Sir Thomas Upton Believes He

New York. Aug. 21.-Sir Thomas Upton.
owner of Shamrock III. challenger for the
Americas Cup. arrived in this city to-
night. He met with the most cordial Amer
lean recertion-indeed. the steamship Teu-
tonic. on which he was n passenger. re-
ceived one continuous ovation from Sandy
Hook to her dock.
Sir Thomas and his party were driven to
the Waldorf-Astoria for dinner. To-mor-
row morning he will take up his quarters
on the steam yacht Erin. now anchored
OF Stapleton. Included in the party CT Sir
siSner of the shamrock; Charles Russell,
who will represent the Royal Ulster Yacht

The only thing that Sir Thomas has to

Of measurement.

to be preferred. 1t results in more beautiful.

No Chance for undergraduates.
Judging from conversation with Sir Thom-

likely Shamrock II will engage the indie

Ienge applies only to the defender selected
by the New York Yacht Club, and tina II

was a strong bull tip anoat.
Ihough there were no sales. the value Of
the stock. as indicated by the bids and Of
iers. advanced greatly. Wednesdays clos
lng BID was $47 a share. 1t the close of
