TIGERS WIN RACE BY A FOOT
Harvard Eight Loses Spirited Race on Lake Carnege-Tme
 9:1211a- Crimson Crew Made Great Spurt Near Finish

Princeton, N. J.. April 20.-Princeton's varsity crew defeated Harvard's var sity eight on Lake Carnegie late to- day by about a half foot. Time: Princeton varsity 9:12 1-2; Harvard 9:i13.
 The junior varsity race was won by Harvard by two lengths. Time: liar yard juniors 9:46: Princeton 9:55.
 The Princeton seniors, after a spirit ed struggle at the start. took the lead, quarters of a length at the three quarter mile post. Harvard moved up her stroke and gradually narrowed the distance between the two boats until they passed into the final sprint all most even. Both crews made 36 strokes to the minute, but the last pull was with Princeton.
 Captain Cochran of the winning crew stroked his men beautifully. At the three quarter mile post he had dropped his stroke to 30, increasing it 32, 34 and 36 as the Harvard crew crept up. Lund, the veteran who led the Harvard eight, made a magnificent spurt after the mile and half post had been passed and was rapidly over hauling the Princeton boat when the finish line was reached.
 The Harvard juaicrs easily defeated the Princeton second crew. taking the lead at the start and finishing the race two and a quarter lengths ahead. The Princeton boat was guilty of ragged work after the first mile.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET CLOSED WEAK
War Group Issues Fell to Lowest Quo
 tations of the Year.

New York, April 20.-For a brief time, that is during the forenoon, to- days market manifested a disposition to break away from the depressing factors which brought about the eX- treme weakness of the previous day. Opening prices were mostly at sub stantiaI advances and trading was broader, if less active, the speculative contingent taking more cheerful view of the international situation.
 Improvement was Short-hVed, how ever, another selling movement of in creaSing proportions being encounter ed later, which not only obiterated most gains, but caused further ma terial recessions. Weakness was again most pronounced in the war group, some of those issues, together with others indirectly allied thereto, fall ing to lowest quotations of the year
 Liquidation was at its height in the last half hour. All divisions Of the list were sympathetically affect ed, including U. s. Steel, which fell while Bethlehem Steel dropped 6 1-9 to 421 1-2. Rails were steady, with a few exceptions, but this may have been due to the scarcity of offerings Total sales amounted to 592, GOO shares
 U. s. Industrial Alcohol suffered the greatest loss with an extreme decline of points, but Stakeholder, Nesting house, American Smelling, American Can and Mexican Petroleum, as vel as the zinc and Fertilizer shares were under heavy pressure. Mercantile Marines, which were the most active feature of the day, more than held their ground with United Fruit and Reading.
 A further jump in marks and Ger man exchange to 75 3-4 for demand or Berlin, was the significant feature o1 the international money markets. Al this quotation marks are almost five | points above their low rate of few | weeks ago. Sterling was dull bu 1 steady and francs were shade eas. ! fer

 to advices from London announcing
 settlement of the crisis in the Britisl 1 cabinet, but much interest was evinc 1 ed in the arrival of Russian troops il i France, because of the probable eff : feet in the western theatre of tn 1 war.
 The bond market was dull. Tota

Chicago, April "A slashing single by Victor Safer sent over the run to- day that gave Chicago the opening game of on the North Side grounds in an eleven inning battle at Cincinnati ' to 6. Thirty men took part in the contest, IT Cubs and 13 Reds and the last few innings saw pinch hitters and pitchers changed about two to the round. Each side used four pitchers. The Cubs went into the eighth in ming three runs behind and counted two. In the ninth, a single by Flack and a double by Zimmerman tied the score and Williams double and Saier's timely single made after Schultz pur- posely passed Zimmerman, scored the winning run in the eleventh. The game was g. lively exhibition of bat ting by both teams. Fisher led for Chicago with four hits and was rob- bed of a fifth by the spectacular one handed catch by Griffith.

Boston, April 20.-The Boston Ma tionals opened their season at Braves Field today with an 6 to O victory over Brooklyn. President P. D. Haughton's first appearance as head of the Braves was recognized by the Harvard Col lege class of 1899. of which he was a member. The class attended in a body and gave him a floral piece.
 The game itself was an exhibition of remarkable fielding by the Boston team and of high pitching promise by Barnes, a youngster. Cutshaw, the Brooklyn second baseman, had the unusual record of making three suc- cessive errors in the second inning, letting two grounders pass him and throwing wild in an attempt to head off a runner at the plate.
 Boston batter Coombs hard in con- nection with passes and gained an early lead. The score:
