THE DISOWNED TROPHY. 



IN the deed of gift now in force governing cbailcngfee for the 

 America Cup occur the following olauses; 



14 The challenging potty shall give six months notice in writing. 



" Accompanying toe six months notice must be the t'ustom House 

 certificate of the measurement and a statement of the dimensions, 

 rig and name of tbe vessel. 



o In case the parties cannot mutually agree upon the terms of a 

 match, then the challenging party shall have the right to contest for 

 the cup in one trial, sailed over the usual course of the annual re- 

 gatta of the club holdiug the cup, subject to its rules and sailing 

 regulations, the challenging party not being ronou-ed Io mtmo tho 

 representative until the iin,<- atjwtl upon Jor .'/,< .-lint." 



Mutual agreement is not likely to au'ord a solution when interna- 

 tional rivalry runs high. W'nen the challenger finds i 



tipulated. he

e are to oppose, we decline io give ihe stranger 

 to whom he is to race. \\ Idle » e ask him to sail 

 lies to find usand to takethe weather as ii conies. 

 .blc, we claim the right to pick out our Lest tor 

 I and sea, have them at tho start, select what 

 inditions of the day aud then have tho impu- 

 dence to call it an ei|iiilulile oiler : V e demand thai his sliould be a 

 seal :ui in, \arlti and yet will meet him with a trap of n machine 

 should the day be fair, though tbe trap could no more turn to wind- 

 ward in lumpy water than lly : 



The London Field has pronounced anyone challenging under such 

 conditions as "soil." "A o prouounco the conditions surrounding the 

 cup disgraceful to Ibe fair name of American spot tsmeu. The New 

 York Y C. has a right to enact anything it pleases when the opera- 

 tions are confined to club matters. 



As tho holders m trust of an international trophy, however, they 

 become responsible to the public in general.
