Napkin Run Up.
The wind was about equal on the
sails and the Vallyrie could not inn
prove her position. on the contrary she
rather dropped off. The Vigilant went
on again and did not stop in that pro-
cess to the end OF the outward journey
The American boat made her turn Of

thusiasm.
AS she rounded the Vigllants man

II ran UP a piece Of canvass that looked
like a napkin in comparison with the
other tremendous spread that had been
seen. The wind was now about west,
perhaps half point to the south, and
instead Of a beat home, as all hands had
relied upon, il became question Of a
long reach with perhaps tack or two
toward the finish to find the home line.
It was on the reach that the cutter was
supposed to be at the best. The reach
lasted after the Valkyrle had made her
turn and both boats were heading for
home, about one mile. During that
reach, with all things equal i'm the way
of wind, the Vigilant actually gained
on the cutter. Then there was another
shift in the wind and the boats were
both compelled to haul sheets aft as far
as possible and sail closely by the wind.
Up to the end of the course there
was no incident to be recorded further
than those that have been mentioned.
The Vigilant crossed the line on the

If It were possible, to judge from the
movements of the boats today, a con-
clusion might be drawn from the spank
ing on the water that the Nigilant per-
formed while the Valkyrie cut through
the seas instead of going up on top Of
them and coming down with fiat pad

that theory Is correct.

AS soon as the Vlgilant and Valkyrie
had dropped anchor at Bay Ridge an
Associated Press reporter visited them.
Capt. Cranfield said he was very much
disappointed at the result of the race
and would say nothing more about it.
The reporter next visited the Vigilant,
where were Mr.. c. Oliver Islen, owner,
and Mr.. Nathaniel Herreshoff, her de-
signer.
Mr.. Islen said: at do not consider this
race today as being really test race,
