1t strikes me that the cable messages
from abroad are distinctly misleading IN
saving that Sir Thomas Upton "stpi-
lates" that the yachts be 70 feet on the
waterline and that the best three out OF
five races be sailed. The challenge PROP
ably says that he Will bring over 10

deed of gift. and that he suggests three
out Of five races. as has been the case IN
the latest races for the cup, another priv
lece the challenger enjoys. As TO fall

fender, which has been suggested the
idea is too absurd. N the first place il

Just before he returned to England, and
true to his promise a challenge for the

to make its acceptance mere matter OF
