No Wind for the Ncw York Yacht Racing As.
ISOLATION.

Notwithstanding an unusually large entry
list, the annual regatta OF the New York Yacht
Racing Association, which was sailed yestcr-
day, was a flasco OF the most pronounced kind.
The little wind that was in evidence in Graves
end Bay was from the west-southwest, and was
the liGhtest and most fuky that the Corinthian
sailors in that vicinity have experienced for
fully two months.
The surface OF tho bay was like oil, and the
competing yachts drIfted the greater part Of the
journey under the influence of the tide rather
than through the smiles OF 4Eolus.
The Regatta Committee and Judges were en-
tertAined on board the sloop Seabolt by Capt.
| Willis. and the finish times OF the contestants
were taken from that craft.
Tho preparatory signal was sounded at 1915
o'clock. thu committee having waited until that
hour for the breeze. The small yachts were the
only ones to finish the course within the time
limit of six hours. The boats crossed tho line in
divisions at ten minutes intervals in the follow.
Ing order:
