We frequently receive complaints of obstruc.
tons upon the sidewalks, all well founded, to
which We are requested to direct the attention
of the proper authorities by publishing the let
tiers of the compliments. We respectfully de-
cline. Our space is too precious to be taken up
with communications exposing what everybody
knows is public nuisance about which the au-
thorities are as well informed as the public, and
know great deal better that such nuisances
arc in direct vioIationof the Ordinances. The
proper way to proceed is to make the complaints
to the Commissioners Of Police or the Attorney
of the Common Council. The distractions are,
We know, sometimes made by permit granted
by the Mayor, though where he gets the author
ity 10 get aside the laws We do not know. Nor
do we know whether the Attorney to the Com
mon Council can enforce the ordinances against
the permit of the Mayor 10 establish o nuisance.
If he cannot, then there is no remedy, and the
patient public must contentedly break its shins
over barrels, boxes aud drays, or abandon the
sidewalks and take to the pavemcnts. So long
al the present system exists the storekeepcrs
who consult their own convenience at the OK
pense Of passers-by only laugh at newspaper
complaints.

THE COLLEGE REGATTA.

The victory of Yale in yesterdays regatta
was a very extraordinary one. II time is to be
accepted as the criteriOn-and we all agree in
America that it is-this race Is the most i'm.
portant ever pulled in this country, and il its
results is the most creditable, not merely to the
victorious crew, but to American rowing. For the
first time we have performance which seems
worthy to rank with the English University row.
ing on the Thames and though no details of the
match have yet come to hand, the wholly un'
urecedented time Of both winners and losers
shows that rowing in this country has entered
on a new era. And no matter what the new
era may bring forth, this race and the crew that
won it will be held always in honorable remem-
brance. For our part, We believe 1t Will be
long before the work done yesterday is ex-
celled. The championship which Yale has
won for tho third time may pass from one
side to the other, but the pace at which
this match was pulled will be very slowly,
If it Is at all, increased.
The time Of the Yale crew is IL minutes 42d
seconds, over the usual three mile course. That
is 543 seconds better than the best time before,
which was the Gersh Bankers on the same
lake-19 minutes 81 seconds. 1t is / minute
lsA seconds better than the Yale time of last
year, when the same crew beat the Harvard in
10 minutes second. And the Harvard this
year, though defeated, has the consolation Of
beating the Gersh Banker time 81 seconds, has
improved 81 seconds on its own time when it
pulled last year ss Sophomore crew in
10 minutes seconds, and has cut
down the University timo Of last
year ! minute 33i seconds. The race
is an honor even to the crew that has lost it
how much more to the Yalensians who win II
by 27A seconds. With such difference as that,
the Harvard crew will cheerfully admit that
they are very thoroughly beaten. The pa
seconds In tins represent about 400 feet
N space "a Tremendous gap even 70 ~

know that half boats length frequently dc.
termines a race, the distance will seem i'm.
mense. 1t was not close race at all, even by
American standards; and in England two or
three lengths-lO0 or $50 feet-are considered
bad defeat.
Yale will rejoice that this victory hos put rn
end forever to the slightly superc'lious treat
ment which she received from Harvard in those
early days when boating questions were INST
raised between the two colleges. Her repeated
defeats created feeling very like contempt on
the part of her rival which her first VIC
tory by no means dispclled, for it WIS
looked upon by Harvard men as an
unaccountable accident. When the victory
was repeated last year, Harvard found cause
of complaint in the refusal of the Yale Uni
yersity crow to meet the Harvard Sophomore
Oh the following day in the citizens regatta-a
refusal which we deem not only juStifiable but
necessary, for there was no ground whatever on
which class crew could call on tho University
crew to agree upon a match, or contest a cham
pionship which it did not lie with the sophomores
to put in ISSUE But this year the manifest su'
premacy of the Harvard Sophomorcs over the
rest OF their University left the Nag Of the Uni
yersity in their hands to defend. They have met
the crew they sought to meet last year, and are
bcatcn in a manner that, We presume, Is thor-
oughly satisfactory. Much as they had improved
on their form of the year before, Yale had I'M
proved or developed to still greater degree
and her successive victories have at last con-
WINGED the Harvard men that some good rowing
NAV como out of New Haven. 1t Is to some
extent the old story over agnin-the yictors
took lessons of the vanquished. As Charles MI.
taught the Russians, and as the AustrlanS
taught Frederick, so Harvard educated Yale
into conquering. For it is and has always been
our opinion that the first really good rowing
style on American waters was that which the
ST. John crews of New-Bruns wick brought
with them when they appeared on the
Charles. 1t was from them that Harvard
crews caught their inspiration and their style,
and for many years they kept 1t to themselves.
Yale learned its merits when it was displayed in
their defeat. Meanwhile, New-York crews had
seen the St. John men pull, aud they, Also
taught by defeat, had abandoned the wretched
chopping Whitehall stroke that formerly dis
tinguished them. SO Yale came TO New-fork
for coach, and the history Of their last three
victories shows the result.
We have good deal more to say on this race,
and on American rowing generally, but we pre-
fer to await the full reports, which We shall re-
ceive for Mondays paper. For to-day We ore
content to offer our heartiest congratulations to
the Yale crew, and to Yalensians in general.
