UNFAIR JOCKEYING.

The race yesterday of Ryde proves
what all Americans would have prefer
red to see disproved. that our English
cousins prefer the defeat of the vigilani
under circumstances not creditable tc
themselves, rather than fair trial OF
the merits of the two class OF boats en-
gagged In the race.
Very strong hints have come from
England from time to time that unfair
means were being used to bring the
Yankee sloop in second or last. Several
races have been sailed which lent TO
these charges color, but none which
gave to them such proof positive as was
afforded by yesterday'srace.
The races have been sailed in the
shadows, where rccks and sand bars
have prevented the full use Of the
Vigilant's centreboard, thus placing
her at a disadvantage, and from the very
start the tactics of the Britannia's skip
per has beon to force her into such a
position, that she might be forced to
make lee way owing to the fact that
her board was up instead of down.
Yesterdays race plainly showed that
the intention was to have the Britannia
Jockey" the vigilant and allow the
Satanita to obtain such lead as to pre-
vent any possibility of the vigilant's
overtakipg her.
The Britannia forced the vigilant into
q lufiing match, eventually getting her
into such shoal water that she made
leeway rapidly, and before she could get
away from her old rival, the Satanita
had secured sufficient lead to win hand
somelv.
All through the race the Britannia
hung to the vlgilant only to harass her
and so give free way to the Satanita.
1t was not a fair test of the yachts.
II was not fair race. It savored too
much Of cheap race track tactics when
several poor horses will get the best
horse into pocket aud keep 1t there
while poorer horse is given free track
room and allowed to come in winner.
The idea Of the present races IL, as is
understood in America, not to see which
boat can win by hook or crook, but to
make an honest test Of the two types of
yachts. This has not been permitted by
our fair-play loving English cousins.
From the start ID has beon 'down the
American by fair means or foul" I'm
der such circumstances the odds are too
many against the vigilant to hope for
successful issue.
In honest racing she can defeat either
the Satanita or the Britannia handsomely
but when she has to compete with such
handicaps as arc unfairly laid against
her 1t is folly 20 expect her to win.
The race for the Wolverton cup will
give her an opportunity TO meet the
Britannia under conditions more nearly
equal. and IL she is not hampered by in
reference, or in other words IL it is a
fair fight and no favor, she will. THE
News believes. defeat the Britannia in a
manner that will leave behind no doubt
as to which Is the better boat.
All that America asks Is fair play.
When she gets it. If she is beaten, the
sponge will be promptly thrown up.
Upth she does get IL the Bristol boat
will still remain in American minds the
true queen of the waters.
