Sir Thomas Upton by the Dennys. at
Dumbarton. Captain Robert Wringe.
who, with Captain Hogarth. was on board
the Shamrock In her races for the cup,
will be in command. All the plans are
now completed. and arrangements have
been made for closing the building con-
tract. The satisfaction which Mr.. Fife
expressed with the Thornycrofts' work on
the Shamrock made that frm q strong
competitor for the contract but Mr. Wat
sons influence resulted in the ssisction
Of the Dsnnys.
The yacht will be constructed under

NOT SURPRISING.
That Sir Thomas Upton has been con-
sulting both Mr.. Fife and Mr.. Watson
regarding the designs for another cup
challenger ever since his return to Eng
land after the defeat of the Shamrock IL
has been understood on this side of the
Atlantic by leading yachtsmen for long
time
Indeed. when a prominent member OF

ing the cup" with another boat. and ad-
mitted. IL is said, that Mr.. Fife would

that Mr.. Watson, who has been associated

Meanwhile the Shamrock III is high and

rigging are gone, damaged beyond the
point of usef ness by the fire that took
place in the yard In addition to new sails
and rigging for the boat the hull will re-
quire liberal repairing II this boat Is used

she will be available to defend the cup

to be used a trial vessel for the Con-
sutution. or any other boat that may be
