TAFT WAY AHEAD
By STRAW" VOTE
Over 80 Per Cent. of Employees of Ma
tional House are For The
Secretary.

Washington, D. G., June 15.--The first
straw vote on the presidency which has
been taken in all parts Of the country,
has Just been completed BY G. s. Hoyt,
discussing clerk OF the House Of Repre-
sentatives.
In sending to the employees Of the
House the vouchers for their May sal
aries, which must be signed and re-
turned by June !, Mr.. Hoyt inclosed a
straw ballot, and several hundred have
been returned. To his great surprise,
oyer 90 per cent Of the ballots bear the
name Of secretary Taft, although he had
expected that among the employees Of
the House Speaker Cannon would en-.
Joy a long lead.
Employees from Illinois, Pennsylvania
and lndiana have voted almost eXelu-
siyely for the speaker. Senator Knox
and the Vice President, although Rep
rescntative Oyerstreet received one In.
diana vote. But outside OF these states
the voting was almost unanimous for
the secretary of war.
As the employees of the House are
almost invariably politicians either full
grown or embryo, the significance Of
their ballots is regarded as considerable.

again by the case Of Fannie Morris,

Washington, june Is. Trade Of the

of trade with Alaska we're reported to
the bureau Of statistics, and therefore
a complete picture Of trade with the
entire noncontiguous area now under

be given for the term 190310of.
During that period the shipments from
tile United States to it's noncontignous
territory have increased about 90 per
cent. and the receipts Of merchandise
from them have increased about "A per
cent Comparing the ten months Of
the present fiscal year, for which figures
are now available. with the correspond
ing period of 1908, the first year for
which complete figures can be had, the
growth in shipments to the entire nom

States has been from S29,529,06S to
S55,149,243, an increase Of s676 per

During the same period the merchandise

creased from S4s,250,099 to $59,693,-

HOW THE CREWS
MEASURED UP
Yale is The Faster But They Think
Very Well Of Harvard Kennedy's
Opinion of The Crimson.

New London, June b. Harvard has
stronger and faster crew than last
season. The Crimson eight is one of
the most powerful ever sent down here,
said John Kennedy, the Yale crew
coach. today. Mr. Kennedy has seen
the Harvard oarsmen work on two sep.
arate occasions. Both times he has
been deeply interested with the form
and power they have, shown, and he
frankly states that Yale has a task on
her hands TO win. He echoes the opin,
ion OF Charles Courtney, the Cornell
coach, who said after Harvard had led
Cornell for more than mile, although
beaten at the finish, that Harvard had
crew that was exceptionally good this
season. President Dixon OF the Yale
navy, and George st, John Sheffield,
Yale's rowing statistician, who stood
close at hand and heard Mr., kennedy's
sentiments, echoed them as their own
opinions.
At the Yale quarters it il also be-
lieyed that Yale has also much more
reliable crew than last year, although
years eignt will be able TO equal the
phenomenal fourmile try which the
Yale varsity year ago negotiated on
the Thames. Three watches on the Yale
launch caught the time as 10 minutes
"a seconds, which is - seconds better
than the record OF 10 minutes 81 sec.
onds made by the Yale varsity eight
four years ago. Yale boating men adj
nit that the water and wind condi-
tions on the river when this time was
made were phenomenal, and they do
not expect that crew will be able to
catch such fayoring circumstances on
the water again in years.
Up to date, however, Yale is ahead
in comparison of her time with that
Of Harvard. YaIe's time last evening
was % minutes II seconds. The Har.
ward time of the previous night over
the same course was % minutes and
about % seconds. The conditions under
which the two crews rowed were nearly
identical so that the direct comparison
was possible.
All the Yale oarsmen finished fresh
after their row while it has been learned
that three members OF the Harvard
eight were badly pumped by their spin,
Stroke Farley does not last out a four
mile row with freshness and Glass and
Captain Bacon are apt to feel the
effects Of the long row badly.
Coach Kennedy of Yale has started
an innovation by agreeing to give out
the time of every row taken while the
crews are here. Yale's action in the
matter is taken as direct challenge
to the Harvard officials to also throw
off the mask and to give out the correct
time after every spin.
Not change Is discussed in the Yale
varsity eight and indications now are
strongly that the crew will 60 into
the Harvard race exactly as the mem.
bers of eight are now sitting their she'll.
DImkle has finally taken his seat at No.
3 in the varsity four and he will prob.
abby remain there.
The reorganization Of the Harvard
four has been completed and, although
every member Of the shell, as made up
today, is new to his bench, it is likely
to meet Yale as rowing at present
