CREW OUTLOOK AT YALE.
Training to Begin With the Opening
of College

! Training to Begin With the Opening
of College.
When Yale opens once more on the
close of the Christmas holidays, the at
tention of the athletic leaders will be
centred for the most part upon the cam
didates for next years crew, and act
i've work in the rowing tank will be
commenced at once. The outlook for a
strong crew Is exceptionally bright.
Five of vast years crew are in college,
and will most of them row. They are:
Stroke, Williams; No. Z. Niedecken
No. g. Captain Allen; No. 5, Brown;
No. 2. Wickes. Brown, 1t is thought
will not now on account Of having to
devote a large part Of his time to cap
tanning the football team.
If Brown withdraws, seats Nos. 3, 4,
S and bow will be vacant. Greenleaf,
Griswold and Flint sat in these STATS
last year. Captain Hooker, Blagden,
Kunzig, and Swan of last years fresh
man crew ought to make good bids for
thes vacancies. The position of cox
swain in the varsity boat will also be
vacant.
THE outlook for a good freshman
crew is exceedingly unprOmising, as
only twenty men answered Captain AL
lens call for fall candidates. At the
annual fall regatta only two freshman
crews turned out, whereas five or six
have usually been formed. 1T Is under
stood that Sharpe of last years fresh
man eight has been asked by Captain
Brown to give up rowing and contine
his atheletic work to football.
A rowing conference will be held at
Cambridge in the near future between
Captain Allen and Captain Higglnson
of the Harvard crew. Thris conference
will be for the purpose of settling the
details Of the annual race on the
Thames. Harvard aud Yale take turns
managing the details of the big race
and it is the Crinson's turn this year.
The subject of sending 81 formal chal-
lenge to Cornell will probaly come UP
at this conference. Yale men would
like to have the Ithacans enter the
race at New London in order that an
annual Intercollegiate championship
may be decided. 1t is rumored, how
ever. that Cornell would decline such
a challenge

a. great feat Saturday evening. The

At midnight Saturday they started a
schedule of fifty-one extra trains to go
over the road, as well as the regular
trains. On Monday the rails We're
kent hot and the blockade was raised

The Trusts Upheld-New Jersey SUI
preme Court Renders an Interesting
DecisfOn.
NEW YORK. June 1.-The New Jersey
supreme court has rendered a decision, said
to be the first in this country, in favor OF
a trust The decision was given in a suit
against the New York Trap Rock company
against Brown & Fleming. About two
years ago there was brisk competition
between the rival firms and owners of quar-
ries and a trust was formed. Several of the
quarries were closed and prices were ad-
vanced.
part Of the agreement was that only tn.
agent of the trust could sell the stone, and
a penalty of $1,000 was prescribed for VIOLA
ting this clause of the contract. There was
some dissatisfaction, and Brown & Fleming
accepted an order for large quantity of
stone The trust demanded the 5000, but
the firm refused to pay the forfeit, and de-
cided to oppose the trust. The company
instituted suit for the amount of the pen
atty. Brown & Flemming fled a demurrer,
setting forth that by the declaration of the
plaintiff the company admitted it was a
trust, that it was an illegal combination
formed for the purpose of destroying COM
petition and to control the prices Of trap
rock.
The supreme court has given decision
overriding the demurres1 The court holds
