against Portland. but with Lewiston out
OF the league the matter resolves itself
into n simple business proposition

Providence TO Portland is considerable

ton Race by Two Seconds.
Final Makeup Of the New England Polo
Circuit Not Yet Determined.

The invitation race arranged under the
direction OF j. Harris Foster. whose sum-
mer home is at Riverview. was sailed
yesterday under conditions which were
not the most favorable for racing. There
was fair breeze for sailing when the
race was begun soon after O'Clock. but
the fog shut in thick at times, during the
afternoon and 1t was impossible to fol-
low the yachts over the course from the
judges boat The feature OF the day was
the contest between the Nobska, owned
by Mr.. Foster. and the Ina, owned by
~ c. Arnold. In which the former won
out by two seconds. and exceedingly well
sailed and pleasing race.
The course was from a stakeboat OFT
Bayside To and around the Ohio ledge
buoy, and return. the course TO be sailed
twice. Ten boats started in the 3O-foot
class and OF these three finished, the
Emeline and the Wanderer giving up be-
cause OF mishaps which put them out OF
the race. The race between the Ina ana
the Nobska was close throughout and II
was anybody's race until the line was
crossed. At the finish the Nobska was
leading and 10 windward. and when less
than loo yards from the line the Nobska's
boom swung over the Ina ana touched
one Of the crew OF the latter boat This
was not allowed as a foul because of the
rule requiring that the wTndward boat
have abundant room for manoeuvering
The boats neither gave nor received time
allowance.
In the 3D-fOot class the Nolsung nau

gin OF more than seven minutes. In the
