SIR THOMAS Upton FAILS TO LIFT AMERICAS Cup LOSING EVERY RACE

man of the New York Yacht Club regatta
committee, replied:
Sir, we have never had truer sports
man to deal with"
Many of Sir Thomas guests on board
the Erin crowded around to express their
sympathy at his defeat and assured him
OF the high place he had won in the hearts
of all Americans.
more than cup said one of them.
There were tears in the Irish Baronet's
eyes when he thanked them for their
kind words. Said he:
The words you have spoken touch me
more than my defeat to-day. 1 tried to
win the cup and l. have done nv best
But better than all that, have the good
wishes of this country"
When aSsed about his plans for the
future Sir Thomas said:
1t IS too early to talk about any plans.
About the Shamrock [ cannot decide yet
what | shall do and as to challenging
again, 1t is too soon to think about it,
Z. d. Morgan, the manager of the Co.
lumbia, said:
Il am very happy that we won and glad
that the strain is over. We certainly had
to make a splendid fight for it. We had a
splendid captain and a splendid crew"
The Columbia's mainsail was unbent be-
fore she came to anchor and soon after
dark she. was towed to City Island. Be
fore leaving Captain Barr said:
I'VE did the best we could and thew did
the best they could and we came out first.
That's all"
At the New York Yacht Club tonight
Chairman Kane and Secretary Oddie were
closely questioned by members regarding
the sensational finish. Kane said he had
difficulty in timing the yachts, but was
fortunate in sighting them at the proper
range. The range was from a small white
flag on the committee boat and the main
mast of the Sandy Hook lightship.
Chester Griswold of the regatta club, held
the watch that timed the yachts.

SUPREME DISAPPOINTMENT.
London Paper Suggests That Yachts
Exchange Crews and Then Race.

LONDON, Oct 5.-There is feeling of stl-
preme disappointment in London over the fail
ure Of the Shamrock II to win even a single
lace Those who denounced Sir Thomas Lip
toms ambition asserting that he was using
his yacht to advance his business interests
now realize that his sportsmanlike efforts de-
served a better result. The question is raised
here whether the defeat of the challenger was
due to the superiority of American seaman
ship or the better constructive ability of the
Americans. With a view of settling the aues-
tion the Daily Express has cabled Commodore
Morgan and Sir Thomas Upton, suggesting
that they should arrange a race with the CO.
Iumbia's crew board the Shamrock IL and
the crew of the challenger on board the de-
fender.
ting that the challenger was fairly and
squarely beaten by better boat
Most of the papers gratifed that Sir
Thomas LiDton's public-spirited action should
have stimulated international good will be-
sides resulting in the finest and closest race
ever witnessed in the history of yachting
The Daily Chronicle says far more i'm
portance than the result of the contest itself
is the friendly spirit in which it was waged
from the start to the finish sir Thomas
Upton says ne would rather win American
good will than the cup, and we cannot doubt
that though he had missed the latter ne has
gone far to attest the former and infinitely
more important purpose
''Sir Thomas Lipton,'' observes the Standard
has shown himself a true sportsman He de-
serves the gratitude of the English people for
the splendid front he has made.

the two racers were almost on even terms.
1t was a pretty sight and one seldom
witnessed when they crossed rail to rail,

the golden boats mast.
Pandemonium Follows.
The usual pandemonium that attends
the final Yankee victory in a cup contest
followed. Whistles. sirens, bells, bands
and cheers united in q grand chorus OF
jubilation, and J. P. Morgan's yacht Cor
sair added to the terrific din by firing a
national salute of twenty-one guns.
After the Columbia had hauled down her
sails and set her victory flag the eXcur-
sion boats crowded alongside to cheer the
Yankee sailors and the winning skipper.
Nor did, they forget Sir Thomas Upton or
his gallant craft. In turn the crowded
steamers ran alongside the Shamrock and
Erin and the vanquished received almost
as much honor as the victor. And thus,
with felicitations all around, the twelve
series of races for the old cup which the
schooner America brought over fifty years
ago ended with the best of feeling:
Taking his defeat gamely, Sir Thomas
Upton yet made no attempt to conceal
the keenest disappointment when he
talked about the races tonight on the
Erin.
Sir Thomas Disappointment.
'I am very much disappointed he said.
"I thought that within fifteen minutes
of the finish that we had won. was as
sure as my life we had won. When
looked arOUnQ the SITUATION UdQ cQdUS6Q
and we had lost. 1t was hard blow to
be so near winning and then to lose.
should like to have got one race, just by
way of consolation. 1t is a very hard
thing to be beaten by a breath-by few
beats of the pulse. 1t has been a severe
strain on me- have worked SO hard for
many months now and 1 am glad 1T is
over. To have won would have been d
Joy greater than to-day's disappointment.
The Columbia's win to-day was fair and
square and honorable. There is nothing
to protest If | wanted to protest. In fact,
| have feeling in my heart that If there
had been any error in judgment at all it
would have been in my favor. If there
had been any possibility of choice in the
matter believe the yacht club would
have given me the race. Sometimes a
man has the better boat, but even having
it must have wee bit of luck to win. |
am very grieved indeed, very grieved.
and he added. II should have liked to
have won one race
Hardly had the Erins anchors touched
bottom when a launch from the Yacht
Corsair came alongside bearing the
regatta committee of the New York Yacht
Club Sir Thomas met them at the head
of the gangway and as he shook hands
with them individually he said:
Gentlemen, it was a 1air beat I want
to say again that you have treated me
with the utmost fairness and courtesy
You have met every wish of mine, and
from my heart / thank you

TEN INNING GAME
ENDS IN A TIE
Los Angeles and Oak
land in Sensational
Contest.
Householder's Home Run and
Mohler's Great Throw
the Features.

Oakland and Los Angeles played an
other ter-inning game yesterday at Rec
reation Park 1t was called on account of
darkness with the score to 8. The game
was a contest from first to last and was
replete with clever plays.
In the eighth Mohler, on second. threw
Dougherty out at third. He stopped what
looked like a safe hit by Householder and
slammed it down to third. Dougherty
apparently expected to score on the hit
but Captain Reilly. who was on the coach
ing line, stopped him as he would surely
have been caught out at the plate. In
the confusion Dougherty was tagged out,
retiring the side.
Los Angeles started well. getting two
runs in the second. 1t secured another IN
the slxth-a home run by Householder
over the center-tield fence. The men from
the south added two more in the ninth.
When Oakland went 10 the bat for its
turn in the ninth il had three runs to its
credit Moskiman hit safe. He went to
third on Babbitt's two-bagger and scored
on hit by Dunleavy. Croli hunted, scor-
ing Babbitt, tieing the score. Neither
side scored in the tenth and Umpire
l1aroie called the game on account of
darkness.
Lohman and Reitz were put out of the
game in the tenth for kicking without
cause. The score:

Final Race characterized by an Ex-
ceedingly Close Finish.

NEW YORK, Oct. At was half an hour
before the preparatory gun when the COM
rnittee boat Navigator hoisted the signal ID
C. S." indicating that the course would be
fifteen miles to leeward and return
The wind at that time came from the north
northwest and was blowing all of twelve miles
an hour. Both racers came out from the
Horseshoe in tow of their tugs and seemed
slow in getting their sails set The Sham
rock first to hoist her mainsail and also
first to get up her largest club topsail The
Columbia evidently waiting to test the strength
of the wind, did not set her club topsail un-
til 1O:4O Captain Barr decided that the wind
was not too strong for his No l.
At the preparatory signal at 10:45 both boats
were far up to the windward and came down
toward the ightship and just before the warn
ing gun again headed up into the wind sim
ultaneously and worked back to their former
positions. Both on the port tack and
close hauled, with the Columbia on the wealth.
