CAMBRIDGE WINS.
The Victor In Annual Boat Race
With Harvard.

Putney, Eng, March 31-The fifty
seventh annual boat race between Cam
bridge and Oxford was rowed today
over the usual course from Putney to
Mortlake. Cambridge won most easily
in is minutes 4? seconds, official time,
oxford being much distressed and about
twenty lengths behind at the finish.
The race was favored by magnificent
weather. The bright sunshine attracted
immense crowds, which, from an early
hour, congregated along the course, on
steamers, in boats, on the bridges, and
on the buildings overlooking the scene.
Every point of vantage was crowded in
spite of the general belief that it would
be a one-sided contest. The dark blues,
as challengers, We're the first to take
the water, at 1870 p. M, and were loudly
cheered. They were quickly followed
by the favorites, Cambridge. whose re-
ceptiOn was very enthusiastic.
The tide was quite strong, and con-
siderable difficulty was experienced in
getting the boats into position.
oxford won the toss and chose the
Surrey station.
Colonel william, who umpired Yale
and Cornell at Henley, acted in the
same capacity today for Oxford and
Cambridge. He effected a capital start.
The two boats took up their positions
at 100 and started at 1913.
The light blues Immediately showed
to the front, rowing with rare power
and in splendid form.
At the Du6eshead they were a clear
quarter of a length ahead.
In the first minute the Cantabs rowed
a stroke of Al and Oxford rowed 40 to
the minute. At Waldens, about one
mile from the start, Cambridge was
two lengths ahead.
Passing the crab tree, Cambridge was
IA seconds ahead, and off Saccharine
works the light blues were leading by
six lengths.
At Hammersmith bridge, about a mile
and three-quarterS from the start, the
lead of Cambridge had been reduced
to five lengths.
But the light blues maintained this
lead. At the Lead mills, they were
rowing So to Oxford's 81
At the Doves, about one mile and
seven eighthS from the start, the lead
of Cambridge had been reduced to four
lengths; but at Chiswick church, about
two miles and three-quarters from the
start, the race had developed into moth
ing more than a procession.
AS the Cambridge boat passed Thorn
eycrofts, nearing the three mile post,
the light blues led by ten lengths.
Oxford then began to show signs of
distress, and at the Devonshire mead
ows, over three miles from the start,
eleven lengths separated the two boats.
At Barnes bridge, about three and
one-half miles from the starting place,
Cambridge was 40 lengths ahead.
Cambridge finished very fresh, and
padded past the stake boat at Mort
lake the easiest of winners.
Oxford. however, came in for a full
share of the cheering.
The Oxonians stuck gamely to their
work, but the stroke set them early in
the contest proved a great deal too
much for some of the men in their boat.

FEAR BANKRUPTCY.
Owners of Lost La Bourgogne Wants
Suits Stopped.

New York March 31-The Compagnie
Generate Transatlantique (the French
menced proceedings in the United
States district court to limit it's liza
bility and to restrain by injunction the
numerous actions that have been
brought in various parts Of the United
States to recover damages for loss of
life and other injuries growing out of
the disaster to the steamship La Bour-
gogne, in 1888
The contention is that the officers of
La Bourgogne were themselves blame
less for the collision with the Crom-
artyshire. and that there is no Just
cause for action. If there were, how
ever, it is cOntended, the liability of the
company is limited to the value of the
ship and her freight, which were lost.
Judge Addison Brown signed injunc-
tiOns against the suits pending, and
granted the relief asked for.
The suits which are pending against
the company involve an amount ag
gregating over 81, $50, 600.
