Syracuse Third, Columbia Fourth and Pennsylvania Fifth at Poughkeepsie. Poughkeepsie, N. T., Jutfe 28. In a triangular battle of blades unequalled in regatta history, Cornell won the 'Varsity four mile race here today, de feating Leland Stanford by eight feet. Trailing the Californlans came Syra cuse, two lengths ahead of Columbia, who -wrested fourth place from Penn sylvania in the last mile of the pre mier feature contest of the inter-collegiate regatta. Cornell's victory gave the Ithaca University the edge for the Red and White junior eight had won the event for second crews, while the freshman race had been captured by the Syra cuse first year oarsmen. The 'Varsity crews left the stake boats shortly after 6 o'clock and from the moment the California oarsmen jumped into the lead until they slid across the finish, only a few feet back THAW IS PERFECTLY SANE AND A OA L Says Dr. Bancroft, Testifying as an Expert Alienist.

While Department of Justiceagents were silent, it was understood the ar mrest of suspected revolutionists was tinder consideration. General Huerta was escorted by po lice, to Fort Bliss tonight A where he was a dinner guest of ColoAel George H. Morgan. Before leaving for the fort Huerta received several newspa per men. "When I left Mexico 1 decided not to discuss Mexican politics," he said. "I have not. deviated from that prac tice and I cannot de so now." Asked about a report from Washing ton that he recently offered his ser "vices to General Iturbe, the general emphatically replied: "Absolutely untrue." rf Huerta emphasized his intention of continuing his trip to San Francisco. ' General Huerta accepted an invita tion to dine with newspaper men Thursday evening. ANGELES IS DELIGHTED Hopes United States Keeps Entire Bunch Locked Up Forever Boston, Mass,-June 27. "I am over Joyed at the news. I hope the United states will keep them all locked up, .exclaimed General Felipe Angeles, when told here tonight of the deten tion of General Huerta and his party at El Paso.

Hundreds of Mexicans Leave to Join "Huerta Colors." Los Angeles, Cal., June 28. Adolfo Carillo, Carranza representative here, said today that several hundred Mexi cans who told him they were to serve under Huerta, left California 'towns for El Paso yesterday. Each recruit, tie said, received transportation and $20. panorama of battling sweep-swingers and shifting shells. In the struggle down the course, aU forecasts and expert' predictions went astray. The Stanford combination with few supporters aiw only a few days' training on the Hudson furnished the greatest upset of all. Stanford was a factor all the way and at the finish thousands were shrieking and cheering the far western crew on, while the prow of the Cardi nal shell was slipping a few seconds too late past the Cornell crew. Syracuse, beaten, but not disgraced by the terrific pace until the last mile was easily passed by the Stanford shell but Coach Courtney's oarsmen were made of sterner stuff, and although faltering at the finish., haji just enough strength to hold their headway until ;the judge's boat had been passed. From the flash of the pistol the race resolved itself- into a struggle between Cornell, Stanford and Syracuse. The Californlans caught the water first and drove into the lead, rowing 36 to the minute. Syracuse hit up at a 40 pace and held second over Cornell rowing 36, wTiile Pennsylvania and Columbia stroked off at 32. At the mile Syracuse led by half a length over Cornell, with Stanford third, a length ahead- of Pennsylvania and Columbia last. At the two mile flags, Cornell was showing the way to Syracuse by a length, while Stanford was third, less than a length behind the Ten Eyck. . Entering on the second half of the course Stanford challenged the lead ers each o'f which had a length over the following crew. Cornell's coxswain saw the Westerners coming and called for a faster stroke. Syracuse also in creased a notch so that while Stan ford's speed improved she could gain little on her rivals. At the three mile point Cornell was first by three-quarters of a length over Syracuse,- a shell ahead of Stanford, with Pennsylvania and Columbia fight ing to keep out of last place. Syracuse then made its bid for vic tory. Little by little the Orange shell swept up on the Ithaca crew, but Stan ford was not to be shaken ofTand row ing stroke for stroke with' the up state crews, swept down the last mile of the course. Half a mile from the finish Cornell's lead had been cut to half a length by Syracuse, but the Californlans were going faster than either of their rivals. At this , point all three crews were going at a pace ranging from 32 to 33, but Stanford with its extraordinary strength was getting the greater speed out of its stroke, although the shell did not run js smoothly. The strain was too terrific for Ten Eyck's pupils and the Orange craft drifted back and left the Cardinal to fight it out with Cornell. Stanford now set out to over take Courtney's crew leading by less than a length. - The Ithaca and Colifornia oarsmen threw forms to the winds and the, last stretches of the course saw two sets of eight sweep-swingers hauling des perately ofi their blades while the sliding seats shot back and forth at the rate of 33 to the minute. Inch by inch the prow of the west ern craft moved up until it passed the waist of the Cornell shell. When the cannon boomed on the judge's boat the Westerners were a bare eight feet short of a victory that would have up set all rowing traditions in the United States. Syracuse was safe in third place, but lost in the waus or the tead ers. . Columbia won from Pennsylvania by a length and a half, while Syracuse led the blue and white by almost three lengths. The official ttme Tor eacn crew for the full four miles was caught as follows: Cornell 20.36 3-5; Stanford 2TU7 4-5; Syracuse 20.43 3-4; Columbia 21:00; Pennsylvania 21.10 1-5. Thaw over a period of three weeks and had tested his mental condition "for reaction from every possible an gle." He said that the commission had gone over in detail with Thaw all the circumstances of his life and had omitted no topic which might bring to the surface the delusion from which the state' alleges Thaw was suffering at the time he shot Stanford White and still is that he was "divinely ap pointed the protector of American girlhood." "We found him perfectly sane' and rational," said Dr. Bancroft. He.' said on cross-examination that a true para noiac, such as the state charges Thaw to be, might for a time submerge his delusion so as to defy the tests of the most expert alienists, but did not think that this could be done for more than two or three months. It was bound to appear after a while. The witness said he had not given "a great deal of weight" to testimony in previous Thaw proceedings before him to the effect that various of - Thaw's relatives had the taint of insanity. He had not ob served that Thaw in his childhood was given to violent outbursts though he appeared to have been excitable, he said. A "Spoiled Child." - "He seemed to have been a spoiled child," eaid the witness. Like some children of the rich, he was brought up without discipline." He did not find, he said, that Thw was morally per verted. !j- ' . General Streeter, giving -his opinion as a lay member of the ' commission, said that Thaw actod in a normal way. Thaw,' he said, had ? expressed 'regret for the killing of Stanford .White and had said he had made a mistake fn idealizing Evelyn Nesbit. The plan to examine President-emeritus Charles W.i Eliot, of Harvard, to find ovt If Thaw,. was expelled from that institution in 1892 has been aban doned, the state announced today as Mr. Eliot had written that he omild not remember any of the circumstances in the case. , Council for the state does not know, officially the attitude of Evelyn Nes bit Thaw toward testifying in Thaw!s trial, according to announcement at the beginning of today's court session. Deputy Attorney General Cook said a subpoena server was on his way to Chateaugay Lake, near Malone, N. Y., to find her. Justice Hendrick today warned the newspaper men that "the trial of this case in the newspapers has got to stop." He threatened with punishment for contempt of court any editor who published stories forecasting evidence yet to be presented. ' (Special Star .Correspondence.) Raleigh, " N. C., June 25.
