the sport was thoroughly enjoyed. 1t was
favoritea' day, MoDouel and Cricket taking
first money in their CLASSES, as was expected.

NEWPORT, R. l., Aug. IA heavy thun-
der. wind and rain storm that visited this
city this morning was succeeded by fiat
calm, threatening the postponement of the
Goelet CUP race, and 1t was not until five
bells that the Electra left her anchorage. hav-
ing previously singslled the race. The wind
strengthened gradually until, as the Electra
neared the starting line at Brenton's reef
lightship, the conditions seemed favorable
for start, with the tide more than half
ebbed and the wind about northeast. The
Sow and Pigs course was selected, and the
Electra reached the starting line at six bells.
Soon after the start was signalled the first
boat to cross the line was the Clara. The
preparatory gun was fred at 11:32
and the starting signal at 11:42. The Clara
Puritan, closely followed by Oracle aud Kat
rina. Gossoon was next, about three min
utes behind the leader, and Cinderella went
across some time after the handicap gun.
The Marguerite was the first schooner to
CROSS, with Ozone, Mayfower and Palmer
and sloops Dare, Sea Fox and Merlin close
together. The run to Vineyard Sound light
ship was uneventful, save that 1t foreshad-
owed the drubbing which the Clara was to
receive at the hands of the little Gossoon,
and awoke the vain hope that the Thayer
boys might keep within her time allowance
and win the Goelet cup. Katrina was down.
ing the Oracle, while the Merlin led the
schooners, with Mayfower and Marguerite
behind, but outpointing the Merlin and the
other schooners. The Narguerites advan-
tage, however, did not bring her among the
nine leaders. The leading boats rounded
Vineyard Sound ightship-seventeen miles
out-as follows:
Volunteer 2:2O:4O, Puritan 2:34:42, Kat
rina 2:52:O5, Gossoon 3O6:20, Merlin 3:07:30,
Mayfower 3:09:55, Oracle 3:15:15, Sea Fox
3:17:2O.
The short run of Eve miles across Hen and
Chickens lightship did not alter the posi-
tions of the vessels very much. The three
rounded In this order:
Volunteer 2:51, Puritan 800, Katrina
3:24:30. On the last leg the Brenton's Reef
and spinnakers, but there was no race from
that out. 1t was simply . Volunteer pro-
cession and the grand old cup de-
fender increased her already good lead
on the last fifteen miles, winning the
Goelet cup in her old time form. The
Merlin and May flower are both In finer shape
than last year, but the same cannot be said
Of the Sea Fox under her new ownership and
handling. The Marguerite seems, from her
sho wing In this race, to have hardly been
bettered by her alterations, but she may
meet her friends' expectations later. The
Merlin's success was fairly earned, and che
deserves the handsome 81 900 trophy which
will decorate her owners sideboard this win
ter. Summarize follow:
