More New Yachts,

NEW YORK, Oct. H.-Most of the members
Of the New York Yacht Club are, It is said,
in favor of all altering a new deed of gift of
the Americas cup SO as to make it possible
to accept the Earl of Dunravens challenge.
Mat Herreshoff, the designer, and builder,
has said that in case the challenge is ac-
cepted he can build three boats of the size
required in time to meet the challenger 1t
is altogether likely that he would have that
many orders. General Paine might have q
boat built at Lawleys' in Boston, but if
Archibald Rogers. Edwin d. Morgan and
August Belmont decide to build-and thew
are almost sure to do so-Herreshofris is likely
to get the order.
