BRISTOL, R. l., Jan. 23-The work on the new ninety foeter, the largest aspirant for cup defending honors, has been inspected by MT. O. Oliver Iselin. who will manage the boat during the coming yachting season. MT. Iselin saw the Workmen setting up and fas- tening some of the frames as well as the placing of a few of the braces in the mastheadwake. The chain plates have also been started, and some of the plates have been put in in the webs of the sternpost. MT. Iselin found the boat all framed amidships, and some work had been accomplished in raising the midship section of the gunwale. This section will act as binders in keep ing the top of the frames in place. As has been announced, the new boat shows flat floor to striking degree, but out on the forward underbody as far as the frames are set up the boat is V shaped.

FASTEST TIME EVER MADE

Peter J. Sinnirud of the Verona Lake Skating association met Arthur Yale Sarony of the New York A. c. at Cler- mont avenue rink, Brooklyn, last night, in a one-mile pursuit race. The New York boy was a trife the quicker in getting away and led the Swede on the first lap by a few feet. At the half mile post 1t was an even thing, or near ly so. They entered the last lap neck and neck, and coming away with a great burst of speed the Swede won out by a foot over the half lap in 2 minutes 5 seconds, the fastest time ever made for the distance in the rink.

HARvARD-YALE CONFERENCE.
Will Be Held Tomorrow, When Agree ,,o,n,,f Tc L,x-1ao55t al tn Pa Raached

Will Be Held Tomorrow, When Agree
 sment Is Expected to Be Reached
 The next conference between repre- sentatiyes of Harvard and Yale having to do with another athletic agreement, and questions of eligibility connected with the agreement, Will be held to- morrow either in New Haven or Cam bridge, and it is expected that at this conference negotiations, will have reached a point where the agreement will be consummated. In short, this, 1t is thought, will be the final confer ence. It is said that all of the details bearing on an agreement have about. been settled upon, as the two universi- ties have had, the subject under, con- sideration for several weeks. As to the all-important question of eligibility points that may arise, such matters have hitherto been left to a committee to decide, and it is likely that the same course will be adopted this time. How ever, present negotiations have doubt less included eligibility points and it is probable some understanding has been reached on that score. Eligibility and the period of years covered by the agreement are the main points to be settled, and the coming agreement is expected to be five years in length, the same aaskhe last.
 Great interest attaches to what bear ing the agreement, if it is reached will have on the Glass case. The question og Glass's eligibility to. play football with Yale another year is only detail and not the whole turning point of the negotiations, but 1t is an important point never theless. The supposition is thet as Harvard and Yale are to meet tomorrow some understanding has been reached regarding Glass, though the final decision may be left to the committee referred to. But as Yale cannot wait much longer before elect ] ing her football captain and as Glass is the man most desired for the place, the question will doubtless be settled one way or the other shortly. "What Harvard ought to do," said a college l man yesterday, "would be to say that inasmuch as Glass played only one game against Harvard he was eligible i another season so far as Harvard is concerned. That would be the sports
 man1ike thing to do.'

STRAY BITS OF SPORT.

Syracuse, Jan 23.-James A. TSn Eyck of Worcester, Mass, the veteran professional oarsmen, was chosen yes terday by the athletic governing board of Syracuse university to coach the crews during the coming season, He succeeds E. R. Sweetland, who has coached at Syracuse since lS99. Ten Eyck has been at the Annapolis naval academy since 1900 and has coached number of college crews. He will en- ter upon his duties immediately and a call will be issued to the men. The turning down of Sweetland is a great surprise, as he has coached the football team as we'll as the crews. The trou- ble was over the price of his services. The board will institute graduate coaching for the football and track men. Most of the students were in favor of retaining Sweetland at any price, as he has done a great deal for the university in the athletic line.

It says Woodin only paid him $1,0O0, promis- ing to pay him 5000 later, but that he collected the stake money from the ac-
 sociation and failed to keep his prom ise with Mckee. A number of horses in McKee's hands owned by Woodin, including Nella Jay, have been at, tached to satisfy the debt.

NATIONAL LEAGUE MEN HAPPY.

Peace Settlement Satisfies All-Com-
 mittees to Meet American League.
 Cincinnati, Jan 23.-When the meet ing of the National league adjourned at about 4 80 o'clock yesterday after noon, it was with every one of the magnates standing and singing that popular song, "In the Good Old Sum- mer Time," in acnordanca with Il s,ls. gestion from President Hermann. was but one absentee, and he was John T. Brush. He left the room just as the song was suggested, be- cause he was in a hurry to cath a train for Indianapolis.
 The business transacted yesterday was not of much importance. The first thing done was to appoint Drey- fuss, Hart and Ebbets as the schedule committee to confer with q like com mittee of the American league for the purpose of arranging a non-conf1ictirg g schedule, with an interchange of games. Then a rules committee was appointed, consisting of Hart. Hanlon and Max Fleischmann. This con- mittee, too, will confer with q similar committee from the American league and make the rules uniform.
 The board of directors held 8 meet ing and fixed the salary of President Pulliam. The amount was not given out, but it is known to be about $6, 900 year, the same as was paid Uncle Nick Young while he was presi- dent. The meeting then adjourned subject to call from the president. Chicago, Jan 23.-President Ban Johnson of the American league had the following to say yesterday respect l ing the unanimous ratification of the peace treaty by the National leage en- tered into on January 10 between com mittees of the National and American leagues:
 ''The action of the National league magnates in ratifying the peace agree ment was the. most sensible thing they ever did. They fought the American league a good deal longer than was necessary, and they hurt the game ] National league men are like a lot ot old women-when they can't fight l with others they fight among them I selves. It's good thing for John T ! Brush that he withdrew his injunction
 suit. He would have got an awful I walloping had he not done so.''
 Asked what he thought of the at
 tempt, by the National league to con
 fine his New York grounds to the bor tough of Manhattan, Johnson said:
 Any such resolution was entirely Euncalled for. The American league'
 New York plant will be on Manhattan TcIand U That iS cattIod apd No+iopo league men know it''
 | Johnson has recovered somewha
 from the severe cold from which h.
 has suffered for ten days, and yester
 day was able to get out and transac
 business. He is still under the doc
 tors care, but said he will go to Ney
 York next week on matters connectet
 with the American league, and, tha
 all the doctors in Chicago will not b able to prevent him.

FINEST HUMAN RACE.
The Gunnches of the Canary Islands
Were the Largest and Strong
est of People.

From the description left by the first
Normans. Spaniards and Portuguese,
who landed on Grand Canary, we learn
that the Guanches were the strongest
and finest race of human beings that
ever existed. In the American An
thropologist, Mrs. Alice G. Cook, who
has carefully reviewed the earliest &C
counts of the Canaries. says The
chaplains of Bethencourt found in Flu
erteyentura, one of the Canary Islands,
men of extraordinary stature Among
the dead after a certain battle the
Spaniards found a warrior nine feet in
height. and the size of the tombs indi-
cate bodies of large dimensions. Guar
data. king of the country, was taken
prisoner. Tied and held by three Span
iards. he broke the bonds, overthrow
the men and escaped Thrice captured
he each time burst his chains and freed
himself. Fray Espinosa. who wrote "a
years after the conquest, was shown an
enormous stone, which no European
could lift, but which the Guanches
were accustomed to raise above their
heads. The Spanish told the following
tale illustrative of their skill: Three
soldiers. each with basket of oranges.
stood before a Guanche, who. with one
hand caught all the oranges thrown to
him, while with the other he returned
to each soldier oranges from his own
basket One Canario was so strong
and at the same time so agile that no
one with the force of both hands could
prevent his lifting a glass of water to
his lips and drinking IL without spill
ing drop. Another was taken to Sc
vile, where for cuarto Oess than half
a cent? he would stand and dodge
stones thrown at him from a distance
of eight PAGES. 1t was a favorite sport
in Grand Canary and Generiffe to climb
a cliff. which only to behold makes the
spectator dizzy, and plant a pole firmly
at the summit as memento. The
Spaniards said that the devil assisted
the natives in doing this, In order that
others who should emulate them might
fall from the precipice and perish"
