ON LAND AND WATER.
Courtney Again Defeated-Runnfng On
The Eastern Tracks.

ALBANY, October 15.-The race between
Hanlan and Lee and Courtney and Conley
wal rowed this afternoon. Shortly after
4 O'Clock the word to start was given, and
Hanlan and Lee caught the water and sent
their shell half a length to the front and
gradually increased their lead with a steady
38-stroke, Courtney and Conley pulling
evenly. In this order they continued for
the first quarter of a mile, Hanlan and Lee
gradually increasing their lead until three
fourths OF a length was gained. Then Court
ney md Conley settled. down to steady
work and the crews kept the same relative
distance to the half mile. From this on to
the th~ree-quarters 10Th crews seemed to be
pulling FOR all they were worth. At
THE END OF THE FIRST MILE
Hanlan and Lee gradually increased the
gap. Hanlan smiled at Courtney's rowing
at the mile, and he and Lee made the turn
| first with apparent ease. Courtney and
Conley steered wildly, and took Hanlan
and Lees water; they zigzagged all over the
course from the mile to the turn, which
and steadily, otter making the turn, but
their opponents won easily by three lengths
in 1915. Courtney and Conley came in
fifteen seconds later. On entering on the
last mile, Hanlan and Lee had the race
well in hand, and began to take things
| cody with their open length between them
and Courtney, and Conley, giving the latter
their wash. When two and a half miles
were completed, Hanlan and Lee rested a
few seconds, and again upon entering the
last length, when Courtney and Conley had
nearly reached their stern. Hanlan and
Lee settled down to work, and with a
dozen strokes sent their shell our lengths
in the lead, but on stacking up at the finish
won by only three lengths. Hanlan was
hailed with great enthusiasm.
