SHAMROCK BACKERS SHY.
Wagers Made Rather on Such I'm
certointies as Weather.

As = result of an argument over racing condi-
tions q couple Of small bets were made az up
town hotel last night en the prospect Of race be-
ing finished to-day
= party Of friends were seated around table in
the Albenare cafe, one Of whom was glancing over
the weather cha.t and forecast in paper. Jokingly
he offered 10 bet SZ5 even that there weuld not be
enough wind 10 finish to-day.
One of the party at once took him up saying
= haven't read ths forecast, and don want to- but
III take a flyer it. Put up the money The
man who made the proposition tried 10 hedge. but
his friends prodded him into producing his money.
rhereupon ensued 2 general discussion of
weather prospects which brought out several more
small wagers.
There was little or betting uptown the
yachts. On the curb yesterday odds Of to

the Cup. The shamrocks hackers wanted 10 TO !
Three to one was offered that the Shamrock would
not win a race. Little betting was done on the

THE RELIANCE Has SPIN.
Sir Thomas Sees Nez0 MainsaI Bent
on the Shamrock.

The Cup is never won until the best boat mas
taken three races" said C. Oliver Iselin just
before going on board the Reliance yesterday
morning Mr. Iselin went down TO Sandy Hook
in company with Herbert c. Leeds, Woodbury.
Kane and several other members OF the New
York Yacht Club. and at 10 o'clock they went
aboard the Cup defender.
The crew under the direction OF Captain
Barr, had already hoisted the mainsail and
cubtopsail, and after the party was aboard the
lib and staysan were set, and she filled away
for a sail stretching spin Before joining the
Reliance Mr. Isein was asked whether he
thought the reneasurement of Shamrock III
would have any effect on the future races !
know no more about 1t than you do" said he
Attention was called to the matter of the ae-
sence of the anchor and chain, not so much on
account of its effect on any racing. as to follow
absolutely the rules. Sir Thomas would have
felt it much more keenly if the issue had been
raised after he had Won race"
Mr. Iselin would not discuss the race OF Sat
urday or the criticisms raised concerning the
sailing of Shamrock III further than to say:
Both boats were well handled"
The bay inside the Hook was deserted this
morning, except for the presence Of the Re
lance and her tender, the Sunbeam. 1t was
not good day for racing. The wind was fuky
from the north and east, very variable, and not
strong enough to get the boats over the course
in time, had it been race day. The Reliance
stood out beyond the Hook, with her malnsalb
club topsail jib and staysail set. She tackled sew
eraI times while stretching her sails. After she
had been out half hour a new jb was tried
and later some club topsails At lilo the Re
lance headed back for the Hook. She picked
up her moorings at 11:35
The two Shamrocks in tow of the Upton tug
Cruiser arrived at the moorings off Sandy
Hook at 2:3O p. m The mansaI of Shamrock
III had been unbent on the way down the Bay.
It was taken at once to the storage barge Com
mander, and another mainsan was taken by the
crew over to the yacht and bent.
The new sail is Ratsey, and Sir Thomas Lip
ton and Captain WTinge declare the change is
made, not because the other mainsan was con-
sidered inadequate. but that the new sail, which
has been tried before and found to be a good
one, may be better for to-mOrroW's race. The
new mainsail, when fully stretched, was much
better fit than the old one. Sir Thomas Upton
watched closely the change of sails.
The Shamrock did not go out after returning
from New-York. The Relance's crew watched
with interest the Shamrocks men at work on
their sail.

IN GOOD TRIM FOR RACE.
Nee Mmnsails on Yachts The
Heather and the Course.

The lccal Weather Bureau is in receipt of the
following from Washington:
To Observer New-York: The winds Tuesday over
the international yseht race course WI @ De nghs
ers. FR+ANKENFIELD.
If this weather prediction holds true there
will be wind enough to finish the race in the
required time Of fve and half hours, the
yachts probably going first to q point off Long
Beach.
Al midnight the wind at Sandy Hook
blowing FIVE miles an hour. The weather was
clear
In better trim than ever. If such condition
be possible, the two giant ninety-foot yachts.
the Reliance and Shamrock III, will meet again
of Sandy Hook Lightship this morning to begin
their second contest for the possession of the
Americas Guy. In whose favor this marine
battle will enc one may say it is easy TO guess,
after witnessing the performance Of the Reli-
ance on Saturday. but matter Of fact, no
race is until the finish line is crossed. and
who shall say which of those two splendid
yachts will attain the honor of crossing IL first
by sufficient margin TO win to-days race?
Over q triangular course, each leg of which
measures ter nautical miles, the yachts are to
sail to-day. The regatta committee-MesSr
8. Nicholson Kane, NeWbury D LaWton and Ed
ward s. Wales-will endeavor so TO lay out the
courses that one OF the legs will be dead beat
TO windward, one reach, and the other run
before the wind.
The start is TO be made at as near II O clock
as possible, and If q postponernent is necessary
the preparatory signal viii be given on the even
quarter half hour. It is understood that IL
the direction of the wind prevents the LAYING
Of the course from the lightship the starting
line Will be shifted TO the nearest available
point.
The Reliance and Shamrock III have both bent
rnainsails and they have tried some new
headsalls and clubtopsails since Saturdays race
In Thursdays attempted race their sails all got
vet in the squall, and that accounts in part the
nautical sharps say, for the bad set of the Sham
rocks mainsaL il Saturdays race. However.
the thousands who go down the Bay this morn
ing to cheer their favorte yachts, may expect to
see better fitting suits OF sails on both con
testants-
The Reliance and Shamrock III have met
twice. and the starts have been very tame each
time. nothing like the recent ones between the
Reliance and the Constitution for closeness.
Yachtsmen hope to-day TO see close and ex-
citing start between the yachts if there is a
good breeze. Much OF the interest in the race
centres about the start. especially where the
first leg Of the course is 10 vin6ward for the
skipper who has the weather berth can gen
orally keep il for some time after II the speed
Of the yachts IS nearly equal

WEATHER BUREAU PROMISES LITTLE
Showers and Variable Winds, from Light to
Fresh. Is the Prediction for Today.

It IS hardly probable that the fine weather OF
Saturday will be duplicated over the racecourse
to-day. The best thing that the Weather Bu-
reau can promise is a light or fresh wind. which
is likely TO box the compass half dozen times.
Even the winds promised Will probably be
deadeIied by showers. The chances are that
there viii be a short choppy sea on. that will
not only hamper the work Of the boats, but
