REPORTS ,
. Of various Commercial
Agencies indicate the return
of - real ". prosperity—steady
employment, regular wages
and increased supply of arti-
cles which have been consid-
ered in the light Of luxuries
during the business depres-
sion. Mills throughout the
country are resuming their
old' time activity, which
betokens a happy future.
1'0n the other hand, increas-
ing demands will cause an
advance inl prices—the mer-
cantile barometer already has
felt the rivival touch.
Worsted has increased in
price, and in accordance with
natural laws all manufactured
articles must follow the course
of the raw materials.
Carpets were never before
so; low in price. It is un-
natural, however, for them to
remain below the cost of pro-
duction, and now that they
will doubtless feel the quick-
ening pulse "Of prosperity

FULL TEXT OF THE MESSAGE
The Date Set Is a Trifle Late, but Outside
of That There Is Not Likely to Be
Any Serious Hitch Concern-
ing the Arrangements.
LONDON, July 3,—The reply of the ath-
letes of Yale to the challengeof Oxford
. and Cambridge has been communicated to
the latter and is praised by the athletes of
the two universities 'as a sportsmanlike
document.
Neither university, however, will make
any reply or statement on the subject un-
til the Oxford and Cambridge committees
confer. -
The Oxford and Cambridge teams are
training for their interuniversity sports
at about 50 milcsfrom London. A repre-
sentative of the press went to the training
grounds with Yale’s reply, which was
read with intense interest. It was as fol-
lows:
NEW YORK, July 1.
W. J. Oakley, President of the Oxford Uni-
versity Athletic Club; E. S. Horan,
President of the Cambridge University
Athletic Club:
DEAR SIRS—We very much regret that
Harvard, for reasons which are satisfacto-
ry to that university, fools unwilling to
join us in accepting the joint challenge of
Oxford and Cambridge to Harvard and
Yale for a match in track athletics in the
United States this autumn.
The action of Yale in response to your
' challenge is as follows:
We accept the challenge upon the condi-
tion that the three mile run (a race which
is unknown to our universities) be drop-
ped from the list of events as proposed in
your letter; that the English team and
the Yale team be each represented by two
competitors in each event, and that the
teams be composed of men who shall have
been eligible to compete, the Englishmen.
in the Oxford-Cambridge match of this
year, and the Yale men in the Harvard-
Yale match of this year.
We suggest Saturday, Oct. 5, for the
date of the match, and New York City for
the place. If, because of Harvard’s un-
willingness to join Yale this year in such
a. match as the one proposed by your uni-
versities, Oxford and Cambridge deem it
unwise to jointly meet Yale unassisted by
Harvard, Yale hereby challenges the win-
ner of this year’s Oxford- Cambridge match
to a contest to take place in New York
city at the time and under the conditions
named above. L. P. SHELDON,
Captain Yale Athletic Association.
0. H. SHERRILL, Jr.,
Chairman Graduate Advisory Committee
on Track Athletics.
English Athletes Surprised.
The action of Yale was a great surprise
to the English a; letes, as they all thought
that Harvard’s refusal ended the matter,
and it required some minutes for Mr. E.
S. Horan, the Cambridge president, to re-
cover sufiiciently to express any opinion.
After reading the cable dispatch, Mr. Ho-
ran said:
“This is so unexpected that I do not
know what to say. The matter must be
discussed among our fellows before I can
venture to say what they will do. We
must also consult with the Oxford men.
Parts of Yale’s reply are a little ambigu-
ous to me. For instance, they wish to
except the three mile run. If that was
agreed, Yale would be expected to substi-
tute something else.
“I cannot understand Yale challenging
both Oxford and Cambridge and think
Yale should have been satisfied with chal-
lenging the winner of our games here.
The challenge certainly shows that the
Yale men are true sportsmen.”
Mr. W. J. Oakley, president of the OX-
ford Athletic club, took the cable message,
and all the Oxford athletes gathered
around him and ‘manifested the greatest
interest. Mr. Oakley said:
“Oxford men accept. The date deter-
mined upon is tOO late. The college au-
thorities would not permit us to be absent
in October, as we must be at Oxford on
Oct. 9. But any day during the latter
part of September would do.
“I don’t understand Yale challenging
both Oxford and Cambridge. She certain-
1y can’t mean to take us both on. It is
a pity that the challenge came so late. I
will consult with our peOple as soon as
pessible and confer with Mr. Horan. It
is likely, however, that whichever is the
winner of our intercollegiate games will
accept Yale’s challenge, provided an earlier
date can be arranged.”
To Investigate “Divine Healers.”
CHICAGO, July 3.—Dr. Alexander Dow-
ie’s so called “divine healing” institution
in this city will undergo another investi-
gation at the hands of the coroner. Frank
I. Bennett, who lives near the institution,
saw a body brought from the house and
put in a wagon. He followed on a bicycle
and then notified the police. They ascer-
tained that the body was that of Mrs.
Magdalene Burke of Berlin, Canada.
Captain Howgate Gets Eight Years.
WASHINGTON, July 3.-—-Captain Henry
W. Howgate, the former disbursing Officer
of the signal service, was sentenced today
to eight years’ imprisonment in the peni-
tentiary. He was convicted {last week on
two counts alleging forgery and falsifica-
tion of accounts in 1879 after the first in-
dictments found against him had been
quashed. '
85,000 For McKenzle’s Cholera Boat.
ALBANY, July 3.—The state board of
claims has awarded $5, 000 to Augustus
McKenzie for tree of his boat during the
cholera scare in 1892. His boat was hired
by Dr. Jenkins for use in removing bodies
of cholera victims from vessels to Swin-
burne islanda
Paris’ Big Fire COM; $1,400,000.
PARIS, July ar—The fire in the famous
Godillot’s military outfitting establish-
ment here ‘caused damage to the extent 01
7,000,000 francs. . .
Americans Cheer Cornell.
LONDON, July 3.—.The wind blew quite
a gale down the Henley course, but the
crews Were all out. When the Cornells
came out in their boat, they were greeted
with . the Cornell cry by a number of
Americans on the riVer bank. They rowed
over the, entire course at the rate of 40
strokes to the minute, but_ did not try to:
make a racing; pace»;

Wells of Mount Holly, baggage master on
the Amboy division !of the Pennsylvania
railroad, was killed ’in the railroad yards

His body was cut to fpieces.
China’s Big Loan.
LONDON, July 3.—A Chinese loan is

the negotiations for a Chinese loan made
from St. Petersburg and elsewhere.
