DIG CtlOWD SEES PENN
AND YALE CREWS RACE
Continued From Preceding PaKe
celve their first real test today. For
months tho Penn coach hns worked harder
with tho crew material than nny previous
tutor and was totally unacquainted with
the men at the beginning ot tho yenr. He
did not know wherein their good qualities
lay nnd had only a comparatively short
time to find them out for himself. The In
troduction of tho twlce-a-day rowing wai
an Innovation at tho Quaker Institution
nnd a good deal of criticism was aroused
by former oarsmenwho thought that tho
Penn crow would son. bo ovcrcondltloncd.
Tho Yale eights will undoubtedly uso
a much lower stroko than Penh. Tho
lied and Blub onrsmen will start out about
42- strokes to the minute, with Yale at 38.
Tho Ells appear, however, to fcet a much
lopger stroke than tho Penn oarsmen; but
do not get as good a leg drive as Penn.
It will not be surprising If Yale gets as
low as 30 strokes to the minute. Penn
will havo a slight, ndvantago In tho fact
that they havo been. out on tho water
sovernl weeks longer than. Yale, so that
they havo had moro tlmo to got In some
cstra hard work. All of the Yalo men
appear to be carrying an extra amount
of beef, but this should come In handy If
the water should bo rough.

British Claim Prisoners Had to
Drink Blood and Boil
Hides for Food
LONDON, April 22. A neuter dispatch
from Cape Town, dcnllng with tho treat
ment of prisoners of war by the Germans
In -southwest Africa, says:
"A sensation has been caused by tho
publication of the official report ot the
commission of Inquiry Into tho treat
ment of prisoners of war by the Germans
In the Bouthwest Africa campaign, reveal
ing another story of shocking treatment
of British prisoners and showing a com
plete lack of organization or central
control,
"Food rations were coarse and became
so Insufficient thnt men were reduced to
waiting In lino to drink the blood of
slaughtered oxen and to bolting the soft
pait of hides to extract nourishment.
They wero scantily clad nnd harshly
treated, some being sent on long railway
journeys clad in a tunic, a short loincloth
nnd snntlnls nnd helmets, 'a spectacle,'
says the report, 'for women natives who
saw them on the road,' Tho Oerman
Governor, Seltz, ordered them placed in

In solitary confinement for bIx months
In a small cell of filthy sanitary con
ditio., a and Infested with vermin, and
threatened with confinement in a dark
cell If he dared to look out of the window,
"WhenipfilcerB complained to Governor
Seltz he told them they ought to be thank
ful for what they got.
"The Ill-treatment was not confined to
war prisoners. British civilians, who were
political prisoners, with women and chil
dren, were confined In common jails,
Bleeping 10 in a single cell with locked
doors, resulting in sickness and dysentery,
owing to the disgusting sanitary condi
tions. "The report was discussed In the House,
Assembly members demanding that he
guilty German officers be brought to jus
tice. "Gen. Louis Botha, in reply, deprecated
hate or revenge. He Bald that he had al
ready protested to the German authorities
and was In communication with the homo
Government, and added that, happily, the
prisoners had been released and were no
longer suffering."

PROBE MAYOR'S BOND STOCKS
Plans for Inquiry Into Business With,
City Under Way Old Ouster
v Decision Found
Plains for the legal Inquiry Into Mayor
Smith's ownership of the controlling In
terest in the bonding concern bearing his
name, which profits from the bonding of
municipal contractors ana officials, aro
well under way, but the Instigators of tha
move decline to reveal the steps decided
upon.
Although Robert S. Bright, president ot
the Democratic C)ub, who first proposed
that a nonpartisan commltteo of twelve
conduct the Investigation, declines to add
to previous statements It Is expected that
startling developments will take place
next week when the movement Is expected
to reach a 'head.
While plans were under way, an exx
amlnatlon of the records of the State Su
preme Court revealed the existence of u
decision with a more direct bearing on
the Mayor's position than any yet .dis
covered. In substance, the decision, handled down
two years ago, Is: "It Is a, violation of the)
ct of May 28, 1907. for a borough official
to be an employe) of any person who con
tracts with the borough. A Judgment of
ouster therefore was properly entered In a
quo warranto proceeding against a Chief
Burgess, where It appeared that, during
his term of office, he was employed by a.
newspaper that had furnished supplies
and materials to the borough,"
This old decision Is' taken tq have a
direct bearing on the case of Mayor SmUi
and wll be relied upop by the rneroheni of
the committee, who are preparing- to test
hia right to retain office and at the satna
time retain hla connection with tha
Thomas B. Smitn Bonding. Company.
