New York Herald. July ssndl
There is much rejoicing among the friends
of the Cunard line because Of the victory oil
the Oregon over the Arizona and the Austral
on their voyage from Queenstown to New
York which terminated yesterday. The three
steamships left Queenstown within six hours
of each other op the morning Of Sunday, the
18th, and although nothing has been said
openly at the Offices Of the respective com
panies in this city yet the fact has been we'll
known by every one interested in matters per-
tanning TO the ocean ferry" that there would
be desperate struggle for the lead between
the three steamers. The Auslral was the
first ore TO leave Queenstown, passing R9che's
Point at 535 am. on the 18th. She was fol-
lowed by the Arizona at $50 and by the
Oregon at $50 pm. At , O'Clock on the af-
ternoon Of the 18th the Austral was passed by
the Arizona and at O'Clock the next day
she was overtaken by the Oregon, which left
her hull down before nightfall. The Arizona
and Oregon did not sight each other during
the voyage. The Oregon arrived at Sandy
Hook at. $50 an. yesterday. The Arizona
reached the Hook at 1850 pm. the same day,
over 10 hours behind her victorious rival,
which made the remarkable time Of days, Is
hours and % minutes, corrected time. The
time Of the Arizona was days, hours and
u minutes, which beats her best previous re-
cord by hour and Is minutes.
The days run Of the Oregon are as fol-
lows:-sis miles on her first day; 40 on the
