AGAINST BOAT RACES WITH THE SMALLER
CoLLEGEs-wHAT HE THINKS OF THE CREW.
New Haven Feb. 10 (SpeciaD.-Robert J. Cook to-
day coached the candidates for the varsity crew. In
reference to boating, Mr. Cook said he favored tao
proposed race with the Atantas Of Passaic. OF the
race with Harvard he said OF course everything
else Is subordinate to it, Whether we win or lose
with the Atlantas is Of secondary Importance. A
defeat will be disgrace against such men. IL IS
different with race with Cornell or any other col
lege except Harvard. There is apt TO be bad blood

Cornell or the University of Pennsylvania is an e-

Concerning the dual league, Mr. Cook said " 1t has

been beaten. II is much more honorable for to
leave the field after defeat than after victory. In

ANOTHER MISLEADING LIST OF WORLDS FAIR
COMMITTEEMEN

At the meeting Of tho Worlds Fair Executive Com
mittee on Saturday Secretary Speer instructed to
send the following letter TO about twenty five Of the
committeeman named cOrporators in the Albany
bills about whose politics there has been much ques-
ton lately:
Dear Sir: Several erroneous the polt
cal affiliations the Worlds Fair Committee q One Hun
dred been Published and made ground Of charges
that the committee is partisan character. The
Executive Committee considers that character and
standing the members Of Committee One Hundred
are such that their political views have bearing
whatever upon the discharge Of the important which
IS proposed impose upon them. They nevertheless
consider that IN tho interest Of the undertaking IS wise
10 refue charge OF part!sanshp and Tor that pvs
pose to obtain far possible correct classification
IL IL IS entirely agreeable to you would facilitate
the work Of committee would advise your.
self whether you are be classified Republican, Il
Democrat OF an Independent. Very early information
upon this point IS important
The action of the Executive Committee in sending
such letter 70 certain suspects among the pro
posed c0rporators is generally looked upon as eX
tremely peculiar. The fact that the astutc politicians
