arrived in port yesterday after an eXcit-
ing race.
The four-masted British ship Falls of
Clyde left London and the three-masted
British ship Merioneth left Swansea for
San Francisco within five days of each
other. On July they were in company,
and from that time until they met off the
Golden Gate they have been playing at
hide and seek. First one and then the
other ship would get the breeze, draw
ahead and disappear for a couple of
weeks or month, only to find themselves
together again with the first last and vice
versa
The two vessels were nearly a month
out before they met, and parted after
exchanging signals. AS the Merioneth
holds the record for the run between
I'VE days ahead OF the Fails OF clyde,
Captain Rowland naturally expected to
reach San Francisco first, and signaled
Captain Anderson that he would report
him on arrival. Anderson signaled back,

four-master by five days from England
but from the time they first met on the
glorious Fourth, and when the race really
began, it was nip and tuck the whole
way. Probably never on old ocean has
there been longer and closer race and
more exciting finish.
