WHAT WILL DUNRAVEN DO?
His Confidence in the Valkyrie Not
Shared by the Squadron.

A London cable to the New York World says:
There is not the slightest intimation from any
authorized source that the royal yacht Squad
ron will not accept the terms of the new deed
Of gift, but from the very fact that there is no
one with the authority to do so who will con-
tradict the rumor has given credence to it.
Lord Dunraven is out Of town and will not be
back for two weeks. His private secretary and
confidential man, in telling the World CORES
pondent to-day the reason why he could not
say anything, left the distinct inference
that he had received a notification Of the re-
fusal from the squadron committee and was
waiting to see what Lord Dunraven had to
say about il.
The special committee appointed by the
yacht squadron to deal with the challenge con-
troversy refused to give any information. The
matter was the subject OF long and animated
discussion at u special meeting at Cowes on
Monday. The members who from the outset
have urged objections to the new deed of gift
were strong enough TO carry their point. There
Is no question that Lord Dunraven's confidence
in the Valkyrie's ability to do very much better
than she has done yet Ia not shared by his fell
low-members OF the squadron. Their main OBJ
lection to the new deed IL that IL the Ameri-
cams win this race under II the cup viii remain
