THE NEW YORK TIMES. SUNDAY. AUGUST 13. 1911'. JO II i-1 it i I HARMSW ORTH RACE SEPT.

Labor Troubles Delay Shipment of Speed Craft Nominated by Foreigner. As a result of the strike of the dock workmen In Kngland the forthcoming races for the British International Cup, otherwise known as the Harmsworth Trophy. bas been definitely postponed a week to enable the three English chal-lnsir to reach this country. The Motor Boat Club of America, which has charre of The contests, had selected August 24. 25.

and 28 aa the days for the holding of the race, but they have been postponed until Sept. 4. and because the challenger! cannot get here In time for the original dates. A meeting of the officer Of the Motor Uoet Club of America, haa been called for to-morrow afternoon, at which time action, will probably be taken to postpone the elimination races to the week previous to the International races. Tne elimination races were to have occurred next Wednesday.

Thursday, and Friday. Cables were received yesterday by Commodore H. IL Melville of the Motor Boat Club America from the British Motor Tacht Clob and the Koyal Motor Tacht Club requesting a postponement of the races on account of the labor troubles. The messages stated that the Maple Laf owned by R. Mackay Edgar, thWloneer.

the property ot the Duke of Westminster, and the Tyreless could not be shipped last week to New York, as had been expected. All three challengers, remain on the dock at London for five dayl ready to be placed on board the Baltic, bat when It came to placing them on hoard the steamship the dock, laborers refused to touch the boats. The Maple Lea? however, was stored on the Bailie after a great deal of trouble, but several of her parts were left behind. The labor situation at -London ws so serious that the owners of the boats shipped them to Liverpool, hoping that the -dock laborers there would be more considerate, but to no avail. Commodore Melville was Informed that the Pioneer mH TtivImu nroriablv would be shipped on board the Celtic of the White Star Une.

There was no assurance thut this could be dose, pending the strike troubles, and rather than have the challengers reach New York too late to start In the races the English clubs decided it would be better to ask for a post- Itonfment. would be a sportsmanlike act to postpono the races, said Commodore Melville yesterday. and as soon as 1 ran have a meeting- of the Board of Trustees of the Motorboat Club of 1 AniHiira will change the date of the contests to enable the foreign boats to compete In the best possible manner. I regret exceedingly that the challengers have been delayed on the other side, but we will not do anything that will In any manner interfere with the fastest boat winning the trophy." As several of the boats which have bern built for the elimination trial races are not ready, it Is prohable that the datrfs for the trials will also be put back a Week. Bo far the only boats completed rre the Dixie owned by Commodore Melville.

Vice Commodore Frederick K. Burn ham. and August Heckscher of the Motorboat Club of America, and the Viva, belonging to Rear Commodore J. Stuart Blackton of the same club. The other prospecive defenders have been delayed through labor- troubles, and a wrek'n delay probably will enable about nine fivers to take part In the elimination trials.

The Viva was launched on last Thurs-datfrom the yards tf the Emerson of Va- tew hours later the new craft -was ent-on a trial trip, with Commodore Blackton at he'wheeL The showing was satisfactory every way, and the next day it was announced by the builders that the Viva had averaged fifty miles an hour on a measured course. The Viva Is only 82 feet on deck, and the time is the fastest that has ever been shown by a craft of her sixe In the world. The time has only been exceeded In this country by the a 40-foot boat, which logged off fifty-two miles an hour in a trial run several weeks ago. The fastest time ever made by a praaoltne-driven craft any place was rattled off by the Mnple Leaf which covered one mile on the Solent the marvelous rate of fifty-nine statute i.es an hour. Commodore Blackton is confident That International courae.

If the Viva qualifies for the American team she will be the smallest boat In the race In over-all length, but in horn power she will rate with any of the othfra. At the office of Tnms, Lemolne Crane, which firm designed the Dixie 1t tts said that the. damage sustained by the boat in her maiden race for the Gold Challenge Cwp on the Pt. Lawrence River last Tuesday is of no importance and can be repaired in time for the flyer to make tho elimination trials, The-Plxle's oil feed pump ran dry, causing 'the forward engine to burn out the henrlngs.

Bhe was withdrawn from the other races and Immediately shipped to the Electric Launch Works at Rayonne, to have new bearings adjusted. The ordinal announcement from En stated that the Zigorella. belonging to Daniel Hanbury, had been named as riie-ef the British challengers, but yester-r cables from the Royal Motor Yacht Club and the British Motor Yacht Club Ftnted thnt the Tyreless would be the third boat. The latter Is a hydroplane, and llillc Is known on this side about her speed abilities.

THE HARMSWORTH TROPHY. International Prize Represents Supremacy on the Water. The Brltlah International Trophy represents supremacy In speed on the water. It stands In the field of motor boating exactly as does the America's Cup In the field ot yachting, the Palma Trophy In that of rifle ahootlng, and the International Polo Cup In that of polo playtng.

It Is a challenge trophy, subject to contest every year, and It haa been won and held during Its life by boats representing three different countries. It Is eight years old, and has been raced for seven times. The a Cup. as an international -four year, old. challenge trophy, Is fifty and haa been the object of contention twelve Tte Harmsworth Cup, or British International Trophy, was made to the order of Sir Alfred Harmsworth, nowLord Northcllffe, In 1903, and waa placed In the hands of the Motor Tacht Club of Great Britain, aa custodian In the first Instance, and.

generally speaking, as trustee. The deed of girt stipulated that the trophy should be open for competition every year between boats representing different countries, each country limited to three boats, which must be built In every part in the country they represented. It was further stipulated that the overall length of boats competing should not be more than twelve metres something less than forty feet. Thia figure haa oeen modified of late so that the extreme length la now fixed at forty feet, it was also stipulated that there hould be no restriction whatever aa to raotive power, either in sise, number of motors, or horse power, provided that it is wholly mechanical. The first race, which waa held In 1903, hardly an International race.

Inasmuch aa none but Knglish boats competed for it. There waa an entry from Germany, but the hull of the German boat was pest rove bv fir amvIkh. frnch hull was substituted, but! the boat was then disqualified, as riba waa A tva will Ihnw miirh faiitr nftar tuning wnrk rvr Kh has hMn wi shipped to" Huntlnrton Bay: L.

I5be was the sensation of the year in motor boating, as her engine was considered something exceptionally large and powerful for a boat of forty-foot length.

Her beat speed was not so great possibly twenty-five mile per hour but even that speed In 1SXM was considered extraordinary. France entered three boats, and England was represented by a similar number. The race was held In the Solent and was run in heats. Challenger had some difficulty with her Ignition apparatus, and in the first heat was defeated by an English boat, which in turn was put out of the race In the semi-final heat because of a bad leak. Napier Minor an English boat defeated in the semi-finals was pitted against a French boat In the final race and won, but a protest to the effect that having been beaten In the semifinal she was not qualified to appear In the final race, was sustained, and the race, together with the trophy, was awarded to the French boat, Trefle-a-Quatre.

Thus. In the first event, the trophy passed by virtue of a technicality, and not to the fastest boat In li5 there was a race for the trophy at Arcnchon, France, which was not a very interesting affair, as the only French boat to appear was a cruiser unfitted for the purpose, and the trophy was recaptured for England bv Napier II. America took no part In this contest, nor In that of 190ft, which was held In England. A challenge was sent on behalf of the original Dlxlo In the year last named, but the boat did not go abroad, and non but English boats participated In the race, which therefore was virtually an exhibition affair. But rn 1907.

the original Dixie, owned at the time by Commodore J. Schroeder of the Motor Boat Club of America, crossed the ocean and beat three English boats, thus winning the trophy on behalf of America. Dixie's engine wan of about ISO horse power. The skipper of the American boat had hardly reached New York with the trophy before a challenge was received from the Motor Yacht Club of Great Britain for a race to be held In 100S, and in August of that year two British boats. Wolseley Slddeley, owned by the Duke of Westminster, and Daimler owned by Lord Howard de Walden.

both representing the Motor Yacht Club of Great Britain, came to Huntington, L. and made an attempt to capture the trophy. Mr. Schroeder had built a new boat, which he had christened Dixie and two or three other craft were constructed largely for the purpose of co-operating In the defense. The result of trial races, held shortly before the International event, proved that Dixie II.

was the only boat of the several new ones st all qualified to race against the Englishmen, but as each country was entitled to three boats, two others one a speedy AO-foot boat named Den, and another 40-foot er called U. 8. which had made a good record the year previous, were allowed to start to complete a full team. The course measured ten nautical miles, and the racers went around It three times, making total of tr lrty miles. Dixie took the lend at the mitsot a nit vr lost It She completed the race In 1 hour 4 minutes 67 seconds, and finished 48 seconds ahead of WoleIey Srtdlev.

The r.ngitsnmen went to what they considered the limit of weight in their engines in reaching out for the highest power possible, and then built a hull of a form necesxary to hold and "float" the motive machinery.

-The Motor Yacht Club of Grva Britain again sent a challenge In lnon, but as the time for the race approached, the challenge was withdrawn, as no new boat had been built for the nurnose. and It waa not considered expedient to send any of the In 1910 two challna-Mi wn One from the British fotor Tina fluh arul the other from the Motor Yacht Club of Great and three boata wr nrnt 1 over Pioneer and 7.1a-nw.lln I and Zigorella. representing ureat Britain, tne British the dfenw CUD wan confined matnlv ts, Motor Boat Club of America, and even in that club Was dormant a th. ti-. receded In the Winter Vi mere was an awakening In tne Spring following, and In April construction work waa begun on several defenders, but it was labor lost.

CHANNEL BASS AND RED DRUM RUNNING i Shore Fishing for Big Species Now Popular AIong New Jersey Coast. Sptciat to Tht Krm York Tims.

MANABQUAN INLET, N. Aug. 12. The red drum and channel base the dls- ftn. ictlon should be noticed are now rnn- ng along shore, and for the rest of ass belongs to the weakflsh family, or, rather, the same family tha the weak- Is a member of.

and Is frequently called red drum eo closely related to it tbatXthe term red la applied to It so that It shall not be confused with the black drumA i Ot late anglers have been saying; that the red drum and the channel bass are not one and the same fish; also that the black drum Is a near relative. This Is the season to prove It, for now all three fish are biting. There Is no question that there Is a difference between the black drum and the channel bass, but It has frequently been stated that the red drunv so-called. Is the chan nel bass, which name tached to this drum. la.

frequently at- A member of the Aabury Park Fishing Club, B. Clapp, recently caught a red drum, not a channel bass, and although both fish are similar be found these distinctions: Both fish have the: same beautiful red bronze color. The red drum, however, lacks the black spot on the tall. All channel bass are so marked. The red bass la humpbacked, like the male sea bass In August.

The channel bass baa not the hump. Also It has not a beard. The red drum has. Mr. Clapp's red drum weighed oil pounds, and the fish Is now being mounted in New York, to be placed beside a big channel bass already mounted In the clubhouse at Aabury Park.

In this way Mr. Clapp hopes to make his point, aa to their being distinct fishes, clear to any observer. Members of the Asbury Park Fishing Club hav always contended that the red drum and the channel bass, while similar, are two distinct species. For this club early la September makes an annual pilgrimage to Barnegat Bay to lure the channel bass from Its inlet home. These men spend two weeks In the year angling for the red warrior of the Atlantic Coast, and if they get one fish a day each man thinks he is lucky." Here Is a score for -two weeks' fishing of red drum and channel bass, which tells its own story Weight of Six Heaviest Angier.

And strange to say, the fish have been coming to the New Jersey waters for years, particularly at Angle-sea, Barnegat Bay, and Forked River. The tuna also has been seen and known, to be In the New Jersey waters, and yet It was only Last year that this fish was angled for with rod and line and actually taken. There may be no new things under the sun, but the descendants of Isaak Walton find or make new discoveries all the time regarding the Inhabitants of the sea.

The red drum fish range In weight from to 65 and even 70 pounds, so that Capt. Fennlmore'a 73-pound fish was a sockdolager." An interesting thing Is that the small fish do not seem to migrate north, or if they do they do not take the angler's bait. Usually the fish taken weigh from 10 to 60 pounds. Probably because the young red drum do not look like the adult fish they are not generally recognised in the North. The gamest of the three fish now biting on the New Jersey coast, along shore and in the deep Inlets, Is naturally the channel bass.

Next comes the red drum and the black drum, which weigh up to 100 pounds, end are great destroyers of oysters. So much eo that oyster men frequently have asked State Fish and Game commissions for permission to use dynamite In their oyster beds so that these fish may be driven off. Ernest Ingersolt tells of a memorable visit of black drum to Prince's Bay when there were great fields of oysters there. He says that the planters in Prince's Bay, fearing another visit the following year, anchored shingles and pieces of waste tin on their beds, scattering them at short Intervals In the hope that their, dancing, glittering surfaces might act as scarecrows to frighten the fish away. "Whether as an effect of this, or because of a general absence, no more drum appeared that year.

Sometimes more time is required, but It has not the leaping or resisting powers of the tarpon or the tuna, an incident of which was reported in Thh Truss on Friday kept a tuna angler at work, for seventeen hours. Mr. Clapp's red drum, referred to In ths beginning of this article, required forty minutes to land.

He himself doubts If a channel bass of the same sise could be landed as hooked In that many minutes, particularly with the tackle he used. He caught this 52-pound red drum with this rig: The rod was a medium weight surf rod, made of Greenheart, with tips running close to six feet. In weight It balanced the scales at 12 ounces. The line used was 12-thread linen and No. 6-0 O'Shaughnessy hook.

Ten Boats In Handicap Event of the National Yasht Club. Seven power and three sail raft started in the Fire Island race of the National Tacht Club yesterday.

The starting line was off Westlawn. the Beneonhurst home of the organization. The windjammers were sent away at 9:40 o'clock in the morning in a fresh breese from the southeast. As the wind held from that quarter throughout the day, the Balling division had a stiff beat for almost the entire distance to the light vessel. The division waa made up of J.

Michel's Harpoon, which Is the. scratch boat; M. M. Gerhard's Vorant, which has an allowance of 1:03:00 for the eighty four-mile course, and -Fleming's Flamingo. The last-named boat has an allowance of 1:43 K.

The boats all maoe an excellent start and stood down the bay on the starboard tack. The course taken from Westlawn to and around West Bank Light. Fire Island Light, and back to Westlawn. again rounding the West Bank Light. The power division has the same courae.

The race Is for erulsing boats of from 30 to 100 feet, over-all measurement. In the class were H. A. Johnson's Inevitable, scratch; F. D.

Gheen's Kitsix, which receives R. Henke's Suls Mol. with an allowance of R. 8. Mills's Can-adlce, which gets' a handicap of F.

S. Salomon's Bedouin, with an allow ance of LMa which belongs to C. P. Holland and receives 3:12:11. and G.

W. Hoertel's Frances which Is given 6:24:11 over the course. Although Kitsix and Inevitable are called cruising boats, and are entitled to race, they are entirely too fast for the other craft. As a result, the National Yacht Club has offered a prise for a special class made up of the other five boats that started. These craft also race under handicap.

Kitsix was the first of the power boats to finish. The craft was timed at 7:29:40, having taken 8:10:40 to cover the 84-mile course. Kitsix received a handicap of 29:21. which made her corrected time 7:50:19. Inevitable, the scratch boat, was timed at 7:30:40.

Her elapsed and corrected times are 8:20:40. The boats brought back word that 8uls Mot had broke down five miles this side of Fire Island Lightship and had to put into Jones Inlet. Canadice arrived at 0:21:18, having taken 10:11:18 to cover the course. Her corrected time Is 8:22:30. In all probability Kitsix has won first prize.

The Regular and Canadice have taken the special class. Up until a late hour last night nothing was heard of the windjammers. THISTY COBB NO WONDER. Young Boxer Outpointed by Johnny Dundee at Fairmont A. C.

Ty Cobb, a new addition to the fistic world, did not live up to his namesake's reputation in baseball In his bout last night at the Fairmont Athletic Club with Johnny Dundee, and was consequently outpointed In what was to be the star attraction. From the start until the conclusion of the ten rounds Dundee showered Cobb with a volley of left-hand jabs, and soon had him on the defensive. Cobb wat game and always willing to mix matters, but could not get to his opponent effectively, landing only a few blows that had effect, and at no. time did be have Dundee in danger. Toward the end the work of Dundee began to tell on Cobb, and be Just managed to last until the final bell.

The semi-final, also of ten rounds, was by far the best of the programme. In which Happy Hayes gained the decision over Mike Malia. The bout was full of action from the start, with both boys working hard. Hayes landed repeatedly with a straight left jab which always checked the hard rushes of Malia. Malta was the stronger of the two and did most of the forcing, but could not find his opponent at the desired time.

In the opening number George Gordon had little difficulty In defeating Joe Fisher over the ten-round route. In the opening -round Fisher was sent to the mat three times with well-directed right-hand, smashes on the jaw, and in the fourth round Fisher was dropped by Gordon. Fisher displayed great gameness, and came back strong In the closing rounda NOTES OF THE BOXERS. According to a dlapatch from ths Coast, Abo Attell has denanried a guarantee ot 810.000 for a bout with Joe Rivera, the Mexican featherweight. Rivers is regarded now as the moat likely successor to the preaent champion and Attell evidently -bo-Ilevea In being well paid for any desperate chance he may take of losing tho title.

New York fistic fana are much interested tn the coming of Carl Morris, the moat-talked-of white hope now In tho rinir. Morris la due to arrive In New -Tork Thursday or Friday, and he will take part In soma bouts In the East before returning to Oklahoma. His first encounter will be with Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman, befora one of tha local clubs next month. This bout waa originally scheduled tor the West, but opposition from the civil authorltlea forced a postponement. Any boat In which Morris take part will undoubtedly draw a full house hore.

simply to see tho big fellow la action, Frankle Bum ths Jersey City bantamweight, has been matched with Charlie Harvey Philadelphia for a ten-round bout before ths Atlantic Athletic Club of Rockaway Beach on Aug. 25.

Tha club offers 70 per cent, of tho receipts to the boxers and has promised Packey to get the best lightweight In Australia aa hla opponent, thus insuring a large attendance. Emll Thlry, who looks after McFarland's Interests, Is undecided about accepting the offer. McFarland was offered a bout with Matt Walla before the Madison A C.

of this city on Aug. 29. but he had to decline. Wolgast has promised to engage in no matches until attar his bout with McFarland In Milwaukee next month, so Packey la turning down all offers for bouts befora that time.

Race Week Series. The matching of the four fastest steam yachts 10 tho world by the Kegatta Committee of the Atlantic Yacht Club, Dr.

3. E. De Aland. Walter Sykes, and Carlos De Zafra, seems to have become a certainty through the acceptance of two of the boats, and every Indication points to the others doing likewise. club has offered an unusually valuable trophy for a race with the Sovereign, Vitesse, Winchester, and Tarantula as the principals.

This event will help to make the most Important series, ever held by the Sea Gate organisation, and Its race week, which begins Aug. 22, promises to bring together every sail craft of importance In the country. Not, for years has any attempt been made to bring together the fastest of the steam In 1904 the Tarantula and Niagara IV. raced, and there was also a great race between Kanawa and Hau-oll. The matching of the windjammers, high-speed power bodes, cruising craft, and auxiliaries are the usual.

fixtures the season. It Is, therefore, thought that the matching of the four boats mentioned will bring about a contest which will be of International Importance, as two of the boats were built abroad. The race will probably be decided over the Sandy Hook course, made famous by the many races for the America's Cup. M. CD.

Borden, owner of Sovereign, waa the first to express hla willingness to take part In the race. Sovereign is said to be the fastest yacht In the world. The boat waa built this year for the express purpose of keeping the blue ribbon of the yachting seas in the hands of Mr. Borden, The yachtsman was the owner of Little Sovereign, but upon the appearance of Vitesse, Mr. Borden at once ordered a new craft.

Sovereign was built thia Spring by Charles L. Seabury Co. at Morris Heights. She was guaranteed for So miles speed, which was exceeded In the builders' trial trips. The craft is 166 feet in length.

16 feet 6 inches beam and 4 feet 6 inches Sovereign has two Seabury water-tube boilers using coal for fuel. The engines are of the Sea bury high-speed reciprocating four-cylin- I n.lnAlr.ol four smoke stacks, she being the only private yacht In the world so fitted. William K. Vanderbilt. is the other yachtsman who haa signified his intention of starting In the contest.

Mr. Vanderbilt is the owner of the world-famed Taran-" tula. In stating that, he will compete, Mr. Vanderbile announces that he does not think his craft would have any chance over a short course with the more modern fliers. He, however, proves ois sporting blood by his willingness to take part in the struggle.

Tarantula was built in 1002 by Yarrow A Co. of England. The craft is 153 feet 6 Inches In length. 15 feet 6 Inches beam and draws 7 feet of water. Tarantula Is easily recognized on account of her resemblance to a torpedo boat, both tn type and color.

She is fitted with two Mosher water-tube boilers and three sets of Parsons marine steam turbines. Her present boilers were Installed since her famous race against Howard Gould's Niagara and these and other changes make her nresent speed unknown. Tarantula undoubtedly will be the dark horse of the struggle. The other craft that have been asked to take part are Vitesse, the property ot Gen. Brayton Ives, and Winchester, which belongs to Peter W.

Rousa Both are famous craft. Vitesse was built to beat Little Sovereign by Charles L. Seabury Co. Her guaranteed soeed waa 32 miles an hour, the same as Winchester, but the boat has done considerably better under forced draught. The boat Is said to be as fast as Sovereign, and a race between the two will create unusual Interest in the world of boats.

The power plant of Vitesse consists of one Seabury water tube boiler of the coal-burning type, and two sets of Seabury type steam engines, four cylinders, triple expanding and of the reciprocating type. Her distinguishing marks are three smoke Stacks. The boat has shown unusual speed, and In informal brushes It is said that she has beaten Winchester: The owner of the latter craft is of a different opinion, and he claims to be faster than Vitesse. Winchester, undoubtedly, is the most Interesting craft of the quartet. Her speed limit is unknown.

Last Saturday the boat broke all records for a run from the New Tork Tacht Club's station in the East River to Newport. The craft was built In 1900, by Yarrow in u-iasgow, ana naa a guaranteed speed or thirty-two miles an hour. She is furnished with a power plant consisting of two water tube boilers of the Yarrow type, using crude oil as fuel. In this respect she has a decided advantage over the boats that burn coal on account of her uniform fires. Her machinery consists of three sets of Parsons Marine type of steam turbines.

In length Winchester Is 165 feet over all, 15 feet 0 Inches beam, and draws 9 feet of water. She has two smokestacks and a long, low hull. It la generally conceded that on account of their greater draught the foreign boats will have aa advantage. Their propellers are much deeper In the water, so there Is not so much chance of them to run wild or race In a seaway. The date of the contest haa not yet been announced, but the race will take place during the annual race week of the Atlantic Yacht Club.

DE ROSIER COMING HOME. Motorcycle Champion Defeats Best EngJIsh Riders at Brooklands. Jake De Hosier Is on his way back to America with the world's professional motorcycle track championship In his possession. His victory at Brooklands, England, over k. corner, tne cngiian champion.

In addition tO De Roster's records American built motor-' cycles took first second, and third orer- a field of slity-seven starters In the Tourist Trophy race. Ds Rosier broke the world's record fori the mile and the kilometer with a flying start, covering a mile In 40 4-0 seconds, at a rate of 88.24 miles an hour,) and the1 kilometer in 25 1-5 seconds, at a rate of 88.77 miles an hour. 1 Do Rosier Is expected to appear In a number of exhibitions upon bis return to this country, and some of-the other, fast motorcyclists are preparing to take him on for some lively contests. Events are already being arranged by the Riverside Motordrome In Chicago, where Graves.

Balke. MitchelL Albright, and Walters have been riding for some time. Motorcycle racing has taken hold on popular fancy and new tracks are springing up all over the country. The Federation of American Motorcyclists is keeping In close touch with all the developments of the game with a view to having the sport clean. Race sanctions are being issued by 4he Federation of American Motorcyclists' Competition Committee, of which Dr.

J. P. Thornley Is Chairman. HALF-MILE TRACKS BARRED. A.

A. A. Will Not Sanctlton Auto Races for Short Dirt Courses. DETROIT, 12. Sanction for automobile contests on one-half-mlle tracks hereafter will be refused by the General Rules Committee of the Manufacturers' Contest Association, which has just closed Its session here.

At the same time the safeguarding of one-mil dirt courses was assured. Strict enforcement of the new regulation is expected to greatly reduce the number ot fatalities among drivers who compete in races on the mile horse tracks. Promoters of meets on one-mile tracks came in for considerable attention on the part-of the committee members, and in the future they will be compelled to live up to a strict interpretation of the rules, under penalty of disbarment from the racing game. It waa decided to htre a competent man to make a rigid inspection ot each circular courae before a sanction is. granted, and this official win be held responsible by the Contest Board of tne American Automobile Association.

GRAVESEND BAY REGATTA. F. G. Stewart's Princess Wins Feature Event by Twenty Seconds. In a snappy breeze from the southeast, the yachtsmen of the (Jravesend Bay trict sailed the seventh regatta to count on the yacht racing" championship of ths lower bay under the auspices ot the National Yacht Club, yesterday.

It was th midsummer regatta of the organization, and with the exception of the dinghy class of the New York Canoe Club, there was an excellent representation of craft. For some unknown reason, not a dinghy started. It was an Ideal day for a race Regatta Committee, made up of peter Bentley, Chairman, t-nd Harvey ant. fin, set the course signals on board of Mr Benuey's Perl the regatta boat of the afternoon. Perl n.

-was anchored mid-way on the Sea Gate-Bensonhurst leg 0f the course. The committee decided to give the classes a race made up of run to Benson hurst, a reach serosa th channel to Craven Shoals, a beat to Buoy 14, a run to Sea Gate, and a broad reaca home. Grayjacket had the best of the start la the class. The boat, however, did not aall the right course, and Instead of xolnr across the channel after turning the Beneonhurst mark, Grayjacket squared away for Fort Hamilton. The error cost the yacht considerable time, and in aU probability the race.

The division was taken by F. G. Stewart's Princess. It was th first time that the Long Island Sound boat has won on Gravesend Bay this year. Princess Just managed to beat out Alice by 20 seconds for first place The racing in the handicap class was unusually close.

Joy was the first boa. to finish, with Clare and Mlana close prize went to Mlana by seconds, with Joy second and Clare third. Dr Atkinson Cyrio scored an easy win In the 3 class, and among the knockabouts of Gravesend Bay Slow Poke won after Skylark had had a comfortable lead at the end of the first round.
