The Crew VIII Have Their Usual
 Quarters = Bob Will Stay With
 Them-A Scarcity or Seats on the
 Observation TTain-Yale Ball Games TO.Day. !
 The Yale crew will make their quarters in New London this year with Captain and Mrs. Latham Brown as usual. The Yale boat house there is being enlarged, and will have new roof and be repaint- ed; the float also will be heightened and Q new spar be placed in it. The quarters will probably be done by the 10th of the present month.
 Box Cook will stay with the crew now
 with the exception of day or so until the race. It is very necessary for him to stay as a crew of big men is much more difficult to teach than one composed of smaller men. The men are strong enough,
 but have not yet got the stroke down to a machine like piece of work. =
 In regard to the report that there are no seats on the observation train for sale and no chance of getting any, the Yale man agement says that year ago before the race President Townsend applied for Gne 1raln TOT tne Tace oI 1oo1, ProVloeo the race be rowed in New London. At
 that time, before the race of 1890. eleven
 cars for the race of 1891 had been already sold, President Townsend immediately en-
 gagged the rest, twenty three in number When it came to making the agreement
 with Harvard the cars had ito
 be shared with them, :l.so HAr-
 yard was given eleven and Yale
 kept the remaining twelve for herself. It
 was the intention of the management to
 have no public sale and thus avoid specu- lation. For two years past there has been no public advertised sale. These cars were sold or applied for, as has been done ever since the train has been sold, that is for
 scarcity of seats among Yale people this
 year is due to the fact that eleven cars
 have been given to Harvard, as heretofore
 they have only had those cars which
 they could z. obtain from the rail-
 road, sometimes only one or two
 in number. The railroad positively re- fuses to allow more cars or mora people to car. There may possibly be chance to get a few scattering seats 2 few days be- fore the race. The New London people are very much amused over this trouble, and say the Yale management is now get ting the blame which heretofore has been
 laid to them. The Yale Varsity nine left on the 7:05 train last night for New York, stopping over night at the Fifth Avenue hotel and going out to Princeton in the morning. Quite a delegation of Yale men will be present at the game to yell for Yale.
 The freshman nine went off last night at
 o'clock bound for Andover, Mass, where
 they play Phillips Andover academy
 A Blooming Prospect.
 The creditors of the Hubbard & Farmer, private banking concern of Hartford, which failed three years ago are now cheered by the bloming prospect that they will get ten per cent. out of the wreck. DEATH AT THE HOSPITAL. The Sad Return Home of a Hus- band.
