LONDON. March 30. (Now York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Oxford's
Kood generalship and lino uttering defeated
Cambridge today by the narrowest margin
on record In tho fifty-eighth olght-oarrd
shell raco between the universities. Tho
win was by a mere trifle of twenty feet.
Tho bow of the Cambridge shell was almost
oven with the bowman In thu Oxford boat.
When one remembers that the crows raced
from Putney to Mortlnke. four miles and
400 yanlB, the close finish becomes mar
velous. In tho coxswain's scat of tho
Oxonian shell sat 0, S. Maclagan of Mag
dalcn, a veteran blue, who has traveled the
course, many times. Tho yoke lines of tho
Cambridge shell were held by K. A. Jnltn
csoni who had never steered a racing 'var
sity Crew over tho historic course until
today. That tolls tho story. Experience
won.
The" war lu South Africa had robbed both
crews' of good men and good poachers, but
there, were eight powerful, well-sear.oncd
fellows In each shell that enmo paddling
up to tho starting skiffs Just above Putney
bridge, The Cambridge men sat higher
and their backs aud 'shoulders showed tho
mightier bulk, Oxford's fellows" wero not
o big lookfnic, but their time and blade
work wcro prettlory As a matter of fact,
tho Cambridge crbw averaged only one
pound and a half heavier than their rivals.
The raco was rowed upstream on tho
strongth of the flood tide. Tho south wind
was blowing it good woven knots an hour,
and for the first mile and a half It struck
tho boattt on the part quarter, making ex
ceedingly difficult going for nny but tho
best wnlcrmanshlp. Colonel Wlllnn gavo
the slgnul at 10:25 n. m. and the crews
caught tho water almost together, Cum
in Idgo a fraction of a second In advance,
doing thirty-four to the minute, while Ox
ford pt thlrty-llvo soon came up and showed
a Blight lead. For n mllo thoy rneed side
by lde, then Maltland raised Cambridge's
stroke a point and the light blues slowly
forged ahead, being half a length ahead at
llammirsralth, wid;0-Wtwliirre-quartera
from the start.
Knee Ant .Uunx o the Swift.
There was rough wntcr at the turn hero
to the left aud the1 wind, which was now
almost dead ahead, bothered Jamleson a
lot. Ho did some rough steering. Mac
laglan kept the buw of the Oxford boat
from rating up to windward. Ills men
cumo down to 20. good generalship In the
rough water, and they plowed along steadily
nnd nraoothly.
Mnlttnnd, being young nnd Inexperienced
over the long louio, kept his men htiHtllng
nnd, though they Increased their lead to u
Ici-gth nnd a half at liarnesbrltlgo (threo
nnd a halt miles), it wus at the expense
of n great ileal nf strength. Here the
winding little Thames takes n northerly
turn to the right. This brought the wind
almost ubram. Tbo veteran Culmo Sey
mour, nt stroke lu tho Oxford shell, gently
brought tho pace up to 30, to 32, and so
on to 31. Ills men horsed tho old ship
along as If they wcro anchored. Inch by
Inch sho crept, then overlapped, then got
almost on even terms. Stroke Mnltlund of
Cnmbrldgo saw tho danger and raised his
pnee to 30, but his men wero spent; they
could nut smite with tho vigor of tho fel
lows who had tuken It Mow In tbo rough
water. Up and up again Maltland raised
tho stroke, his broad back straining under
the awful load of tho heavy boat as his
men for tho first few strokes failed to
catch with him. Then they caught the time
nnd backed him up as one man, and tho
shell Hew onward for a slight gain. Porty
to the mlnutn they were doing. And al
ways Culmo Seymour nnd his crew were
heaving mightily nt their thirty-four and
ciceplug up ns the Cambridge fellows be
gan to tire.
it was not until they wero a furlong from
home Hint Oxford's bow Bhowed an Inch
beyond the bow of tho light blues. Fran
tically (bough Cambridge sprinted, tho
Oxford shell kept ou gaining and crossed
the finish line two-fifths of a length Id the
lead. They hung over their oars for n few
minutes before they wcro able to straighten
up and paddle home.
The time at the main points of the courr.e
was; Craven Steps, 2:2S; mile, 3:54 (beat

LONDON. March 30. Oxford's coxswain
snatched a victory from Cambridge today
In a boat-steering raco, after tho light
uiues (Cambridge) bad led by h length and
a half, at Barnes Bridge. Advantage at
that point Is supposed to mean a sure vic
tory. The crews wero so evenly matched that
clever steering meaul everything. In this
alone the dark blues (Oxford) hud tho ad

a strong south wind mndo n discouraging

Hood tide, with a seven-knot breeze on
the port qunrtor at tho start, which was
made at 10:25 n. m.
Hnlh crews rowed down to tho starting
fcklffs. There was little to choose between
them In action or physique. At Colonel Wll
llam'w signal tho crews caught tho water
together, but Cambridge's snappy stroke
gave them a khado the better of the start.
Cambrltlgo rowed thirty-four strokes to
the minute at the start and Oxford thirty
five, which brought the dark blues abreast
if Cambridge aud gave them a fractional
lend, which was lost before Hammersmith
brldgo was reached. Cheers rose from
Cambridge's steamboat as their boat passed
Hammersmith bridge, half a length ahead.
On tho Oxford steamer there was deep
silence nnd anxiety.
At Thorueycrofts very rough water was
met and the turn of the course brought the
wind around and uhead. There the super
iority of Uracil's (Oxford) boat showed It
self, lloth crews dropped their stroke to
twenty-ulna, but Oxford wan the steadier.

LONDON, March .10. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The dis
sensions of the king and 'queen form a
burning topic of discussion In society,
where sympathy Is wholly with tho king 'n
bis Intlstenco that the queen shall play
it prominent social part.
The queen virtually wants to nbdlcate her
functions and live In almost as complete re
tirement as when she was tho princess of
Wales. She Is extremely tenacious In her
opinions, and It can easily be understood
bnw the king has forfeited tho Influence
over her by which he might otherwise
mold her to his will. He has Implored the
dowager empress of Hussla, now In Copen
hagen, to persuade the queen to accept
boldly tho responsibilities of her new posi
tion, and hopes much from her sister's In
tervention. Tho Prlnrrsi Victoria is proving as In
tractlble as her mother. She has gone on
n private visit to Devonshire to her old
governess for a month Instead of accom
panying the king to Windsor.
Edward meanwhile is playing the affec
tionate grandfather to perfection. Imme
diately upon his return to 1-ondon after
the departure of the duko and duchess of
York ho had their children brought to Marl
borough house, where he kept them under
his own eye. taking them down to Windsor
with him for the Easter holidays.
Meanwhile he Is unbending Just n little In
an extremely quiet wny from tbo attitude of
austere reserve nnd dignity ho first
adopted. Ho dined out twice this week,
onco with Alfred Ilothschlld nnd once with
Miss Keyser. Tho first was a seml-polltlcat
men's dinner, at which wcro Joseph Cham
berlain, Arthur Ilalfour and Karl Roberts,
while the other was a bridge whist dinner,
with .Mrs. Oeorge Keppel, Oeorglna, count

MANILA, Mnrch 30. In company . h
Colonel Vcllln, his chlcf-of-stalf, nnd Dr.
Barcelona, ex-treasurer of tho Filipino gov
ernment, Aguinaldo now- occupies one of
the nicest apartments of the Malacanan
palace. Ho Is closely guarded aud cour
teously treated. Captain Praurls J. Kcrnnu
of the Second infantry, Captain William L.
Kenly of the First artillery, members of
General MacArthur's staff; Captain Ben
jamin II. Randolph and Lieutenant Gilbert
A. Youngbcrg of the Third artillery, with
live guards, aro watching him.
Aguinaldo, nervously pacing tho floor nnd
deeply thinking, thrusts his hands through
his hair. He smokes many cigars and
cigarettes nnd has a hearty appetite.' He
speaks only a few words of English. He Is
conscious of his dignity, but tries to talk
pleasantly with his guards. He often
praises the skill and audacity of General
Kunston In effecting his capture, saying
that only by strategem could he have been
captured. It is sail Aguinaldo Is very
strongly adverse to reverting from his
former attitude, but that he must regard
the best Interests of the Filipino people.
The sisters of Dr. Barcelona havo called
upon him, bringing a plentiful supply of
linen.
Is No I'heitp Mini.
Aguinaldo is well supplied with money
and has ordered a supply of new clothes.
He Is careful of his personal appearance.
He celebrated his 32d birthday the day
before ho was captured. The birthday fes
tivities wcro prolonged and only terminated
upon the arrival of General Punston.
Aguinaldo tries to read tho American
newspapers and is anxious to learn the
stato of public opinion In tho United States
regarding Philippine affairs. Ho has again
conferred with General Trias nnd the chief
Justice, Arellano, but his future Intentions
have not been announced. He spends much
tlmo seated by n barred window watching
tho boats passing up and down the Paslg
river.
This morning Aguinaldo was recognized
by s. crowd of, natives point upv the rlver
In a llghte"r ' The natives gazed' at him"
awhile In silence and then began to Jeer,
railing him "Erolllo" end vile names In tho

in disgust.
Native Sny Little.
The natives In Manila arc undemon
strative concerning Agulnaldo's capture and
It is difficult to ascertain what tho ma
jority of them really think of It. It Is
certain that Agulnaldo's Influence Is less
strong than formerly, though It is still
great.
Tho representative of the Associated
Press has Interviewed many Filipinos, In
cluding both business and professional men
in Manila, aH well as representatives of
tho lower classes and former Insurgents
on tho capture of Aguinaldo. Tho ma
jority of tho persons questioned were
unfelgncdly glad that Aguinaldo bad been
captured nnd snld they considered that
the worst obstnele to the speedy pacification
of the Islands bad been removed. Some
men distrust Aguinaldo and advise his im
mediate deportation. Others believe he
can render vast assistance by urging his
countrymen to ncquiesrc to American
authority. All men agree that the outlook
today Is much brighter.

At tho graduation exercises yesterday of
the Manila Nautical academy, General Mac

most Important rail, locomotive and guu
factory In France, nbout Thomas Edison's
now claim that ho has discovered a process
that will blaot America's steel supremacy.
This process has created great excitement
here and In Kigland lately, because If Mr.
Edison could r, ally separate hematite from

semer steel, enormous European oro do

Mr. Schneider al - his tef raining engi

said:
"What Is the use of discussing Mr.
Edison's advertising dreams? He has no
special knowledge of metallurgy, and tho
problems he claims to havo solved have
engrossed scientists nil over the world. Let
Edison occasionally do what he claims ho
can do nnd then wu will bo wlllllng to give
him attention. But Edison's tuctlcs, llko
Tcsla's, consist of finding what dlfllculty
puzzles scientists and announcing that their
own genius Is nbout to solve It. Hut when
the tlmo comes neither realizes his glowing
promises.
' Let it be said once for nil, that real
scientists all over the world consider Edison
and Tcsla a pair of humbugs.
"What has Edison discovered except the
phonograph, which was a chance discovery
and not tho remit of scientific perspicac
ity? Not electrlcnl incandescence, for
that was really Invented In Germany, nor
tho blograph, which was discovered hero by
Lumlcre, nor anything of real Importance.
"On the other hand, has Tcsla destroyed
the Spanish fleet, as promised, or tele
phoned across tho ocenn, or lighted
houses without wires, or entered into com
munication with the planet Mars?
"It Is a perfect wonder that tho American
public, with Its quick sense of humor, has
not long ago shamed these two pretender

LINCOLN, March 30. (Special Telegram )
Tho windup of tho legislative session Is
proceeding with the usual Incidents that
mark the dissolution of such bodies. So
far iim the legislative calendar Is con
cerned It Is still Thursday and tho silent
clocks with motionless hands Indicate a
suspension of tho lapse of time. Tho houfo
Is well up on Its business, buckling down
seriously only at Intervals, but the senato
has to keep at It Incessantly to llnlsh tho
bills awaiting action on the files. It will
be nt least Sunday evening beforo final
word of adjournment Is pronounced.
Tho only Important measure up today
was senato tile lti.1, known ns thn bill to
nuthorUe a compromise of tho obllgatlou
duo the stato by the Hartley bondsmen. As
already stated In Tho Bee, tho principal
sureties, notwithstanding tho fact that lu-y
had taken pains to mnko themselves ex
ecution proof, have been busy lining up
members In fnvor of tbo bill nnd thn vote
of .r.:i to 22 Is tho beet proof of whut offeu
tlvo work they accomplished. Strange to
say, although It was known there wcro
several outspoken opponents of the scheiuo
in the houso who could havo put up h
vigorous light against loudlng the taxpayers
with a shortage of nearly $750,000, which
the bondsmen ought (o make good, not a
word of discussion was precipitated, bin.
the bill railroaded to Its passage by roll
roll as If tho tracks had been specially
grenscd.
All Uehnte !llpprreil.
It Is true threo or four members ventured
to explain their votes on both Rides of tho
question, but none of them went to tho
gist of tho bill. Theso explanations woru
us follows:
Hy Fowler Tho notions brought by our
late nttorn-n- uenerul, C. J. Hmyth. wero
conducted with consummate ubllltv ami un
tlngglng zeul. yet without nucces.i. Thu
present attorney general Is understood to
bellevo that moro can bo reullzi-il for tho
Mtuto by compromise tbiiu by further in
tlons In the court. Governors Holcumb mul
Poynter, who are thoroughly i-onversent
with the f.iots. uiLisc ii compromise. Hn
llev Ing thnt tho Judgment of t!ise ufllecrs
is fo.inded on ample kuuwiedsu of the Inut.i.
I voto yen.
Hy Sprecher-Hellevlng thnt this umj
of tho State of Nebraska against tbo Hurt
ley bondsmen has been purpoeoly delayed
In tho Interests) of said bondsmen by otll.
dais who were supposed to servo the state,
mid that Hiild delay, followed by this prop
osition for u compromise. Is simply accord
ing to the program; further believing that
that bond meant Just whnt It said uud
should ho so considered, mul thnt thlH bill
would not only do n rnnk Injustlco to tho
people of this state, and also establish a
bad precedent ns to such matters, I voto
no.
Hy Ollls I am opposed to dismissing
such ciisch without nt least part payment,
and the friends of this bill, having opposed
mi amendment to provide for nt least L5
per cent, 1 voto no.
Hy Armstrong Ah n mutter of busi
ness, when I cannot necuro the pavmcnt of
uu amount in inn i consider It good pulley
to accept pari rattier t tiati notli nir. If ih,
state can by a compromise nct'iire it part
ut nun iuhs it win on inuen peuer inuu
nothing.
An examination of tho Individual record
which Is given In tho report of routine
proceedings will show that of tho flfty-
threo affirmative votes twenty-six wero
fuslonlst nnd twenty-sovcn republican. Of
tho twenty-two negatives, ten wero repub
lican and twelve fuslonlsts. It Is notablo
that among thoso who did not voto nt nil
were several who nro still in nttendanro
at the legislature and who wcro expected to
be recorded "no."
Mr. II row n l'et-1 AuktIi-v eil.
The passage of this bill brought forth a
speech from Brown of Furnas taking ex
ception to whnt The Beo had said about
his relations lo tho men behind It us n
reflection upon him. It would bo nu ex
ceptional legislature that did not endeavor
to take Tho Beo to task at least onco or
twico for exposing Jobs and deals nnd this
ono could not miss tho opportunity.
Mr. Brown read from Tho Bee tho artlclo
giving information of the Influences at work
to secure tho Hartley bond compromise nnd
as a question of personal prlvllego under
took to defend his position. He said ho had
not known until a few- days beforo election
that an effort was to be made lu tho legis
lature to relieve his uncle of the obliga
tion resting on him as ono of the Hartley
bondsmen nnd thnt had ho known it sooner
ho would havo refused to havo hecomo u
candidate for tbo legislature. Ho denied
that ho had directly or Indirectly solicited
votes for the bill and pointed to the fact
that ofter reading Tho lleo for fear of lay
ing himself liable to Impugnment of bis
motives, ho had refrained from voting on
It at all, although ho wanted to nnd
although It needed votes badly.
Let n Cnl Out or the llm;.
In conclusion, Mi. Brown endeavored to
ascribe tbo reference to hlin In Tho Bee to
tho fact that ho hud not voted for Mr.
Roscwater for United States senator,
"I was solicited," ho Hhouted, "over ami
over by lntlinato friends to voto for Ed
ward iloscwater for senator, Tlmt I stead
fastly refused and told them I never would
vote for Roscwater for senator (pausing)
unless he should first ho nominated In .a .
caucus In which I participated."
This belated ndmlsslon Is thn real ex
planation why Brown hold out of tho Inst
republican caucus. Pp to this time bin
failure to participate was based on thn
protenso that It was n short caucus, al
though ho had previously been participating
In tho original caucus after It had beeu
left short by tho walkout of tho nine se
ceders aud had repeatedly assured friends
that he would support tho republican can
cub nominees without thn reservation that
ho should partlclpatu In tho caucus.
At the close of his remarks Wbttmoro and
Mockett Jumped Into tho breach to testify
to Brown's Integrity and character, and
Sprochcr. Slockwcll. Iomls and n fnw
other fuslonlsts added their Indorsement to
his purity of motives.
Piny llore ivllli Owl fur Mini.
Something moro than humor tinged the
Joko perpetrated on Representative Johnson
of Uouglaa today when Tanner moved to
reconsider tho "owl ear bill" and railed
ou Johnson to tell what led him to changd
