THIS WEEKS RACES.

The two, or possibly three, races
which will be held this week will
prove more conc1usively than any
meeting the yachts have yet had the
true difference between the boats.
When they come together on Tues
day next they will be more highly
keyed and faster than at any time
during their careers. The circular
of the Americas cup committee,
which orders the races, reads as fol-
lows:
1.-The American cup committee an
nounce5 that the trial races will be
sailed off Sandy Hook on Aug % and
Y, and in case a third race is
deemed advisable, on Aug. u. The
committee will require the measure
ment of competing yachts taken with
as many persons On board as will be
carried in the trial races. The regatta
committee issue the necessary sailing
directions. The cup committee re-
serves the right to recall the yachts
at any time, TO re-start any race. or to
alter the length and direc ton of the
course, as they may deem advisable
Entries and measurements must be
sent to the Americas cup committee
at the New York Yacht club by Aug.
49,
The new rule which the committee
has adopted in the matter of recalling
the yachts at any time they see fit, is
universally considered to be an excel
lent plan

enough to compel the taking in of
club topsails. The wind was well
over the starboard quarter all the
way. Defender was more than two
minutes ahead, when her steering
gear went wrong and she had to give
up not far from New London. On
the following day, when the fleet had
free run from New London to
Newport, Defender came in away
ahead. Over the. Block Island course,
off Newport, Defender had a COM
Portable lead; seven miles from
home her gaff broke, and Vigilant
won the coveted GoeIet cup for sin
gle stickers. The two races which
followed were really the decisive
contests of the cruise, and it was not
until after the first of these, the run
from Newport TO Vineyard Haven,
that Mr.. Willard, of the VigiIant,
would admit that Defender was a
better boat than his. On the voy-
age out Defender won by min
utes, "a seconds, and on the return.
over the same course, showed her
superiority by coming in minutes
and 8 seconds ahead. On the last
day of all, when the racers met over
a short triangular course of seven
miles to the leg, the fin-keeI boat
did better than ever. She beat the
center-board by 5 minutes and IS
seconds on the dead beat to wind
ward in the first seven miles, and
put L minute and % seconds more
between them on the reach to second
mark. On the run home the VigiIant
set her spinnaker when she had COW
cred half the seven miles, and it drew
her very well until she nearly over
hauled Defender, which did not hang
out her spinnaker at all only thirty
seconds. The figures in this last
race are especially interesting in
showing what Defender can do in
beating and running, the two forms
of sailing in which Valkyrie III is
said TO be at her best.

TO receive hot shot FROM the q. A. X.
Since the old soldier declared several
days ago that the members of the
Grand Army OF the Republic "ars IL
lot OF pension bummers, scarcely a
day has passed but that some Grand
Army post has opened fire upon him.
The politicians who have worked the
soldier vote for years for all that 1t is
worth, have also joined the hue and
cry, but thus far COMMISSIONER War.
Ing remains undsturbed at his post,
and is unmoved by the assaults made
upon him. but is evidently able Ia take
care OF himself.
He expected, of course, to be de
nonnced when he made the declaration,
and subsequent events furnish abun
dant proof that he has not heen dis.
appointed. However, as before enid.
he ia able to take care OF himself, as
the following from his retort to the
Charles L. Lawton Post, OF Newport,
r. l., indicates:
Where differ from yon is in the
statement that these men, after thirty
years OF peace, have shown to the ma.
ton that the Grand Army OF the Repub.

then by deeds of patriotism. | know

HE NIRGINlAS believes, es it has
SAID before, that there are very many
respectable and true men i'll the Grand

hately they are not in the majority.
1t Is the part that some members of the

aud yet it has been manifestly uuinst
TO the people that SO much OF their

for which no return has or ever will be
