Il stronger fivorite than ever. and yet
il can he truthfully asserted that from
what We already know there never
was less reason why this should be.
if. as we are reliably Informed. there
is no true distinction between the two
boats, either in their dimensions or
sail area. the superiority of one over
the other must depend upon Il COM
bnation of small details in constrlc-
tion and rigging. This being the ease,
supreme confidence in the American
boat is purely a matter of unrcaSon-
ing faith. Heretofore. the Horre-
Shnifs have held the lead through
their superior knowledge and eXper-
fence expressed in more pr less dis
tinct variations upon preceding types
and differing equally from those dis
played in the British boat Watson
and IIerreshorf have now hit upon
precisely the same idea. and it Is yet
to be proved tha, the latter is as SUI
pcrior in matters of detail as he has
been in originality. There is. there
fore lass reason for confidence in an
American victory than there was at
a corresponding time prior to the last
