Lines Drawn for the Next Americas
Cup Challenger.
TO Be 90 FEET ON THE WATER LINE
Work on the New Craft VIII
Begin at Once.
RACE ASSURED FOR 1895

NEW YORK, October 16.-A cablegram
from Gourock, Scotland, says:
1t may now be taken for granted that
Designer Watson has the lines all out for
an Americas cup challenger for 1895. and
just now Henderson OF Patrick is prepar-
ing to see Lord Dunraven and has talked
the matter over with him.
On most reliable authority the statement
is made that Lord Dunraven decided that
his first Valkyrie, which measured 20 feet
on the water line was hardly large enough
for his all-around purposes. Consequently
his idea was to challenge this year with an
S0-footer. He held strongly to this notion
until little more than a month ago, when
he learned that Fife had an order for a
boat over 90 feet and that James Gordon
Benefits new boat also would turn out to
be 9O-footer.
In the latter event he saw but little
chance for an S0-footer on the other side
to win the cup, and being bound by his own
precedent which allowed all American
boats available for the defense of the cup
to be counted in again, he wisely decided
to go the limit length and build 90-footer.
thus asking no favors of the New York
Yacht Club as to the length.
In fact, there are many here who believe
that Watson himself prefers 80 to a 10
footer.
Work on the boat will commence at once,
and the challenge may be sent little
ahead Of the official required time.
Watson will say nothing about his new
order, except that she will no doubt go
across and sail for the cup.
1t goes without question that, as in the
case of the Thistle, an attempt will be
made to build her in secret.
In building a O-footer Lord Dunraven
has gone to the limit of the new deed Of
gift and consequently need have no fear Of
existing boats.

THE RIVER FRONT IMPROVEMENT
Progress of the Work Mai. Davis
Monthly Report.

Maj. Davis of the engineer corps has
made report to the chief of engineers of
operations for the improvement of the Po-
tcmac river during the month of September.
In execution of the project for deepening
the Georgetown and Washington channels
and improving the fats there has been
dredged channel from $50 to $50 feet wide
and twenty feet deep through the bars be-
tween Georgetown and Giesboro' Point. As
this channel has filled up above the Long
bridge IT has been redredged there sew
erai times, and a training dixie has been
built with a view of reducing the deposit.
In the Washington channel the navigation
channel was dredged to width of $50 feet
and depth of twenty feet. The ruling
depth. however. was decreased to about
eighteen feet by the freshet of June 2 lssg.
The area between the navigation channels
and the wall on section Ill has been dredg-
ed to a depth of twelve feet The redrade
ing of the navigation channel between the
Long bridge and the upper end of the ar
senal grounds has been completed betwe
the turn in the channel near the upper end
Of the arsenal reservation and the Long
bridge. The remainder of this channel from
the upper end of the arsenal grounds 20 its
junction with the Virginia channel is still
to be widened to 400 feet and made twenty
feet deep, the material to be deposited on
section Ill. The widening and deepening OF
the Virginia channel below the Long bride
so as to facilitate the discharge of freshefs
and prevent overflow in the city is stu in
complete. The material dredged from this
channel Is also to be deposited on section
III. ~'i'ia
The reservoir outlet has been comnleted
except the railing. All material is being de-
posted on the fats and practically the on
tire area to be reclaimed has been raised
above the overflow at ordinary high tide
1t was estimated that 1900. GOO cubic yards
We're necessary to ill the fats to the re-
posted is l0.20s.5S4 cubic yards All the
large brush on the reclaimed area has been
cut and only the recent growth now needs
attention. Dredging operations I'm the river
channels will probably be resumed this
month.
