NO OFFER FROM ROAD. NOR ACTION BY EAGLES To Await Counsel of Judge Zacher Befor Commenc-
 ing Hostilities.

At the meeting of the local aerie of Eagles in the steinert Atheneum yes- terday afternoon an official announce ment was given out by the executive committee that the New Haven road had made absolutely no move toward settling the difficulty between the road and the society since the building in the "cut" was condemned. This an- nouncement shattered a report publish ed Saturday that a favorable proposi- ton was to be received from the road which in all likelihood would be ac- cepted.

Columbia Fast in sprint.

Despite the fact that the Columbia varsity crew defeated Harvard Satur- day rowing experts argue that the race shows nothing except that the Co., lrn.bia men are fast in a sprint. The Harvard men are, they say, essentially fcur-milers, and it is argued that with equal tidal conditions and long CT route Harvard would be able to give a much better account of herself.

ENTERS HENLEY REGATTA.
Yale second Crew VIII Row in Phil
 adeIphia.

It is state ddef1nitely that the Yale navy has decided to enter in the Ameri- can Henley regatta in Philadelphia May 25, the second crew of the varsity squad. This eight was defeated by less than length by the Yale first varsity eight last Saturday in an excellent race. It is rowing in strong form and can be counted upton to make an ex- cellent showing.
 The entry of the eight is, of course, conditioned, upon the favorable action of the Yale faculty this weekk. As the second eight has had no race granted it this year, it is thought that the fac ulty will approve of the scheme for the substitute boat to go to Phlladel- phia to row.

sADDENED BY DEFEAT.
Yale Team Returns from Phila.--NinC
 in Unsatisfactory Condition.

The Yale nine returned to this city yesterday saddened by the defeat by the University of Pennsylvania. Poor batting and cratic fielding cost them their victory. Parsons was batted from the box and his poor performance shows that he cannot be depended upon this season. "Bo" Church is still un- able to play because of a wrenched knee he received last week, but he ex- poets to be able to play by next satur- day, when Yale goes to Worcester to meet Holy Cross.
 With the Princeton game only three weeks away, Nthe Yale nine is in far from satisfactory condition. Lafayette, the eonquerer of Princeton, comes here next Wednesday.
