Being anxious te allay somewhat the disappointment of the 1.009 spectator who had aasembied to witness the big race, the California crew sprinted over the course at racing speed. In the meantime It had been ascer tained, that the Injured shell could be repaired in a short time, and the man agers of the event decided to pull off the big race as per the original sched ule. The California team wa consulted and like the true sportsmen that they are, consented to race under those or any other conditions that would be con venient to the management They were given a rest of but two hours, and as consequence were beaten by three lengtha by the fresh crew of the university of Waahington. If the University of Washington boys had been aa generous as their competi tors they would have refused to place any handicap on the visitors ahd would have gone Into the contest on exactly even terms.

NOME BUSINESS IS VERY ENCOURAGING More Than 4,000, it is Esti mated, Have Embarked : . ' ... from Seattle. , ... .. Preferred Steak Canned ood., Allen JtLewir Best Brand. SEATTLE. Wash.. June 9. Before the middle of the present month practically every steamer scheduled for Nome-will have departed. The exact number of large steamers and sailing' vessels that will take part In the Nome traffic this year is not now definitely1' known. Their combined tonnage and passengrers capacity, how ever, are estimated at 43,000 net tons and 4,200 passengers. Shipping men say that the volume of business this year will be so large that It will be Impossible for the" vessels scheduled to take care of It all. Prac tically all of the passenger room has been sold out weeks ahead of the date of sailing, and the freight capacity of all vessels Is being taxed to Its. utmost capacity. It Is predicted that there will be a great many people for Nome leit behind when the last of the vessels 'now scheduled Have departed.' unless boats riot now named decide to go on ttie Northern run. This Is not -the kind of a rush that marked the first two or three seasons following the discovery of gold at Nome. Those going up now are old prospectors who have been there before, or who have property of one kind or another there. They go up to look after and develop their properties and they have money "With them , to pay for the beet that .s going. . : ;J ' ' There are also many that go up with the intention of entering the employ of the various firms and mining companies thHt have been established there for years. In spite of the great number going for this purpose it is predicted that there will be a great scarcity of labor In Nome this season. This Is due partly to the practical depopulation of that town by the stampede to the Tunana. Thfe number f men required by the large operators at "Nome is very great and it is feared that the demand cannot- be met. - Had this condition been forseen there Is no doubt that a great number of ves sels other than those already scheduled would have arranged to engage in the traffic between Seattle and Nome this season. In fact, despite the lateness of the hour for making the arrangements, It Is said several vessel owners con template throwing up the runs they may have now to enter the Nome busi ness. Should they do so the situation both as to cargo space and labor at Nome would be greatly relieved. HONOR GALUSHA GROW (Journal Special 8ervlce.) MONTROSE, Pa.. June 9.
