I1ANLAN AND o'CONNOR WIN. Somewhere about 15,000 people witnessed the great double scull race at Hamilton on Saturday afternoon for the world's championship. The. men were in good condition, and the water smooth, It was exactly 7 o'clock wheu a start wa@,at last made, and it was a beautiful ,one, Both ore ys , got away together, Rankin and O'Connor pulling 86 strokes to the minute, and Gaudaur and McICay 35. It was nip and tuck forthe first 300 yards, but after that point the Toronto double had the race well in hand. The mile post was passed in 5:25 by Hanlan and O'Connor, who were then over a length in,advance of their opponents, and pulling only 30 strokes to the minute, while Gaudaur and McKay were still pulling hard at 35. At the mile and a Half buoy the Toronto crew made a beautiful turn,while the !oaera in the race made a very ugly one, and lost fully a boat length by their poor work there. The mile and a half stake was reached by the winners in 8 minutes 35 seconds. On the home reach the leaders did not exert themselves to auy extent, and w hen within a quarter of a mile of the finish they stopped rowing and Hanlan dipped his hand into the bay. The losing crew were still pulling hard at.their old pace, and managed to gain a couple of lengths by this maneuver on the part of the Toronto crew. The result, however, was unchanged, and Hanlan and O'Connor arrived at the finish winners by fully .four boat lengths in 18 ' minutes 26i seconds. Many people were disappointed that the three -Mile -record was not lowered, and it is generally thought that the Toronto crew could have accomplished the feat had they wished to do so.
