Meeting or the New York Yacht Club-Action
on the Dcnth Of Cant. Goclet.

Tho general meeting Of the New York Yacht
Club. which was held at the Madison avenue
headquarters last night, was called to order by
Vice-Commodor Lewis Cass Lcdyard, in the
absence OF Commodore J. p. Morgan. Tho
business was transacted quickly. and in less
than one hour and a half the meeting was ad-
journcd. The principal topic was the death Of
Capt. Ogden GOelet. and the presiding officer
introduced the subject in the following words:
"GENTLEMES: ! think we must all have been
deeply impressed tonight by the mention Of the
name of Capt. Goelet In the list OF members who
have died. There Is probably no name on the
list OF the New York Yacht Club that would be
SO generally and universally missed as that Of
Capt. Goelet. The keen interest which he
has always taken in the sport of yachting
an interest which, in spite Of his feeble health
and great suffering, has known no ahat mcnt,
and which has found its elimination in what
has become the leading yachting event in the
country the annual races for the Goelet cups,
has endcared him to US all.
"Ithink that it will be proper that the club
should appoint a committee to draft suitable
resolutions in reference to the death OF Capt.
G~oelet."
S. Nicholson Kane. Lloyd Phoenix. and George
L. R!yes were appointed as the committGe. ~.

Hoshi Is a lawyer by profession. and abandoned

Is rather anticipated. But that he is to be re-
moved Is not credited at the legation.
