DELAY IN MEASURING DEFENDER.
Mr.. Iselin. while ashore in the morning, de-
clared himself perfectly satisfied with the work
ing Of his new boat the Defender. but would not
explain why he is delaying the measuring OF the
vessel until the last moment, although II can
now make no difference to Lord Dunraven what
the Defenders length Of waer-line or sail may
be- ,
He said that the Defenders steering gear was
perfectly satisfactory and was doing just what
it was intended 10 do. 1t would not. ne SAID De
altered in any way before the cup races MI.
Leeds thought that all the steering apparatus
needed when it became heated on Tuesday was
a little more oil He also said that the Defende,
was further ahead Of the Nigilant when she had

supposed lie declared that the Defender was
fully four minutes ahead Of the Vigliant az that
point. According TO Mr.. Leeds, the NlsHah,
mistake in setting her spnnaker at the start In
the race on Monday gave the Defender a chahcs
to reach out ahead Of her along the Long lsiahu
shore. II that course could have been kept
good deal more Of a gain would have been re-
corded as the Defender can reach wonderiuhy

Sound so there was nothing to do but set the
spinnaker and keep away for the mark IN

what the Defender was doing.
THE trouble with people who think the De
fender is not doing well is that they do not ap-
