PRACTICE ON THE IN a NJ ES.
A Time Row by Harvard--C oaching of
Yale Crews.

Yale Crews.
| Harvard Quarters, Gales Ferry, June
| 22.--The chief feature of the work of the
crews tonight was the time row of the
| varsity, and while yesterdays time was
not given out, it is known not to have
been fast. The approximate time Is
21:40. The crew went out at 6:45 Mr..
Storrow first went down in the launch
as far as the navy yard to ascertain II
the conditions would warrant time
row, and he decided to have one. The
men started off at 80 stroke and row.
ed we'll down to the navy yard at this
clip. By this time the wind had chang
ed to the northwest and had practically
died out The tide was also running
out slow. The crew finished with a SO
or "a stroke.
The freshman crew were the first to
go out tonight but as the water was
rough the crew rowed up and down in
front of the boat house Greenough
was in at stroke and a slow stroke was
rowed, spacing a good deal. After a
few stretches the boat was rowed to
the float, when Roberts was taken in
in place of Greenough. The same stroke
was practced during the entire day.
The freshmens prospects are very ia
vorable.
The four-oared crew padded down
the river four miles in stretches of two
miles each. Although the water was
rough and the boat half full of water,
the boat was kept OH keel, which has
been almost an impossibility bareto-
fore, and the stroke was fair. The four
cared crew went down on the east
course between the flags. The flags
have caused considerable trouble and
both Yale and Harvard have had some
of them changed.
The new oars for the varsity from
Douglas Donahue of Newburgh, N. Y,
arrived this afternoon and they appear
to be satisfactory. They will be tried
Tomorrow.

LEASE OF BOSTON & ALBANY
BILL PASSES THIRD READING IN
BAY STATE SENATE.
One for Revocation of tho Lease Pro-
vidcd the Conditions Are Violated
Lost by Only One Votc-House to Take
Up Fitchburg Lease Monday,

Boston, June 22.-The bill for the APP
prevail of the lease of the Boston and
Albany railroad to the New York Cen
trail railroad passed to a third reading
in the state senate this afternoon by a
vote of "a to 5, with four pairs. Nu-
merous attempts We're made to amend
the bill, but with the exception Of one
of slight Importance they all failed
when 1T came to vote, although that
offered by Senator Atwill of Lynn,
which provided for the revocation az
the lease by the legislature, provided
the conditions We're violated, was lost
by only one vote. 1t is probable that
this amendment will find favor in the
house and may eventually be appended
to the bill. The bill has still another
reading in the senate before it goes to
the house for approval. The house VIII
take up the discussion of the Fitch
burg lease on Monday. The principal
action in the house this morning was
the refusal to reconsider the adverse
vote Of yesterday on the bill compelling
