Criticise the Visitors for Not Return- ing for a Fresh Start—Inter- Collegiate Athletics. LONDON, July 10.—The Graphic says about yesterday’s regatta: “Fortunately the contretemps did not harm our Ameri- can visitors, though from the way a few hyper-enthustasts spoke in the heat of their excitement they appeared to think that the umpire had defrauded them of the fruits of victory, quite overlooking the fact that the hard luck was all Lean- der’s. The Eton boys will doubtless he pleased thus to be able to gratify their ambition to row against the Americans.” The Chronicle says: “It is hardly too much to say that the whole rowing world of England will be deeply agitated over the unfortunate contretemps. It is sufficient- ly clear that the misunderstanding was due to the wind carrying the voice of Leander’s stroke away from the umpire. While Leander was fully justified in pro- testing, no shadow of blame rests upon the umpire. We desire to say nothing that may seem in the slightest degree harsh or unchivalrous to our youthful visitors, but we say without hesitation that had the mistake occurred with two English amateur crews the crew that got off would certainly have returned to the starting point. That the Cornell stroke did not ease up is, we are sure, due to an Insufficient knowledge of our custom in such cases. We are glad that Wheeler advised the Cornell crew to row the heat again. But they preferred to stand upon their technical right. We can only regret also that nothing ts likely to come of Umpire Willan’s generous offer of a prize of £100 for a race between the two crews. ‘The Sportsman says on the same subjevt: “It was due to a very grave mistake on the part of Umpire Willan, who falled to catch Leander’s shout of io" Tt is ‘housand pities that @ornell failed to allow themselves to be influenced by the voices of those sportsmen 0 would have liked to see thera act a little more generously in Leander again.” | The Daily Telegraph's comment is: “It Was magnificent to see the trarsatlantic gentlemen, with their peculiar jerky style, coming up the river alone; but assuredly it was not war. It is unlikely that_any- thing will come of Umpire Willen’s offer of a cup to row again, as the Americans are irclined to claim their exect right. If they had any other Intention, they would have stopped when they found themselves alone and havo returned to give their opponents a fresh chance. If they choose to stand on the umpire’s verdict, nothing more can be said. The fiasco cast a gloom over the afterroon and nothing else was talked of.” The Sporting Life says: “Far and away the best race of the day was that of the London Rowing Club and the Argonauts ef Toronto. Time and again it looked a: if the Canadians were hopelessly don but the manner in which they held on sug- geeted the tenacity of a terrier and a rat. The final burst of speed was worth travel- ing a hundred miles to see. This mag- nificent struggle was an excellent make- weight for the Leander-Cornell fizzle. “Had ft not been for F. H. Thompson’s mishap there is no telling how his race with Hon. Rupert Guinness, in the dlamoni sculls, would have ended. The mauner in which he went after Guinness was a cau- tion, and his pluck gained many rounds of applause.” Feeling Against Americans. HENLEY, England, July 10.—The anti- American feeling caused by Cornell gotng over the course yesterday when Leander failed to get away at the word “go” con- tinued today, and offensive remarks are to be heard on all sides. “They are just like the Australians,” said one person in the crowded breakf: of the Red Lion Hotel this morning don’t care how they win.” The Leanders continued to fan the flame of discontent. They were to be heard in all parts denouncing, not the umpire or the de- cision of the committee of stewards which e the race to Cornell yesterday, but they denounced Cornell in spite of the fact that the American crew simply obeyed the instructions of the umpire to row over the course. The Leanders made no overtures to Cor- nell yesterday to race again, but they be- gan an immediate torrent of abuse. An- drew S. White, who has besn identified with the Cornell crew ever since the latter ar- rived at Henley, is perfectly well known to ga * style—comfort—cootncss and durabillty— they haven't an equal in the world.

In the lobby were a group of Leanders, excitedly talking over the un- fortunate misunderstanding of yesterday. Begg, the Leander coxswain, glanced at Mr. White, and then said, evidently for his benefit: “‘D—n the Americans, anyway. It is just what we might have expected.” ‘The crew of the Cornell were naturally very indignant at the manner in which the Leander crew had been speaking against them, and they remarked: “It now rests with us to win today and show the British- ers that we do not depend on the bungles of any crew to win.” Cornell to Try Again.

Charlie Barr and anchored near the Defend She is fresh from her tuning up in New Jersey waters and her crew are anxious for a brush with her new rival. They say she is very fast this year, and believe she will give the Defender a hard pull in the trial races. Her olficers think she is several minutes faster than last season, and if the Defender can beat her they feel confident that the cup is surely safe. At Bristol she will take on board her new suit of sails, just com- pieted, and will remain at least a week. Although men in large numbers have hard at work on the Defender since indy, there still remains a large amount of fitting to be done. This, it is hoped, can be finished so that she will be able to meet the Vigitant Saturday. The latest in- formation obtained leads to the belief that the Defender’s main sail_ measures about 6 square feet, nearly 709 square feet more than the Vigitlant’s, but some- What smaller than that spread by the British challenger for the cup.

Athletic Contest With Cambridge to Occur October 5. NEW YORK,Ju!y10.—The conditions made ‘y Cambridge upon which they would ac- cept Yale’s counter chalienge for a meeting in New York are in the main satisfactory to Yale. Capt. Sheldon of the Yale track athletic team expressed his approval today of the action taken last night by the Yale graduate advisory committee, which was not given out for publication until this morning. After consultation the following cable- gram was sent to the representatives of Cambridge: “The conditions made by Cam- bridge are satisfactory to Yale. Cambridge to sail by the Cunarder after August 27; the games are to take place October 5. We would suggest that the 22-yard run be substituted for the 300-yard run, as our straightaway tracks are only 220 yards long. Yale will arramge for a house in New Haven and will put the Yale track at the disposal of Cambridge if the latter wishes.” The men selected to train for the coming events will gather at Travers Island by September 1, as follows: One-hundred-yard dash—Richards, '95; Byers, '98; Burnett, ‘97.

The feature of the racing at the Alex- ander Island track yesterday was the vic- tory of Ataman over Eclipse in the last race, at a mile and a sixteenth. Ecifpse was a 4 to 5 favorite, Ataman’s price being 2 to 1, but the latter never left the issue in doubt, leading all the way, and beating Eclipse by two lengths in the fast time of 1.48%. Four favorites and two second choices won, and Meadows, the favorite in the fifth, would probably have won but for the fact that the breaking down of Free Press interfered with the favorite.

One Will Be Planted at the Indian Head Grounds. Negetiations are pending between the Navy Department and the Cramps rela- tive to making a practical test of the tur- ret now used on modern warships. The point of the tests is to determine the value and resistance of armor plates and the effect a shot will have upon the mechanism of the turret. The turret will be a regular 13-inch gun turret. The tests will begin with a 10-inch gun and work upward until the 13-inch gun, the largest in use in this country, is reached. One of the turrets has just been put on the battleship Indiana, and is now bein; inted. It 1s a magnificent specimen. of ‘he modern turret, and its thickness is 15 inches. Lieut. "Ackerman has just returned to Washington from Philadelphia, where he has arranged to have the Cramps build this turret, which will be set up on land at,the Indian Head proving grounds and fired at by heavy guns to determine the re- sistance of the framing of the turret to the battering effect of big shot.- —— Gov.

Lord Aberdeen -arrived at Ottawa, Ont., yesterday from Quebec, and the three Que- bec ministers who tendered their resigna- tions were summoned to meet his excel- lency. The object of this conference was, of course, to exact a compromise on the Manitoba school question, and thus heal the unseemly breach in the cabinet ranks. Whatever came of it, certainly ne definite terms of peace were contrived, because when the conservative leader was chal- lenged by the opposition in the house last evening to make a statement in regard to the three empty seats on the ministerial benches, he was unable to make a satisfac- tory explanatior. Sir Hector Langevin came to the rescue of the government, from which he was ousted in 1891 on account of the boodle scandal in connection with the Quebec harbor works. When the house divided he was one of the first to stand up with the government, and all the other French conservatives, with one exception, following his lead, the Aon-confidence motion to adjourn ‘was negatived by a majority of thirty-nine votes. This saved the government four the time being. see. PIEROLA CHOSEN PRESIDENT. Quiet Election Throughout the Peru- vian Republic. A special cable dispatch to the New York Herald from Lima, Peru, says: Nicolas Pierola, leader of the revolu- tionary party, has been elected president and Mr. Biliinghurst, vice president. Reports from all ports of the republic show that the election was quiet. Picrola was dictator in Peru for a year after the war with Chile, but was subse- quently exiled. Then came the last revo- lution, in which all the leaders consulted Pierola and asked his advice. The revolu- tion ended with the three days’ battle if Lima, which the insurgents had entered. A provisional government was established. Under the terms of the agreement by which hostilities ceased Caceres surrender- ed the reins of government, and Pierola agreed to retire to Chorulos. When Pierola returned to Lima on May 1 there was a tremendous demonstration on the part a the people. All business was stopped and 30,000 men and women par- tictpated in the reception. o+—___—_ THE RECRUITING SERVICE. - Details for Two Years Made by the Secretary of War. The acting secretary of war has made the following detail for the recruiting service for two years, beginning October 1 nex! One company officer from the first, sec- ond, fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth and tenth cavalry, and the first, fourth, sev- enth, eighth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth, four- teenth, sixteenth, eighteenth, twenty-third, twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth infantry will be selected by the respective regi- mental commanders and ordered to report, by letter, to the adjutant general of the army by August 15, 1895, for assignment to stations. In a general order on this subject the acting secretary says: “No officer should be selected for this duty who has been for a protracted period on detached service, or who desires the detail merely for pleasure, nor should any officer be given the detail who is not known to be discriminating in judgment and painstakirs, energetic and efficient in the discharg> of his military duties. Regimental commanders are en- joined to be guided solely by these consid- erations in making ‘the required selections from their respective regiments.” Recruiting has been quite active of late. During May there were 432 enlistments, an increase of seventy-one over April and sixty-seven over March. Recruiting is now concucted both at recruiting stations and at the military posts where the men are to serve. The latter system is in greater favor at the War Department, because of its greater economy and its facility for more prompt assignment to duty. Officials are therefore gratified because there were 306 enlistments at posts during May, against 271 in April and 248 in March, showing a steady increase. It is regarded as not improbable that nearly the entire army may eventually be supplied by post recruiting, although a few stations would still be nead2d at populous points where there are no posts. — Wants Fewer Hours of Work for Boys To the Editor, of The Evening Star: It is to be regretted that the young lads in lunch rooms and behind soda fountains in Washington have to work so many hours @aily. Ii is almost cruelty to keep young boys at work 11 and 12 hours a day during the warm months. Washington should set an example by prohibiting em- ploy es to keep their boy employes at work longer than 9 or 10 hours during the heat- ed months.
