NEW YORK, July 27-Interest in
the yacht races appeared greatly di-
minished today when the small ex-
cursion fleets left here for the San
dy Hook course with only few
hundred yachting enthusiasts
aboard.
The number Of sailing yachts and
small craft leaving for the races also
was smaller than usual.
One of the largest steamers that
has been carrying crowds was with
drawn because Of lack of patronage
and another such boat had only
few passengers aboard.
Officials of the New York Yacht
Club. however, announced they
would have a full representation in
the Ambrose channel gallery"
Virtually every yacht owned by the
club members was off to the course.

for an allied-soviet conference In

Delay in Arnnistice


VIENNA, July 27:-The soviet
military command notified the Pol
ish commander that he regrets he
is unable to arrange a date before
July 80 for the preliminary armis-
tice between Polish representatives
and those OF soviet Russia. accord
ing to wireless message picked up
here.
The armistice message states two
circumstances make an earlier day
impossible. The first is because the
Polish acts of barbarity have so in
censed the population that serious
obstacles must be, removed to pre-
pare the way for the Poles coming,
and second, because an extensive
troop movement will be necessary.
1t is stipulated, according to the
wireless message that the Polish
envoys must submit to all regula-
tions governing soviet camps, and
concludes with the hope that place
will be fixed for the meeting in
some sector between Baranovitchi
and Brest-Litovsk.
Another Russian wireless mess
age quotes the official Moscow news
paper as saying:
"Soviet Russia will know how to
secure for itself a peace which will
make such a rapacious invasion of
Poland forever impossible"
1t was learned Monday in London
that the peace conference between
Russians and Poles would begin at
Baranovitchi on July 80, and that
the armistice would start the same
day
