(Received k>3o a.m.)
BRUSSELS, May 24.
A telegram from Antwerp states that the new Olympic Stadium has been opened. It seats 27,500, and is an improved pattern on the Stockholm Stadium, being perfect to the smallest detail, including a magnificent cinder' track 433 i yards long. The preliminary gymnastic festivals before the commencement of the games include one in honour of the British Empire on July 11.—(A. and N.Z. Cable.)
