At ODDS IN FIGHTING
Little Hope of a Race for the Can
ada'S Gun.

Detroit Dec 19.-DeterTnined efforts end the
controversy between the Rochester Yacht Club and
the Royal Canadian Yacht Club OF Toronto and to
restore the prospect OF Canada's Cup race in
1909 came TO nothing to-day at a meeting of the
council of the Yacht Racing Union which held
at the Hotel Cadillac this city. Aemilius Jarvis
Canadian Yacht Club, and Commodore T. B.
Pritchard OF the Rochester Yacht Club spoke for
the Rochester yachtsmen.
The Canadians stood firmly their contention
that the yacht Seneca. having been built on salt
water and owned at Indian Harbor, y. y.
was not entitled tC compete for the Canadas Cup,
which they asserted aimed to provide an .ex-
clusvely fresh water trophy similar TO the Amer
ica's Cup on salt water. The Canadians also
charged that the Seneca did not comply with the
EcantIing restrictions in force In the union
But they held this TO be a secondary point and
had withdrawn their challenge when the Rochester
club in agreeing arbitrate the scantlings Ques-
ton refused to arbrate the first point Of the con-
troversy.
Commodore Pritchard stated at the meeting that
Mr. Hannah, owner of the Seneca had ordered
that boat built primarily for Canadas Cup con-
test and had a perfect right TO take her to salt
water For other contests. Commodore P1tchard
argued that the membership of Mr. Hannan in the
Rochester club fixed the eligibility OF his boat re-
gardIess OF any she might have entered else
where.
At to-days meeting several amendments to the
miles Of the Yacht Racing Union were adopted to
make them conform 10 those Of the Atlantic Coast
Conference.
