 Ellis and Woodland second. 



In the fours, three crews started: Johnston, Hackburu, Stewart 

 and Tilley, Iredale, Ford, Ellis and Bell, R. B. Elgie, Sanderson, 

 Thomson and Brown. They finished in tne order named, the 

 winning crew being composed of two champion paddlers, John- 

 ston and Tilley. and two other very strong men.

HUMBER YAWL CLUB.— The Humber Yawl Club, of Hull, 

 England, the only clab w uich devotes itself specially to the cano^' 

 yawl, is a very lively and vigorous organization, with a flwet of 36 

 boats, mostly canoe yawls, from 13 to 24ft. length and 3 to 6i.t. 

 beam. Tbe membership is 45. The club has two notable features- 

 its annual cruise, usually to Holland, The boats being sv.'ung

MR. BURGESS' WORK. 



n^H AT republics are not always ungrateful hasbeen very clearly 

 proven in the honors of all kinds that have been showered 

 upon Mr. Burgess by Americans; honors such as have never 

 before fallen to the lot of a designer. While his efforts have 

 received the heartiest recognition of American yachtsmen, the 

 real magnitude of the work tbat he has done is still unappreci- 

 ated by the majority. The fa^-t tliat he has been the means of 

 defeating all challengers and keeping the America's Cup in New 

 York is indeed a very smaU matter in Itself; the great point is 

 tbat to liim is chiefly due the credit for forcing American yachts- 

 men to accept a t) pe of yacht which, however good for them, they 

 did not want. Puritan herself was the outcome of years of hard 

 fighting against the heaviest odds on the pirt of a small handful 

 of "cutter cranks," with whose leading principles Mr. Burgess 

 was at least in strong sympathy, if he was not one of them. The 

 faults and dacgers of the American type of yacht, together with 

 the advantages of the lead keel snd the cutter rig, had been 

 proven beyond question long before Puritan was dreamed of; and 

 yet Americans as a body h«^ld firmly to the old type, and would 

 have none of the new-fangled British inonvations. 



So far as practical demonstration of the truth of its principles' 

 the work of the "cutter cranks" has been successful: but it had 

 stopped far short of a complete and popular success, in that 

 yachtsmen still hesitated from motives of prejudice and local 

 feeling from adopting features wiiich were so prominently identi- 

 fied with the yachts of another nation. 



To such an extent did this feeling prevail even so late as 1884, 

 when the necessity for a Cup defender wa« apparent, that with a 

 full knowledge of the value of the lead keel before it, the New 

 York Y. C. in deciding on the type of yacht which should defend 

 the Cup, was true to its principles and built a steel scow, with in- 

 side ballast and slo- p rig. The club is a progressive body; it had 

 got beyond Pocahontas, but not very far, and it still held to the 

 old ideas of model, rig and ballasting. 



Educated, lioeral and progressive, 'Mr. Burgess was quick to 

 perceive the opportunity, and to avail himself of it. Unhampered 

 by the narrow bounds of miscalled pati'iotism, and fully appreci- 

 ative of the fact that the truths of science have no political nor 

 geographical limits, he used to tbe utmost the whole range of 

 advantages and appliances open to the yacht designer. What- 

 ever the origin of her lead keel or her cutter rig, the Puritan was 

 distinctively American, in that slie represented thought, enter- 

 prise and progress; the same restless, energetic effort which has 

 achieved success in so many other fields. 



With her success, the work of the "cutter cranks" was fully ac- 

 complished, the day of the wide, shoal and dangerous sloop was 

 ended and a new era of better and safer craft, whose design was 

 based on principles and not on prejudices, was begun. The suc- 

 cess ot Puritan at once opsned an easy way for the general adop- 

 tion of lead ballast and a different rig oti American yachts; an 

 opening that has since cei'tainly been utilized to its fullest extent. 

 The mere retaining of the cup by Puritan was a comparatively 

 small matter, it is not unlikely tbat had she not been built Pris- 

 cilla might have defeated Genesta. Had such been the case, how- 

 ever, the fleet to-day would have been composed ot a very dif- 

 ferent class of boats; the old ideas would have hung on, with a 

 new lease of life; and inside ballast and the sloop rig might even 

 now have been found in a large number of recently built craft. 



Whatever objections may fairly be made to the extreme racing 

 craft of the day, there is no proof needed of the radical improve- 

 ment in the whole fleet of American yachts, from the largest 

 scr. joners on the coast down to the smallest catboat or sloop on 

 lakes or millponds, and the birth of this new era, the popular 

 recognition of a new order of things in yacht designing, dates 

 from the advent of Mr. Burgess as the expounder of more ad- 

 vanced and liberal ideas. 



MATCH RACES.— Two match races have been arranged by 

 Fleet Captain Peabody, New York Y. C, for the schooner Mar- 

 guerite, R. S. Palmer. One is with Huron, cutter. Rear Com. W. 

 Buder Duncan, N. Y. Y. C, and the other with Iroquois, schooner, 

 Yice-Com. Ellis, S. O. Y. C. Both will be sailed off Newport after 

 the New York Y. C. cruise. The match with Huron is for g250 

 the loser to pay the expenses of the contest. The New York Y. 0. 

 rules will govern, except that there will be no time allowance; 

 the time limit is six hours, the yachts will start on one gun, 

 and there will he no restrictions, except that clubtopsails are 

 barred. The course will be 10 miles to windward or leeward and 

 return. The conditions governing match with Iroquois are the 

 same, except that there are no restrictions as to sails and time 

 limit is fixed at five hours, for a stake of 8500. It is probable that 

 both races will be sailed immediately. In either match if one 

 boat should break down within thirty minutes from the start, she 

 will lie given forty-eiglit hours In whicb to make repairs and come 

 to the line again, 



OBIGIN OF GLORIANA.— A very fierce tempest has been 

 waging in a very small teapot as to whether the entire credit for 

 ordering a46-footer from the HerreshofTs should be given to Vice- 

 Corn. Morgan, or whether the boat which has proved such a flyer 

 was first ordered by Mr. Royal Phelps Carroll; the order being 

 countermanded and the boat finally completed for her present 

 owner. If almost any other yachtsman than Mr. Morgan were 

 concprned, there might be some ground for such a dispute, but m 

 view of the money he has spent and the spirit he has shown in 

 building new boats, the present discussion seems entirely un- 

 necessary. Leaving Gloriana entirely onfc of the question, Mr. 

 Morgan's reputation as a plucky, persevering and spirited racing 

 man was established before the 48ft. class was thoTight of. 



classes in England to paint each boat of a distinctive color, after 

 the plan of racing jockeys, and the effect should bo pleasing when 

 a number are seen in company. In these days of decoration and 

 high art the yachtsman might get some valuable liints in paint- 

 ing his boat from a professional artist, at least something better 

 than dull white. 



RIVERSIDE Y. C. 



''PHE third annual regatta of the Riverside Y. C. was sailed on 

 JL Saturday, July 11, on L^ng Mind Sound, starting from off 

 the club house, at Cos Cob, Conn., tbe c iurse3 being: For 

 schooners, sloops and cutters to B'.ack Buoy, off eastern point of 

 Little Captsin's Island, kepping it on starboard, thence around a 

 mark off Matinnicock Point, keeping it on port hand, thence 

 around a. mark off Centre Island, thence home: seventeen milas. 

 For classes under 30Et. ^o Flat Necli Buoy, keeping it on port band, 

 thence to Cow's Buoy, off Shippan Point, keeping It on starboird 

 hand, to a stake boat anchored three and one-fourth nautical 

 miles southwest by west of that buoy and thence home; eleven 

 miles. 



The wind was very light from the east all day; the schooners 

 Princess, Rpbecca and Viator being unable to reach the start in 

 time. Tbe full times were:

The boats were classf-d uu'ier the corrected len^tti .tiystem lately 

 adopted by the Riverside Y. C, the re -nit being very satisfactory 

 so far as the proper grouping of the various yucbra ia ( lasses i.s 

 concerr.ed. The Clapbam boat Ctiippeway beat the fast open b-'Ut 

 Si rene very badly. The regatta was very well mantiged oy tbe 

 committee, Messrs. F. B. Jones, W. A. Hufliagton and C. E. 

 Wilson. Tne steamer J. G Emmons carried a large party of 

 guests over the course, the day closing with a dinner and danee. 



COLORS OF YACHTS.- It seems curious that, with all shades 

 of color to choose from, but two, white and black, have proved at 

 all suitable for yachts. Blue has been tried at times, as on the 

 little etep-ioer Aida, and on the royal yachts of Great Britaia, but

LIGHT DUES FROM YACHTS. 



''pHERE is more trouble ahead for vaehtsmen at the hands of 

 X the Commissioner or Navigation, Mr. W. W. Bates, as will 

 be seen, from the following circular: 



Treasury Department, | 

 Washington. D. C, July 9, 1891. )' 

 Collector of Customs, New Vork, N. Y.: 



sir— inis office IS in receipt of your letter, dated the 21 inst., 

 requesting instructions whether clues are collectable under sec- 

 tion 4,335, R. S., as light money from vessels arriving from domes- 

 tie ports. 



The bureau held Oct. 38, 1887 (S. 8,508), that such dues accrue, 

 under section 4,325, R. 8., on undocumented foreign i luilt vessels 

 owned by citizens of the Unitt-d States and on undocumented 

 domestic built vessels similarly ownpd, whetueruaed forpurooass 

 of trade or pleasure, on tbeir entering tbe ports of the Ltnited 

 states, and whe'her furnished with ceriitled bill of sale or other- 

 wise, and ihat they should be collected in tue same manner and 

 under the same regulations as tonnage dues— that is, by tne cus- 

 toms officers, who would give receipts. 



This decision covers the case ot vessels entering any jiort of the 

 United States, whether from a domestic or foreign port. The 

 ruling is in accordance with an opinion of the Attorney General 

 dated Aug. 19, 1875, in which he stated that certain fin-eign un- 

 documented vessels when found trading between district and dif- 

 triei are liable to such dues under sections 4,319. 1,325 and 4,371. R.S. 



It should be noticed that the act of June 19, 1886, section 7, re- 

 pealed section 4.371, R. S., only so far as it rcjated to vessels en- 

 titled to be documented as vtssels of ihe United States, the inten- 

 tion of Congress having been to leave it operative as regards other 

 vessels. BesptctfiUly yours, 



W. W. Bates. Commissioner. 



Section 4,225 of the Revised Statutes reads tuus: 



A duty of .50 cents per ton, to be denominated light money, shall 

 be levied and colieciea on all vessels not of tne LTnili^d States 

 which may enter the ports of tbe United States. Such light 

 money shall be levied and collected m the same manner anil 

 under the same regulations as tlie tariff dues.
