ELECTRIC LIGHTS TO
KEEP TABS ON CREW

ITHACA, N. Y, March 8.-A new cleo
trioil device for recording the timing OF
zach Cornell oarsman's stroke has
been Installed on one Of the combinations
OF rowing machines in the armory and
will be tried out during the remainder of
indoor practice. The mechanism is the
invention OF w. +. Beachy. assistant
ma mayer.
The device consists Of . series Of tiny
electric bulbs. a red one and a White
one in front Of Zach oarsman, with a
set OF eight together. one representing
each oarsman. In front OF the crew.
The lights nash on only during tho for
ward stroke Of the oars.
Pulling the stroke oar Of the combina-
ton lights all the white lights down the
row and the n representing stroke in
the group In front OF the crew. Then as
each OF the other oars Is pulled the In
dividual red lights. together with the
given n In the front group. nash on.
Exact correspondence Of action between
the red and white lights in front OF any
oarsman shows that he IL In time witt
the stroke. Exact correspondence OF
the eight lights OF tho group shows hat
the entire combination Is rowing with
perfect regularity.
Although the entire mechanism is a
novelty and worked out now for the first
time the coaches are expecting marked
assistance from IL In developing the per.
feet regularity necessary TO a first class
crew. With the lights TO indicate at n
glance the exact timing OF any man In
relation to the stroke. the coaches will
be able TO devote almost their entire at
tention TO perfecting the oarsnen indi-
'idual!y In necessary points OF form and
style. and will not have To devote the
time formerly necessary TO watching
the combinations rhythm.

WHEAT STILL SOARING,
EMBARGO IS SOUGHT
Chicago Bakers Move to Stop
Exports

Chicago, Oct. 20.-Wheat continued
to break records on the Board of Trade
to-day, and for the second time this
week seemed TO threaten the high-water
mark set in 1898. when Joseph Letter
cornered the market.
B. Fl. Dahlheimer, president Of the
Master Bakers Association Of Chicago,
announced that the association will
meet on Monday to start campaign to
obtain Federal embargo on the export
Of wheat and -four until the domestic
situation is relieved, asking the aid Of
members Of Congress.
Miss Florence King, Of the Woman's
Association of Commerce, announced
the intention of that organization to
send at once a committee to the United
States District Attorney to protest, in
the name of the women OF Chicago,
against the rising prices Of wheat and
-four.

BRITISH SEIZE DUTCH
NAILS FOR MANILA
HoId.Up of Neutral Ship on High
Seas a New Departure

Washington, Oct. 20.-The Dutch
steamer Arakan, bound from Dutch
port in Borneo to Manila. was held up
on the high seas August 30 by Brit
ish war vessel. and all her mail was
taken of, according to advices reaching
Washington to-day. No official expla-
nation has reached the State Depart
ment, and an inquiry may be made as
TO why a neutral vessel bound from one
neutral port TO another and far re-
moved from the war zone was sub
mitted to such treatment.
Great Britain some time ago extended
her censorship to vessels plying in the
Far East, but so far as is known, never
before has seized mail outside British
waters or on such a short local voyage.
Several instances of seizures in Far
Eastern waters, including the Chinese
Prince and the Ksfue cases, provoked
such opposition here that the British
Foreign Office finally made informal ex-
pressions of regret and agreed to
change her policy.
Great Britain's explanation of her
extension of the censorship to the Pa
cifc has been predcated on rumors
that Manila is being used as the base
for a German-Indian junta looking 10
revolution in India.
