COMMENT ON YESTERDAYS RACE.
British Newspapers Take COiumbia's
Victory PhilOsophicnIiy.

EDINBURGH, October 1.-THE Scots
man, referring to yesterdays race for the
Americas cup, says:
so far as the race proved anything, it
seems to show that, with a wind like yes
terday's, in the running there is not much
to choose between the two boats; but in
working to the windward the Columbia can
keep away from the Shamrock, a conclu-
sion which upsets the preconceived notions.
But the Shamrock has at least two
chances more; and it is to be hoped that
today she will give a better account of her
self. \ race lost is better than no race at
all. The defeat should be taken with good
grace
GLASGOW, October 1.-THE Glasgow
Herald says:
The result of the yacht race is discourage
ing The Shamrock failed to realize British
expectations Before five miles had been
covered. the Columbia shook herself clear
and kept the lead. Possibly the Columbia
captain, in the previous abortive races. may
have held her back, playing while his oppo-
nent pushed. Certainly the Columbia prov
ed herself yesterday the better boat
The Glasgow Mail says:
The result is a sad disappointment and
the cup is receding from our gaze. The
Columbia won fairly and sQuarely.'
The Glasgow Record says:
The wind at Sandy Hook has blown at
last and. cruelty enough, has blown the
Columbia home first. The Shamrock's I'M
lucky day may revive a waning interest.
There is yet no reason to despair.
Hope Left at Belfast.
BELFAST, October 1T.-The Northern
Wing says:
The Shamrock has yet plenty of time to
show that she is far the faster of the two
boats under ordinary conditions. She flies
the nag of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club,
and may all confidently hope that this
| flag under favorable auspices, will soon be
seen in front"
The Belfast Newsletter says:
THE first race has come off at last. It
was the eighth attempt. People were al
most beginning to wonder If there were
going TO be any real races at all. There
will be much disappointment throughout
the united Kingdom on account of the fact
that the Columbia won. Naturally the
Americans are much elated at the result.
We can only hope that the Shamrock will
do better today
The Belfast Wind says:
The victory of the Columbia is a triumph
of skill on the part of her sailing master,
proving that, however superior the design
of the Shamrock, she Will need TO be ham
died skinfully as the Columbia, If she is
TO win The conditions yesterday do not
lead to the superstition that her rival could
beat her If the wind were heavy; but, even
in this case, we would cheerfully yield the
palm to the American yacht"

STORY OFF THE ACCIDENT.
Sir Thomas Upton Hears 1t From
Capt. HOgarth.

WESTERN UNION CABLE BOAT. by
Associated Press dispatch boat Wanda, DC
tober II. 1922 p.m.-When the Associated
Press flagship Wanda ran alongside of the
Shamrock the sailors had brought the top
mast and sail to deck and We're busy re-
moving the club. Captain Hogarth said:
1--WE are glad to say that no one was hurt.
1T was most unfortunate. We purposely
did not raise our baby jib to avoid the
strain. and l can't understand it."
At 11:5J the Shamrock lowered her main
sail and jib, and taking a line from her
tender, started up for the city, with her
topmast broken close to her lower mast
head.
Practically the race was closed so far as
competition went. The Shamrock's crew
cut away the remnant of the topmaSt,
finding It broken close to the lower mast,
and. hauling to the deck, removed the club.
Captain HOgarth would not attempt any
explanation.
He said he was glad the sail had not come
down to the deck. and pleased that nobody
was injured. Then he ordered sail taken III,
and when the sorrowful crew had gotten to
work the tender took the challenger in tow
ana started up toward the city. Mr.. Thomas
Upton bringing up the rear of the mourn
full procession in the Erin. As they passed
the excursion boats there We're some faint
cheers, but the crew did not answer them
Sir Thomas ranged alongside at once and
spoke encouragingly to Captain Hogarth,
who seemed to feel the accident keenly 1t
is to be remarked that the Shamrock was
not carrying as much sail as the Columbia
when her topmast broke, for she had not
raised her baby jib. Just before the sail
went over, the Shamrock was seen to
ease off very much from the wind, and 1t
is probable that Captain Hogarth either
heard the mast crack was afraid of 1t.
She was jumping in the lumpy sea at the
time, and the strain must have been great.
The Columbia, evidently afraid of a similar
accident, Immediately took In her baby jib
of the puffy wind and lumpy sea, but pro-
ceeded on her course.
She made long tack to starhoard, rum
ming toward shore after the accident to
the ST amrock, and then, at II :5S, gybed
and tackled to port, under the agreement
to finish the course in the time limit If pos
sible AT 12:15 the wind had dropped some
what but still there was enough to put her
over the course in time, although the
finish, and that the race would be declared
off.
Accident to Excursion Steamer.
NEW YORK, October 17-Steamboat Co
lumbia with a number of excursiontsts on
board bound for the yacht race, stopped
in the Narrows near Fort Hamilton at 1915
am She has apparently broken valve.
The steamboat Dolphin has gone alongside
and is about to take on board her passen-
gers.
The excursion boat Columbia returned
from the yacht races this morning to her
dock where her captain reported that
valve had been blown out. Repairs Will
be made and the steamer will be ready to
go out the next race day.

staring at us for a long time the room
was cleared and something prepared
US to eat. 1t would take too long to
tell you all that we had to eat, but we
had eggs in every style, also chicken
with lots of caribou meat thrown In.
The repast was fine and they did

After the meal we started up to the

our usual number of staring friends,
to where they were having 8 dance.
We thought we would see lot OF
homely maidens and men half dressed.
but to our surprise, we found all pre-
sent in an evening costume. We were
forced to dance with them, and they
made things so pleasant for us that we
were at home in q short time. Their
music was very up-to-date, having q
string band of about six pieces, being
like the Mexicans, soft and sweet.
After the dance we were invited to
sumptuous repast and then visited the
barracks, where they are organizing
regiment to be used as scouts. After
this we went back to our friend, who
had received us, and had something
more to eat, this time we had not only
supper but plenty of wine. We at

coming on we were forced to spend the
night with our host. He had no beds
