gave the Constitution a great beating
the latter finishing a good third OF a
mile astern of her antagonist and being
defeated two minutes and five seconds.
The victory was surprising, for the race
was sailed in weather that a s rule has
just suited the Constitution, the wind
never exceeding Twelve knots and the
sea being comparatively smooth.
1t wac until Newport was reached
that an intelligent explanation of the
result could be given. The Constitution,
following right in the wake of the Coi-
umbia struck twice on ledge near the
Race Rock light house. There was a
substantial bump on each occasion and
after this accident the Constitution be-
haved like lame duck. All her old time
smartness was lacking. Her speed was
diminished and she sagged off to lee
ward. Mr.. Duncan. who is in command,
said this evening that he believed that
some of the plates on the leaden keel
were wrenched Off by the force OF the
impact on the hard rock and that these
plates from the I'm acted as a drag on
the yacht and made her incapable of
showing her usual racing form. A diver
was cent down shortly after the Consti-
tuition was moored last night but ne was
unable to make a satisfactory explana-
ton and Mr.. Duncan decided not to race
the boat further until she has been
hauled out and opportunity given for a
thorough investigation.
