12G miles from the Pennsylvania Railroad terminal in New York
City. A party of these officials, with some steamship men, made
the run recently in one hour and fifty-fve minutes, demonstrating
that Montauk Point is actually but two hours from New York.
1t is apparent, therefore, and has been repeatedly pointed ont,
that the establishment of a port of entry at the eastern extremity
Of Long Island would cut down by at least four hours the length
OF the trip from a European port into the heart Of New York City.
In other words, we can already see in the minds eve the Maure-
tanas famous Queenstown-to-New-Yor record of 4 days 10 hours
and Al minutes lowered to 4-641.

America and Great Britain, which was
begun yesterday, was continued today at

ers have two legs and which would
become their permanent property should

Within an hour and half after the

former after thirty-six and the latter
after thirty-eight moves. Barry for
America lost his game with Wahltuch
