Mrs. Creme Hunter Has Eanksrings for the
Americas Cup.
(By the Assoeiated Press

Montreal, Sept. Serene Hunter, who
is stopping at the Windsor Hotel. this
city, and who claims to be friend of Sir
Thomas Upton, is authority for the
statement that his wife has ambitions
for the Americas cup and may send on
challenge. Creme Hunter comes from
Arrocher, Scotland, and when seen to-
night, his first statement was to dis
claim that he was a millionaire as re-
ported. Mrs. Hunter is at her bone in
Scotland.
According to Mr.. Hunter, Mrs. Hunter,
who he says is an enthusiastic yachts
woman and a member of the Clyde Co
rinthian Club, has had ambitions ever
since the Valkyrie was lost off Hunters
Quay, Scotland, to have a try for the
Americas cup and she has, he says set
aside a sum of twenty thousand pounds
for that purpose. She is to act as her
own skipper and to have an amateur
crew.
Mr.. Hunter says that they have no in
5ertion of interfering with Sir Thomas Lip
ton and that a challenge will be sent
only in case the Irish knight does not
challenge again. In the event o. a boat
being built it will be built by the Messrs.
Denny OF the Clyde.
