Yale Varsity Flashes To

Farm Relief Proposition
Plot to Overthrow
Govt. Is Crushed
Spanish Statement

Madrid, June 25.-((P1)-A plot to
overthrow the administration of
Premier Primo De Rivera has been
discovered and. an official statement
issued tonight says. the movement
was utterly crushed.
The conspirators are described by
the government as a group which
could not be more mixed and ridic-
ulous syndicalists, Republicans,
and intellectual anarchists who
have distinguished themselves by
their constant destructive activities,
persons, who on account of their
age no one would believe capable of
associating with such company. and
dissatisfied military men, of undis-
ciplined and rebellious nature who
form an exception TO their class and
are always willing to participate in
adventures of this Sort
Earlier in the day the government
accused the foremost cultural and
literary society in Spain-the Aten-
eo-of fomenting rebellion and con-
spring against the government.
The secret service is credited with
having frustrated the plot. Accord
ing to an official statement it was
able to learn the names of hose
responsible, and energetic action
will be taken against them.

and ends of financing in Pennsylva-
MAS three million dollar primary
campaign were gathered up today by
the senate campaign funds commit
tee in the first session devoid of the
spectacular since the inquiry began
more than two weeks ago.
A bit of information which came
before the investigation was that
William D. Wilson, who, under, Pres :
ident Wilson, had been offered a place
on the newly created reairoad medi-
tation board after he had been nomi-
mated without opposition as the DEM
cratic senatorial candidate in the
Keystone State.
Explaining the entire matter was
confidential. Mr.. Wilson told the
committee he could not divulge from
whom the offer had come and would
not have adverted to it had he not
been under oath and had the direct
question not been asked.
Mr.. Wilson, called because he was
a candidate, testified his personal ex-
penditures had been $SS.S1 and that
the campaign committee for the coa-
lition ticket he formed with William
E. Porter, one of the defeated candi-
dates for the gubernatioral nomina-
ton, had spent approximately $780,
600.
The Pennsylvania primary got into
senate debate briefly during the day,

U. S. CAVALRY And

CUSTER MASSACRE

Crow Agency, Mont, June 25-(P1-
On the historic battle-ground here,
where on June 5. 1876, General George
A. Custer and five companies of the
Seventh Cavalry were cut to pieces
by an overwhelming force Of Indians,
white men and red today clasped
hands in a renewal of the pledge of
friendship which has endured for two
score years.
AS large crowd gathered for the
semi-centennial observance of the
battle Of the Little Big Horn looked on,
five troops of the new Seventh Cav
airy appeared on the ridge to the
south, the direction from which Gus
ter, at the head of his column, came
half a century ago. Led by General
e. S. Godfrey, who, during the battle
of the Little Big Horn. commanded
Company X, under Major Benteen.
the troops marched toward the ma
tional cemetery to the strain Of a
funeral march.
From the great Indian village came
hundreds of red men, among them
nearly 80 Sioux and Crow survivors
of the battle, led by Chief White
Bull. who as a youth. headed band
of Sioux under n-The-Face.
Near the obelisk which marks the
historic battle ground the troopers
and Indians met. White Bull made
the sign of peace by raising his right
hand. General Godfrey responded by
dropping his unsheathed sword into
its scabbard.
AS they met, they clasped hands
and to cement the friendship, White
Bull presented the officer with priz-
ed blanket, while General Godfrey
gave the chief an American flag. Then
the roar of gunfire again sounding
through the Little Big Horn valley
from a volley fired over the graves
of Clusters men, and the plaintive
notes of taps" re echoed against the
bluffs.
Accompanying General Godfrey and
the five troops of the Seventh were
seven troopers who engaged in the
battle of the Little Big Horn.

Yale to the Fore

Harvard took a slight lead at the
start, but quickly gave way to the
men from New Haven and thereafter
Yale was never headed. Harvard re-
peatedly spurted but Yale always
had power in reserve. Both crews
were in good condition at the close
Of the contst.
The official times were:
Yale .................... 20:14 2-5
Harvard .................. 20:2l 3-9
Yale's varsity triumph came after
Harvard for the first time in four
years had won the two morning
races, the freshman race by three
lengths and the Junior varsity con-
test by two lengths, each over a two
mile course.
Yale's varsity clearly demonstrat-
ed It's supremacy, however, rowing a
smooth pace Of 80 strokes to the
minute to hold an open water ad-
vantage most of the way. then lift
ing the beat to 81 to meet the Grim
sons challenge and pull away from
the Cambridge eight in the last
quarter mile. Harvard. rowing a
choppier stroke n slightly faster
beat, about 40 to the minute. never
was able to more than threaten the
Ellis.
Taking the lead soon after the
start and setting the pace from then
on to the finish the brilliant Eli
eight stood off every threat OF the
Cambridge oarsmen and crossed
the finish line of the four mile pull
fully two lengths in front. There
seemed scarcely any double OF the
finals.
