Tie Match Race Between the IIler and the
Cambria Postponed.
Contrary to expectation the match race between
the Idler and the Cambria did not come OF. The
terms OF the race included stipulation Of
at least an elght-knot breeze, but as that
desirable feature did not present itself In
Beyond question the race between the two
vessels was awaited with interest, and not little
disappointment was experienced on account OF its
adjournment. After the regatta on the previous day
the Cambria was to have anchored at the Horseshoe
all night In order to be in readiness for the start
when was set down for an early hour. Finding,
however, that all the other vessels had proceeded
TO the anchorage on the Cub house, Staten Island,
she followed IN their wake al late hour.
About hali-past ten O'Clock yesterday the owner
OF the Cambria was consulted as to whether the
race should be sailed but there being very little
wind at the time he declined to SAIL since there was
apparently no prospect OF the stipulation being
earned out. The Idler was nevertheless towed out
through the Narrows by its tender, the steam yacht
Mtnnehaha the Intention being TO be the ground
according to the announcement Until after mid
day there was nothing like an eightknot
breeze In the Narrows within which the con-
testants had all the morning been anchored,
and II was not until after two O'Clock that the pros
poets were encouraging. And thus the race did
not take place, but arrangement will be made to
have 1t decided at an early date, when the clrcum.
The great contest between the Magic and Cam
bria for fifty guinea cup will take place to-day,
