Fifth Consecutive Victory of Maryland Onrsmen. The Baltimore Athletic Club's eight won the race for senior eights in the People’s regatta at Philadelphia Saturday. The victory was the fifth successive one this eight has landed. Two were won at Wash- ington last year, and this season the crew has defeated the Annapolis cadets, won the senior eight race on the Passaic and cap- tured the People’s regatta race. Not only has the crew taken every race, but in no contest has the coxswain seen the back of the coxswain in any competing boat in any part of a rece, Coxswain Whitehead says of the crew's plans: “Next Monday, July 13, the boys will get to work again, as our next effort is to he the crucial test. It will be at the National regatia, at Saratoga, August 12.

Racing at Hoth the Ivy City and Brightwood Tracks. There was racing Saturday at both the Ivy City and Brightwood tracks, ruhning Traces at the former and trotting at the lat- ter. There was a fair-sized crowd at each track, and the sport was rather interesting. The track record at Lrightwood, 2.24%, was broken by the bay gelding Nominee, driven by B. F. Milligan. In warming up he did the distance in 22, flat, and in the trial made it 2.20%. In the 2.35 class, half- mile heats, H. E. M., Longfellow, Bessie Gould and Sharwood started, Longfellow taking the first two heats and Bessie Gould the next three, the best time being 1.10%. The winner was owned and driven by W. H. Rabbitt of Rockville, Md. Danny M. took the first heat in the 3 minute class, half-mile heats, and Trinkett, owned by Mr. R. Rapley, took the next three, the best time being 1. Lucy Mason was the other starter. Dave Sondheim started the horses and John H. Gheen and H. Lansdale judged them. The first race at Ivy City was a half-mile dash, Treanna winning it in 53 seconds. Klondy’s Victim won at a mile in 1.51%, and Prosper won at six furlongs in 1.23% Ina match race at haif a mile Al. Schlotter- back’s Longshanks beat Robert Drew's Cadet in seconds. There was also a tatch race between the Homestead Stables’ Henrade and Mr. Cook's Flambeau, at five furiongs, the former winning. A mule race ended the sport. J. T. Hoge, H. C. Darragh and L. F. Bischoff occupied the judges’ stand, Tom Connolly wielding the flag. Cricket. At Mount Washington, Saturday, tffe Bal- tomer Cricket Club had an easy time de- feating the Washington eleven.

Oxford University, Engiand, beat Cam- bridge by four wickets in the annual crick- et match. The Oxford men were wildly cheered, as the alleged unsportsmanlike conduct of Cambridge made the victory popular. In the cricket match at Rugby, England, Haverford, Pa, declared its first innings closed at 4 o'clock with 261 runs for five wickets. Cycling. Out of an entry lst of 493 there were 405 starters in the Pullman road race, which was run Saturday by the South Side Cy- cling Club ef Chicago. The course was 14 1-2 miles. The best time made was 38 minutes 22 seconds, by James Levy, while the best previous time made in a race over nearly the same route was 50.17, held by Van Sicklen. The race winner was Ed- ward Hyle, handicap 7 minutes, time 40.21. Arthur E. Smith, the western letter car- rier cyclist, who left Chicago last Sunday night for New York, broke the bicycle rec- ord of 142 hours and 15 minutes. He ar- rived at 3.21 p.m. yesterday, in better time by 4 hours and 54 minutes than the record. In the Tourist Club's fifth annual wheel race meet at Willard Park, Paterson, N. J, H. XK.

TAKING A LAST PULL Yale’s Crew Practiced on Starts This Morning. MANY BOATS ON THE HENLEY COURSE Launches and House Boats Taking Their Positions. ee PROGRAM FOR TOMORROW ———— (Copyrighted, 1896, by the Associated Press.) HENLEY, England, July 6.—This little town and the clubs and residences on both barks of the river are fillIng up rapidly, and the last of the house boats and steam Isunches are taking up the positions allot- ted to them by the Thames conserviency officers. The fleet of pleasure craft already as- sembied shows that all records, so far as attendance is concerned, are likely to be beaten. The river banks are divided up into sections, and each craft is compelled to moor in the spot selected for it. It is only by the exercise of these pre- cautions that the course can be kept clear. This year a number of house boats and launches are flying the stars and stripes, and the number of Americans who will be present will be far greater than last year, when Cornell rowed. The crews entered for the grand chal- lenge cup are, in the main, so evenly matched that there is ttle choice between them. Yale’s Last Practice. The yeather today was blazing hot, and only the faintest wind was blowing. these conditions prevail tomorrow Yale will not reap the advantage of about one and one-half to two and a half lengths which she would have had in drawing the Bucks side, if the usually strong wind blew from off/that shore on that side of the river. The members of the Yale crew are all in excellent condition and confident of victory. They were out at 11 o'clock this morning, and paddled to Fawley court. There they started to do the “minute bar- rier,” but were prevented on account of the swarm of row boats on the river, and had to content themselves with practicing starts. They got away better than at any time since thelr arrival here, and the boat showed more life. The stroke was about forty to the minute. At the last trial Cap- tain Treadway’s stretcher broke, and the crew had to go in. The rigging of Yale's boat still seems to be amiss, but it is belteved that the neces- sary alterations will be made during the day. All the crews did light work during the morning, but Guy Nickalls went in for hard work. He first went out in a single- scull shell, then took a turn with the Leander eighi, and was afterward out with their four-oar crew. First Trinity did half the distance from the island in 3.35, and with a 38 to 36 stroke. The Thames crew went over the same course in 3.37. & New College went down to the island and practiced starts. Leander did the same. Yale's Courtesy to French Visitors. The French crew arrived today. The Yale men lent them their old boat pending the arrival of their own. The French oars- men were greatly pleased at this courtesy. The first contingent of the Yale men who arrived here by the Umbria yesterday reached Henley this morning, and are now taking in the sights and watching the practice of the crews. Among them were Messrs. Thorn and Cross. Tomorrow’s Program. The first event tomorrow will be the heat for the diamond sculls between F. Bedding- ton of the Thames Rowing Club and R. K. Beaumont of Burton-On-Trent. It will take place at about 11:30 a.m. At about noon the second heat for the diamond scull will be rowed, and the next event will be the first heat for the grand challenge cup. ‘The heats were drawn as follows: Heat A—Leander against Yale. Heat B—New College and Oxford against Trinity Hall and Cambridge. Heat C—London Réwing First Trinity, Cambridge. Heat D—Thames Rowing Club a bye. Second round—Heat E—The winner of heat B against the winner of heat A. Heat E—The winner of heat C against the Thames Rowing Club. Final heat—The winner of heat F against the winner of heat E. Next to the grand challenge cup, the greatest interest is taken in the contest for the diamond sculls, in which Dr. McDowell of Chicago will compete. The heats were drawn as follow: Heat A—F, Beddington, Thames Rowing Club, against R. K. Beaumont of Burton- On-Trent. Heat B—S. Swann of Trinity Hall against Vivian Nickalls. 3 Heat C—B. A. Guinness against Dr: Mc- Dowell. Heat D—Rupert Guinness, holder of the trophy, against H. T. Blackstaffe of the Vesta Rowing Club. Second round—Heat E—The winner of heat B against the winner cf heat D. Heat F—The winner of heat C against the winner of heat A. Final heat—The winner of heat against the winner of heat. THE HENLEY Club against REGATTA, An Account of This Old-Established Aquatic Institution. (Copyright, 1896, by the Aseoctated Press.) HENLEY, England, July 6.—The annual rowing regatta at Henley-on-Thames may be likened to the yearly race m€eting at Epsom when the Derby stakes are run for and the grand challenge cup, for which a Cornell crew competed unsuccessfully in 1895 and Yale is competing this year, may be compared with the blue ribbon of the turf as being the trophy of all, in its class, which oarsmen are proud to take part in winning. The regatta here was established In 1839, when the present series of aquatic combats was inaugurated and the grand challenge cup, purchased by public subscription, was first raced for and won by a crew from Trinity College, Cambridge. The blue ribbon of the river, allowing the grand challenge cup to be so called, Is a handsome silver vase of Etruscan shape, eleven inches high, thirteen inches in diam- eter and weighing about three hundred ounces. The cup proper rests upon a stem of bullcushes surrounded by richly chased representations of waves and the body of the cup is decorated with water lilies and other aquatic plants. Upon the obverse side of the grand chal- lenge cup Is a reclining figure of old Father Thames, holding in his hand an urn from which is issuing water, indicating the source of the river. The reverse side of the trophy is a shield bearing the inscription: ‘Henley Regatta, Grand Challenge Cup, 1839. Finally, the handles are bullrushes, merg- ing into a border of rushes and lily leaves and around the body of the cup are in- scribed the names of the crews who have been ita temporary possessors, including Trinity College, Cambridge, 1839; Leander, 1849; Cambridge Rooms, 1841 and 1852; Ox- ford University, 1813; Etonian Club, Oxford, 18144; Cambridge University, 1845; Thames Club, 1846; Oxford University, 1847 and 1848; Wadham College, Oxford, 1849; Ox- ford University, 1850, 1851, 1852 and 1853; ‘Trinity College, Cambridge, 1854; Cam- bridge University, 1855; Cheshire Rowing Club, 1856; London Rowing Club, 1857; Cambridge University, 1858; London Row- ing Club, 1859; First Trinity, Cambridge, 1860 and 1861; London Rowing Club, 1862; University College, Oxford, 1863; Kingston Rowing Club, 1864 and 1865; Etonian Club, Oxford, 1366 and 1867; London Rowing Club, 1868; Etonian Club, Oxford, 1 and 1871; ‘London Rowing Club, 187 and 1874, Leander Club, 1875; ing Club, 1 London Rowing Club, 1877; Thames Rowing Club, 1878; Jesus College, Cambridge, 1879; Leander Club, 1880; Lon- don Rowing Club, 1881; Exeter College, Ox- ford, 1882; London Rowing Club, 1883 and 1884; Jesus College, Cambridge, 1885; Trini- ty Hall, Cambridge, 1886 and 1387; Thames Rowing Ciub, 1858 and 1889; London Row- ing Club, 1890; Leander Club, 1891, 1892, 1893 and 1804, and Trinity Hall, Cambridge, 1895. This year the Henley regatta stewards have added to the beauty and value of the grand challenge cup by placing it on a base of silver and ebony. This base was designed by H. T. Steward, a well-known architect of London; 1s octagonal in shape, eighteen inches high and sixteen Inches at its base. Within its eight chaste and@ rich Corinthian columns are elght bent silver panels, each bearing the names of the fifty-six crews who have successfully competed for the cup. Beneath the columns are another set of Panels designed to be filled in with the names of the victorious crews of the future. The new base alone cost $1,000. The entrance fee for the “Grand,” as the cup Is generaly termed, is six guineas (about ($31.59), and, upon receiving the prize, the captain and the successful crew individually and collectively engage to return it to th stewards on or before June 1 of the follow- ing year. Regatta Rules, Tho regatta at Henley lasts three days; kegins each day at noon and lasts until 6 or 7 p.m., and, not infrequently, ten races are rowed in a day. The president of the regatta 1s Lord Camoys, and among the stewards aro Mayor Simmons of Henley, who gave such a kind welcome to the Yale crew; the Earl of Antrim, Lord Ampthill and a dozen other well-known gentlemen. The rules of the regatta are very strin- gent. Under them no person is considered an amateur who has at any time rowed or steered in any race for a stake or entrance fee, who has ever rowed or steered against a professional for any prize: who has ever taught athletics of any Kind for a profit; who has ever been employed on or about boats for money, or who has ever been a mechanic, artisan or laborer, or engaged in any menial duty. Several days before the regatta the cap- tain of each crew must deliver to the secre- tary of the ‘atta committee a list con- taining the ni; of the actual members of the crew selected to compete, to which list the names of four substitutes, for an eight- oar race, may be adédcd. Every competitor at Henley must wear complete clothing from the shoulders to the knees, including a sleeved jersey. ‘The Cornell men, in practice, appeared in the usual American sleeveless jersey, mere ly a strip over the shoulders, and very wide mholes. This caused an ‘outcry and all sorts of disagreeable paragraphs appeared in the newspapers. On the other hand, the young men from Yale, from the day they made their first appearance on the Thames, have appeared in the sleeve jersey, which forms, on ac- count of the very great number of ladies such an important feature of the ‘egatta. At the start, every competing boat must carry u flag at its bow, showing its college or club colors, and any infringement of the rules lay the crews open to disqualification. The course over which"«il the races are rowed Is exactly one mile and 550 yards long. The start is made just below Temple Is- land, on the Bucks (Buckinghamshire) side of the river, and is practically a straight course from start to finish, the bends of the river being very slight, and not of a nature to bother any competent coxswain. The races are rowel with the stream, which runs at the rate of about three miles an_hour. While piles at frequent, even distances are used to plainly mark out the course on both sides of the river, and white flags upon the piles at each quarter mile mark these dis- tances, ‘The width of the course between the piles is 130 feet. The Surroundings. Next to the racing, the great features of Henley, during regatta week, are the fleets of houseboats which are ranged on the Bucks side of the river and which extend to all intents and purposes from Temple Island, at the start, to Phylis Court, which is almost orposite the finish. Phylis Court is a beautiful and pietur- esque place, having a velvety lawn, shaded by magnificent elms, which extends house itself to the river side, where it 1s about eight or ten feet above the water. The lawn of Phylis Court, on regatta days, is one of the most attractive sights, as it is occupied by crowds of yaily dressed ladies who, with their escorts, stroll about be- neath the shade of the old elms and wit- ness the boat racing under conditions which naturally excite the envy of the less tortunate excursionists, = Above Phylis Court is the Isthmean Club, to which the majority of the rowing men belong. ‘They have charming quarters and the grounds are bright with many-colored tents and garden seats. Further on is a delightful institution known as “Clubland,” to which members of any recognized Londén or well-known out-of-town club are admitted. It has a reserved lawn for ladies and 1s very popu- lar during the regatta week. From Clubland on, up the course, the heuseboats, made wonderfully _beautif with floral decorations, soine of them helng actually floating flower gerdens, are inooz- ed or anchored, side by side, painted in the brightest of colers and having over them awnings and iron rods to which are attach- ed lines of colored lamps which are lizhted at night and which trausform the river into a delightfully illuminated spectacle. On the largest houseboats bands of music do their best to make matters still more interesting, and on board the smaller ones amateur musicians succeed in making their friends happy or unhappy, according to the circumstances and the skill of the per- formers and the endurance of the gay par- ties within hearing. On the Berks (Berkshire) side. of the Thames in this vicinity there is a wide, fiat plain which extends from the river. for about half a mile, at the end of which dis- tance beautifully wooded hills, almost ri- valing those about Cliveden, now the real- dence of Willlam Waldorf Astor, rise pic- turesquely grand, forming a most pleasant contrast to the lower surroundings. The famous towing path is on the Berks side of the river, and along it the friends of Yale expect to'run today and cheer the American crew to victory. There, however, the rushing crowd 1 motley and generally unpleasant to all but rowing enthusiasts. Gypsies, male and fe- male, in various shades of sobriety and cleanliness, minstrels, three card artists, Policemen, college athleter, ’Arrys and ’Ar- riets in holiday attire, swarm on and about the towing path, and jostling, and moze or less angry changes of personalities are not infrequent. But, as a rule, there are not many serious outbreaks and the excite- (Continved on Eelyenth Page.) | JACK O'BRIEN IS HERE Arrival of Washington's New Second Baseman.

Connie Mack, will make its second bow to the Washington base ball public this <fternoon at National Park. The personnel of the team is unchanged since the former visit, although it is pos- sible that Truby, recently secured from Chicago, may don a Pirate uniform today, Bierbauer being on the injured lst. Washington’s new second baseman, John O'Brien, reached Washington early this morning and engaged in practice with the club, He will appear in the game this afternoon without fail. O'Brien expressed himself as delighted with the opportunity to sign a Washington contract and said that he will do all in his power to help the Senators along toward the pennant. Crooks afl Rogers left for Louisville at 8 o'clock this afternoon. They have been faithful players and their deperture will be sincerely regretted by many. Record of the Clubs. Clubs. W. L. PC.
