spectators was the senior eight oar shells.

ers, the Harlelns and the well known
double, VanVleet and Monaghan, of Phil

terms for half mile, but 1t was plainly
evident that the Philadelphians were
merely out for practice spin, as they left
Maher and Amman, of the Harlems, after
the half as il they were tied. In senior
single sculls Juvenal, of Philadelphia,
won as he pleased. Marsh, from the same
place, was second.
Tho only foul Of the day was in the in

the Nonparels and Harlems of New York

Harlem's water and the referee disqualified
them. The remaining crews, Harlem,

PUTNEY, Sept 8-Jake Gaudsur, Of
Toronto, yesterday won the rowing cham
pionship Of the world and $500, in addl-
tion to Tho Sportsmen's cup, defeating
James H. Stansbusy, of Australia, who
recently defeated "Wag" Harding for the
championship Of the world.
The course was tho usual championship
course four miles straightaway, from
Putney to Mortlake.
After twelve false starts both men took
the water together. Stansbury had q
slight lead at Craven Steps, but soon
afterwards Gaudaur pulled up, took the
lead and maintained it to the Grab Tree,
where Stansbury stopped and appealed to
the referee, claiming q foul The latter,
however, would not allow the foul, and
Gaudaur finished twenty lengths ahead In
23O1.
Stansbury, In an interview with rep
resentative of the Associated Press, ad-
mitted that he was fairly beaten, though,
he added, he thought Gaudaur fouled him.
He added, however, that 'as the umpire
disallowed the protest, it's all right. The
race was hard one, but after l had
claimed foul did not exert myself"
"Wag" Harding, recently defeated by
Stansbury for the championship Of tho
world, was one of the professionals
present at the race, and he was inter
viewed on the subject by representative
of the Associated Press. Harding re-
marked: "There was no foul. watched
tho race as closely as possible and say
they did not touch. Stansbury went all
TO pieces after passing Hanmcrsmith
bridge"
The general opinion expressed about the
water side is that tho raco was contest
between finished sculler and nero brute
force.
Gaudaur has held the professional
championship of America since 1893 and
twice before, 1886 and 1887, he held the
same honors. Gnudaur and Stanshury
have met before The contest took place
at the regatta at Austin Tex, in lS!8,
when Stansbury was not in good form
