 tion of Simpson.

Willimantic, June 9.-It was announc- ed to-day that the board of directors of the Connecticut Agricultural college has acted on the resignation of Pres ident Simpson, and that he would for the present remain president of the college.

The board of trustees have granted him a three months vacation to be taken at any time and President Simpson says that for the present he will re- tain hi sseat as president.

Her counsel, after a conference as to the advisability of granting the request replied that they will not all low their client to go before the grand jury. The letter says in part:

 From our conscientious understand ing of the facts attending the unfor- tunate death of MT.

 Under these conditions, we can con ceive of nothing which Miss Patterson can. or should be called upon to ex- plain

 Incurs.
 Paris, June 9.-Foreign Minister Del- |casse made a statement in the chamber |of deputies to-day giving summary |of the official Investigation into the atrocities in Armenia. The question |came up upon the request of M. dePres- sense, socialist, that France make a naval demonstration against Turkey in |order to stop the Armenian persecu- Itions. M. Delcasse said he received on Monday a report from the French ann lbassador at Constantinople giving the result of the investigation of the French consul sent into the Sassoun district. lit showed there had been a number of bloody combats, and villages had been lcaptured by the troops and destroyed, but it was impossible to estimate, even approximately the number of villages estroyed or the number of people kill led. There was no doubt the uprising resulted in the killing of many rebels land also in the death of many peaceful peasants. But the presence of the
 French, Russian and British consuls Twas beginning to restore confidence. The affair had been exaggerated, but they were no less deplorable. The port maintains In Armenia an adninistra- Ition of such a character that insurrec- tion is the only resource for the popu- llation.

UTAH DEMOCRATS.
Presidential Delegation unInstructed-- No Reference to Porygamy in Plank.


 No Reference to Porygarny in Plank.
 Salt Lake City, Utah, June 9.-The six delegates from Utah to the democratic national convention will go uninstruct- ed. Four of the six, it is understood, are against William R. Hearst. with a leaning toward Judge Parker for first choice. Two delegates probably will probably support Hearst. For some time before the democratic state con- vention which met to-day 1t seemed all most certain that a bitter factional fight would be waged over the question of instructions to the national delegates with regard to the polygany question. One faction, led by Brigham H. Rob- erts, were outspoken in their demands that the delegates be instructed to fight any anti-polygamy plank in the nation- al platform. Another faction strongly favored the adoption of plank de- manding that the federal government taken into it's own hands the suppress sion fo polygamy.
 It was finally decided by the party 1eduGIS tO dNuiQ dlk FGlCECIlCG u tlie question, and Sd thoroughly was this plan carried out that no committee on resolutions was appointed and no plat form was presented to the convention. Temporary Chairman Tillman D. John- son in his opening speech made a plea, for an uninstructed delegation and said the only platform the democratic party needed this year to win was an anti Roosevelt plank. This was the only preference to national issues made.
 The delegates to the national conven- |tion are Joseph Mason, George c. Whit more, former Senators Frank F. Cannon and Joseph L. Rawlins, s. A. King and Simeon Bamberger, D. H. Peary, jr., a young mining man from Salt Lake City, was elected national committee man from Utah.

PRACTICE ON THE THAMES
HARVARD AND YALE GO OYER
 FOUR-MILE COURSE.

! Crimson Knocks Thirty Seconds on Time of It's Best Previous TriaI--An Easy Paddle With Conditions Favor abIe--yaIe Reels or the Four Miles in 21:54, Rowing an Even Steady Stroke.
 Harvard Crew QEsrters, Gales Ferry, June 9.--In the four mile row over the Thames river course early this evening the Harvard varsity crew knocked off thirty seconds more from the time of l the best previous trial. It was an easy paddle for the men with the conditions better than at any time since the,crews have been at Red Top The time was lnot fast, however, although the work of the oarsmen was encouraging as i they rowed an easy and steady stroke for the entire four miles pulling 26 lstrokes for the first half mile, and sell dom over 2S during any part of .the course. None of the men exerted hirn- self to any great extent and after fin- lishing, rowed back to the quarters in one stretch.
 l Just before the trial the second and freshmen crews padded over to the
 startling line, and kept the Yale var lsity, which had come out for it's spin,
 waiting until the Harvard varsity had
 gone to the line. In the full sight of the 1 Yale varsity crew the coachers on the
 launch the three Harvard crews darted
 down the course. The varsity started
 with a sluggish stroke and both fresh
 men and second crews soon had open
 water on the first eight. When the
 crews reached the navy yard the second crew dropped out of the rowing and
 were a quarter of length ahead of
 the varsity, but a length behind the
 freshmen. Pulling a steady stroke the
 freshment kept up until the third mile
 post was reached and finished two
 lengths ahead of the varsity crew. l The first crew was rowing 28 strokes l to the minute and occasionally went three or four strokes higher. No one
 expected the crews to make a race out
 of the spin and they did not exert them
 selves and finished in excellent condi-
 tions. The men padded back and when | 100 yards up the river had the pleasure lof seeing the Yale varsity spin over
 the finish line near the bridge. Persons
 on the Harvard launch caught the Yale ltime 21:09 for the four miles.
 Late, in the afternoon the four oar,
 with wind and no tide, went mile in
 5 minutes and 50 seconds. A good deal lof time was lost by splashing, yet the iwork was encouraging.
 Yale Crew Quarters, Gales Ferry, June 9.--Yales varsity crew went over the four mile course tonight in fairly 1 fast time, 21:54, rowing an even steady stroke. The start was made soon after the Harvard crew left the line, the men going 26 strokes to the minute for the first half mile. The stroll .ds put LID Ito 2S and at the finish the men were rowing 27 strokes. The freshmen crew
 went the first two miles with the var sity and when they quite were half a length behind. Ferugson took Miller's place at No. in the varsity shell to-
 night, the latter having a bad knee
 which will keep him off the water for a few days. A short brush between the Varsity and freshmen constituted the
 work of the crews this morning.

AMERICANS AND ART.
Refusal to Exhibit "saturnalia" Causes
 Discussion in Italian House.

Rome, June 9.-Signor Furinato, un- der secretary of state for foreign af- fairs, in reply to an interrogation in the chamber of deputies about the in fringement of rights of Signor Biondi, the sculptor, in New York, said that the Metropolitan Museum of Art, pri- vate institution, had signed a contract to exhibit Signor Biondi's "Saturna- lia," but had afterwards refused to do so. The Italian government could not interfere, but Signor Biondi had asked advice of the consulate general in New York, which had been given.
 Deputy Cerri said that it was ab- surd to consider the "Saturnalia' inn moral Americans came purposely to Italy to admire nude figures in the Museums. He suspected that the ri valry of American artists was the true cause of the treatment that had been given to Signor Biondi. He urged that the government should see justice done.

CRY OF DEATH TO UNlONISM
CRIPPLE CREEK CITIZENS OUT
 WITH NEW SLOGAN.


 Must Either Sever His or Her Com
 nection With Such Organization or Leave the District-Absolute Annihi-
 Iation of Organized Labor Openly Aimed At.
 Cripple Creek. Col, June 9.-"Death to unionism in the Cripple Creek dis trict." is the new slogan of the Citizens Alliance, which has sent a decree broadcast that every person connected with any union here must either sever his or her connection with such organ ization or leave this district. The latest stand of the anti-unionists was vaguely hinted at two days ago, but the movement on the part of the alliance seemed so absurd to three or four thousand unionists in the camp, and its enforcement fraught with so many difficulties, that it was not taken seriously,
 l No person who works for a living will be exempt, and the absolute annihila- tion of unionism in this country is pre- dieted by members of the Citizens Ali ance and the Mine Owners Association. This is considered the most drastic step lyet taken by the alliance since it secur- ed the upper hand in the district, and ldts enforcement will affect 5000 men l and women now affiliated with the va Irious unions. Among the unions that Mill feel the new movement are the clerks, cooks and walters, bartenders, carpenters, electricians, trainmen and stone and brick masons. The uniondsts assert they will fight the movement to a finish.
 Victor, Col, June 9.-In a bloodless as- sault made by 150 militiamen and depu- ties led by Adjutant General Sherman M. Bell, on the Portland mine to-day the mine. was indefinitely closed, to be reopened later on terms which will pre- vent any workmen securing work with out presenting satisfactory working cards from the Mine Owners associa- ition. General Bell says the mine was closed because of military necessity" :" as the men working in 1t were contrib luting to the support of the strikers and thereby continuing the present condi- tions in the district. His proclamation also states that dangerous men in the mine should be held. What promised to lbe the bloodiest engagement the district has ever seen passed away as mildly as a summer shower.
