WORK ON THE RELIANCE.
The Cup Defender Floating Near Her
 Designed Water Lsne

Designed Water Line
 Bristol R. T., April 14.-With the mainmast and most of its rigging in place, and the bowsprit attached. the bow of the cup defender Reliance has settled, and she facts now with the bow much lower than the afterpart. Even when tho main boom is on board and the4boat attains her designed bal ance, it is thought that she will still be distinguishable from the other nine- ty-footers at a distance by dip for ward. It seems certain that she has a. lower freeboard than the Constitution by at least six inches.
 The riggers were at work to-day rig ging up double bobstay, which is somewhat of an innovation in cup de- lenders. An extra set of spars, includ- ing the gaff, boom, and mast, except duplicates of the ones now aboard. are being made for the yacht.

SHAMROCK IN HEAVY SEA
FINE PERFORMANCE BY THE
 NEW CHALLENGER.
In Tougher Water Than She Has Ever Experienced Before She Sails smooth- ly and Weil-Captain Wringe Does Considerable Jpolksying and outsaiIs Ihe Old Boat on Every Point.

Weymouth, England, April t.-A race os sixteen miles to leeward from off Weymouth and a beat back was laid out for the Shamrocks to-day, but shortly after leaving their moorings a weak spot developed in the cup chaI- lengers gear. When the boats got out side the shelter of the breakwater the wind came in hard gusts and the yachts seemed to have all they could stagger under, and required an occa- sional luff-up to ease them. The strain found a weak spot in Shamrock HIS peak halyard gear. A man was sent aloft and on his report the yacht went into sheltered water and anchored. All her sail was then dropped on deck, Shamrock I. also anchored and dropped her headsails.
 The wind subsequently, softened and the boats were sent off on trial spin to leeward and return. There was no formal start Shamrock l. led by a, length, but the new boat in few min utes closed the gap and ran clear ahead. Clubtopsails were added as the yachts went down the wind, and the challenger spun out d constantly in- creasing lead,
 It was a little after 1 o'clock when the boats started, Erin going ahead to log off the course. During the first five miles, the challenger outran the older boat about couple of minutes and held this lead to the first turn, where the innings were:
 Shamrock III. .....................2 .2:24:03 ohdmEock l. ..'.+. .........- .2:2b:Zj
 As the Shamrocks went about for the beat, they met a bigger sea than the challenger had ever previously faced. She took it smoothly and we'll, however, and couple of short tacks sufffced to convince those on board of her that she could easily outsail Shamrock I. under these conditions. Shamrock III. then bore away and ran back for fresh start. She came about close on the weather beam of Shamrock l., giv- ing up, therefore, all she had gained on the run, and they started together on the windWard heat. Neither wind nor sea seemed to trouble the challenger. She sailed fast and high in the wind, making about a quarter of a mile dead to windward in twenty minutes, sail ing. .I.<.. ,..
 Having demonstrated the chaileng- CTS superiority in both pointing and sailing, Captain Wringe for some un- known reason. followed the same tac- tics as were pursued during the latter half of the leeward run, and refrained from pushing his victory heme.. The challenger was sailed off and on the wind in the most barefaced fashion, beating away at times till the wind was almost abeam and luffing at others till her headsails quivered She proba- bly, lost couple of minutes in this way, and even then the challenger scored handsomely, beating, Shamrock I. six minutes and three seconds in an hours windward work, the finish being as follows:
