'hat Hanlan May Beat Him Ir the Great Race To-Day. > ecia ! dispatch to The Bco. WASHINGTON , May 19 1 a. m rom outward indications it is safe to redact that Courtney is doomed to anlan. All signi indicate IuV3i : .it. All prospect predict it and bei ng is nearly three to one against him itli few takers at these odds. The lange in iho general feeling as to the robability of the race has been aud- an and decided. Hanlan has beer 10 favorite from the start , but up tc usterday it has been generally con- sded that the result wa * doubtful , wo events have contributed to btinp bout a change , the first is the arrival E a large number of Canadians with ockets full of money and anxious to et. They have frightened Courtney' ettera and bulled Haulan stock until t nine o'clock last night they wen Bering 100 to 35 on their favonto.anc nding occasional takers. An impor. mteventalio was another mishap t < ourlney. Ho took a hard pull yes jrJay morning and was afterward' jiztd with "violent pains which liatec im all day. A few held to the belie lat Courtney was only shaninru/ant lat it was a trick invented to bpa ! ourtuey stock , but careful Inquirj iows tluttha headache is both gcnu 10 and pevero. The public g nerjllj 1 inclined to believe that is an cvr ence that Courtney has not recoverec wm his sunstroke and is no lougei Mo to pull a hard race. News of hi : tidispoaitinn has revived the prodic' Ion that he would not row and tha liley would yet have to make u\ \ he race. Courtney himsel epudiates this idea. "I shall certainl ; mt in an appearance if I live , am hall row as fast and an long as I can , ' 10'said. . These are outward indica ions and if there is not some tricker tehind it all it seems more thanproba ile that Hanlan must win. He is ii irime condition which Courtney cer ainly is not. The race will not I- tarted until very late in the af ternooi n order that Courtney may not be af ected by the sun. If , therefore , hi icadache should prove to be unim wrtant and there should be no return if it , or no other accident should occu luring the race It will not be a wall ) iver for Hanlan. There has bee : omo talk that Hanlan intended t iell out the race and let Courtney win mt there is no evidence of snchinton ions and Hanlan denounced the re jolt as a lie. The race will bo witnessed by ai mmense concourse of spectator irobably larger than has ever befoi jathered at a boat race in this com ; ry.
