Niw : LONDON , . Conn. . July 1. This has
boon n Yale week , with a Ynlo fliilsh.
Tuesday came the base ball victory over
Harvard ; this morning the Yale fresh
men's conquest of Harvard ' 05 In the an
nual two-mllo row on the Thames put n
glossy llnlsh on the whole season's aggrega
tion of Ynlo's ' nchlovomoiits , Iho rocora of
Iho Yale 'varsily eight in lurnlng Iho
tables on Iho Harvard crow this afternoon
leaving them oven farther behind than Yale
was loft last year , nnd ihul Is sayiutr n great
deal.
deal.Tho
The Harvard men have fallen away from
their interpretation of thn Cook stroke
which won lor thorn last year , nnd have sub-
slltulcd a faster , but niuch less circetivu
method. Yale was again the worthy expo
nent of the doi'god , rugged , deliberate stroke
which has pulled its representatives' shell
across iho line ahead so many times In so
many years.
The water was perfectly smooth , the air
clear and the lido was nt full abb. A strong
breeze was blowing from the north nt the
backs of the crows ns they rowed down
stream with the tide. All tho'elrcunxstancos
were highly favorable to the lighter nnd
llvlior crow ot Ynlo and ad verse to Harvard's
bcollor and stronger oarsmen.
The start was made at 5:17. : Harvard teen
the lead. For the Ilrst 100 ynrds thov ' Kept
it , pulling n Ihlriy-nlno-stroko , while 'Yale's
was about thlrty-oiuht. Yale splashed
badly and Iho boat rolled a liltle , while Har
vard got oil comparatively smoothly. At i50
yards from the start , the Yule nrowhad shot
past Iho Hurvnrds. Yale hid found IU form
nnd from that tlmo on was never headed.
Harvard made a dosperaio. light before re
linquishing the lead. In so doing she
dropped Into bad form , causing the boat to
roll and progress by perceptible Jerks.
At the Ilrst half mlle Ynlo was rowing half
n length in Iho load , wilh both crows exhibit
ing the first burst of speed witnessed during
Iho entire race. Yale continued its effective
spurt during tbo second half milo , wbilo
Harvard fsll back lltllo by little. When the
Yule shell passed tbo first milo post it was
three lengths ahead and four lengths ahead
at Iho Iwo milo posl , which marked iho con-
elusion of hair the race. At iho Iwo milo and
n half mlle posl Yale was eight lengths ahead.
The nlHIiitlon which overtook Harvard
O'lr.smcn at this particular point of the ruco
was splashing. For 100 yards they pulled
like freshmen In this respect. Yale crept
steadily and smoothly ahoad.
After the third mlle post It was n proces
sion , Ynlo working with methodical precis
ion whllo Harvard was ragged. As the boats
pasted between the long lines of ynchts which
enclosed the tlnlsh , u rousing"suluto was
given both crews , and Iho elToct was mag
ical. The stroke was quickened nnd
the oarsmanship of both crows decid
edly moro trim Al 5:37. : 43 the Ynlo boat
shot by the llnlsh with Harvard fifteen or
sixteen lengths in the rear. Harvard's shell
crossed the line f > 5 ! seconds later. Every
whUtlo In New London lot loose nnd Iho din
was distracting. Thousands of blue Hags
floated aloft , while the crimson dropped or
kept , modestly out of flight. Oflicinl tlmo
forfour miles : Yale , 20:43 : ; Harvard ,
21:13M. :
Early in the day Harvard men wanted odds
of $101) to$7d. but the last bets wcro mudo ut
$100 to $ . " > .
NKW LONDON , Conn. , July I , A "cookod
hat" bunt race , two miles straight away , be
tween the freshmen eights of Yale , Harvard
and Columbia was rawed hero today liiiloou
lido and with the current , starling
ul 11:15. The conditions of wind
and lido were almost perfect , though
t'uo rain came down qnito heavily
whllo the crow were on iho way to the nturt-
ing point , and the breeze started up , making
the water somawhai rough before the start.
Harvard won iho toss and chose the inlddln
cour.se. Yale selected the west , nnd Colum
bia was given iho cast. Before the word
was given for the start the ram began to
pour down and u strong northwest headwind
began to blow.
At iho pistol shoi Columbia caught llio
walor Ilrst. though Ynlo's powerful stroke
gave ihul crew ihu lead at once. All rowed
u fast Btrotto , thlrty-nlno to forty-one to the
minute for the Ilrst quarter of u mlle , * At
that distance they were well bunched , with
Vale loading by n few ynrds , Columbia und
Harvard very close lORotttcr. Yale dropped
her stronn lo thlrty-olght , with Harvard und
Columbia rowing forly. Nevertheless , Ynlo
gained ntovury stroke , nnd was two lengths
itlioad at the uud of the throe-quarters of a
'JlilO.
'JlilO.Al the end of iho mlle , Yale ( juloiccnod her
stroKe lo forty anu Columbia began to show
Jerky work. At the boglnnlni ; of the last
half the fnsi work begun to toll ou all the
oarsmen. Columbia steered wildly , but in
Hplto of that maintained iho loud of Harvard ,

They rroposo to Force n Vote In tlio llouso
Hnl'oro Ailjouriiinont.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , July 1.-Tonight
Morgan , Alabama's senator , snont an hour
nmoiig his frlonds. Months ago Morgan un
dertook the task of "smoking out" sonatorj
who hung doubtfully nloot from nny vote
that would comimi them on the silver ques
tion. Ho succeeded nnd overthrow moro than
his enemies , for ho obliged a reluctant
Benato to pass a bill ns radical in Its
.absolute free silver coinage requirements 13
the most devoted friends of the metal could
dosiro. The bill now coos to the house nnd
thai body which burled the question , ns was
supposed , for the present sosslon nt least ,
will ntrain bo obliged to face the issue.
When It Koachus tlio Home.
The bill will turn up In the house tomor
row nnd If thu usual course of legislation Is
followed it will ba referred to the coinage
committee. A prompt report is expected on
the bill from the committee , nnd li will toke
Us place on the calendar , following hundreds
of other bills , nnd with about ns
much chance of bein ? reached in the
ordinary course of business as n bill to
brldtro the Atlantic , but friends of the bill ,
stimulated by the notion of the sonnto. will
demand nnrly action. They hold that it
would bo bad politics to nllow n silver bill
passed by n republican sonnto to fall In n
democratic house. Besides they nrosoro from
their last failure , when they atlomptoa lo
got the cloture rule to force a voloontho
house silver bill. So they uro going to insist
on a special order from the rules committee
that will glvo the house a chance to vote
squarely on the free silver coinage propos
ition , and so'iio southern members tonight
assort that not n wheel shall turn , not an
appropriation bill pass , nnd not even the
further extension of appropriations shall bo
mudo until they got that special order ,
Will .Mrot Opposition.
On the other hand the llttlo phalanx of
democrats under the load of Tracoy and
Williams , who so successfully resisted the
silver men before now , are full of confidence.
They feel they can now have the active sup
port of the republican members who do not
wish to force the president to pass upon the
bill before election day , and they are already
preparing for n test of endurance.
That is what it will amount
to from the present indications ,
nnd the question narrows down to ono
point , nnd that is the ability of the silver
men lo secure n quorum In Iho houso. An
unilcd democracy bus not. been nblo lo milu-
Inln a quorum for nn hour during the lost six
weeks and it is not easy to see how a portion
of the democracy can do moro. They think
Ihoy can nnd iho other side is sure they can
not , and this is the situation tonight.
It is early yet to talk ubout the prospects
of a vote , but the ono nrgumont iho silver
men nro m'aklng to moot that point is thnl
sot out by Mr. Morgan yostordav , when ho
said Iho president was lee high-mfndod lo re
sist the will of the people in so Important n
matlor.

Niw : YOIIK , July 1. The Southern society ,
moro commonly known ns the Southern club ,
has boon considerably agitated for three
day * over the question of sending conerutu-
latlnns loGrovor Cleveland. In faotthnclub
has booomo split on tha subject , and , ni n ro-
suit , what was originally doslgnoil to bo a
letter bearing the namoi of almost tha entire
membership had dwindled to n uoto bearing
only about n dozen nainos.
The Southern club has n membership of
nbout 1,000. It numbers among Its members
every so Hhornor ot prominence now a resi
dent In this city , and nil conspicuous uiihllo
southern nonresidents who come to Now
York.
A few of iho most enthusiastic Cleveland
men last Monday conceived the Idea of con
gratulating the democratic nomlnroo. Accod-
ingly , the followluc letter was drawn up for
signatures :
"Tho undorslgnod momborj of the South
ern club congratulate you most heartily upon
your selection nl Chicago ns the proper expo
nent of the principle * of national democracy.
They pledge you their earnest , unfaltering
support in the comltm contest for democratic
supremacy nnd good government , for your
election only will save tuo country from sec
tionalism nnd the result of the infamous
force bill. "
Colonel J. Monroe Hnsklll of Baltimore ,
who ran for mayor of that city AS an Independent -
pendent democrat in 18SU , on ardent Cleve
land man , took iho loiter around among the
members nnd had no diflleuity in setting
many signatures. But soon objection was
raised , and It did not como from ono of iho
republican members either. The objoctora
said they oppoiod the latter because it would
glvo the erroneous Impression thatthoSouth-
orn society was a political organization.
Mr. Cleveland's friends contended that it
wns merely an oxprosslon of sentiments of
Individual members. Many of iho members
had boon frlonds of Senator Hill , nnd so vig
orous did they make tholr protest that these
who wanted to congratulate the ox-presldont
agreed to draw up n now lollor , In which the
words "tho undersigned members of the
Southern society" should bo omitted. This
was oono and the letter road thus :
"Wo nro pleased to congratulate you most
heartily upon your selection at Chicago ns
the proper exponent of the principles of iho
nnllonul democracy. Wo pledge you our
oarnosi and unfaltering supporl in iho con
test for democratic supremacy. Your elec
tion only will save the country froai section
