ANNAPOLIS, Hit, May i.--Weather
conditions this afternoon were almost
perfect for the two-mile boat race
scheduled for 2 p. in. today, between
the Yale University and the Naval
Academy first sights. The water was
somewhat rough, but the probabilities
are that the wind will die out, and
that the race will be started nearly on
time. Neither of Georgetown's two
crews, who were to have competed
with the second and third midship
men, appeared. Under the circum-
stances it is declared that the navy
will claim the two minor events by
default.
Capt, lde, of the Yale eight, declined
to forecast the result 0 ftoday's race.
The crews will row as follows:

the safe side. The tributaries of the
reservoirs for several miles back will
probably be looked over.

KING EDWARD A MASTEROF Di-
.PLOMACY.
PARIS_ May i.——Tl1c French Press
regards King Edward's continental
tour which ended today with his do-
parture from this city for London, as
being fraught with large political eif~
nlflcance. The following is a sample
opinion:
"The king has demonstrated that he
is a master of diplomacy. He has suc-
ceeded in applying to Germany to Ger-
many, from the political point of view,
the continental blockade which Na-
poleon first. failed to apply to Eng-
land commercially. Wore King Ed-
ward twenty years younger the result
might be dangerous for the peace of
the world, but a span of sixty-six will
hesitate to risk the grand coup." ‘
