CREWS STILL WORKING.

Gales Ferry, June 13.-Yale's crew practice this morning was near that of Harvard on the Thames, so the coaches had an opportunity of sizing up the relative form of the two boats. From the Yale launch Harvard's work appeared very smooth, though the stroke was slow, apparently about 2S or % to the minute. The Crimson crew seemed to make large spacing Their catch was quick and they pulled up hard. Altogether, their method ap- peared quite different from that of the Yale men. Another change was made in the Yale boat this morning, Rumsey being put at No 5, with Johnson at No 3 and Mitchell at bow. Waterman took Rumsey's place in the four-oar. The practice lasted only about twenty minutes, the boat going over a half mile stretch toward the Harvard quarters. The time was not fast, and the showing in form was no better than yesterday, the coaches still finding fault with the stopping of the boat be- tween strokes. The freshmen were out for three-quarters of an hour in the big shell and also worked in pairs. Adams and Cross were back in the eight, replacing Earle and Miller, who were transferred to the four-oar. Ex- aminations are still going on.

Charged With Receiving Installments
 From Stevedoring Company.
 Manila, June 13.-The trial of H. w. Happle, port steward of the commis- sary department, charged with receiv- ing, in monthly instalments, money from stevedoring company, began to- day. The defense is that the money received was salary for extra services. The alleged transactions appear on the companys books, and it is claimed that Happle figures under an assumed name.
 D. M. Carman, the former lCalifor- nian, who was arrested in February last on the charge, of furnishing sup plies to aid the insurgents, but whose prosecution was abandoned last month, is going to the United States shortly, and has asked for the return of $10,- 900 paid as security, for his appearance when summoned for trial. General Macarthur has declined to order the return of the money, but, probably, it will be returned after the insurrection is ended.
 General Sumner has returned here and has reported to General Wade the failure of the negotiations for the surrender of Cailles, the insurgent leader in Laguna province. The Fili- pino apparently believes he can hold out, now that the rainy season has be- gun.
 Disappointment, is felt here at the backward conditions Sin southern Lu- zon. Some insurgent camps have been discovered and destroyed. Lieutenant Cowen, with a detachment of fifty men, killed five insurgents near Jov- elar.

MADE NO RETURNS.

Berlin, June 13.-Further reliable +news about the death of Louis Stern. the former United States commercial agent at Pamberg, Bavaria, who com- mitted suicide, June 10, by shooting himself, shows he had not made any re- turns to the state department during the last eighteen months. But, if he owes money to the United States it is only small amount. On the other hand, number of people in the Unit ed States, for whom Stern had collect~ ed estates to this country have entered complaints that he has not remitted the amounts collected. Judgment for 2,000 marks against Stern was recently ren- dered by the Bamberg court and the deceased committed suicide the very; day the 2,O00 marks was due. Stern had accepted fine commercial posi- ton at Bamberg but the firm nullified the arrangement when it learned of the Judgment.

BRITISH DESTROYER VIPER.

London, June 13.-The Naval and Military Record, commenting on the three Weeks'd trial of fdtheoBritish 7tur- bine tdrpedof boat destroyer Viper, which was conducted upnder regular service conditions and Curing which she developed speed of 301a knots and was pronounced capable of doing 31, says her coal consumption was enor- nous at top speed, which, the paper adds, initiates against the plan which the Dover-Calais company is now ma- turing, to build two turbine, channel steamers and reduce the time of cross ing between England and France to thirty-fye minutes. The Viper's trial was pronounced to be completely satis- factory. Although she,was handled by an inexperienced crew, she showed a remarkable immunity from breaking down. The Viper was steady in all weathers.

HARVARD IS PRAcTICING.

Harvard Crew Quarters, Red Top, Conn, June 13.-On account of exam nations, Harvard's practice was short this morning. The varsity went up river a half mile and then came down for about mile stretch, not rowing hart at any time. The crew was not in the best of form and the boat was more unsteady than the coaches wish ed. The four-oar crew took a spin by twos past the Yale quarters and came back rowing by fours. All the liar ward men were in bed at 10 o'clock last night and arose at ' this morn ing. They are in good condition and enjoying the life at Red Top. Dr B. A. Darling, who is to look after the health of the men and conduct exam nations, arrived this morning. Anoth- CT arrival is c. M Sheaf, captain of last years crew; ".

KNOWS NOTHING oF SYNDICATE

Boston, June 13.-Thomas W. Law son, owner of the Independence to-day stated that he knew nothing about q syndicate having formed in New York to purchase his yacht and denied that negotiations had been begun for such a purchase. Mir Lawson, when asked about the matter refused to consider it seriously. ''It may be possible" said MT Lawson, that some one is selling the Independence without consulting me, as they are doing many curious things in yachting this year." Then he added more seriously: "As far as am concerned there has been no change in the status of my boat since her keel was laid, and since the publication of the last correspondence the subject of the status of the Independence has not been even mentioned to me by any one"

Most of the Passengers Were Landea
 After Desperate Struggle.
 St Johns, N E, June 13. Y The schooner Czar, bound for Labrador, with fishermen and their families, seventy persons in all, was driven ashore on Cabot Island, on the north coast of Newfoundland, in dense fog, Sunday night. A desperate struggle with the elements ensued, the men trying to land the women and children in the teeth of a gale. The latter were finally saved, but four men were drowned and six others were injured in the under taking. | e 9
 The survivors were en the island two days without food or shelter. Then san- other vessel, passing towards Labra- dor, sighted their distress signals, re- cued them and landed them on the mainland, whence they will return home on board a mail steamer.
 The Czar became total wreck and those on board of her lost all their be- longings. The woman and children were in pitiable plight when they reached the island, being aroused at midnight and not being able to secure scarcely any of their clothing.

General Shafter Said There Was No,
 Croakedness Among Army Officers.
 San Francisco, June 13.

 General Shafter further said the mill. itary authorities had nothing more to- do with the matter, other than the seiz- ure of government goods found in the possession of civilians, ana that the de- lection and prosecution of these deal- CTS rested with the civil authorities He said he did not believe there was any crookedness among army officers in connection with the alleged frauds.

 l Hartford, June 13.-Next week will take place the appointments to the
 newly created office of deputy labor commissioners in the cities of Hart ford, Waterbury, Bridgeport, and New Haven. Labor Commissioner Harry A. Back will have no lack of app1i- cants to choose from. From Waterbury
 there are half dozen or more each with backing more or less strong-
 The applicants are George Robbins, who conducts an employment agency Benjamin Witowszi, Edward H. Bel. den, Peter O'Connell, MT Wakelee from Southbury and John Edmondson@ Any applicant associated or affiliated in any way with any labor organization
 might as well withdraw his applica- tion now, as it is rumored from good
 sources that he will stand no chance. notwithstanding that the esIice was cre~ ated at the instigation of the labor orr
 ganizations of the state It is also said that the office will be mainly political one, so that it is necessary to be of the right color and have a strong backing, to stand chance of being successful Information from inside has it that alI the offices are practically filled except New Haven. ID. H. Belden is said t0 be the candidate slated for the Water bury office, though there is possibility that the gentleman from Southbury may get inside him. It being state of- flee, it is held that resident of the community in which 1t will be situat- ed has no prior right to it.
 From the above it is evident that the old policy of to the victors belongs the spoils will be followed in distributing the offices. Mr Belden has been out of political harness for some time. He is now a bookkeeper for wholesale house, in this city. Witowski is denn- ocrat every inch of him. Edmondson is an undertaken and has been active in the councils of his party.

COMMANDO IS INJURED.

New York, June Commando
 James R. Keene's great colt, stepped on a stone while galloping Monday and bruised one of his heels so badly that he will not start in the Brooklyn Derby to-day. While the accident is not con- sidered serious at present, his trainer, James Rowe, is not willing to take any chances of permanently injuring him. The Brooklyn Derby is worth $10,000 and the race seemed to be at his mercy. But rather than start him and so aggravate his trouble, it has been decided to give him a rest and let the $10,000 go to some other owner.

NEGRO MAsoNs REJECTED.

Tacoma, Wash, June 13.-The Grand lodge of Masons have rescinded the resolution adopted two years ago recognizing negro Masonry. The ac- tion of the lodge at that time was se- yerely criticized all over the United States and as a result the next session of the Grand lodge attempted to return to the old established principles, but the resolution was so artfully drawn that sister lodges refused to construe it as an honest expression. The lodge has now in unmistakeable language made its position known.
