Britannia Now Leads Her Rival.
BIZ The Associated Press.


ROCKIES POINT, Queenstown Harbor,
July 23.-The race for the 90 guineas cup
offered by the Royal Munster Yacht Club
as q prize in their regatta brought the
Vigilant and the Britannia into aquatic
contest today. The yachts arrived from
Kingstown about s o'clock q. M in tow of
the Atlanta. A fresh northwest wind
gave promise OF an exciting contest. Ihe
course today Is in the main out at sea,
although TOR the finish the yachts
have to sail into and through the
harbor. The start is from an imaginary
line drawn between the commodore flag
ship and q flag boat anchored off Roches
Point. From there five and one-half
miles to and around a flag boat of Poor
Head; thence five and a half miles TO
and round Daunt's Rock lights
ship; from there back to
the harbor, four and three-quarters
miles and finishing off the Royal Munster
Yacht Club House, two miles, or one mile
respectively, from the starting line. The
first two rounds are sailed around Poor
Head, Daunts Rock Lightship and Roches
Point, only the third or last round taking
the yachts into the harbor and up the
river to the finish, which extra leg about
completes the fifty miles.
During the night and morning there
had bean a great influx OF visitors into
Queenstown and a fleet OF special trains
tool a company of sight seers TO Roches
Point, across Haven, Poor head and other
points, from which a good view of the
race could be obtained. A large fleet of
steam and sailing yachts also gathered in
Queenstown Harbor in anticipation OF a
day of b~racing struggle for aquatic honors.
During the early hours of the day, every
thing pointed to n fine race and the
weather in which the Vigilant was ex-
pected to have a fine chance to show her
powers. The sympathy of the crowd was
distinctly with the American yacht, and
on all sides were heard expressed hearty
hopes that she might win the cup. There
were the usual pretty and intricate ma
neuvers for position preparatory TO the
start and Britannia had the better OF it, for
she took the weather position upon cross
ing the line, although both yachts were
about level.
Britannia Got the Start.
The yachts started as follows:
