There were ten and twelve-oared cutters from the Brazil, French, British, Italian, German and English ves- sels, and in some cases two in o single ship were spinning over the water. There were five-onred cutters and whale boats and galleys. This afternoon each boat carried its proper flag that the spectators might tell who were the winners of the ces. The river, from One Hundred and Twenty-second to Sev- enty-second street, off of and between the course, was packed with spectators, and there were also numerous excursion boats and crafts of all kinds. The result of the day’s sport was a great vietory for Great Britain. Her tars carried off the honors, winning two of the three, and coming in a good cond in the other race, which was captured by the Russians. Picked crews from all the men-of-war except the Hollander, Van Speyk, participated, and they made as pretty a series of races as has been rowed on the Hudson. The course was between the lines of the men-of-war. Chic finish was a line drawn French tiagship Arethuse. The judges were on the Chicago. They were Lieutenant Underwood of the Newark, Licutenant Ackerman of the Philadelphi; and Lieutenant Twining of the Newar Lieutenant Rodgers of the Chicago acted as starter, The Philadelphia, Newark, Chi- ago and Atlanta of Uncle Sam's navy had many people on their aecks at 4 o'clock waiting for the racing to begin.

All the others were ina bunch just behind them. When the crews reached the Blake and it was scen that their boa' was winning there was a cheering and clapping of hands that could be heard a mile away as the British tars forged slowly ahead. The Ttalians alone stayed with them and a second Italian cutter and a rman boat pressed them closely. The Englishmen rowed like automatou The twelve men and a coxswain in esch leading boat Down past the four British ships and past vhe three Russians the crows rowed. A pistol shot on the Chicago an- nounced the finish and instantly the English boat banked oars while all the tugs whistled and the bands played *God Save the Queen, and the people on the decks of the men-of- war and the pleasure craft yelled and swung their hats The crew from the British ship istralia won in 25 minutes 50 seconds. he crew \ip Atna was with the ltalian crew from the Bausan next The ten-oarnd cutter of the Magicienne, which came in fourth, got the third prize by time allowance.

RAILWAY SURGEONS COMING, Nearly 1,500 Dolegates Will Attend Their Convention in Omaha Juae 1. From the inquiries Dr. W. J. Galbraith, chairman of the entertainment committee of the National Association of Railway Sur- geous, is receiving, Omaha, during the last day of May and the first two days of June will be overrun with surgeons from all sec- tions of the country, drawn thither by the annual convention of surgecns to be held on the dates mentioned. The capacity of the hotels will be tested and from present indi- | cations between 1,500 and 1,400 surgeons, in addition to their families, will be the city's guests during the three days indicated. Dr. Galbraith's mail 18 something pro- digious these days and he is up to his ey in work answering inquiries regarding hotel accommodations and assigning places to those who have signitied their intention to be present As yet Omaha has not taken the least notice of the coming of these representative men and some concerted action should be inaugurated to give the sawbones | a hearty western welcome. Dr. Galbraith siys that he cannot do all the entertaining. much as he would like to, and invites co operation on the part of representative city bodies in planning for the care of these men, who are emineat in one of the greatest of professions. The coming of these men means much for Omaha. They donot ask financial assist- | ance but do’ demand social consideration | They want the best the city can give them, for which they are willing and ready to p: but what will'go much further in their esti- mation will be a disposition on the part of the citizens of Omaha to treat them with the consideration they desery Dr. Galbraith has just returned from a meeting of the executive committee in Ch cago and says that the impression is general that out of 1,600 members at least 1,300 will be present. The hotels will be overcrowded during the convention and the desire to come to Omaha appears to be universal. Many of the members have national reputations and the gathering promises to be one of the greatest of its kind ever witnessed in any western city. RAILROAD TELEGRAPHERS. Serfons Maiters that Will Engage the At- tention o1 Their Next Conveution. Vintoy, Ia, May 6.—[Special to Tue Bee.]—The grand executive committee of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, which is in session here preparatory to the annual convention of the order, which will meet in Toronto, May has made considerable propress in its inquiry into the affairs of the concern as conducted during the past year, and promises grow brighter hourly for a general upheaval when the tion assembles. Charge: are made that both Thurston nd Ram- | sey have featherea thel nests during the past twelve months to an extent quite beyond the velief of old stagers, who have observed how these things are done in other oreanizations. Itis claimed v funds have been dissipated in a prodigal and senseless manner by the present adminis tration, not only in its action in cases of strikes, but in ot/ notably through the channels of the apher, & paper re- cently purchased the order to be run as its organ, of whi Thurston is editor. It is asserted that ‘Thurston has raised the salary list of a small thivty-two pagze paper, issuing twice a month, to 5,000 4 year, this entirely exclusive of the expensesof the mechanical department. One of Ramsey’s brothers is suid to receive a_salary of $1,200, while Thurston receives &2,000. It is aiso charged that through the wasteful extrava gance of the ofcials the convention. in- stead of finding a treasury with from $40,000 to §0,000 on hand, will find the strong box practically empty. Outof these charges it 18 thought the convention will have enough to occupy its mind for several days.

In its opinion the court holds that the Union Terminal company is a railroad company and may exercise the right of eminent domain. Judge Dayid Martin, the attorney for the Missouri Pacific, said this morning that the injunction cases in the district court of Wyandotte county and in the f 1 court at Topeka will be pushed In cases the conteution is that the place in question is an unsafe place for a grade crossing.

From the estimates made by the gatekeepers, there were at least 40,000 visitors admitted to the grounds The buildings and the roadways are prac tically finished, though much remuins to ba done in the way of placing exhibits.

At that hour they boarded the train for on park and visited the fair in a body. The piano and harp difficulty and the charges against Theodore Thomas continue to be the chief topic in oficial circles at the fair. Should Theodoréd Thomas resign his position as musicaldirector of the exposition, under the fire of critisism now being directed against him, or should he be forced out by the action of the World's fair authoritics, it is said that his position will be offered to Walter J. Damrosch of New York. No definite action has been taken either by Mr. Thomas or by the directors, but Mr. Damrosch has been prominently mentioned as a successor if one should now be necessary. The special committee ap- pointed to iuvestigate the matter will meet Monday morning at 10 o'clock.

President Higginbotham made the anuouncement today. As to what will be done in the future he would not say. The uational commissioners continue to discuss the question ua to what action may be taken by that body towards changing the Sunday closing rule. . Judge Clendenning said that while he was, personally, radically opposed to opening the'fair to the public on Sunday, he was positive the national commission had the authority to abolish the rule. He did not, however, believe the commission would ever do this. It would, he sud, require fifty-five votes, a majority of the whole rommission, to do away with the Sunday closing rule and he did not believe that many commissioners could be gotten together.
