BRIGHTON BEACH. July 16. - The

Of body blows yesterday that made q
number throw up the sponge, while tho
rest looked over their dattened bank
rolls last night with wry faces.
1t is seldom that so many good things
caught at long prices have gone over
the plate one after another. 1t seemed
as If there was q general conspiracy
to smash the ring to pieces, and waen
the days work was done there were
many lucky spectators who had money

their quarters and, grounds. and have
worked through the second day Of their

representative has been present, nor has
one communicated with the visitors.
There have been no offers OF assistance

possible TO imagine that a visiting team
20 America would receive such treatment
at the hands OF American representa-
tIVes. They would be undoubtedly re-
/ ceived by q committee at the pier and
offered every means Of assistance from
the home college or colleges.
So far as oxford or Cambridge is con-
cerned the Americans have n reason
TO believe that they exist Every mem
/ Der Of the visiting team feels the slight
kcenly, though no OutspokeH comments
have been made.
Lack Of Courtesy.
They consider it to be an extraordi-
nary lack of the rudinents OF courtesy.
though giving the Englishmen every
benefit Of error or transformation.
The lavish attention that America paid
70 the visiting English teams in the past
is recalled, however.
Yale and Harvard are fully able to go
il alone and ask for no assistance. They
do, however, ICOk for ordinary courtesies
TO be extended 10 them. which 10 date
