stake all right he has to be constantly look
ing round and even then there is a possibility
of getting his eye onto the wrong stake
The writer saw both contestants row over the
course on Friday. The course is an excellent
one, and Gaudaur likes it extremely well. he
probably never looked in better condition in
his life, which reflects great credit on his
trainer, AL Hamm. On Friday, when the st.
Louis man got fairly down to work, he sent
his boat through the water just as gracefully
as swan. He is a powerful rover and can
keep his boat on an even keel almost as well
as could Hanlan In his best day. He is not
fast striker, as on Friday he never seemed to
exceed about 81 to the minute. But Gaudaur
seems to have changed his style somewhat
since he last rowed here. When he sculled
over the Mckeesport course he had about as
long reach forward as one could expect to
see and he pulled his scull through the water
with remarkable power and accomplishment,
finishing well back On Friday, however, he
didn't get near SO far forward and finished his
stroke with his elbows projecting considerably
out His boat was gliding along smoothly
enough, but the least swell would have certain
ly disturbed lit sadly under the, circumstances.
The slight change of style may be acceptable to
some Judges but all theories are against it.
The more arm work there is most certainly
will the rover be the more handicapped both
in staying power and speed. Hanlan's style
compared with that of the laoe James
Renforth settles this point. Gaudaur's
natural length of reach ought to
enable him to use long, sweeping
sIIOke IN way UnaI would keep MS DOaJ al
ways in good motion. However, heis confident
of victory. but the probabilities are that after
the first mile or two his speed will wane be-
cause of the defct above named.
Teemer rowed the full length of the course
finishing at rate of 81 to the minute. He
started TO row trial on Thursday evening Just
at dusk but run into railroad tie that was
floating down the river. His trial was, there
fore, postponed and may be rowed to-day or to-
morrow. He is rowing with his usual dash,
but on Friday made the spray fly considerably.
He has plenty of speed and feels confident of
outstaying the st. Louis representative. How

Some Particular Remarks About the st.

EVERYTHING READY FOR THEIR RACE

On Friday next the sculling match between
John Teemer and ]. G. Gaudaur, for 81 600
side will take place over the McKeesport
course. The stakes are up, and it is left to
THE DISPATCH to select referee or for the
sporting editor of this paper to act himself.
The race is straight away, and the distance to
be rowed will be about four miles. The race is
undoubtedly creating considerable interest
throughout Western Pennsylvania, and, ac-
cording to present intentions, excursion trains
are to be run from various places in Eastern
Ohio to McKeesport the day of the race. The
somewhat new feature here of straight away
race ought to be an attractive one because
race of that kind affords every opportunity to
spectators on the steamers to see every inch of
the race, and a good straight away race is
worth looking at. Speaking on this point the
other day to the writer, Gaudaur said:
Il certainly think that a straiglft-2way race
is the best for everybody. know itsuits me
best, as claim that turning a stake boat
breaks a man all up. He gets out of his stroke
and has to almost stop, and it demands a very
great effort to get speed on the boat again.
Again, as soon as about mile is rowed a rover
begins to fret and worry about getting to his

LAUNCHING A CRUISER. : !,

The Philadelphia Dolly slides Into the

Crowd-One of the Best Yes.
sells of the New Navy.
PHILADELPHIA, September THE new
steel cruiser Philadelphia was Launched at
Cramps shipyards, this city, at 11:42 this
morning. Added interest was given to the
occasion by the presence of number of dis
tinguished guests, chief among them being
Mrs. Harrison, wife of the President, and
Mrs. John Wanamaker. The rumor that
President Harrison might be present served
no doubt to attract a great many people,
and when the vessel slid off the ways fully
200, 900 persons were assembled In and
around the great shipyard.
The Philadelphia is the fifth vessel OF
that name in the navy. The first two were
primitive crafts and served in the Revolu-
ton until sunk in battle. The third, the
most celebrated of the name, was con-
structed in 1899, and was frigate of 1,240
tons, fitted out with Sc guns and carrying
800 men. In 1880 she was wrecked OF
Tripoli and her commander and crew taken
prisoners. After she had been fitted out by
the enemy she was recaptured by Captain
Decatur and burned. The fourth Phila-
delphia was obtained from the merchant
service for the navy and served through the
civil war.
The new vessel is officially reckoned as
cruiser No. 4, and is the fourth in size OF
the unarmored cruisers provided for the new
navy. Unlike the vessels already con-
structed, her official test will not be rated
according to horsepower but fixed speed;
contract stipulates speed of 10 knots; un-
less this is reached large deductions will be
made in the contract price. The cruisers
length is 315 feet; beam, 4s1S feet; draught,
