THE DEFENDER WON

Tho Initial Race for tho Americas Cup
valkyrfe III. Lead ut the Start, But ON
the Return the British Challenger Failed
to Hold Her Own and the Yankee Flyer
Came In with q Good Lead.
NEW YORK, Sept. s.-All hail De-
fender. The aluminium and bronze
boat defeated Valkyrie III. minutes
40 seconds in the first of the races for
the Americas cup yesterday. Twenty
thousand people on the greatest 10
tilla that ever assembled off Sandy
Hook witnessed the race, and there
was scene of hilarious JOY when the
Defender crossed the line fully two
miles ahead of Lord Dunraven's boat.
The joy of the multitude was un-
doubtedly increased by the fact that
the Valkyrie led the Yankee boat for
the first hour. She walked away from
the Defender in a way that led En-
glishnen to fondly hope that their day
had come at last. Bright visions of
the Americas cup foated before their
eyes, while the patriotic Americans,
who were packed tier above tier on
the many decked excursion steamers,
were very glum.
There was only a fve-knot breeze at
the start, and Valkyrie was going
through the water faster than the De-
fender in the light air. There was a
lumpy sea on, and quite a swell came
in from the ocean, but the buffeting of
the waves against the Britisher's bow
did not keep her back. She outpointed
and outfooted the Herreshoff boat to
the amazement of the great crowd of
spectators. But after establishing a
lead of a good quarter of mile the
wind having freshened, the cup chal-
lenger failed to hold her own and the
Yankee yacht began to gain. When
the crowd saw it there was general
Frightening up. and as it became plain
that the product Of American brains
was picking up her rival, cheer went
up and tug boat whistles screeched.
AS both yachts were beating to wind
ward, it is impossible to say when the
Defender overhauled the British boat;
but it was about las p. m, when the
boats had covered nearly half of the
fifteen miles of windward work.
Once the Defender got her gait there
was no catching her, and as the wind
continued to freshen she opened up a
very large gap between her stern and
the bow of Lord Dunraven's boat.
When the Defender reached the outer
mark she had an advantage of three
minutes and twenty-seconds. There
was big demonstration as the Yam
kee boat made the turn.
The wind having shifted, the RUIZ
home became broad reach, and it was
of constant gain for the American
boat. Going home the gain was
minutes So seconds. With the time
allowance of 90 seconds, the Defenders
victory was minutes, 40 seconds. The
wind was ten knots at the finish.
Yesterdays race showed that VAL
kyrie III. moved like a ghost in wind
of less than six knots. and that she
seemed speedier than the Defender in
that wind. 1t 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 inter-
fered with by the attendant fleet, but
the patrol yachts kept fairly clear
course except at the start and finish.

WIND AND RAIN

Wreck the State Normal School at EN-
poria. Kan.-Other Damage Done.
EMPoRIA, Kan, Sept. "a severe
wind and rain storm passed over EN-
poria about o'clock yesterday after
noon, and did considerable damage, al
though, as far as can be learned, no
lives were lost.
The most damage was done at the
State Normal school, the new east
wing, which cost $50. 900 and was but
lately dedicated, being reduced to a
mass of ruins. The north gable end
was blown in and the roof rolled up
like paper and carried off half block.
The entire inside of Albert Taylor
hall was open to the storm of rain.
The damage is estimated at about
500
The wreck, however, will not inter-
fere with the school work, as fifty
rooms in the main building yet re-
main uninj ured. A special meeting of
the normal board of regents has been
called by wire for Tuesday at 2 p. m.
Considerable other damage was done
down town. Clark's wholesale furni-
ture store was partially unroofed and
his stock of goods more or less dam
aged. Easements and cellars through
out the city are flooded. Four inches
of water fell in less than two hours.
But meager reports have as yet been
received from the surrounding coun-
try, where it is feared the damage has
been great
At Hartford. twelve miles southeast
of here, several houses are reported
blown down and one woman, Miss
Bessie Henry, is dangerously injured.
