hard time keeping him in control.
At Park place the messenger and the
mail were taken off. and at the foot
of the station steps the drunken man
insisted on giving his attention to the

the grand result was hardly doubtful
unless Yale could win the half mile run,
In which event the whole contest would
have been a tie.
The half mile run was the last event
to be decided. Greenhow was again an
easy winner. The best Morgan, Yales
representative, could do, was to finish
third.
BY winning the half mile run oxford
secured the necessary number of firsts

Indications that the Tariff Confer.
ence Is Almost Over.
(py Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON. July 16.-Soon after
the tariff conference adjourned at noon
to-day three important features were
developed.
First, the Louisiana and Texas dele
cations in Congress went into secret
caucus for the purpose of adopting a
plan to be presented to the conferrees
for the immediate abrogation of the
treaty with Hawaii.
Second. 1t was made evident that a
tariff report was not far off, as 1t was
given out that the Republican members
would be called in tomorrow.
Finally. strong feeling was devel-
oped among the Republican conferrees
of the House to decline to enter the
conference at this late day. on the
ground that it was an empty formality.

The crowd at this point took up what
