ARNST AT HOBART.
PROPOSED MATCH WITH BTJBNAN. HOBART, November 13. Arnst, who arrived by the Ruapehu from Capetown yesterday, was entertained by the Rawing Association. Interviewed, the champion said that his race with Barry was the hardest he had ever put up. He got three lengths from the jump, and it was that which secured him the victory. Barry's sprint came later, and he then had to row for all he was worth. He ■considered the Zambesi was too shallow, and the air in that locality too dry, to be suitable for hard racing. Speaking of Duraan's offer, Arnst stated that he had told him that he was perfectly willing to row, but that certain expenses must be found. Durnan had not replied, but he was willing to defend the championship in any part of the world provided the expenses were forthcoming. Arnst considers South Africa to be a grand country, and ultimately intends to settle there.
