Western Yachts. 
Chicago, 111., July 13. — It seems that Cadillac, the Han- 
ley candidate, is, after all, to come on to Chicago and 
sail in the trial races among the proposed defenders of the 
Canadian cup. which races will begin on July 20. The boat 
left Detroit, Mich., on the deck of a lake steamer yester- 
day, and barring accidents, the steamer should arrive 
liere Sunday afternoon — to-morrow. During the voyage 
around through the lakes workmen will be busy on Cadil- 
lac making the corrections and improvements which wall 
be necessary, so that she will be ready for launching as 
quickly as the steamer reaches Chicago. Mr. C. C. Han- 
ley, the designer of Cadillac, is going around with the 
boat, and will sail on her in the trial races. Cadillac 
reached Detroit last Tuesday evening from Quincy, Mass., 
after a checkered voyage by rail, canal, etc. Those who 
have seen the boat state that it looks quite the racer and 
shows great strength of line. On deck Cadillac is said to 
be not pretty, nearly straight sided, with the bluff of the 
bows well forward. On the waterline Cadillac's lines are 
pleasant, and although the yacht would seem to pound in 
a heavy sea when on an even keel, when listed she presents 
fair lines to the water and travels like a bird. The length 
of the boat is 34.81ft., which crowds the 35ft. limit pretty 
close, one would imagine. It is 40ft. over all, 27.75ft. 
waterline, ii'.4ft. beam, and the draft of the hull i6in., and 
the normal canvas 1,488.5 sq. yds. CadiHac has two tons 
of inside ballast. 
Orion's Crew. 
The crew that will sail Orion in the trial races at Chi- 
cago a week from to-day will be composed of Rene Hil- 
bert, skipper; Carl Hilbert, Fred P. Cook, Horace Enos, 
Rudolph Moreback and Bruno Nordberg, Jr. 
Columbia Y. C. 
Lady skippers will sail several of the boats which will

Pierre Lorillard. 
Mr. Pierre Lorillard, well known the world over as a 
prominent yachtsman and turfman, died on Sunday, July 
7, at the age of sixty-eight years. Mr. Lorillard was a 
member of the Union Club, the Racquet Club, the Knicker- 
bocker Club, the New York Y. C, the Grolier Club and 
many others. 
Mr. Lorillard was a devoted yachtsman, and did much 
toward the advancement of the sport. He was one of the 
first to realize the advantages of Newport as a center for 
yachting and yacht racing. His liberality in offering cups 
did much to keep up an interest in yacht racing. He 
owned the schooner Vesta, and he sailed on her in the 
race from Sandy Hook to Cowes against Fleetwing and 
Henrietta. It was a sweepstake race for $10,000. Later 
he had the steam yacht Radha built, and she was one of 
the largest and finest yachts of her time. Mr. Lorillard 
was one of the first to realize the possibilities of house- 
boating, and ten years ago he built a magnificent house- 
boat for use in Southern waters. She was known as 
Caiman, and her owner entertained a large number of 
guests every winter on her. Caiman was destroyed by 
fire about a year ago, and an order was immediately placed 
for a larger and more elaborate house-boat. Although 
Mr. Lorillard has not been particularly active in yachting 
circles during recent years, still his loss will be keenly 
felt among yachtsman in general, and he will ever be 
remembered as a man who has done much to promote the 
world's noblest sport — yachting.
