YACHTING.
TROv aRSY TO BE FOUGHT
OUT AGAIN

Boston, Dec. 26.-The cost OF the Hanley CEN
treboard craft which is TO be built for the
Americas Cup defence trial race will not exceed
100000. including the running expenses for the
year. c. c. Haniey her designer, is a great be-
lever in the best development of the former
American type of yacht, and at his City Point
yards yesterday he instanced many cases Up to
the present day in which the pure centreboard
yacht. with no outside ballast and with no
weighted board had defeated the more fashion
able keel racers. The Thordis. the winner of her
first eighteen straight races, was the forerunner
of the Meemer and the Ashumet. which have
had much success as centreboarders as also the
first Acushla, the Windora and the Little Peter.
The second Acushla, brought out by Hanley for
the Hannah brothers, of New York. was not
mentioned, as she proved to be failure in the
New-York waters
Hanley's idea is to carry the dimensions OF
centreboard craft which have been successful
in the small classes to the 90-foot class and
there build in the same proportions relying in
the big boat On the stability of broad beam in
the same way the skimming dishes of the
old time did. He thinks that yachts with wood
en- plankng and frames which will give TO the
motion of seaway. are more desirable than the
unyelding structure of steel and bronze which
has no give and take about her. These argu-
ments are at this day interesting by reason of
their antiquity, and are shared by large num-
Der of boat builders who carry on business
far from the chief yachting centres. but they
seem strange after the extraordinary speed
records which have been made by the Defender
the Columbia, Valkyrie II. the Syce. the
Jolly Roger, and many others of the heavily
balasted fin keel variety. Boston experts are
therefore looking forward to the perhaps final
proofs regarding a question which for many
years formed the greatest and most prolonged
and unexpected change that was made by Her
reshoff when he produced the Defender as 4
keel boat to meet Valkyrie III had the ef-
feet of leaving the old time question unsettled
among the big Cup yachts, and the Vigilant,
whose draught is now given in the Newly
Yacht Club book as II feet 4 inches, too
near the keel type to provide example for
the former representative racer of this
try. If Hanley succeeds in gaining first place
in the trial races he will please great number
of Americans who have been to a large extent
coerced by the judgments of Herreshoff and
other experts. and who would be glad to go back
to the kind of boat they believed in during the
earlier years.
Mr. Hanley said yesterday that his plans
were now complete. and that the yacht could
be begun at once. He also denied that Thomas
w. Lawson, the intending owner Of the Crown
inshield craft in any way connected with
the ceptreboard boat which he has designed
marine was put down yesterday at the
Hanley yards in large storage basin con-

does not favor any man in particular for the office
he seems TO be of the opinion that Robert T. Kings
bury. of New-Hampshire, the present first vice
president is the most likely candidate for the place
The membership has dropped steadily ever since
the cry raised against racing. and many peo-
pie are of the opinion that the veteran members
away from all connection with sport To-Day the
total membership is less than 26 00 The highwater
mark over 100000 Other candidates mentioned
in connection with the office OF president are A
B. Choate, of Minnesota H. S Earle, OF Michigan
and Milo NJ Belding, jr. of this State. Some Of the
State officials are disposed to depose Abbot Bas-
sett the secretary and TO have the National head
quarters moved from Boston to this city It is said
that neither President Sans Mr.. Bassett has
drawn more than one-half OF his stipulated salary

race at Madison Square Garden. might have been
avoided II proper precautions had been taken i'm

The taxpayers of Colerain township

heartily in favor Of an independent

large number of farmers who would
endorse same, and that a ticket with
men on it who would look after the
interests of the people and not increase
the taxation without giving the people
a reason for same, would have a large
following, and he thought would be
elected. This is the feeling all over
the county.
