London, Nov. 1.-THE controversy in the
United States regarding the proposed
change OF the Americas cup course from
or Sandy Hook to of Newport can be
settled in only one way, according to Sir
thomas Upton idea, that IS by sticking
TO the old order of things. lie said to a
reporter of the AssOCia ted Press:
4 prefer Sandy Hook. I do not think
that there is a better course in the world
/ nave never made any objection to it, in
tact have always spoken of it in the
highest terms
No doubt the races last year were pro-
ionged owing to there not being sufficient
wind to finish within the time limit But
II IS my opinion that with sufficient wind
there could rot be better or fairer
course, and personally / feel that there
would be more glory in lighting the bat
tie on the old historical course whel : we
have so often been defeated. ANYHOW,
there has always been sufficient breeze
for the American boats to win at Sandy
Hook, and had the Shamrock been a
speedieT boat, the same wind would have
brought her in nrst. Were / TO go over a
new course | could not have worse luck,
50 far as results go. than I had az Sandy
Hook, and the Americans could not have
better luck than they got there These
are my personal views The members of

the best judges. and I am quite willing to
abide by their decision

bring them together to get the ideas Of
men who should be we'll informed on
such subjects and it is thought that a
bill can be made that VIII remedy all
the evils now existing
The scheme is TO make q general re-
vision of the game laws Of the state as
they now stand and it is thought that
a congress of the best known sp0Ftsmen
would have sufficient influence TO Sc
cure the passage Of a good measure.
The man who shoots merely for pleas
ure, the guide who desires that the
sport may be protected in order that
the business out of which he makes his
living shall last, the ranChman in the
western part Of the state who wants
sufficient game to keep him in meat
during the winter months and the hu
manitarian who objects to the whole
sale slaughter of game by the pot hunt
ers will all be represented in this con-
gress, and by getting the ideas of all
these people it is thought that an in
telligent law protecting the game of
the state can be made which will be
passed and enforced.
Several parties are interested in a
measure to petition the national con-
gress to set aside a reserve to be used
as d national park the same as the one
in Wyoming. The exact date Of this
meeting has not been set as yet, but it
is believed that it will be near the mid
die of December.
