extent. AS the yachts moved along some
of the fotilla grew bolder and bolder, and
came closer and closer to the racers until
shamed off by the shouts from other crafts
of the feet.
The steamboat John Sylvester was
notably one of the offenders and paid
absolutely no attention to the shouts of
warning from the committee boat. The
Sylvester passed dangerously near to the
stern of the sloops just after the start and
sent big wash into their water.
1t was an interesting journey down to
the stakeboat. Bands played, happy ex-
cursionists sang and rent the air with
yells for the Defender. At the turn the
feet steamed ahead and stood by for the
yachts to round. AS the Defender went
around with her big balloon jib flying to
the wind a mighty salute was sent forth and
kept up for several minutes. The feet
joined the sloops in the reach for home.
They divided their attention between the
racers, and were spread out for a mile.
They were to the leeward of the yachts,
and consequently did not bother them so
much as they Gid to the beat to the first
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-09-08

NEW YORK, N. Y, Sept. All hail
the Defender! The aluminium and bronze
boat defeated the Valkyrie III eight min
utes and forty-nine seconds in the first of
the races for the America cup to-day.
Twenty thousand people on the greatest
f1otlIla that ever assembled off Sandy
Hook witnessed the race, and there was a
scene OF hilarious Joy when the Defender
crossed the line fully two miles ahead of
Lord Dunrayen's boat.
The Joy of the multitude was undoubt-
edIy increased by the fact that the Valky-
RE led the Yankee boat for the first hour.
She walked away from the defender in a
way that led EngIishmen to fondly hope
that their day had come at last Bright
visions of the America cup foated before
their eyes, while the patriotic Americans,
who were packed tier above tier on the
many-deeked excursion steamers, were
very glum.
A hush fell over the marine amphi-
theater when the boats started, and all
the joys of yachting seemed gone when
the Valkyrie easily moved to the front and
showed her heels to the Defender. Cheers
and enthusiasm were missing for a full
hour when the British boat was leading.

now and then narrowly escaping serious
collision. The action of some of the
fotilla was shameful, to say the least.
Their selfish endeav ors to hug the starting
line to the detriment of both yachts was
deplorable and un-American.
The movement of the big fotilla when
the change of course was made was an i'm
pressive scene. The first known of the
change OF course was when the judges
boat took up her anchor and headed with
the two racers toward the Jersey shore.
In few minutes the fleet was headed in
the same direction, and as it moved
along stretched out in long
line, calculated over two miles in
length. After the yachts started the
fleet gave chase, and owing to the light
wind the slowest craft was able to keep
abreast of the racing sloops. There were
crafts fore and aft, to the port and to star
board, and the wash interfered with the
progress of both boats to more or less

There was only a fve-knot breeze at the
start, and, as predicted in these dis
patches, the Valkyrie was going through
the water faster than the Defender in the
light air. There was lumpy sea on and
quite a swell came in from the ocean, but
the buffeting of the waves against the
Britisher's boat did not keep her back.
She outpointed and outfooted the Heres
hoff boat to the amazement of the great
crowd of spectators.
But after establishing lead of good
quarter Of mile, the wind having fresh
ened, the cup challenger failed to hold her
own and the Yankee yacht began to gain.
When the crowd saw it there was gen.

a AS both yachts were beating to wind
ward, it is impossible to say just when the
Defender overhauIed the British boat, but
it was about LIS P. NJ. when the boats had
covered nearly half of the 15 miles of wind
ward work. Once the Defender got her
gait there was no catching her, and, as the
wind continued to freshen, she opened up
very large gap between her stern and the
bow of Lord nunraven's boat.
When the Defender reached the outer
mark she had an advantage of three min
utes and twenty-seven seconds. There
was big demonstration as the Yankee
boat made the turn. The wind having
shifted the run home became a broad
reach and it was constant gain for the
gallant American boat. Going home the
gain was four minutes and fifty three
seconds
With the time allowance of twenty-nine
seconds, the Defenders victory was eight
minutes forty-nine seconds. The wind
was ten knots at the finish. The days
race showed that the Valkyrie III moved
like a ghost in a wind of less than six
knots. and that she seemed speedier than
the Defender in that wind. It also showed
that with a wind of from eight to ten
knots in both windward work and broad
reaching the English boat could not keep
the pace set by the Defender. Both
yachts were somewhat interfered with by
the attendant feet, but the patrol yachts
kept fairly clear course except at the
start and finish.
The outlook early this morning for ideal
racing weather was not at all encouraging

made up their minds to witness the first OF

breeze, the dread of the iandlubber, the

and set without a wrinkle. Both yachts
kept their tows to Sandy Hook lightship.
They arrived there at 10:40. Their tenders
followed them out in case any changes in
sails or spars should be decided upon.
The wind at 10:45 was from the northeast,
ana the regatta committee decided to
change the starting point, as mile course
to windward would strike the Long Island
shore about Long Beach. Signals were
sent up and the committee boat started
south toward the Jersey shore.
The yachts followed in tow of their tugs.
The fleet of steam yachts made a race for
the new starting point and the excursion
feet followed.
The gathering of the immense fotilla
about the starting line was one of the most
animated and magnificent marine spec
tacles of its kind ever witnessed in these
waters. Every available craft had
been pressed into service. There
were tugs almost too numerous to

large coasting vessels and sloops and
schooners and yachts of all classes. The
most impressive of all the fleet was the
steam yacht Division. Such a gathering
never before was witnessed in American
waters There were over thirty of the
finest and fastest steam yachts afoat,
and their spick and span appearance
lent much charm to the days scene.
When the fotilla first approached
the Sandy Hook lightship they
were spread out over distance of two
miles. The delay at the start allowed
time for all the belated craft to come up,

exclusive to mingle with the promiscuous
