Cornell,s Henley Crew Makes a Great
Showing in Early Practice.

StsO AZ 6CtNCCa
ITACA. May %. 1S95.-Yesterday after
noon the Henley crew was able to get
a trial spin on the lake, the first since
Saturday. The present weather has been
a severe handicap Upon the work of the
crew on account of a stiff north wind
which makes it impossible for shell to
live on the rough water. Yesterday,
o'clock. and at five o'clock Coach Court
ney had the Henley Varsity and Fresh
men crews out on the lake. A few scraps
were INDUCED in, the Henley crew being
the winner in each case, the Varsity
second and the Freshmen third. There
has been no change in the makeup of
the crew since the official list was given
out.
AT present the men are rowing with
short sleeves. In the race with the Eng
fish crews. the Henley regulations call
handicap to the boys when they arrive
on the other side. but it is expected
that after a weeks practice they will
Iecome accustomed to it, and their work
7eIll be up to the standard.
.ol The best time that Cornell-Henley
rev has made on the lake is 6:57. This
as a little over five seconds above the
record time for the Henley course, which
lis 6:51. Last year the Leander Club won
the race in 7:12.
TCommodore Hastings left Ithaca Mon
day night for Philadelphia to complete
arrangements for the Pennsylvania-Cor-
nell Freshmen race. to be held on Cay

WILL SUE HIS WIFE.
Ganley Says She Got His Property
and Then Threw Him Out.

Counselor John I. Weller, of Hoboken,
will in a few days bring suit in the
Court of Chancery, on behalf of John
Ganley, an invalid now confined in st.
Mary's Hospital, to recover several
thousand dollars worth of valuable prop
erty from Ganley's wife. Ganley was at
one time a prosperous contractor and a
prominent politician, and held several
offices at different times in the north
ern end of the county. At the time his
health failed he was reputed to be
quite wealthy. Mrs. Ganley lives with
her two sons, William and Thomas, in
Union Hill, in grand style. She was
married to Ganley February 16, 1865, and
for twenty-five years they lived together
apparently happy.
One election day several years ago, at
the Weehawken polls, Ganley got into
a fight with Patrick Timmony, and bad
ly thrashed him, so that Timmony was
weeks afterwards. When Timmony re-
covered he threatened II sue Ganley for
damages. and Ganiey, fearing that he

transferred the property to the Gan,
leyS, Ganley claims hlHkeau never palu
him the 81 1000. The property, which con-
sists Of several houses in the business
section of Hoboken. is in Mrs. Ganley's
possession, and she has been deriving a
comfortable income from it.
AS soon as she became possessor Of
the property, Ganley claims she i'll
treated him. and ordered him out Of the
house. He was taken sick shortly af-
terward. and but for the kindness OF
friends would have starved to death.
Under the care of hospital authorities
Ganley greatly recovered, and will be
able to start his suit in a few days.
