CONSTITUTION WON THE RACE
BEAT BOTH OLD CHAMPIONS.
Columbia and independence Were
OutcIassed - Columbia Handled
Neutrality-suspicious. n Disappoint-
ment.

Newport. r. T., July An unqualified
victory for the CONSTITUTIONAL over
whelming defeat for the independence,
most commendable showing for the old
champion. the Columbiais the record OF
the first days contest of the big sloops in
the Newport Racing association series.
From the firing of the starting gun, which
sent the yachts off to windward in a light
easterly breeze, the Constitution led her
rivals. At the turning buoy she was a
little more than two minutes in advance
of the Columbia, while the Independence
was hull down to leeward.
But it was on the run home that the
new Herreshof yacht showed her great
strength, beating the Columbia over eight
minutes in the 10 miles down the wind,
and when the new champion of the Amer
ica's cup swept across the line the Bos-
ton yacht was over seven miles astern
Owing the lightness of the wind there
was no brilliant CT dramatic scene to
chronicle, but it was full of interesting
events nevertheless. The chief incident OF
the contest was of course the failure OF
the Independence to meet the eXpecta-
tons of her adherents. AT no time dur
ing the contest to windward did she show
any weatherly qualities whatever. She
did not point as high as her opponents,
nor did she even for brief interval dem
onstrate that she possessed traction of
that speed which she seemed to have
shown when sailing by herself That she
may be vastly improved is possible, but
that she profoundly disappointed her
friends today can not be concealed, for in
light winds her excellence was chiefly
supposed to rest. When she got fairly
out into the open sea she pounded heav-
lily i'll the southwest swell, and the more
she pounded the more she seemed to lose
Roadway.
So far as the Constitution success was
concerned, it was no more than was ex-
pected of her by those who have watched
her keenly since her launching. Handled
splendidly and with rare judgment, but
not in the least better than the Column
bia, her superior size and bigger sail plan
told.
The boast OF some experts that Nat
Herreshof had reached his limit when he
designed the Columbia are not justified
by today's race, Whether the Columbia
will beat the Constitution i'll hard weather
remains to be proved.
The Columbia was sailed in a most mer-
itorious manner from start to finish All
the arts of the professional sea Jockey
were practiced by Captain Barr, the sail
ing master, and his crew to overcome
their opponent. That they had the infe-
rior boat so close to her superior antagon-
ist all the way to the outer mark was a
wonderful piece of work. That the Con
stitution is by far the better all round
boat, let it blow high or low, is hardly
to be doubted after her showing

Behaved Badly.

Gov. McSWeeney received q letter
Friday from Sheriff Jno. r. L3gsn of
York county telling him Of the very
peculiar action Of North Carolina
sheriff. Some time ago Sheriff Logan
asked the North Carolina sheriff to
arrest fer him one James Lindsay, a
negro, wanted in York county for mur-
der. The sheriff at Newton, N. c.,
did arrest Lindsay and notified Sheriff
Logan, stating that the fellow was
willing to come without a requisi,ion.
The South Carolina sheriff had already
informed the North Csrolira off ser
that there was nc reward for the negro.
Sheriff Logan sent a deputy on to bring
the negro back. The North Carolina
sheriff refused to give him up, saying
that be would not do so without re-
ward and threaten:d even to turn the
negro loose. The deputy came back
without his man. Then Sheriff Logan
informed Gov. McS8eeney and Friday
requisition papers were issued upon the
governor of North Carolina and Sheriff
Logan is to go on to Newton himself.
Gov. McSEeeney will probably report
the very rerrehensible conduct Of the
North Carolina officer to the governor
of North Carolina for such action as he
