NEW YORK, Aug. 23-There is so little

and the defender Of the cup, whoever she

"Gentlemon, / viii bet 800 that De-
fender beats this boat I've looked 'em
both over and think know a thing or
two about the business. If anybody knows
more nor / do he can have my money"
When the gentlom0n-he was evidently
a man of about 60 years-had said that
another well dressed Individual who was
plainly an EnRlishman, pressed his way
through tho crowd and said
IF you'n make IL 500 to S75 I'll take

I'm bet you 800 against $780," said
the Britisher
"That's a go, said tho bronzed Yam
koe and the bet was made.
"Id like TO make some more bets like
that, " said the Nantucket man as he put
big roll back in his pocket.
"If the odds run that way" the Eng
