sion. General Shafter has been communi-
Gated with by Secretary Alger and asked to

of the objectio which would be raised to
such practice by the health authorities
Secretary Alger. however, has given direc-
tons for the proper marking by suitable
means of the graves of those who fall, so
that during the winter season, If their
friends wish It. they may be disinterred and
returned to the United States. A request of

iy placid and the absence of tides gives the
coaches less to grumble about. There is no
possibility of advantage to any one crew
except that possessed by the men them
selves.
This is an old regatta town. and holds
many experts in Craftsmanship These men
look for close contests in both races The
men are unusually good form, with one or
TWO exceptions, including Dalzell, in the
Cornell boat, and Gardner in that of Penn
sylvania. DalzeI has been feeling "off'
since the New London races and has been
relieved by Sweetman on two occasions for
practice Courtney, however. says he can
substitute the whole eight and do just rs
good work as ever" He prides himself on
the form Of his substitutes. Gardner is the
new Pennsylvania stroke, and replaces
Howell, with whom Coach Ward disagreed
as to methods. He is a good man, but
changes in the position of stroke are in
variably deprecated
Considerable speculation is heard about
the hotels as to Wisconsin's crew, which
Anoy ODay has raid are in condition to
walk away with the trophy Friday. These
men will arrive late this afternoon and will
be welcomed and escorted to their quarters
at the head of the lake. They will be
watched carefully, and not little anx-
iously, when they first put out for practice.
All the coaches had crews out this morning

WELLINGTON REPUDIATES
Maryland Senator Denies an Alleged Inter

He Says He FnvOrs the Annexation Of
Hawaii and President Mckin-

Special Dispatch to The Evening STAR
BALTIMORE. Md, June Ex-senator
George L. Wellington, who is at the Car
rollton Hotel, was very indignant this
morning over the publication of an alleged
interview with him, which appeared stimuli
taneously in the New York World and the
Baltimore American. Senator Wellington
said to The Star correspondent:
THE publication is an outrage, and
never gave utterance to such sentiments
as are attributed to me, but what l did say
was quite to the contrary effect. While
was opposed to the war, l have voted to
sustain the administration ever since hos
tilities began, and shall continue to do SO.
Before the war 1 was opposed to the an
nexation of the Hawaiian Islands, but now
l am supporting that measure as necessary
to the prosecution of the war l never
said that the army ought to be recalled
from Cuba On the contrary, have re-
peatedly said that the war in that island
should be pushed with all the power and
force of the government as rapidly as pos
sibe.
to be directed to capitulate. On the CONTRA
ry l have all the time favored sending him
whatever force he might need to complete
lis magnificent work in the far east.
The whole interview is outrageous
attempt to impute to me sentiments not
only never have held. but l have never
given utterance to anything to warrant
such a publication. The alleged interview,
appearing it did, was no doubt inspired
by those who wish to injure me at home.
They are driven to desperation i'll their de-
sire to prevent my election chairman of
the republican state committee, which
will take place on Thursday, but they will
fail to attain their object, for 1 shall be
elected by large majority.
II wish it distinctly understood that l am
in accord with the policy of the administra-
statements to the contrary are false inven-
tionS by my enemies.

that the only remedy seems to be with the

In his comment on the complaint, Com
missioner Wight said: Complaints have
occasionally been made in regard to this

ciently numerous to warrant the Commits
sioners in taking any steps against Mr.
