OF every body interested n aquatic sports,
and more particularly such as mad hoped for
victory in the coming international row.
iDg contest at Philadelphia. a rumor was
current that John Bigiin had Withdrawn
fom the American crew. From q gentle
man conversant with the facts In the case IT
was ascertained that the only reason as
signed by Biglin was that he was dabarred
from engaging in the single 5cuu race, and
In that pect he had not been treated fairly
by his hackers. The situation, as explained
by cur Informant, is about this: Mr.. Biglin
agreed In writing not TO row in any race i'm
mediately preceding the four oa red race, im
mediately after which he was privileged to
do so. To that end he had trained all spring
and summer, aid now, within ten days OF
The race, he has hacked out. AS the person
referred TO remarked to the reporter, thai
participating IN the contest, however, as
lwo substitutes, who are already In training
aud on tT,sl. have been secured, and one OF
them Will make up The four. The pos tions
In The boat have necessarily been cha0ged
