The fleet OF excursion boats. yachts and tugs

PRAISE FOR BARR'S WORK.
NEW-YORK YACHT CLUB EXPERTS
THINK THE CUP WILL STAY HERE.

The Columbia's magnificent victory over the
Shamrock the topic of discussion at the New
York Yacht Club house. in West Forty-fourth-st.,
last night. Comparatively few of the members OF
the club were there, but Saturday is always an off
day the club.
Commodore S. Nicholson Kane was very much
elated over the victory of the American boat He
said: ''It certainly great race. the greatest
in the history OF cup racing between America and
England 1t anybody's right up to the
finish. OF course I expected to see the Columbia
win, and think she will win the next two races
and will retain the Cup. Captain Barr simply
outmaneuvred Captain Sycamore He held the
Englishman up the windward and worked all
around him. 1t was a great and worth going
thousands of miles The American boat
demonstrated her ability to-day to beat any boat
of her kind that floats. The other races should be
close and exciting enough for anybody"
Ex-Commodore Edward NJ. Brown another
member of the club who greatly elated
the outcome 1T grand struggle" he said.
'The boats are very close together over a thirty
mile course and the coming contests ought to be
well worth witnessing. I think, of course, that
Columbia will win"
Captain Niels o. Olsen said: Captain Barr out
maneuvred Captain Sycamore on number of occa-
sions during the race and therein lies the victory
to Columbia 1t a magnifcently sailed race.
Several times Captain Barr made a bluff go in
behind the Shamrock and take her wind. Captain

INTEREST," IN THE BULLETINS
CROWDS EAGER FOR ALL THE NEWS
OF THE CONTEST.

Hundreds of men and many women spent the
greater portion of yesterday standing in front of
the bulletin boards outside of the newspaper Offices
in Park Row watching for the announcements that
told Of the relative positions Of the racing yachts
The crowd came early. Long before the yachts
ready to start eager people looked for pre-
liminary news of the movements OF the con-
testants for the Americas Cup. Soon after 10
o'clock the street barely passable, and by the
time the vessels were jockeying for the
sands had gathered almost completely blocking
the street
Cheers greeted the notice of the start, even
though the Shamrock did cross the line ahead OF
the Columbia. Up to this time there were many in
the crowds who openly said they hoped the green
yacht would win. Some gave one reason. n
other but If poll had been taken ii is likely that
Shamrock lovers would have been in the ma jority.
After the start, however, all this changed.
TITS all right to say Shamrock before the race"
said man. but guess Americans don't want
the Cup TO go abroad after all Patriotism will
dominate such occasion as this. With all
regard for Sir Thomas guess not a man here
wishes in his heart that the Columbia will lose"

1t is unpleasant to find a note Of dissatisfac-
ton with Captain Barrs tactics at the starting
line. The complaint is not believe, a new
one, though hitherto that has mostly come from
shippers belonging to the country of Captain
Barrs adoption. In spite of his naturalization
American. his British birth and great
ability have exposed him to q COOS deal of jeal-
ousy on the part of his fellow racing shippers
in America, and have prompted allegations OF
sharp practice for which there is no foundation
1t is earnestly hoped that the shippers of both
yachts will do all in their power to avoid even
a suspicion of unfairness.

PREMATURE CHEERING ON THAMES.
DISAPPOINTMENT FOLLOWED THE OFF,
CIAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE RESULT.
London, Sept 2S.-The London crowds began
TO watch the bulletin boards. colored bombs and
variegated flashlights without much hope Of the
challenger winning, but when it was announced
that the Shamrock was ahead at the turn Of the
outer mark the immense assemblages at the
Crystal and Alexandra palaces and the
Thames Embankment became surprisingly
cheerful, and as the successive green illumina-
tions showed the Shamrock was still leading
after the turn, expectation Of her winning rose
to a certainty, but when, shortly after the turn,
red fires and red rockets suddenly announced
that the Columbia was ahead, and later that
she had won. the amazed multitudes stood
silent. Here and there there a wild Amer
lean screech. and few groans and Kisses, and
then the disgusted crowds slowly broke up.
The scanty accounts of the race circulating in
the extra editions Of evening papers, and on the
ticker tapes, describing the keenness and close
Of the finish, have, however, restored popu-
lar faith somewhat in the possibility of the
Shamrock's final success. though more expert
enced judgment, taking both days performances
together, does not get much consolation. The
betting has almost ceased. though around the
hotels some Americans rather freely offered two

most capable of judging is best expressed by
