THE HARLEM REGATTA.
Cracks All There With EX-
ception of Ten
Eyck.

New York, May S0.-Cross winds and
some delays marked the morning row.
ing races in the annual regatta Of the
Harlem Regatta ssociation held on the
Harlem river, one mile course. In one
heat of the junior Fights it took more
than half an hour to get the men in
line. Everything was in good shape,
however, in the afternoon when the
races were rowed up stream. There
were several protests during the day
due to unfortunate circumstances rather
than to any ones fault. The day was
good one, on the whole, for racing,
and the honors were fairly well divided
among New York and out of town
clubs. The Philadelphians had prac-
tical walkovers in single singles and
senior fours
The final race of the junior Fights,
with the Weld Of Cambridge, New York
A. c., Union of New York and Columbia
University freshmen, will live long in
the memory of rowing enthusiasts. The
Unions were not an important factor
at any stage, and after the first eighth
it settled down to contest between
the three other crews with the New
Yorks getting a lead of half length at
the half, the Weld and Columbus on
even terms. The Yields unfortunately
lost their rudder, but an even course
was kept, the New YoPks winning by
about a boat length over the Cam
bridge boys, with the Columbia fresh
men third.
The crack Knickerbocker Athletic
Clubs Intermediates had a practical
walkover in the intermediate four
cared gig race. The only crew against
them at the start was the Nonpareil of
New York, who dropped out at the
half In senior doubles. the Phlladel-
phia cracks, JuvenaI and Monaghan,
won as they pleased over the New
York Athletic and Nonpareil crews.
