ord, raced for the Loines cup, offered by Rear Commodore Stephen Loines. This Is what is termed cumulative race. !, the yacht making the best average in three runs winning. Yesterdays race WAS won by J. Weir jr.'s, sloop Eido- lon.
 A famous boat accompanying the fleet is the schooner Vesta, owned by Major J. Frederick Alderman, which took part in the ocean race with the Fleet
 
 in that race amounted to 000. Other yachts and their owners accompanying the fleet are the following:
 A. Van Santvoort's Clairemont, J. Rogers Maxwell's Kismet, A. w. Booths Cyconda, James B. Ford's Kat rina, Charles Lane Poor's Mira, James D. Smiths auxiliary Viking, c. T, Pearces catboat Dot, Rear Commodore Stephens sloop Swananoa, s. H. Ma sons schooner Milady, F. c. Swans sloop Zenobia, E. B. Haven's sloop Ath- lon, Charles Masons sloop Isult and Robert E. Todd's fast steam yacht Pa los
 The fleet anchored last evening in the Cove just off the Pequot club house. This morning at o'clock anchor will be weighed and the fleet will proceed to Shelter Island. From thence on the next day the trip will be to New Lon don and on the following day to New port, where the yachtsmen will witness the race of the New York Yacht club off Newport. The regatta committee in charge of the racing on the cruise is composed of c. T. Pearce of New York and A. F. Aldridge of New York. The racing summary follows:

FRINGE CHING,S MOVEMENT.
British Admiral Reports Thcre is Ground for Believing In It.

London, July S-10:52 a. m.-Rear Ad- miral Bruce has sent a telegram to the admiralty department from Taku, un- der date of July [, to the effect that there are grounds for hoping that Prince Ching, head of the Tsung- Ya- men, and commandant of one of the Pe- kin garrisons, 1t at Pekin protecting the legations with his army against Prince Tuan, his troops and the Box CTS.
 This dispatch from Rear Admiral Bruce strengthened this morning the more hopeful feeling engendered by Saturdays news from Pekin. The dis patch Is in the nature of cont1rma- tion of previous rumors that Prince Ching, who is said to be heading a counter-revolution at Pekin, is fighting on behalf of the legations against the usurper, Prince Yuan. If the rear ad- mirars hope turns out to be well found- ed this turn of events is of the utmost importance, as it is felt here that in some such division among the Chinese themselves lies the best chance of the safety of the foreigners.
 If the powers can find allies in China itself it will materially facilitate the task of restoring order. and those ac- quainted with the country believe that if the diplomatists are able to induce such a man as Ii Hung Chang or Chang -Chi-Tung to send forces to the assistance of Prince Ching the hordes of revolutionaries will dsperse as quickly as they collected, and way to Pekn will be opened without great delay.
 With all due allowance for the uncer- tainty in regard to their reliability, the authorities here feel that the latest messages from the far east give dis tinct hope. If, as suggested, the native sympathizers are able to keep the be- sieged legation reasonably supplied with provisoins the foreign colony may yet escape destruction.
 In the house of commons to-day the parliamentary secretary of the foreign office, William St. John Brodrick, after confirming Japan's agreement to in- crease it's force in China to twenty thousand men without delay and the gallant defense of the legations up to July 5, said:
 There are grounds for hoping that Prince Ching, the late head of the Tsung-Li- Yamen, is exercising his in- f1uence to protect the legations against Prince Tuan and the Boxers.
 Reports from Tien Tsin show that further fighting may be expected there, but no doubt is expressed that the all lied forces will be able to maintain their position. Japanese endorsements are due at Taku immediately and Indian troops will begin to arrive by the end of the week.
 Matters are quite in the Gangtse valley, but additional ships are going there, so that we may be prepared to take the necessary course to maintain order"
 Yokohama, July 9.-The government has finally decided immediately to dis patch 5000 men and 5,000 horses to China The newspapers. in endorsing this action, point out that should the foreigners at Pekin perish, Japan could not be absolved from blame.

Aiaaka Growing Warmer,

Prospective visitors and gold~seekers
In the Klondike region may extract
zome comfort from the discovery, made
Big the Hartman Alaska expedition,
that most Of the glaciers which abound
In that territory are reeeding. The fact
Is an indication that the average
weather there Is growing warmer. Il
It were growing colder the glaciers
would be advancing, while If it were
about the same one year with another
they would maintain the same general
position, neither creeping nearer to tbs
sea nor melting away from their ter
ninal moraines. The rate of glacial
recession Is SO slow. however, that fur
oTereoats and warm sleeping bags are
likely to remain as payt Of the neces-
sary equipment OF Alaskan travel for
some years to come, Nothing, It may
be added, Is slower thaB the move
ment of a glacier, except the settle
ment OF the Alaskan boundary dis

rOsTALC CARD
Delivered After Travelling Distance of
2t,oO0 Miles.

Chicago Chronicle: a faded, travel.
stained postal card was delivered to
Lieut.. G. E. Geln, In charge of the
United States photographic Office In
the Masonic temple, which was mailed
last April. It had followed the naval
officer nearly around the world before
reaching him. and travelled 1000
miles. The postal was addressed to
Lieut.. Gelm April 1. at Washington,
and contained the simple information
that his annual dues as member of
the Navy Mutual Aid association for
the current period had been received
and properly credited. The card was
first addressed to the naval pay Office
at San Francisco, but as It was learned
that Lieut.. Gelm was on board the
gunboat Bennington In the Philip
pines. it was promptly forwarded to
Manila. When the postal arrived
there 1t was found that the naval off,
Ger had gone to the island of Cebu.
and it was dispatched to that port. It
reached there Just two days after
Lieut.. Geim had left for the United
States. By this time the front of the
card was covered with addresses and
interlined Instructions for delivery.
The naval officers had it returned to
the sender at Washington and it
reached there Nov. 10. In the mean
time Lieut.. Gelm journeyed to San
francisco by way of Hongkong, ar
irving in this country in October.
When he reached the Pacific coast he
found telegraphie instructions await.
Ing him ordering him to report to Chi
eago for duty. He came to this city
last week, and assumed charge Of
the naval photographic Office. Lieut..
Gelm intends to have the postal card
framed and hung il his Office az a

SMALL PIPES
And cyiId Tobacco Satisfy the Desires
of Japanese Smokers.

Washington Star: You may have
noticed that the japanese who visit
America are very moderate smokers. =
said a prominent japanese now travel
ing In the United States. Those OF my
eountrymen who indulge in the weed
mostly smoke cigarettes or preferably
the smallest pipes filed with the mild
est tobacco obtainable. OF course,
there are japanese who, like some
Americans, have such craving for to-
baeco that nothing less than the
strongest cigar or the largest pipe will
satisfy them. But such smokers are
exceptionally few among the japanese.
As a rule, my countrymen, while at
home and abroad. are satisfied with
short smokes, such as cigarette or 8
tiny pipe affords. The japanese are
moderate smokers, not so much be-
cause they are small people, but for
che reason that up to within recent
years but very little tobacco came into
Japan and the tariff on It was very
high. Being a poor but fre1gal race,
the masses purchased only HENtted
quantities of the weed. which, as mat
ter Of economy, they have for genera
lions been taught to smoke In only the
tiniest of pipes. These pipes. the most
popular Of which hold about as much
tobacco as would fill an ordinary thin
bic. are the survival Of the days when
money was scarce, tobacco dear and
the tariff high. IN another generation
or two, when Japan shall have taken
her place among the wealthy nations
Of the world. my eountrymen viii no
doubt smoke large quantities Of tobac-
co. and then the small pipes Will be
abandoned tor big ones, such as Eng
nshmen and Americans now smoke

The Longest. swim.

Going with the tide in the Thames
river. Capt. Matthew Webb once swan
distance of forty miles In nine hours
and ffty-seven minutes. Montague 4.
Holbein, an English '1ong-distanee ey-
elist," recently swan three miles
farther, although he made no such
time record. Taking the water at
Blackwell pier in the early morning,
says the London Chronicle, Holbein
went down the river on strong ebb,
which ran until he had progressed two
miles beyond Gravesend. Turning then
with the tide, he came back on the food
to Blackwell. He failed to reach the
pier by mile. owing to the tide fail
ing him, and he left the water quite
fresh and strong, willing, had his
friends SO advised. to turn again and
complete fifty miles. The distance he
had thus covered forty-three miles,
which he swan in twelve hours, twen~
ty-seven minutes, forty-two and three
fourths seconds-is the greatest ever
known to have been covered by a
swimmer, although it has been as
sumed that Matthew Webb, when he
crossed the channel, must have been
borne almost as far by the changing
tides. Holbein swims with a slow but
powerful stroke, half-side, half-back;
he progresses at an even pace and
never seems to tire. He has done some
marvellous feats on the bicycle, and was
at one time an excellent cross-country
runner and distance walker, but this
swim is certainly to be reckoned as his
most remarkable achievement in The
matter Of endurance.
