The annual motor boat carnival on the Hud¬ 
son River was held last week. The races took 
place off the club house of the New York 
Motor Boat Club at the foot of W. 147th street, 
and were managed by a joint committee of that 
club and the Motor Boat Club of America. The 
first three days—Wednesday, Thursday and 
Saturday were devoted to series racee for the 
several championships and a fair lot of yachts 
competed in these events. In the class for fast 
boats, Dixie II., Elco-Craig and Willow Brook 
started the first day, and Dixie II. was the only 
one to complete the course. She started late 
through an accident early in the day, causing 
some delay. She struck a submerged log and 
smashed her stem, but repairs were hurriedly 
made, so that she was only six minutes late 
at the start, which had been postponed one 
hour, fortunate for her. Willow Brook broke 
down during the race, and while on the second 
round, Elco-Craig met with an accident, filled 
with water and sank. She was towed into the 
shore before she went to the bottom, so that 
she was in shoal water and was later raised. 
In the next class there were seven starters, 
and the race was won by Hadaur. She beat 
Rochester, a low-powered craft, 2m. 16s. cor¬ 
rected time, and Vim and Den, the two highest 
power boats in this class, were badly beaten. 
Avis was the winner in the large cruising 
boat class. She had to allow time to Alabama 
and Wanderlust, and won the race with 2m. 
d3s. to spare. Hys, winner of the race from 
Bermuda, had a sailover in her class, and 
Talequah was the winner in the small class.

SECOND DAY. 
Seventeen boats started in the second of the

29 miles an hour. In class A there were seven 
starters, and three of these—Hadaur, Racine 
and Whim—broke down. The race was won by 
Rochester, a very capable boat, that finished

FOURTH DAY. 
Long distance races occupied the attention of 
the motor boat men on the last day of the 
carnival. The high-speed boats were sent up 
the river to Poughkeepsie and back, and the 
cruising craft, two classes, turned a mark off 
Peekskill. 
The high-speed craft had a close race. The 
course is 115 miles, and the race was won by 
J. H. Hoadley’s Den. That yacht beat Gunfire 
II., a new boat, by 7m. 21s. corrected time. 
Gunfire II. led all the way but lost on corrected 
time. 
In the cruising class for yachts over 40 feet 
there were six starters. J. G. N. Whittaker’s 
Ilys, the winner of the race home from Ber¬ 
muda, won the race with Avis second and 
Alabama third. In the race for boats under 40 
feet, XI., made the best time, but she was dis¬ 
qualified for not crossing the starting line 
properly. S. W. Granberry’s Irene II. took the 
prize. The summaries:

More Sailing Dories. 
Sailing dories are to be boomed on Narr 
gansett Bay. About fifteen members of 1 
Conanicut Y. C. are working up interest in t 
class, and have signified their intentions 
building or buying the little craft. 
The boats, it is said, will be modeled aft' 
the fashion of the Gravesend and Massachuset 
bay craft, so that there may be a series of inle 
bay contests arranged. At Conanicut they a 
planning to get ail the younger people in tf 
club interested in the sailing dories, and ne 
year will probably see great interest in the littj 
craft, which for pure fun cannot be equaled. 
There are already seven of that type of bo 
at the Taunton Y. C., two at Barrington ai 
three at Washington Park, so that with the a 
dition of the proposed Conanicut fleet, there w 
be at least twenty-five sailing in this division 
Larchmont Schooner Cup. 
The annual race for the Larchmont schooit 
cup was sailed last Saturday in a fresh nort 
west wind. But two yachts started for tl 
cup race, F. F. Brewster’s Elmina and Georj 
S. Scott’s Miladi, and Elmina won very easil
