TUESDAYS RACE.
London Newspapers on the Defeat OF
their Crack Cutter.
New YORK, Sept. 9

NEW oRK, Sept y.
Considerable newspaper space was devoted
here yesterday to Tuesdays race. The News
said editorially:
The defeat of tine Galatea at New York
comes, after many triumphs in sport, to re-
mind US that we do not know everything.
That appears to be philosophic way of look
ing at it. Also it is philosophic to say that
lesson is involved in our very disaster, and
when both these things have been said the
unpleasantness of the defeat remains just as
great as ever. There is nothing for it, per
haps, but to go on getting beaten till we learn
the American secret OF build, though the
American yacht yesterday seems to have been
superbly handled. Above all we should say
that the secret is-popular interest. Yachting
is an aristocrstic sport in this country. In
America it is, within certain limits, sport Of
the people. 1t suits their labor loving gen.
ius. and for this reason is much more in
vogue than rowing. No true American likes
to do for himself what be can make the ele-
ments do for him. In the summer time the
bays and rivers Of the United States are alive

The Telegraph says:
England's champion is not noted so much
for speed a. for ability to thrash to windard
in a heavy sea, and it is conceded even by
the most thorough going admirers of the May
flower that, given certain conditions "a
ehoppy sea, heavy wind or course which
will require much tscking the Galstea
ought to have decidedly the best of il. The
Americans themselves have taken an extra
ordinary interest in the contest, and have
spared no effort to enable them to retain the
trophy of which they are 50 proud and which
they cherish so deeply.
The New York cable to the Standard seems
to charge that the Gslatea lost in consequence
OF big steamers swell checking the Gala
teas way, while the steamers lofty deck
houses kept off much of the wind, and rec
ommends that in future contests it would be
tsirer to both parties to arrange for all three
races to be sailed IN the open sea, where there
would be fewer craft to interfere with the rae
ing yacht.
