Yale Declines Harvard's Proposition

A letter was received yesterday from Manager N. H. Swayne of the Yale Baseball club refusing the proposition made by Harvard, to arbitrate the matter of arranging a third game. This letter is withheld for the present until certain correspondence is looked up. It contains, however, practically the same arguments advanced by Yale in previous letters. These were clearly refuted in the last Harvard letter sent to New Haven and published in the CRIMSON of May 6. As matters now stand there is little probability of settling the championship this season if the two scheduled games result as they generally do. To avoid this Harvard has exhausted every means now at her disposal, except the one of giving in completely to Yale's unreasonable demand. There the question rests for the present, if not permanently.
