Speaking of the Columbia he said;
She is a fine, fast boat and was splen-

heartily. Mr.. Iselin and those associ-
ated with him on board are honorable

Great crowds had collected on the

over the result was very keen.
At the Hotel Cecil, where crowds OF
Americans had collected to await the
announcement Of the ticker, cheers re-

When the result was communicated
to the audience there was a general

The first few minutes Of the race
were most interesting. They made 9
beautiful picture as they raced away
like hounds. 1t was soon apparent that
the white flyer was forging ahead The
Columbia not only seemed to outfoot
the challenger but experts saw that
she pointed higher, Within Is minutes
she had a lead OF FIVE lengths and
from that time on tue race was hers.
The work of the patrol fleet was per-
feet and kept the yachts as free from
interference as II they had been sailing
in the middle OF the Atlantic.
The race tomorrow will be over a
triangular course 10 miles to the leg
and the Shamrock will have opportuni-
ty to show what she can do under these
conditions.

NEW YORK, oct, l6.-The cup which
the old schooner America won so hand
lily against all corners over the couIs,
around the Isle OF Wight in 1851 ant
brough. back across the ocean viii
probably remain here another year q
defiance to the world.
Opinion as to the merits OF the rw'
boats had been somewhat divided as &
result Of the fukes during the past tive
weeks, Although the preponderance OF
, expert opinion never wavered IN itI
loyalty to the wonderful speed and
ability OF the white flyer, no nautical
sharp expected that the Shamrock
would be so overwhelmingly van
quished as she was in today's race.
The Yankee boat out-generaled her
at the start. beat her hopeleSsly in
windward work to the outer mark and
gained 22 seconds in the run home be-
fore the wind. There was strong
10 or i2-knot breezee, and 1t held good
throughout the race.
This is undoubtedly bitter blow, be
cause English hopes OF lifting the cup
have never been higher since the
Thistle met the Volunteer in 1887. Like
the Shamrock, she was decisively de-
feated In the FIRST hours sailing.
The regatta committee, as a result Of
the showing made by the Columbia to-
day, are convinced that the cup is safe.
Blow high or blow low, the Columbia,
It ls believed by her manager Mr., Ise-
lin, can beat the Shamrock. Sir Thomas
Upton, like the true sportsman that he
is, confessed after the race that he had
been fairly beaten. He mad no apollo
giles TO make.
Today race was magnificent duel,
and made up for the repeated disap-
pointments the sightseers have suf-
fered.
There was lively jockeying behind the
line before the start and the Columbia
got the better of it, She clearly out
manouvered her rival. Eventually fore
ing her over the line first by half a
length but leaving the Shamrock in
weather positison.
