Condition of the Contestants on the Eve of the Struggles. TO-DAY'S EVENTS. The Single Scull and Fresh- man Races. PROBABLE RESULTS. Saratoga, July 17, 1876. The interest in the coming contests here 1s hourly on the increase, every train adding to the already long lists at the hotels and bringing more and more hat bands striped in orange, blue and white or carnelian, the red, wnite and blue of Wesleyan or the crimson of Horvard. A now and most weicome feature is that tho single scull race has at last come to be something like what it should have been longago. It never wasa really close aud exciting struggle, Whether this is be- cause of the prospect of the winner soon having to meet C'ose and Walker, of Cambridge University, and La Batt, of Dublin, and perhaps more university men from across the ocean, or simply from an honest emu- lavien to strike a good blow for one’s own institution, it. is in any case the fact. REPRESENTATIVE SCULLERS, The four principal colleges here—Harvard, Columbia, Princeton and Cornell—each have a representative scuiler, and each ono looks fit to win the race. George D. Parmly, a Princeton Senior, will be remembered as the man who, pluckily keeping to Limself last year the fact that for ive nights before the race ho was well nigh sleepless, owing to a painiul felon on his hand, went into the race and fell over in the buat in a faint- ing condition, Ho bas improved greatly since last year, aud is almost the Jargest and burli- est man on the lake, He 18 very = spry and bandy in his frail little paper boat, and gets ber along very lively. While there 1s reason to think he will row with marked power and will stay well he seems scarcely quite so at home at tho work any of his rivals, one of whom he outweighs by seventeen pounds, another he outweighs by thirty-four and another by forty-six pounds—an enormous difference, Ho stands six feet one inch in height. Sill these large men are coming into favor this year, Trickett, the Australian, who recently beat Sadier so far and so'easily, and made himself champion sculler of tho world, 18 reported to be six feet four inches in beight and to weigh 210 pounds, tramed. Mr. H. G. Dawforth, a Harvara jumor, and. the nearest in weighs to Trickett, is a ciean cut, stringy, healthy looking tellow of five feet ten and a hall, twenty years old, and puiling a long, clean stroke. One of his rivals thinks he can beat Danforth, that Danforth will be beaten by Parmly, but that LITTLE F, Dd. WREKS, aColambia Junior, who stands bat five feet six anda hall, 1s only twenty-two years old and down to the dangerously low weight of 128 pounds, will beat them both, ‘That Weeks is a fast oar there 1s little doubt, but these very smail men are likely to be better at a short distance like a mile or less, aud he may find two miles rather fatiguing. Familiar as he doubtless is with the Harlem River, he could, in practice, see more good rowing than any of the others, and get the advantage of brushes with plenty of good men, Tne water ol the lake here though may prove less lively for him, hav- ing very often a two or threo-inch rippie, while’ the | placid Harlem is usually quiet and smooth. But the man who will in ail probability eat out work nicely fur all of them is ihe next to shortest, pext to lightest, and the oldest of them all, CHARLES 'S. PRANCI a Sentor from Corneil. He was here last summer for the scullers’ race, but an injury to bis boat on the day betore prevented bis entering. He has rowed nine events on Cayuga Lake, Lake: Ontario and other waters in the central and western parts of the Stato. Ko has scored several victories, mcludivg among those he has beaten sv good a man as Leffman, of the Nep- tunes ot Siaten Island. The number would donbtle: 'e been larger bad not the redoubiable Courtney: the well known Robinson been in the way. He is a thoroughly well built man, deep chested, strong in the back and legs and having the round, p.ump, soll look so marked im the fast vrofessional ullers George Engichar, He tooks fit for a great deal of bard work, and his bright, cheery, buoyant tace aad jolly air beget confidence at once. Yet good as he 1s, and likely to win the race, iis a pity that we have not meroly a really good sculler but a thoroughly formidable one, better even than Keunedy, of Yale, to meet the two unquestion- ably inst opes Dow coming across the broad Atiantic. THE LAKE was too rough forshell work for some hours this | morting, bata little belore eleven o'clock a six was | seen swinging down in a western lane, which proved to be the Harvard Freshmen, while steeriug m a pair pulling, sat Mr. Clifford Watson, — ot Boson.

Ho has sv far succeeded that no man bere taiks about the winner of this event without giving Harvard respectful consideration. ‘They kept their stroxe ap this morning even down to the last quarter to 35),, and looked as they sped on over the three imch waves, with the wind driving along behind, t6 Teach out iarther, foather lower and pull less in the eir than the University crew.

THE CASE OF JAMES H. RILEY BEFORE THR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE NATIONAL Ai SOCIATION—STATEMENT OF SECRETARY GABe FIELD. Aupany, N. Y., July 15, 1876. To tHe Eprror oy Tas Hera ‘I notice in your issue of the 12th inat, a communica tion conceruing the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen, and, although most aquatic gentlemen will perceive the animus and detect the misrepresentations of the anonymous writer, many of your readers may be misled by several of his statements, which I doom it my duty to correct, The National Association is engaged In an. open war- fare against hired oarsmen, who lack the manliness t¢ enter in professional races, but are anxious to compete in our regattas omequal terms with ucquestionable ama teurs, Becauso Mr. James H.

Being entered at our rega ta, beld ‘im Troy last. August, the charge was preferred azaiust Mr, Riley that he bad followed fishing as an ocoupa- tion. Un actount ot the late day at which it was pre- ferred the charge could not be properly substantiated at (he time—to procure satisfactory proof im such cases is always a matter of great difliculty—aod the Regatta Committee consequently aliowed bim to row and brought the case before the Executive Comittee for investigation... Tne latter committee appointed the un- dersigned and Mr. Eustis as a sub committee to ascer- tain the tacts. It was expected that a report would be made and the case decided at the meeting hela Janusry 20, but, through delay of the Neptuno ‘Club’ in presenting evidence for the delence, the maticr was postponed until the following day. ‘Meantime, several of the Ex. ecutive Committee had returued to their homes, and wheu the report was made the aly gentiomen present were the three who have sustained Mr. Riley through- out and the secretary. The sub-committee’s report wat divided, ono favoring Mr. Riley's acquittal ana the other bis conviction, and the committee voted that the charges were not sustained. Two gentlemen were re corded as voting, through their proxy, with the ma ‘y's favor, who, after they had. oer ‘sonully examjned tuo evidence, became satisfied of guilt.” Accordingly, at the next atom A one of them moved a reconsiderauion-of the voie, which was bad, tho two genticmen who had v by proxy for his ac- quittal now voting for lis conviction, aud Mr. Riley was accordingly «disqualitied aud ha’ ¥o stood ever since.

They were, however, will- ing to receive any new efidence, witu the distinct understanding that the prosecution be afforded an op- portunity of revutting it, and, after the arguments pro and con had been submitted, they stood ready to decide equitably as to whether the evi- dence justified a reopening of the case, But, determined to reinstate the man by fair moans or by Joul, the m nority, contrary to justice, precedent and the assuciation’s written law, “excluded proxios the Saratoga from voting on the question.
