Launching ofthe Shamrock
at MillWall.
HER ESTIMATED LENGTH
Her Lower Part is Covered With a
Manganese BrOnZe--NO Radical
Departure With Regard to Her
Shape Was Made.

London, June 27.--With the exception
of the Times, the papers do not indulge
in speculation as to the building of the
Shamrock. The Standard, which esti-
mates her length at 12S feet and her
draught with all spars and fittings on
board at 1917 feet, says: I'm the water
she looked light. Her bow was high,
showing she will not have to carry much
weight to bring it down to the water
line" The Daily Mail estimates her
length at 130 feet inches, her water line
at SO feet inches, her beam about "a
feet, her draught at 19 feet inches and
her sail area at $4,000 square feet. The
Times says:
''rhe lower part is evidently manganese
bronze, which lends itself SO admira bly,
to rolling into plates. where cost is no OBJ
ject. So far as it can be judged during
the very short time the vessels under
water body was visible, there is no radi-
cal departure with regard to shape.
There are the long counter, raking stern
post and overhang forward that charac-
terizes the modern racing yacht The
profile OF the bow slopes easily and gradu-
ally aft, until, perhaps, third of the
length is reached. and then the outline
takes sudden dip down, almost in a YER
tical Line. OF the bod plan, as compared
with that of the defender, it may be
Judged that the Shamrock has the fatter
floor and the squarer bilge and will, there
fore. possess more stability of form than
her rival"
The Daily Telegraph says: "Obviously
ther is very little wood about her,
and the bolts riveting the plates are
aluminium, but what metal is used must
remain mystery. 1t seems to be the
general impression that she is larger
than might have been expected

The Paris Disaster.

Chicago, June PA special cable to
the Tribune from London says: The Paris
disaster turns out to be simple matter
On leaving Cherbourg, Captain Watkins
entered the departure in the log: "Six
thirty-fve p. m..' using a pencil The
next entry was: Passing Caskets, 1856"
The course steered was almost west in
order to make Lizard light. So as to go
through the passage between Cornwall
and the islands, the usual practice is if
the Lizard light is not made at certain
tlme to change the course to the south
and go clear of the islands. On this oc-
cason this was impossible, as, owing to
the misty night, they could not see the
Eddyst tone light. The captain consulted
the log when about opposite Eddystone.
He mlstook the entry and read the time
of leaving Cherbourg as 7:35, the time of
passing Caskets, instead of 6:35, the real
time of leaving Cherbourg. Consequent
ly the captain judged himself about II
miles farther from the Cornwall coast
than he really was and delayed chang
ing the course by one hour, just suffi-
cient time to run the Paris right on the
coast.
