made at the two-mile flag. Just below the de-
serted old navy yard, aud the crews will row
down stream. The course has been shifted
slightly toward tho east, or the centre OF the
river. to give the third crew room. 1t was
tagged to-day Tho resident authorities who
have all those little details to look after had
refused to set this extra set OF flags unless tho
colleRlans paid for the work. The latter would
not do that, and the residents then changed
their minds.
Columbia has improved greatly since the ar
rival OF Walter Poet. and 1t has at lcnst q
chance for victory tomorrow. Cornell over
