commanded by Commodore John c. Ste
vens Of the New York Yacht Club, ran
across the Atlantic to England. and SAIL
ing in the only race allowed her on The
programme Of the Royal Yacht Squadron

the United Kingdom, captured the 100
guinea trophy, since known as '+the Amer

York, where il has since remained, not
however. for want Of effort on the part of
the Britishers 10 regain it. Ten times.
counting the present contest, have they
come over in their best built and fastest
flyers in full confidence of carrying back
the prize, and nine times have they gone
back empty handed.
The now famous cup was won by the
America in the regatta of the ROYAL
Yacht Squadron August %, 1851, over a
course which lay around the Isle Of Wight
and over whicn she beat her nearest on
ponent by over six miles II remained the
property Of the surviving owners of the
yacht, John c. Stevens, George L. SchlIy-
Ter and Hamilton Wilkes, until 1857, when
it was presented to the New York Yacht
Club as perpetual International chaI-
lenge cup. The New York club accented
the custodianship and responsibility of de-
Tending the cup. and sent copies of the
conditions under which they held IL TO
every yacht club of any consequence in
the world. Though the English clubs
were still quite sore over the victory of
the America and the loss of the cup, they

There were many passengers on the

persons saw the instruments during the
six hours they were working and listened
to the predictions OF scientific men relat-
ing to their future.
