PROSPECTS OF Much SPORT.

Evidently International yachting is not dead
Contests for the Americas Cup are not ended
British and American sportsmen have not lost
faith in each others manliness and honor. The
gloomy prognostications so freely INDUCED In
fortnight ago over the Sandy Hook iasco were
unnecessary The ending Of the ValkyrieDe-
fender contest was indeed lamentable from both
the British and the American point Of view
But il was not fatal nor even seriously injurious
TO sport Already it is thing Of the past, re-
membered only to stimulate yachtsmen on both
sides Of the Atlantic and indeed all over the
world, to keener and more generous rivalry.
At the present moment there Is every pros
pect that the Defender, or some other cup de-
fender, will be kept busy in the Immediate
future Two years elapsed between the email
lenges Of the second Valkyrie and the third; Out
now one year bids fair to see at least two chal-
lenges with possibility Of two more. Mr.
Roses prompt and gallant advance must, or
course first be met 1t is made in the true
snortsman's spirit. and doubtless has the sym
patty and ambitions Of the best water sports
men Of the mother country behind ii. Next IL
IS iptimated that Lord Dunrayen wants another
chance 10 try conclusions with his victorious
rival. with which end In view the Valkyrie Will
not be taken home but will spend the win
fer in America Mr.. Herbert Mor has also Sig
nifed his intention Of entering the lists, backed
by a numerous syndicate representing the sports
manship. not only of Great Britain, but of her
Australian colonies as well. Even the challenge
Of Sir George Newnes, the great anti-sporting
light Of England, may prove to be serious one;
and after that the cry may be shat still they
come"
We'll. let them come; the more the merrier.
They are redupcated evidences OF generous ana
friendly sentiments between the people OF two
mighty nations They are evidences, too, that
time has caused no decline OF that indomltaDle
Anglo Saxon spirit. common to both nations,
which will brook no rivalry, and which reckons
nothing gained while anything yet remains I'M
conquered or any obstacle yet not overcome
We have no fear that Yankee shipwrights ana
Yankee shippers will be beaten in the contest.
Yet II they should be once the loss would not De
lrreparable. 1t would mean merely greater
and more successful effort the next year, and a
victory in British instead of in American waters.
We should rather see the cup lost for one year
than the struggle for 1t ignobly and forever aban-
doned. But the struggle, 1t Is evident, Is not to
be abandoned, and we shall see II the cup Is to
be lost either If it is, it must be to far swifter
boat than ever yet has crossed the seas to seek It.
