BIG YACHTS COMING
Several of the N. Y. Y. g. to Be
at Morris Cove This Week
Wednesday.

Despite the fact that Morris Cove
has again been eliminated from the
itinerary Of the cruise Of the New
York Yacht club the local yachtsmen
expect to see considerable OF the
fleet OF that club during the coming
week.
1t Is rumored that on Wednesday
night the New York "thlrties" will
anchor in the Cove on their way to the
rendezvous at New London on Thurs
day; 1t Is also expected that many
other yachts, which are at present an
chored to the westward, will stop over
here.
The program Of the cruise, briefly,
Is for rendezvous at New London on
Thursday. August 8. The following
day the run to Newport will be made.
Here on Saturday the contests for the
Astor cups will take place. and on
Monday the ownership Of the Kings
cup will be decided. On Tuesday the
fleet will run to Vineyard Haven. fol-
lowing on Wednesday by a run to
Provincetown. Thursday they will
proceed to Marblehead. where on Sat-
urday the contests for the comlno-
dore's Cornelius Vanderbilt) cups are
held. and where the cruise officially
ends.
Considerable interest mas been mani-.
tested by the local yachtsmen over the
contests for the LAstor and Kings cupa.
In both contests Fred T. Brewstersa
Elmina II will be pitted against num-
Der of It's former rivals Of last year and
to say that the local yachtsmen wish
their fellow clubman success would
only BIO mild expression Of their
hopes.
But the New Haven Yacht club Is de-
stined to be represented. by more than
one yacht on this cruise Of tho largest
sailing organization in America.
In class L for sloops, rating between
40 and 4S feet water line. Harry F.
Parmalee, commodore Of the local
yacht club. has entered his Resale and
Judge z. #. Cole Of Waterbury, a trus-
tee and very prominent member Of the
club has entered his Mimosa II. In this
class keen rivalry exists between the
two owners and as there are only two
other sloops entered against them,
these contests will undoubtedly be g
duplication of what those on board the
steamer. John II. Starin witnessed on
Independence day at the regatta Of the
local, Sachem's Head and Hartford
Yacht clubs when the Mimosa II gain
ed close victory over the Rosalie af-
ter an exciting race: and It is sufficient
to say that neither the, Rosalie nor the
i Mimosa II will have Its own way in the
i .contests. ss.s~.s..ssr-
Surely as much interest exists here
over the outcome Of these contests as
! does In any other city on the, North
4 Atlantic seaboard and 1t is with the
ilfondest hope iof success for their fell
