now completing fitting out. Savarona was 
jaunched on May 9. 
TAORMINA LAUNCHED.—The 65ft. waterline

JoHN B. KILLEEN, 
Free Alcohol. 
On May 28 the bill known as the Denatured 
Alcohol Bill with the Senate amendments was 
agreed to in the House, on motion of Mr. Payne 
(New York), its author. The bill now goes to 
a President for his signature. In view of the 
increase in cost of gasolene and the probable ex- 
haustion of the supply, gasolene is no longer a 
practical form of fuel from an engineering stand- 
point. The Free Alcohol bill, permitting the use 
of alcohol in all branches of manufacturing, and 
also where power is needed, after denaturization, 
will admit of the development of the motor in- 
dustry on a basis of a certain full supply depend- 
dent only on the process of conversion of vege- 
table growth, at a decreasing price, for fuel and 
not on a supply from the bowels of the earth, 
which at any time, and without warning, may 
cease. The energies that have made the gasolene 
motor so efficient a machine, will no doubt before 
long produce an alcohol motor, that will be less 
expensive for the same power and more simple 
in its construction. 
YACHTING NEWS NOTES. 
SouTHERN Y. C. SONDERKLASSE Boat.—Since 
the decision of the Southern Y. C. was made 
known to enter a boat for the trial races for the 
Roosevelt Cup at Marblehead, much speculation 
as to the designer has taken place. Reports were 
current that Burgess and Packard would design 
and build, but their plant was so busy at the last 
minute that they were obliged to throw the con- 
tract over, and it seemed as if one competitor 
would be left out of the racing. Within a few 
days Forest AND STREAM received a_ telegram 
from Mr. S. D. Sampsell, secretary of the South- 
ern Y. C., stating that the contract had been 
awarded to Messrs. Small Brothers, of Boston, 
and the work was then proceeding. 
RRR 
YacutT SALEs.—The auxiliary yawl Sayona has 
been sold by Mr. F. C. Swan, of the New York 
Y. C., to Mr. C. T. Grantham, of the Royal Ham- 
ilton Y. C., Hamilton, Ont., through the office of 
Mr Stanley M. Seaman, 220 Broadway, New 
York city. Sayona was owned and built for 
Henry M. Tinker, of the New York Y. C., 
1900 from designs of Mr. T. E. Ferris by tpkes 
J. M. Bayles & Sons, Port Jefferson, N. Y. She 
is a cruising craft of very heavy construction and 
has made many successful trips along the coast. 
Her present owner has had her stripped for the 
trip through the Erie Canal and is expected to 
arrive in Hamilton this week. She may be con- 
sidered among the best Eastern built craft now 
on the Great Lakes. 
mR eR 
THE GERMAN SONDERKLASSE.—The following 
names are those of the entrants for the trial races 
at Kiel to select a team to be sent to Marblehead 
this summer. We noted some time since the 
Mouriscot, belonging to King Alphonso XIII; the 
second, Santiago, owned by the Real Sporting 
Club. The German boats are Angela II. the 
Crown Prince; Tilly VII., Tilly VIII., Sonder- 
ling, Lunula, Paters Hans, Paul, Molch, Glueck- 
hauf, Vallent, Rest, Hannover, Panther and Soca, 
a boat from Sweden, in all sixteen boats. 
Rm 
SHooTERS’ ISLAND TO ReEopeEN.—Mr. W.. D. 
Dickey, for the last thirty years a prominent fig- 
ure in the shipbuilding and repairing business at 
Erie Basin, and till now the manager for the Erie 
Basin Dry Dock Co., has been placed at the head 
of the enterprise which will rehabilitate the 
Shooters’ Island shipbuilding plant, formerly un- 
der the management of Messrs. Townsend and 
Downey. Messrs. Townsend and Downey were 
forced to abandon their business by reason of 
continual strikes, and for a number of years the 
plant has been idle. Yachtsmen will remember 
that at Shooters’ Island the German Emperor’s 
yacht Meteor, Shenandoah, Azara, Neola and 
Weetamoe and the auxiliary schooner Atlantic, 
winner: of the ocean race last year, were built. 
Mr. Dickey is well known in the _ ship 
world of New. York and will bring great ability 
and experience to bear on a plant on which no 
expense was spared. The board of directors will 
comprise the following gentlemen: Messrs. Henry 
P, Davidson, vice-president of the First National 
Bank, New York city; R. D. Benson, vice-presi- 
dent of the Tidewater Oil Company ; leap lets AG. 
Young, president of ae First National Bank of 
Jersey City; Philip S. Babcock, vice-president of 
the Colonial Trust Company; J. F. Frederichs, 
cashier ‘of the German- American National Bank; 
W. D. Dickey and George B. Case.
