Although a few of the ladies on the
grand stand and lawn this afternoon
wore Winnipeg favors, sentiment and
friendship were all for New. The Win
nlpegs were an eighth of a length
ahead at the end of Temple island,
rowing forty strokes to the minute;
as against thirty-seven for New They
then drew out and got a lead of
length The half-mile stake was reach
ed in three minutes and thirty-four
seconds. When beyond Fawley court
boat house, New was even with the
Winnipegs. AT the three-quarter
stake, which was reached in four
minutes twelve second, the Winnipegs
were half length behind, and from
that point although they spurted
grandly and decreased the lead of New
to three or four feet, they could never
catch the OXonians, who finished Win
ners by length, in the record time of
seven minutes and thirty-three sec
onds.
The steering of the Winnipegs was
decidedly better than yesterday, and
they were less exhausted than their
rivals. AT the finish the Winnipegs
proposed three cheers for New college;
the men in the New boat heartily re-
sponded, and the cheer was caught
up on shore, after which the Winni-
pegs were heartily cheered in return.
The captain OF the Winnipegs said 20
the correspondent of the Associated
Press, Immediately after the race:
1T was the best race we ever rowed,
and as it is our first experience on the
Henley course we ought to be salts
fed with having rowed equal to the
old record. The only trouble was that
our rivals rOWed four seconds better
than the record. We were beaten by
better crew. We tried our best at
the finish, but could not negotiate. We
were pretty well pumped out in our
way, but we stayed the course
