Their Last Spin.
Not within eight years has such an
immense crowd filled the streets of this
city on the night previous to the an
nual Yale Harvard boat race as is here
tonight. At7 o'clock tonight the var
Sity crews took their last spin and the
practice season of 1898 passed into
history. OF course, the tnal pull was
short and comparatively unimpOrtant
for both Fights. The Yale launch, with
Bob Cook and John HartweII in the
Prov, followed the Yale oarsmen and
coached an hour on starting the boat
effectively. A pull of half a mile
brought the Yale men back to their
quarters after the spin, and the shell
was taken from the water for the last
time before the race. Harvard's last
practice was almost identical with
Yale's. Keyes and Perkins were close

relative to starting the boat.
Bob Cook has been figuring on the
mechanical disadvantage OF certain
part of the Yale rigging and the con-
tempt ted removal of the Objectionable
portion was made reality before the
afternoon practice of the oarsmen today.
That the boats speed was ma
teriaIiy increased by the change is
a source of cOngratulation among
the Yale coaches tonight. A conference
of the Yale and Harvard aquatic adj
visers took place tonight, and the time
at which the race will be held. if it Is
postponed, was settled upon. The hour,
in case the conditions are unfavorable
at IL O'Clock, is definitely placed
at $50 O'Clock in the even
ing. In case of postponement
the race will be rowed up stream, con-
trary TO the morning arrangements.
Tide and wind will unquestionably be
more advantageous for record break
ing at $50 than at IL a. M, ana the
chances tonight appear trifle in favor

says that Harvey had roll as biz as

going TO die, Harvey took all the papers
about him and destroyed them, thus

THE LAKE ROUTE.

1t seems that j. j. HILL will have in
operation next year a daily line of
steamers plying between Duluth and
Buffalo. Each boat is to make the dis
lance in fifty hours. 1t is reported that
ne is about to contract with firm for
four more steel ships of 40 feet leugth.
All the boats are to be fitted most ele-
gantly for passenger traffic, and they
are also to carry freight. The evident
intention of Mr.. HILL is to make this
the popular summer route between the
Northwest and the East, and everybody
believes that he will accomplish his
end.
1t is within the power OF such line
to put an end, during eight months of
the year. to high traffic rates between
Northwestern points and New York,
and that the power will be exercised
everybody up this way is prepared to
believe. OF course, the line could not
operate all the year round. but its sea-
sou would be about three-quarters of
the year, and include the months when
the great majority of people do their
travelling. The cheap rate which the
line could maintain would be a great
stimulus to travel between the East and
Northwest. st. Paul and every North
western point will reap an advantage
from it which it is difficult to estimate.
The trip from here to New York city
would be about two days and half,
and the fare would be little more than
half that of railroad ride all the way.
But the greatest gain would be in
freight traffic. The rate could be less
than one-tenth that by freight trains.
and the gain in time of transportation
would be anywhere from five to ten
days.
As understood. the proposition is to
run these boats on as strict schedule
time as trains, and this is one of the
winning features of the project, They
are TO be run in connection with the
trains of the Great Northern, and will
be as regular in their operations. Other
boats may be as elegantly fitted as
these, but the irregularlty of their GO
ing and coming tends to keep down
their popularity.
After all, the Great Lakes are to be-
come the medium whereby the rapacity
OF railroads may be held in check; and
Mr.. HILL is the first TO grasp the situa-
ton and evolve plan of making eff
fective use of the means.

He Promises To lnplicate High
Quebec Officials.
BosToN, June 29.-Elias Mailloux, a
Canadian charged with forgery, and
formerly accountant of the public works
department for the province of Quebec,
was arrested yesterday at Salem. This
arrest was very important one, and
will bring to light the facts of the
forgeries perpetrated on the province
of Quebec government in June. 1892,
since which time the Canadian author
tiles have been doing their best to
capture Mailloux, but without success.
Mailloux said in conversation today:
II am implicated in the province of
Quebec f0rgeries and know that am
wanted in connection with the $1,000
check cashed by the Union Bank OF
Quebec. Still, am not the forger. He
is still at large in Quebec, carrying on
hissdangerous games. For all that, l
have been arrested and l am willing to
go back to Canada and tell all know,
which will compromise many persons,
more particularly those who have been
the cause of my downfall. Why, Mail
enfont, who forced me to fly, placed me
OH schooner and made sure of my
passage TO South America and contin-
ued to keep me travelling, was the real
culprit. At the same time he handed
me revolver and told me to blow
my brains out rather than be arrested.
The fellow then promised that my name
would not be mixed up with the trial
and in few months | could return
home to Canada and my wife. My mind
is easier than it has been for single
moment during the past year, and when
| am taken before Judge Chambers l
will tell all, with much to astonish the
world. Why, even before the forgery
cases and the change of government,
passed 100000 worth of checks through
my hands as accountant of the public
works department. That was minis
