RACING TIME NEAR AT HAND
Harvard and Vale Crews Are In Good
Condition. But Not Pleated With
Weather:
NEW LONDON, June Air-Willi the
crowning test of their oursnranshlp but
a few hours distant. the Harvard and
Yale crews ut Gales Ferry devoted
most of their time today to the enjoy-
ment of leisure. it. was a day of rest
at both lied Top and Broad View. with
the prospects of tomorrow‘s racing the
subject uppermost In the thoughts of
every onc._ As far as weather condi-
tions were concerned the outlook could
not' be considered pi'oIIIisiiIg., There
was a very high wind oirt of the. north—
west during the morning. and the stir-
I‘aI-c of the Thames was ruffled with a
nasty chop. While,no rain fell during
the early part of the day. the weather
wise regarded the conditions as oInlri~
one for tomorrow. declaring that there
was little prospect of fair weather or
any change front the stormy conditions
of the last two weeks. if. however. the
wind should die down. it is agreed by
old race followers hotii at the crow
quarters and among the river men here
that the Thames rowing records are
sure to be broken. On account of thc
long—continued ruins the river is ab-
normally high just now and along the
course. the current is running more
swiftly than ever before at boat race
time. With tide and current thus us-
stating the race is likely to be rowed
In record time. At both Yale and liar-
vard quarters this noon the coaches ex-
pressed themselves as satisfied with
the condition of the crews. and thc
mcn scented to look confidently for vic-
tory in tomorrow‘s struggle.
in this city the crowd of day before
the race Visitors is conspicuously
smaller Ilian usual probably because
of threatening weather. There are a
few yachts in the lower harbor. but the
usual large fleet had not arrived this
afternoon.
Among rucc followers about the ho-
tels here. the opinion seems to prevail
that Yalc has a good. chance of win-
ning the university and freshman eight
IaI-cs, and Harvard thc four~oarcd race.
it is conceded that the race between
the freshman nights will be stotttly
contested us both these crews are row—
ing powerfully and with remarkably
good form. ’
ANARCHISTS LEAVE FRANCE.
Were Concerned in Nihilist Conspiracy
and campelled to Leave Russia.
PARIS, June 24—The Russian anar-
chists Prince \‘lctor Nackachidze. and
his wife. whose expulsion from France
had been decreed. were arrested today
at 'i‘honon-les-Ilains. on lue. south
shore of Lake Geneva.
Prince Victor Nackachldzc was con-
cerned In the great Nihilist conspiracy
of 1887 and was condemned to death.
At the last moment his sentence was
commuted to hard labor in the Siber»
ian mines. when he managed to escape.
He sought refuge in Paris, where, in
July I800. he. was condemned to a
year's Imprisonment for being concern-
ed with a number of other Russian ref-
ugees in the manufacture of explosive
bombs. After completing his terms of
imprisonment the Prince was expelled
from France. but returned to Nice.
where he was again arrested and sea-
tenced to the penitentiary for having
violated the decree of exile. in 1901 the
prince and his wife were arrested at
Leghorn Italy. having entered Italy
in defiance of the antl-anarchistlc reg-
ulations. and after twenty days' Im-
prisonment they were expelled from
that country as dangerous nnarachlsts.
The pri'ce is said to belong to one of
the best families of Russia closely re-
lated to the imperial family.
Princess Nackachidze who is des-
cribed as a very clever woman. has the
distinction of having been condemned
to deal“ in Russia as one of the princi-
pal leaders in the Skopoka conspiracy.
She has studied medicine and holds a
diploma as a physician.
it is asserted that the prince and
princess have at various times been
expelled from Germany. Spain. Arts-
trla and Belgium at the request of the
Russian police

greater offense against the government
