 The Hague Discussion.

St. Petersburg, March H.-Germany and Austria are concentrating their eff forts against Great Britain's proposal to include in the programme for the ap- peace conference at The Hague a discussion of the limitation of armaments. Following the audience which Count Bechthotholdt, the Austrian ambassador, had with Emperor Nicholas yesterday Herr von Shoern, the German ambassa- dor, was received by his majesty today and in long audience made an energetic protest against the British position.
 Diplomatic silence is preserved at both embassies and the foreign office with re- gard to these audiences but 1t Is under stood both Germany and Austria recog- nize that the introduction of the question of armaments is unavoidable. They are now concerned with the form in which the subjects will be presented to conference and the best way of meeting the issue. They are working in complete unison.

CAMBRIDGE WINS
 RAGE FROM OXFORD
WITH PRACTICALLY THE SAME CREW WITH WHICH SHE DE- FEATEo HARvARD-WINs EAsI. " BY FOUR LENGTHS.

Putney, England, March 16-Cambridge university, with practically the same crew as the one which defeated the Harvard men last fall by two lengths. today beat Oxford by four and one-half lengths over the same course, from Putney to More lake, @ distance of about four and one half miles, when the sixty-fourth annual boat race between crews representing the universities of Oxford and Cambridge was rowed. The time, 20 minutes and 20 sec onds, was somewhat slow, a gusty wind and rough water destroying all chances of beating the record over the course, IS minutes and 47 seconds. established by Oxford In 1893 and equalled by Cambridge in 19OO
 The Oxonians won the toss and chose the Surrey side of the river, which in view of the strong southwesterly wind blow ing, experts calculated was worth two lengths. Even with this advantage, how ever, the Oxford crew had no chance against Cambridge, which probably was the finest British crew that ever pulled in an eight, and all of whom, except Powell and Burn, rowed against Harvard last September. The race today was procession.
 
 forty-one to Oxford's forty and quickly pushed the nose of their boat in front. At the half-mile post thea Cambridge men were well ahead. Passing under Ham, mersmith bridge about one and three quarter miles from the start, Cambridge had a lead of length and a quarter and soon after that the Cambridge boat was sufficiently clear to cross the river and take Oxfords sheltered water. The stroke by this time had been reduced to 32 for Cambridge and 30 for Oxford. rough water at Chiswick Eyot, about two and half miles from the starting point, was troublesome to both crews, especial ly to Oxford on which the strain began to tell, considerable splashing being seen. Passing the three-mile post Cambridge was from four to five lengths in front, and kept the same lead to the end. The Cambridge men were comparatively fresh at the finish, but several of the Oxford crew were badly exhausted. The official time was twenty minutes twenty seconds.
 While some of the edge was taken on the keenness of public interest by the general opinion that the race was a fore gone conclusion, there was little diminu- ton in the size of the enthusiasm and crowd present. Masses of spectators lined the banks of the Thames at all points of vantage along the course and the great est enthusiasm prevailed.

 RailDay NaH SeYbice

Washington, March 16.-Material im- provement in the railway mail service for New Orleans and incidentally for other cities of the south and southwest, Is projected by the postoffice depart ment. Serious complaint has reached the department from business men in New Orleans, both of the delay in the arrival of the mail trains and in the handling of the mails after their arrival in the city. Voicins this complaint, Representa- tive Meyer of Louisiana, in letter to the department, said that sixteen out of the twentyfour trains entering New Orelans daily arrived late on an average of more than one hour, and in some cases nearly an entire day, which has brought about a complete demoralization of the mails subjecting every interest

in New Orleans to heavy loss.
 The postmaster general said today that the department had made a thorough in vestigation of the situation and as a re- suit, it was found to be inadvlsable to establish a new railway mail division at New Orleans, and a recommendation has been submitted that an enlarged SUI pervisory force in the railway mall ser vice be employed at that point. A great Improvement already has been made in the mail facilities of the city, he stated, by additional railway postoffice clerks on a number of trains and additional services are in contemplation. Action is also about to be taken that will facilitate the distribution of mall in the city of New Orleans. The failure of trains to run on schedule time cannot be controlled by the department. It is believed, how ever that the imposing of penalties will have the effect of improving the service.
