Say yaIl<yrie III. COnnOt Defeat
Defender Except in IL Heavy
Sea-.
NEW YORK, July 24-Mr. Willard,
of the Vigilant, has sent his protest to
the regatta committee of the New
York Yacht club regarding the start
in yesterdays race. The protest is
based upon the maneuvers during
which the Defender luffed sharply
across the Vigilant's bow, compelling
the latter to so about and lose head
way just before the start. 1t was ex-
actly similar to that which occurred
in July, 1894, between Satanita and
Valkyrie IL, in which the latter yacht
was sunk.
Yachtsmen are in jubilant mood to-
day, and the eXuberance of many of
the more enthusiastic carries them to
the point of saying and actually be-
lieVing there is absolutely no use in
Lord Dunraven bringing his Valkyrie
III. across the ocean in the hope of
getting the Americas cup. The cup
is safe, according to their deductions,
from yesterdays magnificent show
ing of the Defender, against the best
trial horse that could possibly be
secured. That the Defender is faster
than the Nigilant in anything but a
heavy blow and a big sea must be
conceded.
Mr. Iselin said: "In the two races
we have had with the Vigilant the
Defender has proved its superiority
in every point of sailing, with pos
sibly one exception. In sailing with
spinnakers set before a light wind the
Vigilant seems to be able to hold it's
own, and possibly to be a trifie the
faster. 1t ought to be bit faster in
that respect, however, for it's spread
of canvas is much greater than that
of the Defender, and in that kind of
sailing it is the spread of canvas that
tells"
1t is q, matter of considerable doubt
whether the trial races that were
scheduled for the middle of August
will come off. OF course it will be
necessary for the Defender to continue
the tuning-up process that has been
so auspiciously begun, and it will prob
ably be speeded repeatedly over a
regular course after it has received
the new boom and larger mainsail
which, it is said, will add perceptibly
to its already unsurpassed speed In
case it is decided to hold the trial
races to formally select a defender
for the Americas cup, which races
have been set for Aug. 10 and u, it
is probable an effort will be made to
have the Jubilee and Colonia also
enter.

WILL TEST THE WATER.
City Officials and DR.. Hewitt Visit
Our Source of Supply.

Secretary Caulfeld, of the water
board, City Engineer Rundlett and
DR.. Hewitt, the secretary of the state
board of health, made a tour of in
spection yesterday of the lakes which
supply the city with water. Samples
of water were taken from the lakes
for analysis by DR.. Hewitt.
The water of late has had an un-
pleasant taste. but those who have
examined it say that this is due to
moss and weeds that have collected
in some of the mains. President Be
ment, of the water board, said yester-
day that the excavations made prior
to the building of the substructure of
the Como avenue bridge caused the
trouble. The 20-inch main there is a
branch of the Dale street main. The
excavation rendered it necessary to
cut the Como avenue main and plug
it on both sides, and bring the water
through smaller mains by other routes.
The water in the plugged main be-
came stagnant and foul and weeds and
moss collected and grew there, and
as the main could not be flushed, the
whole supply was affected. The con-
d1tion of the water has improved, how
ever, during the past few days, as the
Como avenue main has been joined
again and the water department is
flushing all the mains.
