NO GREAT CHANCE TO WIN.
Times of the Two Yachts show Little
for the Challenger.

Cowes, Isle of Wight July 1S.-On the
actual difference in the times of the
Shamrock and Britannia al the various
points and the times at the finish of to-
days race. it does not appear that the
Shamrock has a great chance OF winning
the Americas cup.
These signs, however. may be deceptive.
1t was the opinion of those who closely
watched the race from the steamer fol-
lowing the yachts that the Shamrock was
never pushed TO her utmost in to-days
trial, and that Mr. Fife the designer of
the yacht who practically engineered the
contest on behalf of Sir Thomas Upton,
merely designed to ascertain whether the
Shamrock could show the Britannia
clean pair of heels. He had no desire
however 10 let any one into the secret
of the actual merits or best speed of the
challenger.
Confirmation of the foregoing opinion is
found in the fact that while the Britannia
carried every possible stitch of canvas,
The Shamrock was running before the
wind from Nab lightship TO the Solent
bank buoy, and only had her jiD headed
with the topsan instead Of the club top
sail. like the Britannia, and that on the
broad reach home from the Solent buoy
the Shamrock lowered her tib topsau,
which would have been Of material assist
ance had her shippers really wished to
show her at her best
The Shamrock IS decidedly the fastest
boat ever launched in these waters. No
other craft ever gave the Britannia such
a beating on a fair sailing trial. There was
considerable manoeuVering Of the yachts
before the start and the opinion was free
ly expressed that the Shamrock did not ap-
pear to be so well handled as the Britannia
which was In the hands Of the veteran
Carter, who skippered her successfully
against the Vigiiant in 1884. The Britain
MIA was sailed beautifully and excited gem
eral admiration amongst the immense
crowds Of people who witnessed the re-
turn of the boats from every point OF van
tage.

Its various lines after dark last evening,

over the several lines, but the time sehe-

stock In operation would be about 60 per
cent. No cars We're run over the Flat

During the day the police made several
arrests of persons who nterfered with the
progress Of the cars on the Nassau lines,
