F09 and Lack of Wind Keeps
Yachts at Sandy Hook Again
Today-May Sail Later This
Attornoon
NEW YORK, May l7.-«Wealhcr con-
ditions early today were. much more
favorable for a start of the yachts in
the trans-Atlantic race than on yester-
day. Just before 8 o'clock the wind
was blowing eight knots an hour from
the northeast, the sky was cloudy anti
the air clear. At. that. time it. was
possible to clearly observe objects ten
miles away. Tile Sandy Hook Light.-
ahlp could be plainly soon froth the
Highlands of Navesing.
The thick blanket of fog which made
manoeuvering about the starting point
at Sandy Hook Lightship so hazardous
yesterday that. the committee in charge
postponed it, disappeared during the
night. The northeaster which brought
on the unfortunate conditions had sub-
sided to an eight-knot breeze. The
weather, however. still remained clou.
' \
yYesterdays early conditions which
were so favorably to the square riggers
of the fleet, were reversed today. The
prospects of a smart beat on the wind
or“ a close reach down the bong island
shore was quite to the liking of the
schooner not the fleet and especially
so to those on board the yawl Alisa.
which is considered the fastest of any
yachts on the wind. Preparations
therefore were begun this morning on
board all the yachts anchored in San-
dy Hook Bay for a day of windward
work. and one or two of the racers un.
shipped their i'ot'cyards which had been
rigged yesterday in anticipation of a
beam breeze and tho scitlug of lnrgc.
light stills.
The little bay protected by the san-
dy arm of the Hook, today prescnteti
an even livcllcr scene than ycatcl'duy.
Nearly all the yachts were anchored
there and the launches and small tugs
were scudding about almost from the
dawn of day. One or two of the yachts
were making sail by 8 o'clock. al-
though nearly all had nrruugcd to be
towed to the start. On board the
English ship Valhalla the small fore
and aft calls. upon which the vessel
relies for windward work, worc haul-
ed out and rigged. anti the name was
done on the American bark. Apache.
The northcantnr. although it blew
quite strong during the night, did not
leave much of a roll on the mic-tin. Tho
surf was fairly heavy on the Jersey
shore before the fishermen and coast-
ing schooncrs ran up front ihc south
and turned into Now York Bay with-
out. trouble. ,
When the committee postponed ycs.
terday's race it was planucd to start
the invent today as near noon as possi-
ble. with the preparatory gun at that
{hour and the actual starting gun fif-
teen minuics later. l'rcparntlons to
carry out this program were begun
early. the committee tug reaching San-
dy Hook at 8:30. tltroc and a half
hours before, the event was scheduled
to start. The tug at once started on
a tour among the yachts of the ilcci.
It seemed almost certain at that time
that there would be no postponement.
today. The wind blew up well and
the air continued fairly clear.
The only vessel missing in the fleet
in Sandy Hook Bay at l) o'c ock was
Lord Braeaey's Sunbeam. The other
ten were. anchored there, waiting the
arrival of steam craft to tow them to
the start. Steam yachts and one or
two excursion Atcamcrs also began to
arrive, and although three hours be-
fore the time set. for the start the lit.
tle bay was well filled.
The first of the fleet. to make sail
was the Millie schooner Flour do Lyn.
which began hoisting her mainaail at.
9215. Before the hull was up the
German Hamburg started out, of the
bay in‘ low of tug. preparations being
made to not her nails after getting out-
side the Hook. '
The stone on the Halls of the Atlantic
were taken off about the same time

and a tug ran alongside and set a tow-
line aboard the big threemaster. At
9:30 Lord Brusscy's Sunbeam was
sighted coming down the beam. also
in tow. The weather at that time still
continued favorable. the wind holding
from the northeast. and blowing six or
eight knots an hour. The air was also
quite clear anti there was no indication
of a return of yesterday's fog.
The Sunbeam passed. out by Sandy
[look at ‘10 o'clock, but just before
she reached that point the other Eng-
lish competitor. the ship Valhalla, the
largest vessel in the fleet, came out of
Sandy Hook Bay in tow and preceded
the Sunbeam out through the main
ship channel. At. 10:10 three of the
racers wore on the way be the start.
while the others were prefiaring to fol~
low immediately.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the commit
tee in charge of the race. hoisted the
signal “(ict ready for sea' and the Am.
crican yachts begun leaving the bay.
The first one to follow the Valhalla
and the Sunbeam out to the start was
Commodore Tod’s white schooner This-
tle. closely followed by the ynwl Ail-
sa. ’l‘ugs were alongside of several
other boats. Thistle anti Alli-lit passed
out to son at. 10:15. All the yachts

stranded (luronia and all were given
signals of “good luck" by the big Cu-
harder.
At. half past ten three more boats
passed otit, the Endymion. tho Atlantic
and the Flour do Lyn. Tito last unm-
ed bout was the only one‘ihal did not
have the services of a tug and at that
time it looked as if she would not, be
nblc to reach the start at the little s'ot
by the committee. The Apache got
away at 10:35 and the lilitlcgarde and
the lltownua started out after the
Apache at 10:40.- The entire fleet. then
was on the way to be starting liuc
at the Sandy Hook bightship. At that
tithe the weather began to thickcu up
again and it looked as if there might
be a return of yestci‘dny‘s log. (lbs-tor-
vnucc front shore was cut down to a
matter of six or right miles so that it
'as hard to distinguish the Hamburg,
which was nearing the lightship. The
wind hold true and still blcw about
scvcn knots.
At ll o'clock the fog begun to thick-
cn and the lightshlp froth which the
start was to be made could not be
soon from shore. .
Fifteen minutes bcforo thc tlmc sci
for the start the weather off shore
was thickening rapidly. The wind
had haulcd more. to the eastward anti
dropped to about five knots. It did
not set-m to timer on shot-c as if thc
mist was dcnse cnough to cause an-
other postponement. as a good obliter—
vution could be obtuinctl for two or
ihrcc milcs‘from the bunch. There
was cvcry indication, thcrefore. at
that timc that the committee would
be able to scnd the yachts away to-
iltiy on their long voyage without
further delay.
At 122l5_ the time arranged for the
sending the yachts across the line.
the wind on shore had hauled to about
lhc shine quarter as ycslcrduy and had
brought bark with it the great masses
of fog which had caused yesterday‘s
postponement. The wind was south
of cast and the fog was rolling onto
the Jersey shore in great thick banks
which cut off all View of the ocean.
An hour after the time set for the
start the wind was from the east. al-
though it frequently shifted a few
points north or south of that. direc-
tion. The fog at times clcarcd away
only to return again. At i:15 o'clock
the wind was blowing about five knots
an hour.
AGAINST FRIDAY SESSIONS.
Farmers’ Association Discuss“ the
Matter Again Today.
HARTFORD, May l7.«'i‘he matter
of Friday sessions was again discussed
at a meeting of tho it‘nrmcru‘ Associa-
tion. of the‘lcgislature. this morning.
A majority of the sentiment. expressed
was opposed to holding them on the
grounds that pernicious measures
might be pushed through‘in the ab-
sence of some members. The asso
clatlon appointed a commltlec of three
members to appear before the commit-
tee on education this afternoon in on-
position to the bill which repeats the
law providing for transportation of pit-
pila to high schools at which time it
will be accorded a public hearing.
The Senate unanimously adopted
this morning the resolution on the
death of Senator Plait. in concurrence
with the action taken by the House
yesterday.
Concurrent action was also taken in
rejecting the bill which required the
removal of screens from saloons.
Senator Donovan, of Norwalk. ob-
jected to‘the bill which increases the
salary of the reporter of judicial decla-
lonii from 34.000 to 38.000' annually.
The. bill received favorpbleactlon in
the house some‘ week: ago and was
tabled in the Senate. it was called up
Senator Paige. who moved its passage.
flutter Donovan. held thttt it was
unreasonable to give a higher salary
to a court re orter than the state's
senators and proacnutives at Warm
lugto’n received. He further contend-
ed that the reporter‘s duties could not
be (morons when he drew in the neigt-
the statutes. There seemed to be no
limits to the demands. he mitt, of the
legal fraternity. The state was going

Judiciary Committee, wan called from
the table supported by Representatives
Clark and Hallock of Derby and
Thompson, of Orange. who contended
that the only argument advanced by
the opponents of Judge Clark was that
he was not an attorney. .Hia eight
years" experience in the court, they ar-
gued should have amply qualified him
for the office. Representative Clark
said be appealed to the House not to
override the conultutional rights of
the people of Derby. .
Representative Thompson referred
to the Branford ,jhdgeshlp and quea-
tioned the action 0 . the legislature in
removing an emlu'tihiy'able man from
the court. “ ‘ .
Representative Kenealy.-honse chair-
man of the judiciary committee, re‘
plied with a forceful argument in be:
half of the actions of his associates in
the matter of contented judgeships. He
said that prior to the present session
when there had been a content. it had
been customary to hold a county cau-
cus. The Republican members had.‘
at those times. passed upon the quit iii-I
cations of various candidates until the
matter had become a public scandal.
He then gave some of the reasons for
the conuntttee's report in the matter
of both the Branford and Derby judge
ships. '
Representative Clark. of Hartford, of
the judiciary committee. also spoke in
support of the committee's report.
A rising vote resulted In the rejec-
tion of the committee‘s report b 136

The bill that would establish a run
few law in Connecticut was rejected
on an adverse report of the committce
on public health and safety. Repre-
sentative Allen of East. Windsor ex.
plained that the committee felt that
such matters should be regulated by
local ordinances.

bill with the exception of scctions re-
lating to the use of proxies and con-
cerning consolidation agreements. The
bill. be said. would permit the organ-
izatlon of street railway companies
without special charters. This would
remove competition and while at first
blush he had not been in favor of
this feature, he had changed his opin-
ion. Hc then went on to say that in
his section the Consolidated road had
not been a paying institution lmlll
it had secured the Ontario and Wet-ii-
ern road. ..ie New York Central, he
avcrrcd, did not intend to build. its
survey was made simply as a menace
to President Mellon. He thought the
legislature should pass the bill.
The bill was passed by a rising vote
of 122 to 58.
