At the polling for a member of Parlia- ment in Wexford borough, to fill the vacancy caused by Healy's resignation, considerable animosity was shown towards the Liberal candidate, O'Connor Don, and he was hooted at as he drove through the streets, Mr. Sexton, M. P. for Sligo, who was present in the interests of Redmond, Parnellite candidate, implored the people to preserve order, but, notwithstanding his interference, windows of the O’Connor Don committee rooms were smashed. Many policemen arrived in town during the after- noon to assist in maintaining order. The election resulted in.awictory for Redmond with 307 votes against 26 for the O'Connor Don. After the result of the polling had been declared O'Connor Don drove along the main street under escort. The party were pelted by the mob, and the police charged the crowd with bayonets. Several persons were wounded, one being pierced through the lung; 30 policemen were in- jured, 12 seriously. Some of the police- men were isolated, knocked down and trampled upov. Healy and Sexton finally undertook to restore order and the police were withdrawn. In a speech in the evening, Healy said the police had behaved

suvayely.

INVINCIBLE HANLAN.

He Defeats Ross Easily.

Toronto, July 19.

More thaa fifty thousand people assembled yesterday at Ogdensburg, N. Y., to witness the great race for the woili’s championship, between Hanlan and Ross The most in- tense excitement prevailed, and, during the day there was much speculation as to which would be the successful man. The general feeling, however, was that Hanlan would again be victorious, though Ross had many backers. At the word

GeO,

the two men started off together, Hanlan almost immediately shooting to the front, For a short time the race as was expected was close, both men determined

TO DO THEIR UTMOST.

Hanlan gradually forged ahead, and suc- ceeded in winning easily by more than a quarter of a mile. It is said that Ross was not feeling so well as usual during the day. Hanlan was confident of winning. A great deal of money changed hands.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

Ocpenseura, July 18.

The result of to-day’s race will leave no doubt in any one’s mind that Hanlan pos- sesses an indisputable right to the title of the world’s aquatic champion—a title which has been in dispute for some time, as many thought the stout New Brunswicker would beat over a good course.

AN IMMENSE CROWD GATHERED

to witness the race, probably more persons than ever gathered on any other such occa- sion. Courtney being Ross’ choice as a feree, there was a good deal of quarrel. g during the early ‘part of the day, as anlan had some suspicion that Courtney would secure Ross some unfair advantage. The difficulty was bridged over at last by Hanlan doing as he ought to have done at first ACCEPT THE SITUATION,

The early part of the day was dark,and a strong breeze blew straight up the course, making the water too lumpy for shells. As time wore on the water improved, and at 3 o'clock the referee’s boat left the wharf and steamed over the course. The men were anxious to get to work, both being in splendid condition. About six o'clock the referee weut over the course a second time in his own boat, and on his return notified the scullers to come to the start. Both men

APPEARED ON THE COURSE soon after being signalled for. Ross wen the toss for position taking the outside. Hanlan wore his colors, a red cap and blue shirt, and Ross was in white. The dispar- ity in the size of the men was very notice-

able. It was just 6.59 when the word roe” was given. The water was in fair condi-

tion. Both men caught the water together and rowed along, almost even, to the quar- ter, Hanlan’s bow tip being a few feet ahead. Hanlan made the first half in 3 minutes and 15 seconds, and was evidently slowly going to the fore. The stroke was 32 for Hanlan and 28 for Ross. The mile was made by Hanlan in 7 minutes and 7 seconds. The mile-and-a-half in 10 minutes, 58 seconds. About here HANLAN STOPPED

for a second and then pushed along swiftly to the turn, increasing his lead at every stroke. Both rowed about 28 up to the turn. Hanlan took seven seconds to make the turn. Rgss taking 24, and turning awkwardly. The return trip was a mere procession. When Ross finally straight- ened out, Hanlan was very nearly an

EIGHTH OF A MILE AHEAD

and he called out to the Referees’ boat to come nearer, a3 he was lonesome. He finished nearly a quarter of a mile ahead, having stopped at two and a half miles and taken a drink of water. The record is put down at 28 min. Some saying it was only 27 min. and 2 sec,

The report was telegraphed all over the country, an hour after the race, asking who won, asthe first report sent out had stated Ross had won; the cause of this being that signals were wrongly given from the water. As Hanlan dzew up to the referees boat and heard the official an- nouncement, he said: ‘* Send out that

BIG FOOL COURTNEY

till I make an exhibition of him,” He then rowed over to Ross and shook hands with him. Pools averaged four to one on Han- lan. The St. John press speak thus: There seemed to be little doubt in the public mind that Hanlan was the best man in the world, but Ross had many friends, and yes- terday when Hanlan declared he would not row with Courtney as one judge, people thought it was an excuse to avoid meeting his rival. As evening drew on the crowd around the telegraph office became very large and abeut 8 o'clock the report came that Ross had won, having ROWED THE CHAMPION DOWN

in four lengths, in the unprecedented time of twenty-six minutes. The scene on the streets, where there were gathered thousands of people,

BAFFLES DESCRIPTION.

The mass cheered to the echo, and frantic excitement prevailed. In the midst of this excitement a new

message came telling how a mistake had been made by a reporter from the shore, and it was scarcely credited for some time. Many and loud were the complaints against the Western Union officials for sending out the false report.

Caire Infceted.

Catko, July 19. Yesterday there were sixty deaths from cholera here, and the plague is hourly in- creasing. The cordons placed around the infected districts have been abandoned as useless.

Want of Confidence.

Lonvon, July 19. Lord Hartington has given notice that it is his intention to propose a vote of want of confidence in the Gladstone Administra- tion, whether the Suez Canal agreement be withdrawn or not.

Teiegraph Notes.

At the Great Yarmouth meeting to-day, in the race for all ages the Maiden plate was won by Keene’s colt, Potosi.

The London Standard says the opinion of Liberals concerning the canal agreement

more hopeful.

The London Post says that M. Tissot, the French ambassador now on furlough, will not return to London, and that his succes- sor has been appointed.

The British ship Westminster, from Que- bec for Liverpool, was abandoned water- logged in lat. 48 north, lat. 6 west. The crew arrived at Liverpool.

The London Daily News says the Con- servatives state that Stafford Northcote will propose a vote of want of confidence in the ministry even if the canal agreement is withdrawn.

A strict enforcement of quarantine re- gulation has been ordered at San Francisco against all vessels which have cleared from or touched at ports infected with cholera, small-pox or yellow fever.

In an interview again, yesterday, De. Lesseps said negotiations with British Government in regard to the canal had not been dropped, but had been simply left as they were when his son left London.

In the shooting of the St. Leger prize at Wimbledon, yesterday, five contestants, in- cluding Hinman, of the American team, and Young and Gibbs of the English team, scored 48 points out of a possible 50.

A cyclone blast, on the 17th inst., de- molished Loftin & Evans’ large pork pack- ing establishment at Noblesville, Ind., and carried away the cupola of the Presbyterian Church and unroofed several business buildings.

The Nutional Zeitung approves of the protest of the English people against the Suez canal agreement, and proposes that all the maritime powers buy the canal a:d place it under the control of an internation- al commissioner.

A meeting of the Panama Carnal Com- pany was held at Paris on the 17th inst. The report of DeLesseps was read. He repeated his former siatement that the canal would be finished at the end of 1888. The report also stated that the chief gov- ernment engineer would assume the direc- tion of active work on the canal which would shortly be undertaken, Referring to the Suez Canal project DeLesseps said : We have negotiated loyally, without the relinquishing of any of our rights.

In the House of Lords on the 17th, Lord Granville, Foreign Secretary, stated that ou the grounds of expediency he justified the agreement made by the Government with M. DeLesseps, whose absolute mon- opoly of the power to construct the canal across the Isthmus was not admitted in the negotiations. Lord Salisbury was surprised to hear that the concesssion of DeLesseps gave him power to bar the passage between the two seas. He argued that neither the Sultan nor Khedive was competent to make such a grant.

Twelve deaths occurred at Cairo, Wednes- day, and forty-two at Menzaleh. The sanitary commissioner has rejected the pro- posal to isolate Alexandria. Special des- patches from Cairo state that there were ten deaths from cholera on Monday. The cordons around the infected district have all beeh abandoned. Several cases of cholera have developed at Palma, Majorca. Many families are fleeing thence to the mainland of Spain. The Government has introduced a bill in the Cortes for a credit of $1,000,- 000 pesetas to defray the cost of the adoption of all possible measures against the introduction of cholera into Spain.

At Wimbledon on the 17th inst., the American team, completed the contest for the cup and £50 presented specially for their competition. They fired at 200, 500 and 600 yards. The highest scores were made by Joiner and Hinman, who tied for the prize, In the contest for the Queen’s prize, Sergeant McKay, of the First Suther- land Regiment, was victor. Three targets have been assigned to the American team for the International match, and three to the British team. The names of the twelve men who will compose the Ainerican team will be announced on Friday morning, when the match will begin. Although Joiner and Hinman tied in shooting for the cup, Joiner made the best score in Thursday’s shooting, aud consequently won the prize. In the contest for the national challenge trophy, yesterday, the score made by Wattleworth, of the English team was 95, not 105 as reported. In shooting off the ties Hinman of the Ameri- can team, made the highest score and was awarded the prize.
