ENGLISH BOATS RETURN HOME Many Motor Boats and Yachts Put In at Northport Some From Brooklyn. Huntington, L. August 8 All the own, and more especially the Chateau des Beaux Arts, i3 fairly buzzing with gossip of tbf recent big motor boat race, and the victory of the American boat, Dixie II, is a very popular one. All recor-ls were broken, thus making the Chateau des Beaux Arts courso the fastest in the world. Nool M.

Robbins, who piloted the "Woldeloy-Siddeluy, was enthusiastic over the race. He said that conditions for tho race were perfect, and he ia so delighted with the reception tendered him by the Americana that he would like to come back to regain the cup. Dr. Alfred G. Ftntiman, who had charge of the Daimler Jl, says: "This course Is undoubtedly the fastest In the ftorld.

There fs nothing in England to even approach it." Tuesday afternoon the two EnfrHfth boats left their moorings off the Chatc-au fnr New York by thflr own power. The WolseJy was pilnttitl by Mi. Belling and the Daimler JI by Andre Ureptanoby. As soon as they reached the cliy they were put in their cradles at tho Atlantic Transport djeks to gj on board tho steamship Minneionka. The O.

owned by Commodore Charles Klein, the playwright who wrote the "Music fclaster, was selected as a course-clearer and carried a revenue officer on board during the race. Ketchican II, owned by Air. Kamp, was also a ctmrse-ctearer. Last Saturday. Sunday and Monday the Chateau entertained the largest crowd in Its history.

A great many large parties came to view the rup race, for a view of tho entire ccurse could be had from the terraces of the oaflnu. The Wolseley-Siddleley and the Daimler II W(re the first boats to fly the white ensign of the Koyal Yacht squadron in Long Island Sound. IT, owned by Vice Commodore Foss, lost Its propeller key while acting as stako beat during the race, and put into Huntington harbor for repairs. Taptain Pierce, who was overcome bv fumes from the exhaust of the Dixie, was revived by doctors, and left the Chateau Tuesday none the worse for his experience. Despite the breaking of the starboard engine of the Daimler II when five miles out in the Sound, the nerve of Helmsman Fentimttn was very little affected, for although tho engine was terribly smashed and tho boat in danger of being lost, his reply to anxious inquiries as he came ashore was, "oh, we smashed a little machinery up a bit." The won among the motor boats which entered Huntington Uay to see the race.

The boat sailed out of the bay at twonty-flve miles an hour after giving a wonderful exhibition of speed. The Dixie II seems particularly fitted fnr adventure. Saturday afternoon, while at the Chateau pier, she loosened some planking and began to leBk badly. An unknown swimmer held the planks in place while the boat was turned tnwnrd a quiet lagoon. It was a very dangerous exploit, for the swimmer was beliit; carried alom? at a speed of twelve nilN'S an hour while he was holding on to the rudder with one hand and the planking with the other.
