English Comment on the sound Yacht Racing
Union.

In commenting on the Yacht Racing Union Of
Long Island Sound tho Field of April IT says:
"We have received copy of the rules of the
Yacht Racing Union of Long Island Sound. The
Union has enrolled twenty clubs, including the
Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht club. In a curl
GUS clause in tho rules it Is stated that the
powers of the union shall be advisory, and no
club shall be bound by the action OF tho union
until it has ratified such action This clause
was probably introduced with the idea OF induc-
ing clubs to Join in tho academic debates about
sailing rules; but 1t is about weak
stratagem as that of our own Yacht Racing
Association, which abandoned the stipulation
of the original draft for the constitution that
it should be obligatory on all members
that they would sail In no matches II Y. X. A.
rules were not strictly observed. However, as
the rules of the union have been in existence
since 1895. and appear to have been conformed
to by the cluDs which form the union. 1t may
run a long career. like the British Y. X. A. The
sailing rules In many ways resemble ours. even
in some cases to the letter, but the right Of way
rules are rather confused. One rule as to re-
sailed races Is peculiar, and IL as follows: No
new entries shall be received for a resaed race.
No yacht disqualified in a race shall
be entitled to start in q resailed race The
Yacht Racing Association recently adopted
better wOrdet.

sAirty Players Finish In the First Monthly
Handicap.


Thirty players returned cards in tho first
monthly handicap of the season at the st. An
drsw's Golf Club yesterday. This was consid-
cred to be an excellent showing. for the total was
only two less than last year. The play was on
tho old links, for tho Mount Hope course will
not be in use until July. The greens were in ex-
osllent order. but the fierce gale made golfing
psnewhat arduous occupation.
The Northwestern was behind the ball on the
first and ninth holes. but detriment on all tho
other green's. 1t was particularly difficult to
drive against the gale from tho high fourth tee
aud on the long eighth hole. and the scores on
the two spoiled a number Of tho cards. The
bogie is 5. 3, 4. 4. A, 4, 8, 5, 40. A compari
son with the cards shows that bogie was equalled
on the short second hole by several players, in
spite Of the high wind. Townsend. on his first
round, tied bogie on every hole except two. He
vas twice in the bunker on the long hole on the
second round, going in again after lifting.

Tho experiment. of three classes was tried for

IN each class was valued at $50. The tie in

BELFAST, April 27.-It has been decided to
build an Irish yacht to compete for the Americas s
Cup. The boat is to be constructed in Hilditch's 8
yards, Carrickfergus, upon the order of q syndi-
cate composed Of Gustav Wilhelm Wolf. NJ. p.
for East Belfast and q member Of the Belfast
shipbuilding firm Of Harland & Wolff; the Mar
quis of Dufferin and Ava, and the Marquis of

pices of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club Of which

matter. but that he had no doubt the club would
be pleased to receive a challenge from the Royal
Ulster Club. A yachtsman who has cruiscd
along the Irish coast said that he did not think
members OF the syndicate has done much
yachting outside Of steamers. He further said
that the Maruuis Of Dufferin and Ava, Commo-
dore OF the Royal Ulster Yacht Club, only owns

Mr.. Wolff, while being the junior member OF
one Of the largest shipbuilding firms in Ireland,
has never done much yachting, and the firm OF
s5-ton cutter Gladys and tho steam yacht Mi
randa, a small Acton boat.
Another curious fact about the proposed new
