In the third race Valkyrie 111 crossed the starting line, but Immediately abandoned the race. Lord Dunraven stated that the reason he quit the race was the failure ef the New York Yacht club to comply wtth his request for a guaranteed clear course so that a foul such as occurred in the second race could be avoided. Defender tailed over the course alone and so wtn all three contests. Lord Dunraven accused ths New York club and the manager of the Defender of trickery. Thla charge was Investigated and disproved, and Valkyrie's owner ceased to be a guest of American yachtsmen. Sir Thomas Llpton made his Initial effort to "lift the Americas cup In the fall of 1899 with Shamrock.
