A CORRECTION ### The unfavorable rowing conditions on the Thames during the past week have proved a strenuous test for the Light Blues. The river is considerably above normal level, and a swift current has made the men work their hardest while traveling up-stream. Dudley Ward, the coach, seems very well satisfied with the condition of his men, for, despite the extra effort required of them, they have

The rowing was powerful, if not as polished as some of the eights of other years at this stage of training. Oxford Practice. The Oxford oarsmen have been in strict training now for some days. The conditions for the Dark Blues have been even more unfavorable than for Cambridge.

It is likely that the present order of rowing will prove to be the final one. That the boat is improving creditably is evidenced by the showing made on one particularly long paddle below Sandford. From the Boathouse the men rowed to Iffley without an “easy,” with the stroke at a steady 24. They continued at the same speed to Sandford, and, when below the locks, started off at 32. This rate was gradually slackened to 29 after a stiff
This rate was gradually slackened to 29 after a stiff row, but not until the boat had traveled more than two miles was an “easy” called. Dr. Mallaby seems to have worked great improvement since he took up his duties as coach. Hard work appears to agree with the men, and he has seen to it that they have had plenty. After today, which is the last on home waters, Colonel Bourne will direct training at Henley.

Case Now Concluded —Prosecutor Demands Conviction of Miller. (Paris Times Radio) NEW YORK, Wednesday—Before the jury in the Daugherty-Miller case was locked up for the night, it asked for cheques which had been offered in evidence, and a letter from Senator Guy D. Goff (Republican, West Virginia), which figured also in the Government’s case against Mr. Harry M. Daugherty, former Attorney-General of the United States, and Colonel Thomas W. Miller, former Alien Property Custodian, charged with conspiracy to defraud the Government in the return to neutral holders of $7,000,000 of stock of the American Metals Company. In the first trial,
stock of the American Metals Company. In the first trial, held five months ago, Mr. Daugherty and Colonel Miller benefited by disagreement of the jury, and the Government appealed to the Federal Court here. Called for Cheques. The case went to the jury at 1.10 yesterday afternoon. Just before being locked up for the night the jurors called for the cheques which are said to have been deposited to Mr. Daugherty’s account in his brother’s bank in Ohio, after $441,000 is alleged to have been paid to Mr. Daugherty and Colonel Miller for effecting the transfer of stock. Senator Goff,
Colonel Miller for effecting the transfer of stock. Senator Goff, who at the time of the transfer was an assistant in the office of the Alien Property Custodian, took the responsibility for the deal and his letter is concerned with this phase of the case for the defence. The Federal Attorney, Mr. Emory R. Buckner, demanded that the jury should convict Colonel Miller, at least. “I don’t care so much what you do with the Daugherty case,” he told the jurors, “but you cannot help convicting Miller. If you do not convict him, you will be saying to me and
not convict him, you will be saying to me and to every other Prosecutor to run along and prosecute the pickpockets, but never mind the men higher up.” Mr. Buckner called Senator Goff “a rubber stamp” in the office of the Alien Property Custodian. This so angered the Senator that he tried to dispatch from Washington a telegram of reply which was so strongly worded that the Postal Telegraph Company refused to accept it.

Newfoundland has won her fight against the Province of Quebec for title to 120,000 square miles of territory in the Labrador boundary dispute, which has continued for twenty years and which has cost, it is estimated, at least £250,000 in fees to lawyers, expert testimony and other expenses. The territory which the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, (the highest
which the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, (the highest Court in the British Empire) awarded to Newfoundland, last evening, includes 60,000 square miles of spruce forests. The timber represents tremendous wealth in the form of pulp for manufacturing paper and it is so situated that it can be handled expeditiously and cheaply. In its present undeveloped condition, a conservative estimate of the value of the territory is £50,000,000. The steadily increasing demand for pulp has placed vast fortunes in the control of the Newfoundland Government. The potential water power of Labrador is also very great. It is estimated that
of Labrador is also very great. It is estimated that approximately 7,000,000 h.p. Of hydro-electric force is contained in the Hamilton River and other streams of the territory. When it is recalled that experts have estimated that in twenty years the forest resources of the Province of Quebec will be exhausted and that the demand for water-power from the United States is steadily increasing, it can be readily understood why Quebec, with the backing of the Dominion Government, made a bitter fight for her claims. The Labrador fisheries are an important source of profit, but the actual coastline was not
