THE VTGILANT orr.

The Vigant carries across the ocean the
homes Of all Americans that she will continue
her career of triumph and win every race for
which she may be entered. The arrival In Eng
llsh waters OF her famous antagonist the Val
kyrie Is reported on the day Of her departure.
The English cutter has had Il protracted voy-
age. with head winds nearly all the way across
the Atlantic The Vigant has a reasonable
prospect OF making better time, since the
weather can hardly fail to be more favorable
in June than the Vakyrie met with In May.
Transatlantic speed trials prove nothing unless
n simultaneous start Is made. The Vigilant =
real battle for the flag which she carries Will
come when she enters the lists against the Val
kyrie and the best English yachts A speedy
arrival at her destination will be advantageous,
because It will allow ample time for rchtting
her for contests In English waters On that
account every good American will wish her a
quick as well as n safe voyage.
English contestants for the Americas Cup
have complained that their yachts were built
for different conditions Of wind and sea than
those ordinarily prevailing off Sandy Hook.
They have asserted that their boats were more
heavily SPARED and carried less canvas than
the American yachts ptted against thcnf and
that the results OF the contests would be re-
yersed II the courses were changed TO English
