with the tide. which then will be a3out three hours
before its food.
This question came up rather unexpectedly to-
night, when Captain Filley on the Harvard and
Captain Whittier of the Yale crews met TO toss
the coin for choice of lanes in which 10 row the
three races. 1t appears that of late the tide has
been variable. either being an hour earlier or an
hour later than shown by the tide tables. Tonight
the wind was still in the same quarter it had
been all day, and the proposition made tina t
the varsity race be changed
In tossing for choice of positions in the several
races Harvard in tbs varsity and freshman
made are: Harvard win have the east lane in the
freshman race and the west lane in the varsity
by choice. and Will the west in the
four-oared by reason OF Yase's choice of the east
side. If there IS aly' advantage through depth of
water, this aCcrEeS to Harvard The selection Of
race officials also made, and Mr.. Meikeham
again Will be referee of all three races. George
for Yale, and ], F. Perkins for Harvard: Hugh
Auchincloss for Yale and a Harvard man. not yet
named, TO be judges at the ff;ish of the varsity
race.
In the four-oared and freshman races George
Bah and G. Whitney will be judges for Harvard,
and Hugh Auchincloss and George Low judges for
Yale.
The work of the crews to-day was lfght-just
enough to keep them from feeling lazy. There were
few visitors at either quarters.

CREWS TO MEET TO-DAY.
Il Big Croscd at Ne5c-Lof'don to
See the Annual Regatta.

New-London Conn, June 2s.-The varsity, fresh
man and four-oared crews of Yale and Harvard
will meet on the famous Thames course tomorrow
IN their annual aquatic struggle. The town IS
filling I'D tonight with the followers of the TWO
universities, and indications point to one Of the
biggest crowds that ever saw the crews battle
over the four-rnile stretch. The harbor, too, is
filling up with hundreds Of yachts. which will be
anchored on both sides of the finish line for dis
tance OF mile or more.
The blue of Yale and the crimson of Harvard
can be seen on all sides. TIE shop windows are
gay with color. and the inevitable far is already
on hand with the distinguishing marks for the ed-
herents of either crew.
The betting is light tonight but by the time the
specials get in from Boston and NewYork in the
morning much money is likely to be wagered- Yale
is the fayoTite for the varsity but the Har
ward freshman and four-oared crews are preferred
in their races. There is even some disposition on
the part Of the Harvard TO support the varsity
crew also. The loss of DAILY from the Yale boat at
the last minute may result disastrousy. He was

London June 2s-AH of the Americans with

the running for the British lawn tennis cham

distinction of providing the most sensational
match of the tournament In +. Wilding, who is
reserve member of the Australian team which
will compete for the Dwight F. Davis trophy
CIothier met a general whose steadiness enabled
him to snatch great contest from the Ameri-
can player. Wilding is a New-zealander and
is captain of the Cambridge University team.
This match almost entirely depleted the other
galleries.
Larned at the same time was having an al
most equally hot struggle with another New
Zealander H A Parker. Throughout the
match. however. Larned seemed to have some
thing in hand. and though the match went TO
five sets he did not exert himself to his utmost
capacity.
A. w. Gore who it viii he remembered, took
the first British team to the United States,
proved too strong for Beals c. Wright. Gore
kept at good length throughout, was extremely
accurate in placing and maintained a tremend-
Gus pace.
The result of the Wimbledon tournament has
given the British players a new lease of life, and
in anticipation of the Davis Cup play they are
already claiming certain victory for the Doherty
brothers; but both Ward and Wright said to-
day that While it would have afforded them
satisfaction to secure the AlI-England Cham
