NEW YOK, September 21st. Under howning bluffs on the Hariem river, and almost in the shadow of the historical Jumel mansion, once. George Washington's milltary headquarters, the very flower of Great Britain's amateur athletes went down before the cream of American brawn and muscle. It was a defeat so complete in every way and so crush- ing as to amare the athletic world and make the Billah visitors stand aghast with motification and wonder.
The 15,000 spectators who gathered within the inclosure, thronging the stands and filling the bleachers as well as every point of vantage, were kept lo a contious) ferment of excitment, which was only relieved at times by wild out
bursts of enthusiasm.
Out of the eleven events on the programme the Englishmen did not succeed in winning one, and as a result of their long trip across the ocean they will carry home but five silver medala, given second men. Those were the only prizes ibey won, the Americans sweeping the balance of the card.
The occasion weld the athletic meeting arranged almost a year ago between the New York and London athletic clubs, the leading amatens organizations of the world. The feeling became sa sirong on both sides after its arange ment that the affair quickly turned into the International all America, all England contest, the Londoners taking the initiative, in making it such by cearching Ireland and Scotland as well as England for sustable material to send over. The New Yorkers took the same action and gathered all the American amateur champions In its team.

It would be preposterous to attempt to explain away such a defeat. Even if ajl our best men had been present and in the finest condition they would have stood little chance against wukt express m profunt regrets and chagrin that a friendly been culpably neglectful of their duties darter opponents who showed, such orquestionable superiority, The Americans probably have the Finest team of athletes that the world has cYCT een. Any trae sportsman will not begru’ge them the unqualified praise to which they are Justly entitled.
The Daily Newer says :—It in a comfort to feel that one bas been beaten fairly. The victory of the New York club was na chance victory. The more we have of these contests the better. Who knows that Bunker Hill may not be wiped out by this high jump.
