In regard to the criticism of the Sc

Shamrock III. Is surrounded, compared
with the publicity in the case of the
construction of the defending yacht. Sir
Thomas Upton says:

are letting out any vital details. phe
secrecy we are observing Is nothing to
what they exercised with their last boat.

Moreover. do you suppose 7 would chal-

fectly agree with him"

New York. Jan. o.-Henry w. Beerman
and John Raney, the aged men seeking
restoration of strength through the gly-
cero-phosphate of sodium treatment. yes
terday showed marked signs of improve
ment.
Both took advantage OF the pleasant
weather to take a stroll. and life took on
added interest for each of them.
This double test OF the treatment by
which Or. Robin so greatly aided former
Mayor Abram s. Hewitt is attracting
more attention every day from New York
physicians who are familiar with the ex-
pertinent. The fact that Beerman Is
eighty-three years old and that Raney is
near the allotted three score and ten has
increased the interest of all In the case.

Raney awoke yesterday. morning from
the most beneficial sleep he has had In
many a day. He retired at 10 o'clock on
Sunday night. and IL was o'clock Mon

WORK ON THE BOSTON ROaT.

The work OF laying down the Crown
inshield cup defender at Boston was not
quite completed yesterday. but II is
thought that II will be finished by tonight.
The scrive board probably will be sent
to the Atlantic works Thursday morn
ing
None of the metal for the boat has ar
rived. but il is expected that some OF the
keel plates will be at the Atlantic works
by the last of the week 1t is expected
that the angle irons for the nickel steel
frames will arrive by the middle of next
week. They will be bent Immediately
upon their arrival
A little Information was obtained yes
terday in the matter of blocks. They
will be of the type known as ''metaline-
bushed." Unlike the ordinary patent
block, there are no rollers In the sheaves.
Instead there are holes bored in the in
side of the sheave, toward the circum-
ference. In these holes composition
composed largely OF graphite is pressed.
The sheave plays directly upon the block
pin and the pressure causes this compost
ton to ooze out upon the pin and con-
stantly lubricates it.
Among some of the old salts. this style
of block does not find much favor. They
prefer the talking block. so called from
the ratcheting sound which is produced
as the strain OF hosting is put upon the
sheave. Metaline-bushed blocks were
used upon the Columbia and were con-
sidered far superior TO the roller sheave
blocks. They are extensively used on
heavy hosting gear.
The work of boarding in the shed at
the Atlantic works was completed yester-
day. and work has been started on the
roof. IT Is expected that the shed will be
completed within a few days.
Nothing more has been heard about
Capt. Watson's appearance upon the deck
OF the Boston cup defender. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Crowninshield has written
TO Mr.. Skinner. asking for Capt. Wat
sons release, but 1t is not expected that
a reply will be obtained for several days.
Boston yachtsmen are confident that Mr.
Skinner will comply with Mr.. Crownin-
shields request
