After supper for the crews the tug Guid
ing Star took the Reliance in tow, while
the English tug. Cruiser, performed the
same service for the Shamrock III,-- both
the yachts arriving at Sandy Hook at
about sundown. .
The Reliance, and Shamrock swung laz
ily at their moorings Inside Sandy Hook
to-night, ready for the International con
test for the America's cup, the first race
of which will be sailed on Thursday. The
Shamrock III merely returned to her old
moorings < the Reliance coming here for
the first time. The day was one of ex
ceeding interest to all directly interested
In the international race, being devoted
to the official measuring and final groom-
Ings of both yachts. The cleaning of the
under bodies of both was completed this
morning, and Charles ,D. Mower, the offi
cial measurer of the New York Yacht
Club, stretched his steel tape from truck
to deck and from the end of the bowsprit
to the extreme point of the after over
hang of both racers. As one result about
eight Inches of the spinnaker boom . of
the Shamrock III was sawed off, owing
to the fact that It was estimated to be
that much longer than the base of the
forward triangle, which covers the head
sails of the yacht, which would mean
penalization If allowed to stand. Sir
Thomas I,ipton, as well as Mr. Iselin and
Designer Herreshoff and Designer Fife,
were Interested spectators of the work
of Mr.' Mower. Designer Fife evidently
desired that the Shamrock III should be
measured while down by the I stern as
much as possible, for everything mov
able, even to the Jib sheet leader blocks,
was moved and stowed amidships. The
measuring was completed at 4:45 o'clock
and both yachts were warped out of the
basin.

The announcement of the time allow
ance In favor of the challenger caused
little surprise at the yacht club, as It
was the general belief that the Reliance
would prove considerably larger ajl
around tnan her opponent. Following are
the official figures:
official measurer of the New
York Yacht Club. As the result of his
measurements and calculations It was an
nounced to-n.ight that the Reliance would
allow the challenger 1 minute and 45 sec
onds over a thirty-mile course. It was
found that the Shamrock III was slightly
longer on the water line than the Ameri
can boat, but the latter .proved to have
nearly 2000 sciuare feet more of sail area
than the challenger. It was this enor
mous sail spread that taxed the Ameri
can boat so heavily.

CHICAGO, Aug. 18.— There was but one
good race at Hawthorne to-day— that be
tween Hargis and Glassful in the third
event, a handicap at a mile. It was
strictly a two-horse race, the other start
ers never having a chance. From the
head of the stretch to the wire the pair
had a desperate tussle; first one and then
the other was in front, and when the
wire was reached the public had to wait
for the judges to decide the winner. The
decision of the judges, giving the race
to the Corrigan horse, was not well re
ceived, many claiming that Glassful was
over the line first.
There was no development in the Holt
man-Corrigan controversy to-day. Holt
man was given an ovation by the spec
tators when he took his place in the
starters' stand in front of the grand
stand in the third race.

.Veat'ner clear; track fast. Summary
Experienced trainers declare that Irish
Lad was beaten by Hermis to-day be
cause Kcdfern, his rider, was taken by
surprise when Odom suddenly shot Her
mis through next to the rail and obtained
a lead which Irish Lad could not possibly
overcome, because the next three furlongs
were run in Sli 2-5 seconds. It would have
been suicidal for Irish Lad to make the
running when he had to concede six
pounds to Hermis. The riding of Redfern
ft emed to be in accordance with orders
from, the stable, judging from the fact
that the first three furlongs were run,
from the start around the turn, in 37 sec
onds. It was not until the straight run
on the backstretch was reached that
Odom eaw h!s opportunity and took ad
vantage of it. Shrewd trainers declared
immediately after the race that It was
reduced to a sprint of six furlong?, with
»i« rmis four lengths in front of Irish I-id
iind the pace faster than at any other
period of the contest.
McChesney has fully recovered from his
ir.jury. and Trainer Taylor says he will
be ready to race within a few days.
Western turfmen are still sweet on the
chances of the big son of Macduff, and
rhould he go against the California crack.
Waterboy, and last year's king of the
Eastern turf. Hcrmis. the interest in the
rr.re will be unbounded.
SARATOGA, Aug. lS.-After the mighty
Hermis had won the Merchants' and Cit
izens* handicap at the Spa to-day his
owner. Millionaire E. R. Thomas, offered
to match the horse against any other
thoroughbred in America, at a mile and
a quarter, weight for age. This challenge
is directed especially against Waterboy
and MoCheFney. and the enthusiastic
young owner, whose long period of mis
fortune on the turf apparently has
reached the turning point, is not disposed
to place any limit on the amount to be
vi-a gored privately by the owners of the
animals in the special race, provided it
is arranged. Thomas' challenge hns
slirrcd interest In the project to decide
the championship of the American turf,
which got a black eye when the match
between McChesney and Waterboy fell
through because of the injury to the for
mer's hoof, due to stepping on a stone. It
is probable that efforts will be made to
bring Hermis. McChesney and Waterboy
tr.pother in a three-horse race, the
Jockey Club to put up a liberal purse.

half mile as at first supposed. .
The trotting track will be sixty feet

will be a track for athletes. Inside this
again will be the polo field, of which
much is expected. Stabling will, be pro
vided among the trees for the horses
between heats. f.'-\
When bidding Jeffries good-by yester
day Corbett said: "I'll-' be a big booster
for you In the East, Jim."
Jeffries is still undecided as to his
movements. Chalk . Roberts, John Brink
and other Los Angeles- friends of the
champion are" going south to-morrow and
he may accompany them. Colonel- Brady
may als6 be of the party! ,.
Harry Corbett, accompanied by his
brother Tom and some otheis, leave
shortly for a month's horseback trip
through Lake and other northern coun
ties.
From present appearances Benny Yan
ger will ' not 'be able ' to meet Hanlon here
next month. In this event an effort will
be made to have either Britt or | Herrera
take his place. There 'Is a; slight differ
ence In weight between Hanlon and Britt
which mav be reconciled. Herrera and
Hanlon are about "of the ' same weight.
Herrera has come up suddenly during the
past year. Six of his recent fights aver
aged only three rounds each.
• Jack Johnson, the. colored heavyweight,
is in town looking for -trouble in the
person of 'Jeffries.'. Should'the latter wipe"
out the color ¦ line Johnson will probably
be sorry he spoke." .<.'>:; .:.'.•
