Yesterday was the final day of New : York's Grand Circuit meeting, and it was fittingly marked by the marvellous per- | formance of the four-year-old colt Direc- tum, who, inspite: of every disadvantage, {succeeded in capturing the all-aged stal champion record of the world, What 'the sturdy little -black could have accom- plished had 'he been saved for this su- 'preme effort. can only be conjectured, but. if is not open to reasonable doubt that but {for his two punishing races last week - when he trotted eight phenomenally fast Iniles-averaging close to 2:10-he would rot only have lowered the two. former records, but have come dangerously close | to Nancy Hanks' 24. As it is, Directum has beaten the record of every horse that ever trotted, bar Nancy Hanks, and the circumstances under which it was done make it certain that if he stands the strain he will be in the front rank before the 'present. season is over. | \ j Kelly gave Directum a warming up' mile at a good stiff clip, and. then about :| 4:30 o'clock took the word and sent him :along to do his best. Nearly eyery horse- Iman on the grounds blames Kelly for the | manner in which he rated his horse. Itis\ 'an axiom in driving such a mile as this, that the first part of the mile shall be within the limit of the horse's capacity so - as to leave some reserve of strength and speed to.come, home with. When, there- I fore, Kelly let Direccum have his head in 'thefirst quarter and passed the post in 80;-seconds, a 2:01 gait, there were excla- mations of dismay. \He can never keep up that clip,\ was the cry; but the clip: was slightly accelerated to the half, which was covered in 1:00;, the fastest time ev- er made in a half mile by any trotter.- the hill in the third quarter handicapped the gallant little stallion two seconds, but even then, had Kelly driven him so as to save his colt, the last quarter, trotted any- thing under 0:32, would have beaten the world's record: but it was not to be.- Directum's strength was well nigh spent, though he struggled gamely to the end, tiring visibly down theistretch, and as he passed under the wire in 2:07 he was fair ly staggering. ~* MR. GLADSTONE'S PERSONAL TRIUMPH, London, Sept. 2.-The personal énthu- siasm of Mr. Gladstone has carried Home Rule through the House of Commons.- This great triumph is, however, gravely discounted when it is remembered that his success has been achieved by the Irish vote alone, and that but for the applica- tion of the gag a powerful minority, backed by a majority of the voters of Great Britain, would have worried the New York, Tuesday, Septemper Still—v - From there home came the crucial test; | LIEDTENANT PEARY IN: GREENLAND, St.; John's, N.

'The Falcon left hereon July 15, bound for Labrador to purchase thedogs: necessary for the expedition, , Altogether 'the party goteighty-seven dogs. At'Cape 'York, Peary got five native Esquimaux to assist in caring for the dogs and to: do- general work. | The Falcon arrived at her destination on August 3. The voyage 'was fairly pleasant, as little ice and no 'bergs were encountered. She made the' passage across Melville Bay in twenty- four hourg:and fifty minutes, This is the | quickest trip ever made across the bay by : eleven hours. Peary proposes to occupy the time till winter in exploring the adjacent country, . and immediately upon tht opening of spring will start on his great overland journey across Greenland to the northern |, point reached by him last year on Inde-. pendence Bay, and thence will proceed | «as far north it is possible to get, even to the Pole itself, though this part of the plan is likely to be abandoned, as hé has decided $o return next summer, and not to remain until 1895, as was his original intention. It has bten definately settled that the Falcon will return for him next year. A CHOLERA INCREASES ABROAD. Washington, Sept. 5.-Reports received . by the Marine Hospital Service indicate; that much cholera exists in Europe and that the disease is spreading. In many cases authentic information cannot be had, owing to the action of the local govern-: ments in suppressing the news. The on- ly thing upon which the Marine Hospital: Service here looks with any degree of ap- prehension is the constant influx to this. country of undesirableimmigrants, againat whom it appears to be almost impossible: to guard. The new law, however, has: improved the conditions. of last year, and quarantine is vastly more effective than it was last year, and the foreign inspection by United States agents has so far been successful. | however, by any means. Cholera was not officially declared to prevail in Ham: So far as the season is concerned, there is still ample time for a visitation of the pest from abroad, but it is believed that should it come the disease can be stamped out year.
