THE POJGHkEEPSIE REGATTA,
Specializing as to Whether Yale Will
Participates.

ITHACA. N Y. December 4.-Now that
the indications point to a renewal of ath-
letic contests between Harvard and Yale
Cornell is wondering what effect such ac-
tion will have on her relations with Ear-
ward in general. and with her boat races in
particular.
The ithdcans would much prefer to con-
tinue the quadrangular race. and, although
no official action has been taken yet, it is
tie general sentiment among the under
graduates here that Cornell, would be the
last to object to Yale-entering the Pough-
keepSIe regatta next summer. Cornell and
Harvard have an agreement for boat races
a Well as foot ball and base bail games,
but This is wholly apart from the quad
ranSuiar races which were instituted last
July.
More interest is shown in aiIuatics here
than eS"r before at this season of the year
Very light practice will be held in the gym
rasium the remaining afternoons of the
PRESENT term. The Varsity oarsmen will
look after the new men. and. together with
MIR. Courtney. will aim to discover likely
Car'iidates- AT the beginning OF the WIN
ter term the competition will be declared
formally opened.

THREE SILVER SENATORS
Have Not Indicated What Line of Policy
They Viii Pursue.
Senator PettiErew Fnvors n Tariff
Bill Will Pass This Session.

Three of the republican silver Senators
are row in Washington. Mr.. Cannon has
been here a day cr two. Mr.. Dubois ar
rived late yesterday afternoon. and AR
Pettigrew arrived today. What policy they
are going to follow is still left to inference.
In what they say they deal in generalities
and do rot make it appear definitely
whether they going to adopt any OBJ
strucl.ve policy, but the inference war
ranted is that ALL with the possible eXcep-
ton Of Pettigrew, VIII oppose tariff legis-
lation as long as nothing is done for silver.
This is still left however, to be a matter
of inference.
What MIR. Pcttigrew Said.
Fettigrew voted for the Dingley bill at
the last session and Carter voted against
it. The republicans have counted on Garter
voting for tariff now. but they have fear
ed that Pcttigrew's desertion of the party
would be an offset.
Senator Pettigrew. like the rest, IS
very cautious about what he says They
ali appear to be waiting to confer together
before committing themselves TO anv plan
OF action. The Senator from South Da
kota said today that he guessed tho repub-
llcans better be allowed to do What they
v ant to as regards the tariff. ''fou know"
he said. Il voted for the Dingley bill. am
Ia VI vi d tdiiii tNo 1eeiStdtio' VI
anything else that the republicans can do
Will do any good.
Bu.,' he added. Il do not sea how any
bill can be passed at this session. There
Will be only about two weeks of the session
hefore the holiday recess. and then there
Will be only January and February in which
to pass the appropriation bills. = very
small opposition would defeat tariff lcsis-
lation."
Mr.. Dubois Views.
Senator Dubois says, for his part mat
he does not think the Dingiey bill can pass.
He says 1t has already been condemned,
and that it Is not worth while to waste
time upon l.. He says also that he regards
an International agreement impossible
On the coinage question. anl says tina. the
gold standard men do NOT want such an
agreement.
