Motor Boats.

For the motor-boatist chief interest nat
uraliy centers in the attempt on the part
of England to recapture the British In
ternational or Harmsworth Cup, won last
year in British waters by the American
boat Dixie. A challenge has been received
from the British Motor Yacht Club In be-
half OF Lord Howard de Walden, whose
three Daimler boats were Yanquished by
the American boat of Southampton last
year. His new boat, which will race In
these waters this coming summer, has
already been built, and will be tried out
In the races at Monaco, the scene OF the
most famous motorbo races In the
world, early In the spring before she
crosses the Atlantic to attempt to regain
the cup. American builders and owners
have not been idle, however. At City
Island, n. Y, a boat with a guaranteed
speed of 81 miles an hour is being built
from designs Of Messrs Tams, Lemoine
and Crane. the men who designed the
Dixie. The name OF the owner OF this
