HOPES OF THE vEsPER oARsMEN FOR
SUCCESS ABROAD-THEIR RECORDS.

Edward Hanlan Ten EycK's refusal at the last
moment to accompany the American oarsmen TO
Paris caused keen disappointment In rowing circles
all over the country. In the minds of many people
uninitated into the mysteries Of rowing II has also
created the impression that this country will be
poorly represented in the international races at
Paris. This impression. fortunately. is not well
grounded. OF course. the absence of Ten Eyck In
the single SOULS is great loss. but it does not
weaken the chances of the Americans TO win the
eight cared and the four Dared shell races. and
probably not the double SOULS. because it is
hardly likely that Ten Eyck would have rowed in
any of these if he had gone abroad with
them
To somewhat reassure the public that the absence
of Ten Eyck has not precuded the possibility Of the
Americans being victorious in any of the inter-
national races. except perhaps the single SOULS IL
can be said that, in the opinion of the rowing
world. the who sailed Wednesday consti-
tuted the best general representatives of rowing
talent in this country that could be gathered.
The Vesper eight that went from the Quaker
City has never been defeated, and it Is purely
American from bow to stern Every member Of 1t
Is Simon pure amateur. and he will do everything
In his power to carry the Stars and Stripes to vic
tory. Whether the crew succeeds In winning at
Paris not it will always be famous in the annals
of rowing from its past victories Therefore
the rowing fraternity Of the country feels justified
In expecting these sturdy to be equally
successful With Americans in other branches of
athletics abroad this year
Each member of the famous Vesper eight has an
interesting history oarsman The makeup of
the crew and the age. weight and height of each
member are as follows:

that IL they wished to endanger their own lives

We are the roads all the time and we know
this. Some of our men have done good service
recently in chasing automobiles. The owners
Of the autOcars have found as the scorchers
did that the bicycle policeman knew speed when
he saw it, and that he possessed enough of ii to
stop it in others. We all ride the same make Of

John Lake, G. W. Brown and ]. ]. ellis, all
roundsmen. Brooklyn also has a bicycle squad
under the joint command of John ]. Collins and
w. F. Boeltler. The present force in Brooklyn
consists of twenty-five men, nearly double the
number of a year ago, yet in the opinion of
those who ought to know not half large enough
TO cover properly the large territory across the
Bridge which they are expected to look after.
More men could be used on the popular boule-
wards and wheelways, especially on Saturdays,
Sundays and holidays. Both Collins and Boeltler
admit that their force should be larger.
The New-York squad took headquarters at
No. 1876 Broadway on June 16 1891 the body
Of men at that time numbering forty-eight.
Now the force numbers ninety, consisting of
four sergeants, four roundsmen, eighty patrol
men and two specials. Thomas Mccormick is
the head of the force in this borough. He is
more than fifty years old, but rides a bicycle

Persons who know well the fact that ward

rejoice that such politics is said to have
played little part in the organization of the
bicycle police squad. Possibly there are some
policemen who look upon Dick Croker as the
greatest man in the metropolis OF America but
the patron saint of the bicycle policemen is
General Avery d. Andrews. 1t was General
Andrews an enthusiastic wheelman himself,
who originally. member OF the Police Board
of this city, suggested the bicycle squad, de-

excellent service for several years. 1t has been

One of the most daring feats performed by a
member of the squad fell to Kavanagh. He
stopped runaway in driving rainstOrm in

means. In Riverside Drive, a few days later.
Kavanagh tried to stop a runaway team, and

CONDITION OF THE ROADS.

The reports received at the headquarters of the
League of American Wheelmen show that the roads
are as general thing in excellent condition With
clear weather to-day the OutpouTing of riders Of
the wheel promises to be large. According to the
reports sent in, all the main roads of Queens and
Nassau counties are in excellent condition: the rain

all repairs in good shape. These roads cover
the territory from Long Island City and Brooklyn
to Amtyville the South Shore; in the central
section. Farmingdale Hicksville and Cold Spring
The road through Islip and Oakdale is fine and the
improved sidepath through Patchogue and Brook
haven to Moriches is excellent riding. There is
a side and edge path through to Quogue. and from
Cluo6ue 10 East QuOgue the road is in first class
shape as Is also the sidepath. Between Quogue and
Good Ground the riding is fair with the exception
OF a short stretch where there is an edgepath
which is very good. The new sidepath the
Shlnnecock Hills TO Southampton is being used ex-
tenslVely by Wheelmen. II affords excellent view
all around, and the scene is delightful The winding

Is somewhat narrow and is only In fair condition
