SARATOGA. n. Y, July 5.
The second annual regetta of the Intercol-

today on account of the rough conditioa of
the water in Saratoga lake, has again been
postponed until next Monday morning at
nine o'clock. A heavy shower fell last even.
ing and another followed early this morning,
which wrinkled the brow of the weatherwise,
who early in the day predicted an ugly day
and another postponement The wind made
ite appearance early in the forenoon, and at
10 o'clock when the crews were to have been
called, the lake was running high, and the
white-capped waves enjoyed q regular carni-
val. An occasional lull would inspire the
collegiAns with hope. but this would soon be
dissipated by another and stronger breeze.
Soon after midday the clouds assumed a
threatening aspect and q gale was predicted.
Ii proved true, for about three o'clock the
surface of the lake was broken up into angry
waves. and the wind did not abate till after
sunset. During the severest part Of the gale
and the accompanying rain storm the refer
ee's steam yacht made q tour Of the lake, the
waves at the time washing over the bulwarks.
1t was a lively trip. The college crews
passed most Of the day in their respective
quarters in readiness to row should the lake
calm down. Glass songs echoed forth, and
the day was made as interesting as possible.
The crowd of spectators was exceedingly
limited. owing to the unproptious state of
the weather. All of the oarsmen continue in
fine form and condition.

800 to s75. Both oarsmen had practice
spins today, pulling in first class form. They
will remain at the lake Sunday. Teemer is
anxious to get away from the lake, as he

John A. Whipper Arrested for the
Madison, Conn.,, Murder.

New HAVEN, Conn, July 8.
John A. Whipper, who was last winter
suspected of being concerned in the murder
Of Elbridge II. johnson at Madison on Dec.
End, was today arrested on a bench warrant
and thrown into jail by Deputy Sheriff Elisha
Hart. 1t will be remembered that johnson
was murdered by blows on the head with an
axe, and then drawn towards the coal nit at
which he was at work, and the body placed
so that 1t would appear that he had been ac-
cidentally burned by falling into the pit, but
IL was afterward checked up with stones. and
the blaze did not do the work desired by the
murderer. Since that time, Whipper, who
has been courting Johnson's youngest sister,
and is believed to be the only one who would
have any motive tor the act, has been shad-
owed by detectives. Johnson's missing Ian
tern was found buried beside the spot where
Wbipper claimed he slept on the night Of the
murder. The missing axe belonging to
johnson was also found in the bottom Of the
mill pond, directly opposite where Whipper
slept. The sheriff says he can prove that cn
the night Of the murder Whipper walked
from the scene Of the murder TO the mill
pond. The officials are exceedingly reticent
and refuse to answer any questions concern
ing the matter.
