Mr. GOrLD TALKS OF HIS CRUISE.
HE HAS NO INTENTION OF ORGANIZING A
NORTH POLE EXPEDITION.

comrodore George J. Gould Of the Atlantic
Yacht Club recently made a cruise N DIS s'e"i"
Yacht the ATLANTA, TO the eastward anu ho''"
v,.d He was gone nearly the entire month OF
Autust and Immediately after his return went up
70 his lodge in the Catskils. He has Just returhc"
~ the city and was seen yesterday afternoon by
reporter for The Tribune. and was asked 10 say
something about his cruise and future Yach'Me
plans. H.,
well" said Mr. Gould. with smile there really
Is not much 10 say about my cruise. IT was haue
entirely for pleasure and while did not get as Tar
eastward or as far northward had at first in
tended Il was very delightful. had planned 10 go
10 Halifax and TO Labrador. but the unsettled con-
dtion of business made II necessary for me 10 stay
nearer home. So l did not get further than Bar
Harbor l returned" said he. with a slight twinkle
in his eye without the North Pole
Then there is truth In the story that You con-
TEMPLATE organizing an expedition to reach that
point?"
None whatever" was the reply. II have other
matters to claim my time and attention. AS 10 my
cruise can only say that | am very fond OF the
Maine coast: and. by-the-way, made trip which
l think comparatively few yachtsmen take 1t was
I'D the Penobscot River to Bath. 1t is not very long
only about thirty miles-but the scenery is magnh-
cent The country is mounta nous the river Is mar
row and deep and the sides Of the mountains. which
are rocky and preciptous. rise right out OF the
water. 1t IS not trip that can well be made In
sailing vessel except under tow. Dut IL Is wei worm
the making.
"By-the-way." remarked the reporter. at Is stated
on excellent authority that Mr. Herreshof has ex-
pressed the opinion that the Vigilant II deepened
and altered into a schooner could be made TO beat
the Colonia ten minutes a fortymile course
II Is recognized that the Colona Is the fastest
schooner afoat. Have you had any communication
with or intimaton from Mr.. Herreshof on this sub
ject?
NO" said Mr.. Gould, II have not and this Ia the
first time that have heard he had expressed such
an opinion. Still. think myself that the Vigilant
transformed into a schooner. could be made 10 beat
the Coonia. for soop she was all around the
better boat. And she could be transformed az COM
paratively small cost. for she has already spare
mast and number of spare sails that with slight
alterations could be made 10 serve her under
schooner rig For example. she has one sail that
could easily be converted into balloon maintop-
mast staysail"
Have YOU decided TO alter her into a schooner"
NO. have not"
Have you formed yachting plans for next
SON.
Not as yet. You know II is my habit 70 act very
quickly, and therefore | seldom make my plans
any considerable length of time In advance So
that whatever may DO next season will not be de-
ternined in all probability. until the approach
OF the time.
