WITH THE WHEELMEN.

Edouard Taylore, the French cyclist, will arrive ill New York this morning to prepare for his contest with Bobby Walthour, which takes place in Madi- son Square Garden, Monday evening. This race vii be the first in several years the Parisian has ridden in New York, and is anxious to redeem him. self. Amateur races in which all the fast local men will compete will pre- cede the big event.
 With Harry Bikes, Jimmy Michael and Johnny Nelson all lined up be- hind snorting motors capable of going a mile in 1.20 visitors to Manhattan Beach this afternoon may expect to see good race. These three champions will meet in 40-mile race, and it is the boast of each that he will cover the distance within an hour. That a race of forty miles suits the competi- tors in this big triangular event is shown by their past performances. To- day each man will finish at the tape and ride out the full forty miles. This arrangement was made in order that the spectators might have full view of the riders as they pass the scratch in the final lap. In addition to the big race there will be four other inter- esting events, one of which is match paced race in heats between Waltpr Smith, the schoolboy champion, and Pete Van Cott, at one, three and five miles. Manager Brady announces that the first event will be started at 3:30 o'clock and the big race at 5:45.
 The N. c. A., board of control has taken action regarding the disqualifi- cation of George H. Collett for foul rid ing in the grand circuit meet on the night of July 16. The action of the ref cree and information obtained from other sources caused the board to de- eide that Collett was not entitled to any place, money or points in this championship, and the rider will stand suspended, until August l. Tn case Collett prefers to pay fine rather than take the enforced vacation the figure has been placed at $75.

Grand Circuit Races.

DETROIT, July 20.-With a fine track, good weather and scarcely any wind to hinder the trotters and pacers, the clos ing day of the Detroit Driving clubs race meet at Crosse Pointe was uneventful. The first race on the card was the Conso- lation Chamber of Commerce stake of $1 GOO, two in three heats, for 2:24 class pacers. It was favorite's race from the start, and Stanton Wilkes, a chestnut stallion, was the winner all the way in the first and third heats. He lost the second heat to J. c. by bad break at the three-quarter mile pole. New Richmond, who won the 2:27 class pace, created a ripple of enthusiasm by a spectacular hn- ish in the second heat. Carnot was lead- ing until the three-quarter post, when the gray stallion made spurt and led the bunch under the wire in Ell flat.

Mrs. Chas. Freitoy, Moosup, Conn, says: II have taken two bot ties of Burdock Blood Bitters and am feeling better than I ever did in my life. For many years I suffered with severe sick headaches and general debility. Lost all ambition and went about my duties in an airnless manner. Had a tired, worn out feeling all the time, but before I had taken half bottle of E. B. B.. felt relieved and am now feeling like a new woman.
 Mrs. A. w. Ham, Cambridge, Me, says: 1T was in poor health for long time. I was unable to be around or attend to my work, was troubled with constipation, neural gia and poor appetite, in fact, every trouble that attends a rundown condition of the system, and have taken two bottles of Burdock Blood Bitters and the Pills. The first dose set the machinery of life to work, and can say never took any medicine that gave such immediate relief and set me gaining, for which I am truly thankful.

TRADE CONDITIONS.
Labor Troubles Cause Slight Depres- sion-At1antic Exports Heavy.

Labor Troubles Cause Slight Depres-
 sion-Atlantic Exports Heavy.
 NEW YORK, July 2O-R. G. Dun 6 Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Anxiety regarding unfavorahle possi- bilities in the future rather than any actual present misfortune depressed se- curities and caused cancellation of some orders for merchandise by western deal- CTS. Retail distribution of goods will not be curtailed by the labor controversy un- less it is of long duration, as the men have saved money during the recent pe- riod of full employment at high wages.
 Similarly in some agricultural districts where there is fear that little corn will be harvested preceding bumper crops at good prices have put farmers in such prosperous condition that their purchases will not fall off materially, while the greatest crop of wheat on record has not brought return to the low prices of pre- yious heavy yields.
 Beyond advancing prices of steel sheets and depressing the market for tin quota tions have not been affected by the strike of the Amalgamated association. Pig iron furnaces are not disturbed, although record breaking production will bring ac- emulation of stocks if the rolling mills are kept idle for any length of time. ~OAA~CAAACNA there is no change of conditions, order frequently running months ahead.
 Atlantic exports show large gain over last years figures, for the week amount ing to 3,902,775 bushels against 1,841,- S61 year ago. After some reaction corn recovered most Eof the loss, and holders showed their confidence in val ues by marketing only 3.361 ,942 bushels for the week against 4,416, 153 year ago, although the high price was distinct ly reflected in Atlantic shipments of on- ly 1,176,9S2 bushels against 3,961 ,496 in 1900.
 Money ruled easy, last weeks bank statement making an exceptionally fla vorable showing. Foreign exchange was dull and weak, with no further exports of gold. London was heavy seller of American securities.
 Failures for the week numbered 193 in the United States against 231 last year and 32 in Canada against 27 last year.

ALL RUN DOWN

People talk of being all run down, overworked, out of sorts generally.
 Nine times out often it is the blood that is out of order. The blood is the life of the system, you know. Lift becomes thin or lacking in strength the sys- tenn naturally suffers and with a weakened system disease finds an easy mark.
 Burdock Blood Bitters is one ofnature's remedies. A purely vegetable compound. It is a blood maker; it strengthens and builds up the system; drives out the disease by removing the cause.

THE STEEL STRIKE.
Rumors of SettIcment-Preside
 ShafHer's Statement.


 PETERSBURG, July 20.-The strike sit uation last night cannot be termed ma terially changed, although many rumors are in the air to the effect that settle ment of the troubles is imminent. Up to 10 D. m. none of these reports had been verified, and the conclusion reached is that no settlement is in sight.
 At the offices of the Carnegie com pany and at the headquarters of the manufacturers the usual silence is pre- served concerning the condition of busi- ness or the status of the strike
 President Shaffer of the Amalgamated association, however, expresses his entire satisfaction with the progress of the battle and says the workers have gained steadily while the manufacturers have lost continually since last Monday. He says that up to the present time the Amalgamated forces contemplate no change in their programme, being perfect ly satisfied with the showing their peo- pie have made. President Shaffer says the advance in wages offered the tube mill workers at McKeesport yesterday, while seemingly large, will not bring the pay up to the unions scale.
 From the storm center at Wellsville O., comes word that the striking mill men in that vicinity are uneasy and rest less. There is no longer any doubt that the owners of the Wellsville plant of the American Sheet Steel company have many of the towns largest merchants back of them in their fight against the workmen, and much bitterness has re- suited. Confronted with what seems a certainty that if the present trouble goes along much further the Wellsville plant will be lifted and brought across the line into Pennsylvania, grocers, clothing men and others, who for years have received the wages of the mill workers in ex- change for goods, are now trying to show the strikers that they are wrong and foolish in keeping up the fight. Pressure brought to bear along this line, the strikers say, is energy wasted, as they are more determined than before.

Manchuria Should Be Re- stored, Says Chinese Court.
ENyOYS GET IMPERIAL TELEGRAM.
4 Scheme Which the Chinese Cow ernment May Not Have Courage to Carry Out--The French Ex-
 tending Luhan Railway.

PEKING, July 20.-The Chinese peace envoys have received the following im- perial telegram
 Russia and China have for many years been on friendly terms. Now that the peace negotiations have been finished it is natural that these friendly relations should be resumed The plenipotentiaries are therefore commanded to inform the Russian foreign office that they should restore all of Manchuria."
 The Chinese authorities recently stated that they contemplated utilizing the serv- ice of the Japanese police commissioner to direct the administration. M. de Giers, the Russian minister, thereupon wrote to Prince Ching asking what this meant.
 Prince Ching has made no reply as yet, and it is thought probable that the Chi nese will be afraid to carry out the scheme.
 The Chinese also contemplated the em- ployment at large salary of German officer who understood the language of the country for the purpose of bringing the Chinese soldiers up to the standard of foreign troops. The officer guaran- teed to do this, but before the contract was signed opposition arose, and the plan was abandoned.
 The French are extending the Luhan railway. Sheng, the director of rail- ways and telegraphs, has telegraphed here to hasten the completion of the rail- way to Cheng-ting-fu. He wants the railway completed within a month and also asks that preparations be made for the return of the court to Picking. The emperor, dowager empress and other members of the court are expected to come by train to the station within the southern city. Thence there will be a procession through the central gate into

H HARD GAME TO LOSE.
Tied Score in the Eight but Lost
 on An Error in Ninth.

Bridgeport Pulled Out Close Game at
 Athletic Field Yesterday-The Wa
 terbury Team Will Play the Wash
 ington Hills Tomorrow at Driving
 Park.
 After tying the score in their half of the eighth, the locals lost the game in the ninth to Bridgeport, by loose playing. At the end of the first half of the eighth, the score was to i'll favor of Orator Jim's hustling aggregation of ball players. Luskey the first man up in Waterbury's half of the eighth flew out to center. Courtney whacked out a beautiful single. Matthews was the next man up. He had fire in his eyes. The crowd cheered him and urg- ed him to give it ride over the fence. Matthews waited for nice one and he struck it right on the spot. Sailing, it went to the track in right field. When it was returned. Mccormick, Murphy and Matthews had scored. It was a wild scene that followed. Shouts and yells, cIapping of hands and stamping of feet reigned supreme. About a hum dred kids surrounded Matthews and treated him as a hero. Matthews was one of the stars of yesterdays game. He had three hits, a home run and two singles, one of which Corcoran let go by and Matthews reached third on it. He scored two run and drove in three or four. Waller was on the slab for Waterbury and his pitching was rather cratic. At times he was hit rather freely while again he was in- vincible. In the eighth inning with a man on third base, he struck out Cor coran, Dougherty and Yale in success sion while in, the sixth with two men on bases, he struck out Corcoran and DoUgherty and had two strikes on Yale but the latter surprised himself as well as the spectators by banging out q double and scoring two runs. Watef- bury lost the game in the ninth. Re gan, the first man up, flew out to cen ter. Rogers received a base on balls, went to third on wild pitch and stole home owing to Walters failure to cover the home plate on the passed ball. Wa terbury went out ill one, two, three or der i'll their half. The game was one of the most interesting and exciting of the season and it created considerable enthusiasm among the spectators who were about 600 in number. Yesterday was ladies' day and many of the fair sex turned out and saw the game.

 Captain Fitzpatrick is playing star game. He had two hits to his credit and was robbed of a third by the fastest of fielding on the part of Phil Corcoran, who was in the right garden for the visitors. Phil is said to have a knack of fielding his position in such a manner that ordinary base hits are fielded i'll time for a put out.
 The Waterbury state league team will play the Washington Hill Athletic club team tomorrow afternoon at the Dfiy- ing park at 3 o'clock. 1t will be m interesting game to see for the reason that Con Cassidy will do the twirling, and the amateurs say they will knock the tar out of him., while Con only smiles and says that there will be things doing with some of those hit ters after he gets putting them over.

Ed Crane was the New York pitcher at that time, and, with Murphy catching, struck out twentTthree men.
 There was feature connected with the four base hits Billy Lush made in the closing game of the Rochester ser ies, which escaped the notice of the grandstand Lush related it to his brother players at the hotel after the game. Each of the four hits Lush made was after three balls and two strikes had been called upon him. Griffin simply put the ball over on the deciding time, and all I had to do was to crach it out" said Lush-Worcester Telegram.
 Cronin played his first game with the home team yesterday and made a creditable showing. He had eleven chances and accepted ten. His error was a huff of an easy foul fly and was due no doubt to nervousness and over confidence. At the bat, he did not show so we'll but it was his first game and the chances are that he will get on his batting clothes right away. He made a beautiful throw to third in the early part of the game catching one of the visitors trying to steal third and thus completed a double play. Dan received the glad hand from the rooters.

 That was rapid transit negotiation between Canayan and Connor yester- day.

American s,vlndIer Caught In Berlin

BERLIN, July 20.-The Berlin police have received photographs from New York, forwarded by the police of that city, showing that Frank Davidson, who is held here for swindling, is identical with George Downing, alias Dunn. He was arrested here early in June. He had tried to palm himself off as son of one of the best known racing men in the United States. He purchased jewelry worth 10000 marks, making small pay ment, and also persuaded hotel keeper to advance to him the sum of 15, TOO marks on pretended winnings in racing bets. When taken into custody, he was in the act of buying . ticket for Paris. His identity with Downing was forthwith practically established through the Ber-i tillon measurements.
