thirty, miles, starting from Sandy Hook
I lightship to windward or leeward ac-
cording to the direction of the breeze
! The second race will be triangular, ten
miles to a leg, and will be sailed on
Thursday If no serious accident happens
to the yachts on Tuesday. And so the
contest will alternate in matter OF courses
every other day until one of the yachts
has won three races.
The New York Yacht Club officials have
been striving for months to comnlete
their arrangements with a view to
satisfactory and pleasant termination of
the match Everything possible under the
circumstances has been done to this end,
and if the public lend them a hand sue
cess must attend their efforts.
According to the agreement under which
the races are to be sailed the winner of
| three out of the series of five is to keep
or take the cup, as the case may be. The
dates fixed are October 3. October and
October Z, and if it is necessary to sail
five races the following Tuesday and
! Thursday are the extra days named for
the contest. The conditions which gov
ern the races are that the first race shall
second race, an equilatorical triangle;
third race, similar to the first; fourth
similar TO the second; fifth race, similar
to the first. The courses shall be as near
ly a possible thirty nautical miles.
Because of the lay of the land-the
position of the coasts of Long Island and
race is likely to be the Sandy Hook
| lightship-the red hulk that is anchored
about seven miles to the eastward of the
/ point of the hook. But at times the wind
comes so that the Scotland lightship. a
| yellow hulk four and an eighth miles
| nearer Sandy Hook. is more convenient
and it might easily happen that it would
be used, especially in the triangular
! course.
The starting line is to be formed by the
| flagship of the New York Yacht Club,
anchoring near one of the lightships men
toned. The usual distance is two hun
dred yards but there is no specified dis
| tance in the agreement A preparatory
gun on the flagship will be fired fifteen
minutes before the crossing time Ten
minutes later a warning gun will be fired
and in five minutes the third gun. which
is the starting signal. The racers have
two minutes left in which they may cross.
and a fourth gun will announce the end
of that limit. Each will be timed on the
second 1t crosses. Each race is to be
started at II o'clock if possible but dead
| calm or a fog or a heavy gale-a real
stOrm-would necessarily postpone the
race, and it is agreed that no race shall
! be started after 1880 o'clock.
Further than that To avoid drifting
match, wherein a boat may win rather by
! luck than by the qualities of yachts or
crews. ii is agreed that if one of the

MORNING GAME.
San Francisco g. Santa Cruz 5,

At Oakland yesterday morning the
crowd was treated to a Fourth of July
fireworks display, without the fog. Both
Iburg and Andrews were hit hard and
often. and all runs were in a great meas
ure the result of whacking stick work.
In the first inning Brockhoff was given
a base on balls, and Hildebrand followed
to the first bag on an error by Williams
BrOckhoff going to third. A hit by Krug
scored Brockhoff, and later on hit by
Courtney gave Hildebrand and Krug a
chance to add two runs to the list In
the third inning Krug and Sullivan scored
for the locals.
The fourth inning was the LobsterS
own. Williams made first on an error,
and hits by DevereauX and brennan
brought him over the rubber. A safe hit
by Clark filled all bags. Streib found the
ball for hit and DevereauX scored, but
Clark perished at second. brennan was
the last of the Lobsters to be sent home
this inning. A tumble by Reilly of Dali
rymple's grounder was the moving cause
The very next inning San Francisco
added three more runs to the score. Hill
debrand opened with home run, Sullivan
was hit by the pitcher and Courtney and
Reilly swatted the ball for a couple of
two-baggers, Sullivan and Courtney scor-
ing In the eighth San Francisco attached
the ninth run to its list.
This same inning brought brace of
runs to Santa Cruz. A single by brennan
followed by three-bagger from Clark 5
bat was responsible for the first run
Clark scored on Dalrymple's out
