New York Y. C. 
Glen Cove, L. I. Sound — Thursday, Sept. 8. 
The New York Y. C. held its races for autumn cups on Thurs- 
day, Sept. 8. The Regatta Committee was on board Mr. J. L. 
Mott's steam yacht Candida. Commodore S. Nicholson Kane 
was assisted by Mr. A. Cary Smith and Mr. Paul E. Stevenson. 
Mr. Newbury D. Lawton, one of the regular members of the com- 
mittee, was aboard Rainbow with Mr. George A- Cormack. 
Candida established a starting line off Mott's Point. The pre- 
paratory signal was given at 12:20, 50m. later than the time 
scheduled. The breeze was of good strength and held true from 
the S.S.W. throughout the race. 
At 12:25 the 80-footers started. Spasm led over the line, with 
Mimosa III. next and Anoatok last, handicapped 4s. Mimosa III. 
soon took the lead, and was never headed. These boats were to 
have covered a triangle of about 12 miles, but the second mark 
must have gone adrift, as it could not be located by the racing- 
boats, so they kept on, and rounded a mark off Centre Island. 
Mimosa III. beat Spasm 26s. Anoatok did not finish. . 
The seventies and the sixties started on the same gun. Weeta- 
moe was first over, followed, as named, by Yankee, Rainbow, 
Virginia and Neola, which boat was handicapped 17s. These boats 
covered a triangle of 21% miles. The first leg was a spinnaker 
run, the second leg a reach, and the third leg was a beat. At 
the first mark, Yankee was leading, but all three gybed around 
the mark within 7s. of one. another. Weetamoe led Neola lm.- 27s. 
Qn t}?? second leg Neola closed up on Weetarnoe. Virginia and 
Yankee sailed a close race, but the former was 20s. * ahead at 
the second mark, off Shippan Point. The times at the second 
mark were: Virginia, 1:53:05; Yankee, 1:53:25; Rainbow, 1:53:50; 
Weetamoe, 1:58:10; Neola, 1:58:25. 
Rainbow tacked over toward the Long Island beach, leaving 
Virginia and Yankee to fight it out alone. Virginia got Yankee 
under her lee and kept her there. Rainbow sailed beautifully, and 
won, beating Virginia 2m. 17s., and Yankee 4m. 42s. Weetamoe 
drew away from Neola a little, but the latter boat won by lm. Is.

Manchester Y. C 
West" Manchester, Mass. — Thursday, Sept. 8. 
After having been twice postponed, the Y. R. A. open race 
of the Manchester Y. C. was sailed off West Manchester on 
Thursday, Sept. 8. The breeze was N.E., light at the start and 
steadily increasing to the finish. Peri II. was across the start- 
ing line first in the 22ft. class, with Medric on her weather quarter. 
Peri II. led at all the marks and, in the increasing breeze near 
the finish, increased her lead. The 18-footers were bunched at 
the start. Otter led at the first mark, but on the next leg Arrow 
took the lead and held it until they were on the beat to the finish, 
when she lost the lead to Bat, mostly on account of being shy 
one man in her crew. In the 15ft. class, Cigarette had the start 
aiid led about halfway over the course, when Niebelung took the 
lead and held it to the finish. Tarpon led in the handicap class, 
but lost to Peacherine on time allowance. The summary:

Edgewood Y. C. 
Narragansett Bay. R. I. — Monday, Sept. 5. 
The sec -nd of the fall '-ares of the Edgewood Y. C. was held 
Monday afternoon, Sept. 5, in an extremely light wind that pro- 
vided hardy mere than a go».d rtrnting match. On lliis account 
a special short course was given, a triangular course near the 
clubhouse, sailed three times over by the larger boats, giving a 
distance of 6 miles, while the 15-footers went twice over. Of the 
two 30-footers entered, Mblem got the lead at the start, and al- 
though Elizabeth soon afterward passed and opened up a good 
stretch cf water between, she was not able to hold up in going 
to windward in the light air, and steadily dropped behind, Mblem 
finishing 5m. ahead. With the 25ft. cats Mae Hope and Rival 
No ; 1 made a fairly close race, the former winning by 2%m., 
which was too much for the Rival's allowance to overcome. 
With the little fellows, Modox and Seamory held together fairly 
well over the two rounds, the former winning by a trifle under 
3m. The summary :
