THE SHAMROCK II ASPARLESS WRECK. Lipton’s Beautiful Challenger Is Caught in a Squall. KING WAS ON BOARD. Southampton, May 2 dramatic incident in the the America’s cup when a sudden squall on the Solent completely wrecked the challenger and endangered the life of King Ed- ward and several other distinguished persons, including Sir Thon Lip- ton. The results of this disaster, which could scarcely without loss of life, can best be judged by the written statement made late to-night by Sir Thomas Lipton to sentative of the Asseciated press, as EDWARD ~The most history of oceurred to-di recur great a repre- follows “My accident prevents me from toeing the mark at the appointed hour, and eompels me to ask the New York Yacht club to grant me an extension of time. If they will be good enough to do that I shall race, even if I have to build a boat between now and the date agreed upon. I still believe the Shamrock II a boat worthy to be the challenger, and that when this unfortunate chapter of accidents comes to anend she will stand a good chance of lifting thecup.

The story of the catastrophe is best told by Sir Thomas Lipton himself. Af- ter seeing his royal guest off to Lon- don, Sir Thomas gave the following interview toa representative of the associated press: “We had just begun to make for the starting line when a fierce breeze sprang up. King Edward, Lady Londonderry, Mrs. Jameson, Mr. Watson, Mr. Jameson and myself were on deck, hanging on as best we might, for the challenger was almost at an angle of forty-five degrees. The king started to go below. Just as he did so everything collapsed. A heavy block fell between the two la- dies and a wire rope struck me on the head and momentarily stunned me. Asudden squall, an unexpected strain and everything had given away. King Edward was half in and half out of the companion hatchway. What happened, how all the falling spars and sweeping sails did not kill or sweep someone overboard is more than I know. When I te, I saw the king clamoring over the wreckage, trying to discover the ex- tent of the damage, and asking: ‘Is anyone hurt?’ The reporter of the associated press further learned that Sir Thomas’ first utterance, on com- ing to, was this ardent adjuration to Mr. Watson: “Telegraph for have got to sail on Aug. 1 boat has got to do it.” GORMAN FOR § came more SDE We 2,and this NATOR.
