The Earl of Dun raven said the object of the report was an excellent one, though it had not led to; much. Everybody would like tt encourago racing for outclassed boats, which were at present plated at a great disadvantage, lcanse as designers had not 'exhausted their powe.rs of designing still faster boats owners must now keep on building. Very desirable vessels were thus outclassed, and if something could bo done to bring'them together there would bo plenty of good racing got out of them. The handicap classes, however, did not Gil last year. Admiral Hallowes said tho clubs offered prizes for htndictp races last tea ton.

but the boat did not and his thought this failure was sufficient to justify the conference in rejecting the committee recommendation: Mr. 1. Perceval thought tlcro were not. enough beat of this class. Several delegates suggested that the handicap classes should be left to the individual clubs to deal with, and the chaincan, remark irg that this appeared to be the prevailing opinion, pat the question in that form, and it waa so agreed to.

The conference committee recommended that the number of paid hand should be limited in the 10, l.and rating classes, acccrd iog to the cumbers set down, and considerable debate etitucdi it leing urged, on the band, that amateurs could not always be obtained to the other, that the unlimited eronbyment of paid hands made racing very expensive, and gave an to rich ownerst over the poorer ones. Eventually the recommendation was adopted en a division. Mr. Montgomery asked how it was to le enforced. The Earl of Dun raven.

I do not know at all. (Laughter.) A recommendation as to fixed sums being paid for racing money to paid hands, independent of the value ot according to a scale Jaid down, was rejected. Clauses, a to the qualification of helmsmen, the amount of money to be deposited with protests, time limit for Taces, and other points were discussed, and it was further resolved to admit 20 raters into tho Solent iclastet, though not neccsssrilr to their racing to the Solent, the Earl of Dunraven saying tcey could go to uo lxames, come nacs to tto fioieni aad altogether latter it a faster greyhound than his kennel com Ution Pree Kick, but not such an artist with the tare. There is no doubt, however, that the 4 undecided Fellow Faster had taken a little of the tteel out of him, although the second spin was Btre racing stretch.

She was by far the bardes run of any of the 64, and it wa wondertul to tnd her going with such fire in tbe final ttages after having beep nearly run to a standstill on Friday evening. It the second time that Ivan the Great htt got into the last four, and he ran a good, honest rrevhound throughout. In spite of all difhculties, ererythicg was perfectly arranged, and regrets were rtneral that it is the last time Mr. Harold Broekle bmk will have the direction of affairs in the capacity honorary secretary.

BUGBY UNION BULES. Scotland v. IbelandI Aftcr Ireland's victory over England it was quite natural that their other game should lie watched with largely increased interest, and "on Saturday, at the Lantdowne road ground, Dublin, from 8,000 to 10,000 people were present to Sec the match with Scotland, tbe company including the Lord Lieutenant and suite Neither side played the team originally chosen, but Scotland were the more unfortunate in this respect, for. there were missing from their ranks such fine players as Neil ton and Goirans, of Cambridge. The weather was beautiful, and tho ground appeared to be in excellent order.

Ireland wtro left tho conqueror after a splendid game by ono goal to nothing. With the wiud at their backs, they bad the better Of tbo earlier play. The rushes of their forwards were very brilliant, and Tuke, the half hack, kept 'the three quarters very busy. Tho Scottish defence was strong, and their forwards often cleared in capital style, with Boswell generally heading the dribbling. Thero were several kicks at both goals but the side changed position without anything having been teored.

At tho beginning of tbo seeond period the Scotsmen nearly got in, and thev might also have scored from mark." Then Tuke started a rush that was taken op byJtbe Irish forwards, and for a while the visitors' defensive were severely taxed. A long kick by Boswell sent the ball to tbe other end, aud the tame player soon afterward teemed to have a clear run in, but ho preferred to drop at and the result was failure. Scotland continued to force the game, and Boswell made a splendid attempt to drop a goal. Subsequently Tuko played brilliantly for and it was he who had a big share in the try gained by Wells, after a series of passes among tho three quarters and balf baeks. John Lyttle placed tho goal.

Tho home sido again attacked sharply, but could not score anything else, and when no tide came Ireland were left with the victory by one goal to nothing. As in the match against England, the Irish forwards had no small share iu tho success. Mr. U. L.

THE FKOFVSUD IA'CKHASE IA' THE NAVY. The council of the International Arbitration League have issued a statement, in which they say that during the recent naval debate in Parliament it was asserted that the demand for increasing the Navy arose from external, pressure. They therefore resolved, to test the opinions of working jnen upon the subject, and with that object in view they forwarded copies of an address to Mr. Gladstone, with an invitation to sign it, to a number of representative working men, nearly every one of them being officers in the trade societies of carpenters, engineers, tailors, cabinet makers, labourers, shoemakers, bricklayers, blacksmiths, and others who' attended tho last Trade Union Congress. The council knew nothing of the political opinions of.

those so addressed. Only 13 returned negative replies; The address, which bears about 470 signatures, says Five years ago, in compliance with an alarmist outcry on the part of the admirals and the Jingoes the Houte of Commons passed the Naval Defence Act, by which it was provided, that beyond the ordinary shipbuilding vote for the year, 21 millions should be expended in additions to the Navy between 1889 and 184. We pointed out at the time that the inevitable result of this would be a mad race between the nations for naval supremacy, anda ncw demand for more battleships and cruisers at home as sounas the Naval Defence Act had expired. This is exactly what has happened Tho alarmist hsve raited a new scare based upon estimates of the efficiency of foreign navies which are strongly contested by competent authorities in the countries concerned, and yet it is announced that within tho next three years the British fleet will bo augmented by enprinous and extravagant additions. Alreadv these proposals have resulted in a cry for tho increase of Continental fleets.

The French lleet, it is proclaimed, must not only be placed in a ttato of efficiency, but largely increased in order to vie with our own efforts, so that at the end of threo years the competitors in this ruinous race of armaments will bo relatively in much the same position as while each will have expended many millions at the cost of the taxpayers'. In the meantime, we have no cause of quarrel with any Continental Power, neither has any Con tinental Power any cause of quarrel with us, save that wo still occupy Egypt, a country which wo have repeatedly pledged ourselves to evacuate. Undoubtedly wc have done good work in Egypt, but the prolonged delay in redeeming our promise has created a false impression as to our intentions. Let us try and remove that impression by placing Egypt under an international guarantee, and then taking our departure. Wo should then be in a position to avoid a ruinous policy of continued augmentations.

Every country in Europe is groaning beneath the weight of taxation, which is a cause of widespread social revolt in England trade is shrinking; but our (expenditure conf stantly increases. Already we tpend millions year upon our Navy, and ot that sum moro than six miUions Upon shipbuilding and naval armaments. To satisfy the alarmists we must not. only keep up the building of new ships on tho scale of the haval Defence Act, bat add something like 1J millions more every year.To the industrial classes, save those engaged on the manufacture of ships and guns, this means not only a smaUer demand for productive labour, but the abandonment of practical schemes for the social well being of the peopU. such as old age pensions, the multiplication of small holdings, That France, Russia, and other Powers have since the passing of the Naval Defence, Act been striving to overtake' us in the mad race for armaments we are fully aware.

We set 'them the example, and because they have followed it another demand is being made for a repetition of 'the folly indeed, every nation attempts to justify its increase of armaments on the ground that it is only doing what other have done. Against this continual aggravation of the disease we enter our protest, and respectfully urge that instead of continuing the evil, an attempt should be made to cure it by her Ma jety' Government inviting the Power to eonfer as to the best mean of effect ing a mutual redaction of armaments. If any nation related such friendly invitation, the world would then know which was the culprit and where the real danger lay." Miu Robzbt Reid.

Alderman Sir James Whitehead, M.P., who pretided, said that at the closing meeting of tho fund tho eup was given to bo thot for annually by the metropolitan regiment under conditions to bo arranged by the National Biflo Association. The association, however, wcroa unable, by their rales to accept a prixe under such stipulations, as they did not. restrict their competitions to.

any particular district. He thought, in these circumstances, seeing that the fund was the indirect means of fully equipping the Volunteers of the wholo kingdom, and was subscribed to by persons from all parts, the cup might bo throws open to Volunteer corps from all parts. Un the motion of Col. Routledgo the meeting adopted' this suggestion, and at tho instance of Col. Stanley Bird it was resolved 'that the contest should be arranged on such conditions as the National Rifle Association might from time to time decide.

Col. Haddan, who expressed a hope that the cup would bo offered for field firing, mentioned that Sir James Whitehead had, of his own motion, increased the value of the prize to 130 or 150, instead of 50 voted from the fond. The meeting separated after passing a vote of thanks to Sir J. Whitehead for his liberality. JVY LEAF.
