Biz Attendance Anticipated.

That the race will probably be one OF
the greatest in point of attendance that
the city has ever known seems an as
sured fact. for observation team tickets
can not be procured either here or IN
New York, and demands are constantly
flowing In for them. The old ice house
located one mile from the starting point
OF the big race is no more. having been
RACED TO the ground last winter, so that
one Of the famous landmarks Of the
course has been wiped away and >he
men will now use only the tents. An
other feature Of the observation train
is the fact that il will be covered. so as
to insure protection to the spectators,
should the elements prove Indictment,
and three more cars have been ordered.
At first ten were ordered, but the super
intendent Of the West Shore railroad re
fused 10 allow this additional number
10 be placed on the track.
John Rice. father Of the captain of
the Georgetown crew, came up in his
automobile the other day from Kingston
and went out with the crew substitutes
IN the Robert Collier. He was we'll
pleased with his sons work, and said
he hoped that Georgetown would be
well I'D.

Georgetown Is Improving.

There Is one thing noticeable about
GeOrgetowns work since its arrival
here, and that is the slow slide work
The men improve with the distance, and
If they can only bear in mind the in
strUctions Of the coach, IL is safe TO
warrant an assertion that the eight will
not be last. The No. man, Murray,
IS still showing a tendency to wash out
at the finish by not pulling his blade all
the way through, but this is only at
times and at other intervals he Is row
ing well. Woods, one Of the hardest
men in the boat to whip IN line, has cor
rected to an 2ppreclable extent his
swinging out of the boat. La Plante
was placed in the boat the other day,
but as he has not been in the shell for
some time he was at a disadvantage
Stuart is very close to the stale edge
and will have TO be watched carefully
from now on so that he may not get
overturned. His efforts TO steady the
bow four have been very successful, and
Chapman, Woods, CrOnin, and Murray
are about in their right positions now.
There is very little. if any pool SELL
ing a vet on the big event, but among
the town people Cornell seems to be in
stalled as a very poor favorite, whose
price would be shifted at the earliest on
slaught by any indication of what would
appear TO be wise money.

GOSSIP OF THE OARSMEN
ON POUGHKEEPSIE RIVER
Georgetown Continues to Show Improvement Particu-
larly in Its Slide Work-lngram, of Navy, Con-
sidered Best Stroke-No Pool Selling Yet

the eight who are not in the best of
condition. At times the proverbial
crankiness which is apparent in men
trained 70 the hour makes its presence
felt. and the cOxswain has all that he
can do 10 keep them from answering
back.
No effort has been made with any
success as yet to have the course
changed. so that the Washington men
may get away from the abutments OF
one OF the piers. The water on June &c,
the day Of the race, will be high at just
6 o'clock. so the watermen here on the
river front say. and the best that
Georgetown can expect under such cir
cumstances is that the wash from the
pier will not be too strong.
Ingram Is Best Stroke.
Navy has fallen somewhat in the esti-
nation OF the race followers here, due
perhaps to the hard work to which the
men from Annapolis have been sub
jected. but there has been a great let-up
recently. Ingram has the reputation
here Of being the best stroke on the
river. He has succeeded. in the opinion
of the watermen here, to the position
left vacant by Greyhound" Foote, Of
Cornell He is certainly powerfully
built, and II the men behind aim can
stand the pace, the future sailors will
be hard to beat. During the last few
days. instead of giving the other crews
chance to see them, the Navy men
! have steadfastly stuck 10 the course
near Crum Elbow, doing all Of the work
there, where their houseboat is quar-
| tered. At race day IL will be q question
as to which crew will go TO the mark
the favOrite. for Cornell and Navy have
! both big follOwings. Navy will back
| its crew 10 the limit Courtney said
| that his crew had shown wonderful i'm
! provement. but that il was not up to
| the standard. but this statement should
! be taken with some caution. as the wiz
ard OF Cornell has been very reticent
about his crew.

For Georgetown Captaincy.

The talk among the Georgetown men
as to Rice's possible successor in the
captaincy has not been very Indicative
Of the one upon whom the burden will
fall. The current opinion is, however,
to the effect that Rice should be re-
elected to the place. He has another
year in the law school Foy. who has
been in the boat for a couple of years,
is not an unlikely candidate, inasmuch
as he returns for Dost-Grad uate
course. Fitzgerald in the opinion of
many the best stroke that Georgetown
has ever had is well liked by his crew
mates. and as next year will be his
third in the boat. It would not be sur
p-ising II the choice fell to him.

Kansas Border Banker Want Pr0tecIIO
Against WITHDRAWALS.

TOPEKA. Kan. Dec. 2I.-Gov. Hoch says
that unless Kansas banks are protected
in some way from Oklahoma he will call
a special session Of the Legislature TO pass
a guarantee deposit law in Kansas to pro-
tect banks along the south line of the State.
When Oklahoma passed Its bank deposit
law the Oklahoma banker did not think
il would hurt Kansas banks Deposits
of small mounts might be Withdrawn
from banks in the southern counties. they
thought, but this would not be a eriOu
loss.
The southern Kansas bankers, however
say they nov better. Nearly every bank
along the border has written to the Governor
asking him to do something. These banks
q v also brought their correspondents in
other parts OF the State into the demand
and letters are now coming In from banks
in the central and even northern sections Of
Kansas urging the Governor TO convene
the Legislature.
The Oklahoma law does not become
effective until February Is. and southern
Kansas bankers want a Kansas law to he
come effective at the same time.
