VIOLENT GAINS

Queenstown, Dec 22.-The Cunard
steamship Lucania left the Mersey at ii
o'clock this morning and had still not ar
rived at midnight. 1t is surmised that
the captain will not risk bringing his yes
sci into harbor during the tempest.
There is violent gale blowing off the
Irish coast, and several small craft have
been swamped. 1t was owing to the
dense fog that the Lucania was detained
Ill the Mersey, and her mails awaited her
at Queenstown the whole day.

Stared Hard as Defender Ran
 Away From the Vigilant.
NEW BOAT FIRST BY ls MINUTES.

The Syndicate Yacht Proved Her Superb ority In All Kinds of Winds and Carried a Club Topsail In a Forty Knot Breeze, When vigiIant Used Lower Sails.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 3O.-Defender defeat Dl Vigilant in race over 8 triangular Iourse of 24 miles, eight miles to the leg, outside of Sandy Hook, by IS minutes seconds.
 There were all kinds of weather. A fair breeze of eight knots an hour was blowing at the start. A calm followed. A small breeze of three or four miles next appear ed. Then there was a whif of about five miles, but the most important conditions prevailed on the last leg, when a squall came up from south during which, for period of 20 minutes, it blew 40 miles an hour.
 Vigilant was compelled to take in her club topsail and sailed for half an hour without any canvas above her mainsail. Defender stood the test, which was the first of the kind she had ever been out in, without removing rag until the sheet of her staysail was carried away, and the sail was torn into shreds by the gale. It was quickly replaced, however, despite the blow.
 Defenders most ardent champions were surprised at the way that boat stood up under the blow. She did have to Huff up twice, but the general result was more than satisfactory. The ship stood up as a good ship should, heeling so little that her weather qualities were well proved. On all points of sailing, reaching, close hauled and before the wind Defender gained on her game opponent.

MILLER SEES HARRISON.
The Ex-President Has Just Killed His
 First Deer.

The Ex-President Has Just Killed His
 First Deer.
 OLD FORGE, N. Y, Aug. 3O.-Benje- min Harrison and Warner Miller met and held an hours conversation in Dodd' S camp which is the generals resting place for the summer Both gentlemen said that the visit had no political significance whatever, and that no reference was made to politics during the visit. The fact that he shot a deer Wednesday night had the effect of placing the cx-prcsident in u cheerful franc of mind, and when MT. Miller called he found him in splendid spirits.
 General Harrison and his guide Frank Sperry, went floating, and the general killed his first deer, a largo dry doe, Gen eral Harrison's deer floating trip was one of the quickest made in these mountains in a long time-in fact, some of the oldest guides in the woods say the general estab- liShcd record.
 When Harrison's boat ncared East marsh, a mile from First lake, Sperry sighted deer. It was in the bullrushes and was slowing making its way along in the direction of the boat.
