AMERICAS CUP SAFE
DUNRAVEN'S YACHT BEATEN FOR
The THIRD TIME.
But for the Tearing of tho vaikyrIe's
SILK Spinnaker She Might Have
Won-The vigilants
Close Call.

New YoRK, Oct. Is For the third
time the Vigilsnt passed the Valkyrie,
and the Americas cup will stay here
awhile yet. Plenty OF wind, splendid
sea and the almost ideal day for yacht
ing satisfied everybody. At the start
the yachts made a short run on the
starboard tack, but changing soon took
long run to port. The Valkyrie had
the lead from the start and kept it.
She turned the stake boat at 2:3S1a,
and the Vigilant followed at 2:35.
The Valkyrie at 2 :36 set her silk spin
maker, which glistened like sheet of
silver in the wind. The effect was ap-
parent Immediately. The Valkyrie
began to draw further away from her
rival, but the sheets OF the Vigilant then
went home, and che too leaped forward.
Then the Valkyrie doused her iib and
forestay sail, and set the balloon stay
sail in their place. The Vigilsnt hauled
her balloon jib slowly up and set it.
From that time it was a forsgone conclu-
sion that the Valkyrie would be beaten
again.
As the Vigilant drew up behind she
blanketed her rival and the silk spinnak'
er,ruffied. 1t was not long. however, be-
fore the Vigilant got out of her wind
and the sails filed once more. The esti-
mated three-quarters Of mile between
the two boats closed rapidly, and at 80
the Vigilant's bowsprit was abreast OF
the Vslkyrie, and few minutes later p
line of open water appeared between
the two vessels, this time with the
Vigilant in the lead.
How the people screamed and the
whistles blew Suddenly, at 3: :34, the
men on the Valkyrie were seen running
to and fro, and then a glance showed
that the silk spinnaker had split into
Tapping ribbons. 1t was quickly
brought down and another hoisted with
marvellous rapidity. Short as the delay
was, 1t is feared it lost the Valkyrie the
race, for the boats were very close to-
gether. Meanwhile the Vigilant was
driving along at furious rate, and
crossed the finish line the winner, ac-
cording to the corrected time, by 40
seconds.
1t was one of the finest races seen in
years. Forty seconds on a beat to wind
ward of % miles and return, is 80 close
that the splitting of the Valkyrie's
spinnaker might easily account for it.
The official record shows: Corrected
time, Valkyrie, 8 :25:19; Vigilant, 5 "a:
80. Elapsed time, Valkyrie, 1858 so I;
Vigilant, 324 :39; time passed fnish,

Employs Mixed Crews.
San Francisco, Oct. l3.--After re-
peated conferences with the Sailors
union, the Pacific Coast Steamship COM
pany has decided to stand by it's orig
inal intention OF selecting men regard
less OF ther Identification with the union
or non.union factions.
.sOur move in this direction wac not
instigated by the recent dynamite out
rage" said Captain Bennett, superin-
tendent OF docks. "Our great trouble
was in finding out who wac union man
and who was not. We were desirous oi
giving our old employees preference, and
sometimes this would interfere with the
union tag system, which compelled
every sailor belonging to the order to
secure employment in the order in
which he was numbered. When union
man was given preference over another
man who, according TO the associations
system, had number emitting him to
precedence, then there was trouble. The
lucky man would be expelled from the
union and consequently become non-
union seaman. Commencing from
today we will be guided in our selection
o. employees by the following rules:
"Men with families will be given
preference old employees especially,
and no distinction shall be made be-
tween union and non-union men. Hon
esty. sobriety and industry will be the
essential qualifications to enable man
to obtain employment on our wharves
or steamers"
