LIPTON READY TO ISSUE CHALLENGE In Interview Says It Is Ambition of His Life to Lift America Cup Game English Sport Keady to Make Another Try. (Cattea1 Trwm Leeeefl irtre.t ' London, Sept 1. Sir Thomae Llpton aTtanda ready at a momesf a notice to le an a another challenge for the America cap. providing that ha recelvea aome vtiggeatlon, even the slightest, that It will be favorably considered by the New , Tork Tacht club committee. During a ' lengthy interview with a Hearst News man tonight, he Bald: "It is the ambition of my life to lift ' the America's cup, and I would willing ly apend my last six pence If necessary In order to realize my desire. I am ready to issue another challenge this ln - atant, and would do ao if I felt that the committee of the New York Yacht club would give It favorable consideration. ' Naturally, I do not wish to embarrass the committee by sending a challenge which they cannot aea they way clear to coept. Wants Encouragement. 1 don't want any informal notifica tion mat a cnauenge on the lines I sug gest will be accepted. I simply desire , an Intimation that my challenge will be welcomed. The time la getting short in which to aend a challenge this year. In order to have a race next September it will be necessary to dispatch the chal lenge not later than October 20. ''My challenge. If sent. Would be for a (0-foot boat on the water line, built under the universal rule. I will build two boats, one by Milne, the other by Fife, and let the better of the two be the challenger. I am willing to meet the New York Yacht club In any possi ble manner. I am anxloua to have an other go at the cup. "If I were a designer myself, I would race with another freak boat, if neces sary, but, not being a designer, I am un der the disadvantage of being unable to find a reputable designer who will run the risk of sending another freak across the Atlantic rast Type. "The New York Yacht club and all the leading yacht clubs in America have evolved a seaworthy fast type under the universal rule. Boats competing in -the yacht race of America are obliged to be built under this rule. Is it unreason able, therefore, for me to ask that the challenger be built under the New York Yacht club's rules?" The Hearst News correspondent is in a position to state that it Is only the lear ol anotner refusal mat prevents Llpton from Immediately sending an other challenge. Ha is sensitive on this Dolnt The English press would gladly avail Itself of such an excellent oppor tunity to answer American criticism on England's sportsmanship evoked by the Olympic games by pointing out to what extremes American sportsmen go In or der to keep the cup in the United States. During the last fortnight Llpton had numerous discussions with Sir Smith, who sailed on the Baltic. Smith will endeavor to sound members of the New York committee on their attitude toward a challenge, and probably will cable Llpton the result of his inquiries. The challenge, which is now practically drawn, may De sent on very soon. HEAVY LOSS BY TIMBER FIRES Four States and Part of Can ada Are Fighting De structive Fires. (Hearot ICewi by Longest Leased Wire.) Boston, Sept. 19. Four states and a part of Canada are desperately fighting forest fires which have already caused a loss of about 1500,000 and probably will cost Maine alone a round $1,000,000 before the flames burn themselves out or are extinguished. Heavy raina are the onlv relief possible for the stricken Maine counties. An army of men that has been fighting the fires in various towns in an effort to prevent the fire reaching the settlements and villages is well night exhausted, but they dare not stop-for fear that the walls of flame will meet and hem in the smaller places. Among the places threatened in Maine are n;iiswortn, surry, .urookaviue ana Lisbon. The latter town was only saved by help from Lewiston. Blsbon Falls. Brunswick and Augusta, In Klneo a ground fire is destroying acres of valu able timber -by eating up the roots of the trees. The town or Jackson was saved by a fortunate change of wind.
