London, July 22 2-Great interest Is manifested in London in the field and track sports which will take place to- morrow afternoon at the Queens Club between teams sent by Harvard and Yale universities representing the United States and teams from the uni- versailles of Oxford and Cambridge, representing England.
 Both teams have been training hard for the event. The oxford and Cam bridge men at first worked separately at Oxford and Royston respectively; later joining their forces at Eastbourne and then coming to the grounds of the Queens Club in order to become famil- far with the characteristics of the field.
 The Americans have been training at Brighton since their arrival. coming only once to London for practice at the Queens Club. The American athletes are confident they will win six of the nine events. while the Englishmen be- lieve that the odd event will determine the victor. as they expect to win four The two miles. the mile. and the half mile. the Englishmen regard as sure Churchill of Cambridge, Gregson of Cambridge and Cornwallis of Oxford, are stated by them as the winners.
 The English experts expect w. A. Schick, Jr., of Harvard to win the 100- yard, F.. J. Clapp of Yale. the high hurdles and G. F. Vieter of Yale the high jump, and they say they would not be. surprised to see them break the records.
 The American and English teams arr rived in London this afternoon George F. Parks, manager of the Yale team. said to the Associated Press:
 Bot hthe Harvard and Yale men are in excellent condition and we are con- fldent of victory tomorrow. While we regret the departure of F. M. Murphy, Harvard's high jumper fwho has brok- en down and will not compete), we de- pend on G. F. Victor cS win the high jump. We are entirely satisfied with the grounds and with the arrange ments that have been made"
 Many high British officers have &C., cepted invitations and Ambassador Choate and all the attaches of the em- bassy will be present. After the games a banquet will be given. which will be presided over by Lord Chief Justice Alverstone.
 It Is the intention of the English promoters of the meeting to make it an International rather than a merely athletic event. in the hope of thereby fostering the friendly rivalry of the two countries.

THE TENSION RELIEVED.
Russia Desires to Make Amende Hon.
 Orable for Malacca Seizure.

Russia Desires to Make Amende Hon.
 Orable for Malacca Seizure.
 Paris. July 22.-It was said at the Foreign Office at noon that the ex- change of views going on between that the tension of the Anglo Russian n situation has been materially relieved.
 It now appears that Russia has sub mitted to the British government q certain proposition, which. If accept able. will serve as the basis for an ad- justment. These changes have been somewhat informal and are being de- scribed as hints, but they are sufficient ly clear to show Russia's willingness to arbltrate the question. The out come is hinging on Great Britain's am swer.
 It is understood that Russia contem- plates the release of the Malacca but the officials say the previous reports that orders had actually been issued for her releage are incorrect. It Is further asserted that the prospective adjustment will be confined to the seizure of the Malacca and will not in- clude the general question of the right of Russia under the treaty of Paris to send vessels of the volunteer fleet through the Dardanelles.
 It is considered inopportune to dis cuss a readjustment of the rights of the powers under the treaty of Paris during time of war and therefore if the question of a readjustment is raised 1t probably will go over until the close of the Japanese Russian war.

FATHER GREELEY WILL DIE OF
 HIS INJURIES.
Beloved Chaplain of First Brigade "A N. G., Who Was Thrown From His Horse at Camp
 JeIks.

Birmingham, July 22.-tSpeciaL)--At 6 o'clock tonight it was announced that there was no hope for Father O'Reflly, who was thrown from his horse yesterday at Camp Jelks. His rulse is strong. but he is unconscious and hemmorhage of blood vessel in the head had occurred. His death Is likely to occur at any time.
 The announcement made early this morning that Rev. Father P.

 Late last night the priest regained consciousness for a little while, and spoke to a few friends by his bedside. He said but little before he lost con- sciousness again. This morning it was decided to summon all relatives, and telegrams were sent to the Bishop in Mobile, to brother of the injured man in Taunton, Mass, and to others. The physicians attending the priest decid- ed that trepanning was absolutely nec- essary, and at ? o'clock the operation was begun.
 Father O'Reilly landed on his head and shoulders in his fall. It seems that he had wild horse and the animal ran away, stopping suddenly in front of the brigade headquarters. Father O'Reilly went over the horses head. When picked up he was unconscious.
 Rev. Father CiReilly is 5S years of age. He came to Birmingham over fif- teen years ago. and worked hard for his church. His charitable work gain ed him many friends among all classes and creeds in Birmingham and the dis trict Through his personal efforts St. Vincent's hospital and the East Lake Orphanage were established here.

WHEN CONSTIPATED
MozIeT's Lemon Elixir Will Give Re-
 lief Promptly and Pleasantly.

When the liver and bowels do not act regularly. the entire system soon gets out of order. Neglect or improper treatment results in an accumulation of impurities which clog up the system and often result in serious sickness If the bowels and liver are kept healthy and regular it will be impossible for typhoid and other dangerous summer diseases to get a foothold.
 The most satisfactory remedy for biIiousness, constipation. collie, indigcs- ton, sour stomach dizziness, sick headache. etc, is Mozley's Lemon Elixir, the ideal laxative. It acts thor oughly but gently. and takes the place of calomel and pills. which aIS, so nau- seating to most people. and are injuri- ous to all. Mozley's Lemon Elixir Is made of lemons and it's value as a lax ative is recognized by the medical pro fession everywhere. soc a bottle at drug storeS tu-thu-sat
