SHE WINS
THE SERIES
The Columbia Took the
Third Race For Cup.
SHAMROCK IS NOT In IT
After Getting the Better Of the
Start She Was Easily
Passed.
BREEZE WAS A FINE ONE
At the Last it Was Blowing Eighteen
Miles an HOur--The Challenger
Was Plainly Outclassed by the
Detender--Cup Stays Here

New York, Oct. 2O-The conditions OF
wind and weather in this city at $50 a.
m. to-day were encouraging for sailing
the international yacht race. At 8
O'Clock the sun drove away the gray
clouds that earlier had been fiinging down
drops of nasty moisture and there was a
promise of day Of clear sunshine. A
good breeze and a racing sea, a combi-
nation that has lot been prevalent during
the unfortunate trial days. The wind
at that hour was splendid, blowing fully
Is miles.
1t was nearly half past o'clock when
observers near the starting line saw tho
white wings of the yachts appearing
out of the haze and jumping along under
a spanking breze toward the lightship.
The Shamrock pushed her nose through
the foam as If the breeze had been made
expressly for her. The Columbia sat
up sttaighter and looked a trifle more
digniffed. The yachts jumped out OF the
smooth water of the hook into the chop
py sea under their own sail as if rejoic-
ing in their ability to move so rapidly.
AT 1o:45 when the preparatory gun was
fired the Columbia was shooting up to
WindWard of The starting line on the
starboard track. She carried mainsail
and jib only, but had her stay sail in stops
ready to break out. The white boat
heeled over so that her lee rail was under
water all the time and spray flew over
her sharp bows. The Shamrock was
half mile south of the lghtship but
when Hogarth saw the smoke he fetch
ed the Shamrock about and hurried to
get to the weather OF the line The CO.
lumbia had in the meantime come about
and ran down to meet her rival and then
coming about again reached to the wind
ward ahead OF the challenger. Both
boats broke cut their forestay sails when
the warning gun was fired at 10:5 90 a. m.

which in the meantime had moved under
cover and made ready to open fire. The

In fact. after delivering their fire, they
hesitated, apparently staggered at their
poor success with the rifles and per-

out of range, they quickly turned and

showing was wretched. The volunteers
