THE PURITAN SAILS IN FIRST.
Craft shows Her Heels To All Her
Rivals:
MARBLEHEAD, Mass, June 29.-The great
and much anticipated regatta of the Eastern
club was sailed to-day and victory once more
rested with the Puritan, the Priscilla being
close second and the Mayfower third. The
day was perfect; not a cloud obscured the
SKY and a good ten knot breeze blew from
the west. Many thousands of visitors were
here to witness the contest. The race was
twice around fifteen mile triangle off Mar
blehead rock, five miles to a leg. At 1907
o'clock the start was made, the Priscilla
crossing the line first at 1908, the Fortuna
second. The Puritan close behind took the
wrong course, was sent back and recrossed
the line at 12:111s, followed by the Mayfow
er at 1912 Shortly after passing the line
the Mayfower almost careening had to take
in sail, as she was unable to stand up
under the tremendous spread of canvas,
and for several seconds many feared that she
would capsize. At 1916 o'clock the second
class boats crossed the line. The Puri-
tan lost one and half and the Mayfower
two minutes by not getting over the line.
The Priscilla forged ahead and led the others
by half mile, but the wind soon began to
freshen and the Puritan and Mayfower
gained on New Yorks favorite. The yachts
turned the first stakeboat as follows: Gitana
1855, Priscilla 1861 Fortuna 1887,
Mayhower 1910, Puritan 12:4015. The Pu-
ritan and the Mayfower continued to gain
cv,4 ha Tho cho
great speed and rapidly walked away from
the Puritan. Half way between the first
and second stakeboats, between seven
and eight miles from the start, the Gitana
was an eighth of a mile ahead of the Priscil-
la, which led the Fortuna by about the
same distance. The Mayfowe1 was still
doing good work mile off.
She had drawn to the windward of
the Puritan and was leading her by about
twenty rods. Both the Puritan and May
flower were to windward of the leading boats.
The six leaders passed the second mark boat
in the following order: Gitana 1:03:5; Pris-
ella 1:O4:5O; Fortuna LOS; Mohican los;
Mayaower 1:09:15; Puritan 1:0S:15. Cheers
and steam whistles greeted the yachts as
the passed the mark.
At 1:15 the leading boats came about with
starboard tacks aboard. They started away
at fast pace on the last leg of the first TRAN
gle and the Puritan made splendid work The
her competitors and when she tackled she
was only short distance ahead in running.
Before q mile had been sailed the Puritan
walked away from them all. The yachts
were then sailing close to the wind. The
Puritans work was wonderful. She had
reached the MayAower, went to weather of
her and began work on the Priscilla. When
the boats came about and headed for the stake
at the starting point it was evident that there
was to be great race to the finish The
Priscilla was to the windward, but the Puri-
tan was flying at such clip that before the
Priscilla had squared away and got her speed
the Puritan had outsailed her to leeward and
gone into the lead amid the cheers and shouts
of joy on all sides. The yachts rounded the
home stake boat with one-half the race COM
pleted as follows: Puritan 1886,
Priscilla 1:54:54, Mayfower 1857.
The Puritan now began to outrun all hands
before the wind and the balance of the race
was procession. The Puritan crossed the
finish line at 3:34:50 the Priscilla at 3:37:5O,
and the Mayhowerr at $3.50. Had the Puri-
tan and Mayfower been prompter in getting
under way the Puritan would have beaten
the great New York sloop by over eight min
utes and the Mayhower would have beaten
her by minute and occupied the. second
place at the finish.
FOUND GUILTY OF BOYCOTTING.
Another Of the Carl Sahm Club Sue
cumbs to the Majesty of the Law.
NEW YORK, June 29.-The trial of Hol-
dorf, the boycotter of Thesis, was resumed
to-day Charles Eschert testified that the
boycotters demanded that the old orchestra
should be discharged and that members of
the Carl Sahm club should be put in their
Thesis should pay 81, 900 and threatened I'M
less he did SO to break up the business. The
defendant was the first witness called for the
defense. He said that the trouble arose be-
cause Eschert, the leader, said he would dis
charge all members of the Carl Sahm club
from the orchestra. He denied making
threats against Thesis and that he or any
other boycotter set fire to Thesis place. At
ter hearing several witnesses for the defense
and listening to arguments the jury retired
and after being out twenty minutes returned
with verdict of guilty. Sentence was de-
ferred until Thursday. The trials of the
other indicted boycotters of Mr.. Thesis will
probably follow speedily.
