ANOTHER RACE UNLIKELY
LI T ton Says Rules Develop Freak
Yachts Which Sea-Goine; Boat
Cannot Beat Want Mod
ern Kules Adopted.
NEW YORK. Oct. 20. The coming; of
Sir Thomas Upton to the United States
has stirred up a deal of Interest as to
what measslire of success the Irish tar
onet will have In his endeavors to bring
about another race for the America's
. cup. Sir Thomas Is expected here on
the steamer Cedric Saturday and will
ascertain from members of the New
York Yacht Club whether they will ac
cent a challenge under the universal
rules which now govern races held by
the New York Yacht Club or whether
the club still Insists that the cup contest
must be held under the old conditions,
which permit the greatest maximum of
peed upon a given- water-line lengtn
without other restrictions.
Old Rales Develop Freaks.
Sir Thomas holds that the old roles
have resulted" In the development or
freak yachts of such flimsy construc
tion that there Is grave danger of the
challenger going to pieces at sea while
being brought to this country on her own
bottom, as provided in the conditions of
the cotitesst. But under the present rat
ing rules. Sir Thomas believes that a
fast, substantial yacht can Do ouiii ana
the challenger for the cup can be as
sured some chance of success.
The Baronet hopesf to convince the
New York Yacht Club that a race for
the America's, cup- can never be held
under the old conditions, and that. If the
club maintains the attitude tt took two
years ago. it Is equivalent to locking up
the classic "mug - in the ciuds iropny-
room- '
Club Will Not Change Rolea.
It was learned today, however, that
unless the present feeling among the
more Influential club members unner
goes a change. Sir Thomas" visit Is like
lv to fall.
. "Doubtless many members of the club
and the public generally would like to see
another Shamrock In these waters,
said a prominent officer of the New
York Yacht Club today, "but Sir Thomas
must challenge- under the old conditions
which are provided m the deed of gift.
The feeling of the club has undergone no
change.

geons Frank Anderson, C. L. Stokes,

Woods and G. T. Cottle, all of the Navy,
it was decided -thfft the benefits of an
operation were so improbable tna tne
chances of death so great, that an opera
tion MP not considered Justifiable. Mid
shipman Wllson'scondition is very seri
ous, and there is little hope of recovery
in any. case." ... t .

or later to compel the government to
introduce the bill. Just when this will
come to pass, I am not prepared to say."
Mrs. Pankhurst stoutly defended mili
tant tactics. "AH , great movements
have been, worked out by violence." she
said. "The American people secured their
liberty by violence, so why not rush the
House of Commons to obtain what we
regard as our rights? The ballot granted
to women will make them more Intelli
gent, less self-centered and on the whole
much better citizens."
Can't Make Politics Worse.
"Don't you think that there will be
corrupt women politicians and women
ward-heelers?" Mrs. Pankhurst was
asked.
"Well," she replied, "I don't think it
could . make politics any worse at any
rate."
Mrs. Pankhurst declared she had been
a suffragette as long as she could re
member. She had gone to meetings In
favor of the emancipation 'of women
when she was only 14 years old, accom
panied by her mother, who herself . was
an ardent advocate of the cause.
' Mrs. Pankhurst will remain in the
United States until November 22, but
will not be able to get as far west as
Colorado, where suffrage is being tried.
She will speak in Boston Friday and
Worcester, Mass., Saturday, returning to
New York Sunday'for a reception by the

our only business ammunition; so well has it hit the mark' in our older establishments
that we would not consider changing the combination for this new Portland store.
