New York. Sept. 2e7.=Str Thomas Hfp-
ton will not get another opportunity in
1908 60 attempt TO lift the Americas cup
as matters stand today, as his challenge
was declined unanimously last night by
the New York Yacht club, and the decis-
ion was cablcd him at 2 o'clock this
morning.
Sir Thomas asked for a race OF sloops
under the 6S-foot rating and the members
of the club based their refusal TO race
on the general proposition that the AM
erica's cup represents a trophy for the
speediest type OF yacht that can be pro-
duced on q, water-line length Of 30 feet
or under and that therefore any propo-
sitjon to limit the size OF the boats must
be refused.
Sir Thomas letter to the club stated
that he had challenged with a boat of
the 6s-foot class under the New York
Yacht club rules because he thought that
rating fitted the limitations OF the cup
class and because he favored a whole
some type Of boat. He also asked that
he be allowed to build two yachts and
select the better of the two for the cup
race.
The meeting was a large one. More
that 80 yachts were represented by votes.
Commodore Vanderbilt presided and
called the meeting TO order Secretary
Carmack then read the challenge. which
merely laid down the dates OF the races,
the first on Aug. 20. 1905. and the type OF
the challenger, Shamrock Nv, namely.

-cfasy es-foot rating of the existing New
York Yacht club rules, cutter rig.
After the reading of Sir Thomas letter,
Commodore Lewis Cass Ledyard con-
tended that the Americas cup stood for
speed on given water-line length; that
IL belittled the cup to accept challenge
with a small boat and also pointed out
that the challenge was informal, because
IL did not give the water-line length OF
the challenger. but only It's rating. He
declared the club was willing to accept
a. challenge under the conditions under
which the cup had been raced for at any
time, If a 90-footer should be built. and
ended by submitting resolutions declining
the challenge.

President William Peet OF the National
Roller Polo league, who was In the city
yesterday. spoke very enthusiastically OF
the outlook for roller polo in this section
the coming winter. The season will open
about Nov. 4, he said. The addition OF
Providence and Pawtucket to the circuit,
he declared, was OF great Importance to
the league, strengthening IL I'm every way.
1t is also probable that at least one more
team from the East will be admitted he
said. and chances favor Taunton. al
though Brockton has put in a bid for the
franchise.
At the meeting at New Haven Tuesday
night Is delegates were present, the cities
represented being Hartford. New Haven.
Bridgeport Waterbury and Wailingford.
Providence and Pawtucket were admitted
making with New Britain an eight-club
circuit. IL is probable, however, that Wal
lingford and possibly New Britain will
dispose OF their franchises, and IL so both
Taunton and Brockton will be given
place. This would make an ideal circuit.
