Ounravcn Strips His Boat of Everything
Not Indispensable.
The Defender and the Valkyrie were dry
locked in the Erie basin for another scrub,
and were tioated again before dark. The
Defender also placed one of her spare top
masts in position to take the place of the
one that was sprung in the collision. A
surprise came TO the people who wera wait
ing about the docks when John Hyslop,
the official measurer Of the New Yorf,
Yacht club, entered the Boston dock yard.
in which the dry docks are situated. with
his black handbag in tow. and proceeded
to measure the two boats again.
1t was said that Eord Dunravcn had
asked for one more measurement in the
hope that by dint of Extraordinarily Sc.

could yet be reduced SO that the - seconds
time allowance she gives the Defender
could be wiped cut. 1t was certain that
the English yacht was bare of everything

sole ourselves by admitting that Her
