...unavoidable. It was impossible for the races to be rowed yesterday afternoon, because by the time the wind had died down sufflciently, the tide was too low to admit of a fair race. The crews next the wall would have been in shallow water, and thus at a manifest disadvantage. In addition, the outside crews would have been favored by the full strength of the current. Neither could the races be rowed tomorrow, on account of the dual games with Pennsylvania. The adverse tides during the early part of next week would preclude a race at that time. So that...
