caused decided disappointment in
London. The papers published hourly
editions throughout the day. The first
reports regarding the wealthy at Sandy
Hook inclined the public to believe that
the Shamrock had ideal conditions, and
the news that the Reliance had out
footed her in the drifting match was
complete dsillusion. Several papers
had arranged to announce the progress
and result of the contest by fireworks
and balloons. Crowds fingered in the
streets, in the dismalest sort of London

freshen and permit of a finish, but ear

She Decides to Walk.
II had no money with which to buy

when kind-hearted farmers would al
low me to ride in their wagons. Sew

points further off the actual course
than did Reliance. 80 II
Three and a half hours after the
start it was evident that the race could
not be finished within the time limit.
Reliance had steadily gained, and was
then a good two miles dead ahead OF
her rival, when observers noted that
Shamrock III. had caught a little slant
of wind from the west and was cutting
down the lead. Reliance promptly
went about when milesaway from the
turn and catching the westerly wind,
scurried away for the mark at almost
a racing pace. The wind continued
to freshen until she. swept around the
mark at 3:37:20, heeling to smart
northwest breeze and giving the first
real exhibition of her speed.
The defender hauled on the wind for
close reach back to- the finish line,
saluted by the whistles of the big
fleet. Shamrock HI was coming on a
fast clip to meet the returning defend
err but she had been so far astern that
it was eight minutes after Reliance
turned the mark before the racers met
going in opposite directions, indicating
that Reliance's actual lead was sixteen
minutes.
just at that moment the regatta COM
mittee's tug displayed the signal "the
race is off," and Shamrock. III. came
about and followed Reliance a short
distance. Shamrock III. never turned
the mark. They were taken in tow OF
tugs and the fleet, hurrying home
ward, quickly dropped them.
The admirers of Reliance are jubi-
liant because the American yacht DEM
onstrated that in extremely light airs
and unusually rough water she could
show her heels to the British challeng-
er and those were the conditions be-
lieved to be the severest test Of the
Herreshoff boat.

Shamrock III. was expected to have
an advantage in the light wind and
rough water, both of which she had in
the extreme.
When the committee tug fired the
. preparatory signal at 10:45 the two
racers were crossing the line for lit
tie brush out to the windward of it,
but as the warning signal was fired at

toward the line. Shamrock III whfrled
on her heel just to leeward of the line

followed.

STORY OF THE FIRST
TRIAL OF CUP YACHTS

NEW YORK, Aug. 20. = Reliance
reached the starting line at 10 a. m.
and dropped her tow line. Shamrock
III. arrived ten minutes later. No
sooner had Shamrock III. filled away
than the Reliance bore down on her
from a windward position and hauled
on the wind alongside of her in posi-
ton to blanket the challenger. Capt,
Wringe promptly wore ship and bore
away from the Reliance, refusing to
take part in the brush.
The New York Yacht club regatta
committees tug established line be-
tween the Sandy Hook lightship and
herself at 1920 a. M, and signaled that
the race would be fifteen miles to
windward and return, the first leg
south-southeast. The wind was then
blowing about five knots.
There was a moderate sea running
in long ground swells and the boats
were pitching rather heavily. The con-
ditions were unfavorable to the Reli-
ance, judging from her early trials.
