-Cpp Cs.-ittss win Meet Aeai. To-day
There was little new in the America, Cup
controversy yesterday beyond som. talk Of
possible compromise. The Cup COMMITTEES did
not meet, and no answer to the commfttsss ca
blesram was received from Eord Dunrsven up
10 . late hour last night II IL understood that
after the Cup Committee had finished their sss-
sion on Monday, II. Maitland Kersey and A.
Csss Garfield, Secretary Of the Cup Committee,
had q conference, at which the explanatory let
ter that viii go 10 Dunraven by the steamer
New York to-day was read TO the Earls Ameri-
can representatives Mr.. Kerssy therefore fully
understands the Cup Committes's position, and
the cable from tho commits 10 Dunraven was
followed by one from Mr.. Kersey suggesting
means Of a compromise.
In his despatch Mr.. Kersey stated that, in his
opinion. the only chance for . match was for
the Royal Yacht Squadron TO agree TO tack on
TO the receipt for the cup, as demanded by the
New York Yacht Club, . declaration to the
eject that the cup, II won by the valkyrie.
could be challenged for BY any foreign club
upon the same conditions that prevailed in said
race. This view of the matter was shown TO .
prominet oficial Of the New York Yacht Club,
who, after reading II. said. ~ don't think It
would answer. The Royal Yacht Squadron
proposes to ignore the New Deed of Gift, and we
won't have IT. that Is the whole situation in a
nutshell. II all rests now with the Royal Yacht
Squadron whether we have race or not"
Mr.. Kersey later in the dav. in speaking Of the
New Deed of Gift, saidt "The mutual agree
ment clause actually superseded the Deed OF
Gift In 1899, and the New York Yacht Club did
not tumble to this until recently. Now they
wish 10 discard the mutual agreement clause
and 20 back to the terms Of the New Deed Of
Gift"
The form of receipt which the Royal Yacht !
Squadron objects to signing. in case the valky- |
rie should happen to win the cup, follows:
