New London, Conn, June 27.-The
contest between the Harvard and Yale
varsity crews, which comes off on the
Thames late tomorrow afternoon, is
the one topic of conversation tonight.
The Harvard men are considered to
be victims of hard luck. For a month
previous to the arrival of the crew
at cIew London, rowing matters at
Harvard had been completely given up
owing to the epidemic Of tonsolitis
prevalent among the oarSmen on the
Charles river. The crew, however, re-
covered quickly and by hard work
have regained all they had lost. They
have since improved every day. Their
stroke is long with plenty of power in
II, and the oarsmen have been pulling
from "a to SO. 1t is not an essentially
different stroke from that used by
Yale both being a modification of the
English stroke. The Harvard crew sits
straighter and swings well forward
from the hips before sliding on the
recover, while their leg drive is not
so snappy, and is started with the body
just a bit beyond the perpendicular.
Harvard finishes with bodies erect and
with hands drawn into the chest, while
the Yale finish with bodies slightly for
ward and hands several inches out
from the body. The Yale stroke is
better developed in some ways. The
Harvard's oars do not take the water
as Clearly as Yale's, and the blades
are not brought out on the recovery
very evenly.
The Harvard Crew.
The men who sit in the Harvard
boat are all oarsmen of some expert
ence, though Billiard and Hennessy
rod
a varsity race. The membership of
the crew as now made up includes:

 Two more suits were served on the city last night by Sheriff Carmody. One was for Patrick Horan. through Attorney Lowe, for $500.

 Sheriff Carmody also served papers on the board of selectmen in & suit against the town for $500 for Frank P. Barrows, through Attorney Lowe. The allegations are that on August 21 the highway between Waterbury and Thomaston near the resi- dence of N. P. Laurenson was out of re- pair. trench had been dug and no lights had been left there to protect travel lers. Barrows' horse and wagon went into the ditch and much damage resulted.

Under such conditions can the taxpayers anticipate anything very lattering in regard to fu- ture taxation?

NUMBER TWO.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 I have prepared table showing about how much it would require to run the town, providing the two governments were run separately. Nobody doubts that under the consolidation scheme, the town would be burdened with at least twenty mills tax. The editor of the Republican boldly states that local tax conditions is wrong and un- just, carrying the idea that if the city suc- ceeds in substituting the proposed charter in place of the existing charter, the city officials would arrange the amount to be paid by the "surburban" taxpayer to suit their own particular ideas. Of course the outsiders would be at their mercy, and would be compelled to suffer the dictates of the city, without any possibility of redress. The following table will explain the condition of affairs at the present time. particularly on the part of the town. have made estimates based on expenses incurred by other towns in Connecticut, and it is apparent that the tax rate would not exceed 4 mills. the same that has been paid on the average for the past ten years.
