Carnival matters go merrily on, new
names appearing Oh the list OF famous
entries every day. A letter from 5. L.
Jones and Mr.. Morrison, the committee
sent East to secure athletes for the vari-
DuS events, was received yesterday.
They say that the Cornell-Pcnnsylvania
race was literally snatched from Syra-
cuse, and that the papers of that city
had already announced the race to come
off in that place. Both the committees
signed the agreement subject to the ap-
proval of the Carnival association. The
affair is receiving much comment from
Eastern college men, who look upon 1t
as quite a radical break i'll the conYen-
tIonal monotOny of college cnStom. Inc
criticism is cOmmendatOry. The favor
able attitude of President SchuIman, OF
Cornell, and Mr.. Morrison's influence
with Woodruff, the coacher for PennSyl-
Vania, had much to do with landing the
prize.
The crews will probably bring two
boats each. Each crew will bring the
eight men, two substitutes, coach, cox
swain, commodore of navy, and possibly
a cook or trainer. They insist that the
boats of the two crews shall not be III
the same car. If possible, also, it is de-
sired that no boats except those for the
press and referee be allowed to follow
the race. Both crews are having alumi-
mum shells made in Philadelphia. Ii
they prove satisfactory on trial the race
will be made in them. the first in the
history of boat racing. If not up to eX-
pectations paper boats will be used.
MIR Jones says of his visit to the boat
house of GallanOugh on the Schuylklll:
II saw one of these boats now i'll proc
eSs of building, and they look to me to
be the COMING boat. Galanough claims
great things for them in singles, and a
speed of ten seconds to the mile over
cedar or paper boats"
