REPLY PUZZLES SWEDES.
Consider New York Yacht Club's Answer, but Postpone Action.
Stockholm, Oct. 13. -- The Royal Swedish Yacht club met yesterday to discuss the reply of the New York Yacht club to its inquiry as to the conditions under which a challenge for America's cup would be considered.
After a long debate, in which it was emphasized that the New York club had not given a clear reply to the questions whether the length of the competing vessels could be fixed at seventy feet, it was agreed to await settlement of this point. A further meeting has been fixed for Oct. 21.
