In the Senate on Saturday the conn

expected, but Mr. German, claiming that

the Cause.
New York, Aug. 29.-The Tribune
saws: Men whose opinions and yacht
ing knowledge are respected and es-
teemed declared yesterday that the
Shamrock was twisted in the midship
section and that towing had caused
strain which has worked her plates" "
One yachting expert who has built
Yachts and has docked hundreds OF
ships told Tribune reporter last even
ing that in the afternoon he was eur
prised, while looking at the English
cup challenger, to see that she was
badly twisted in the midship section.
"The warp is quite apparent" he
continued, 'to any one who knows
anything about the lines of yacht
fancied that detected the twist yes
terday afternoon. am sure Of it to-
day, as by tightening, the Shamrock is
much higher ont of the water today
than she was yesterday. Naturally
towing caused the straining and made
the plates draw and on that account |
believe the theory of leak is quite
probable. If the yacht came over on
the port tack the tendency would be to
strain the hull to starboard, and such
strain would undoubtedly cause the
plates on the port quarter to spring"
Others believe that the leak or strain
probably was the result of the acci-
dent which happened 10 tho Shamrock
when she ran aground in her trial
trips with the Prince of Wales Britain:
