fleet has sailed from Turkey for
Sebastopie, whence it came last week

Wins the information
al Race Saturday,
Beating Shamrock iii by
Nine Minutes in a 30
Mile Course.
The Two Vessels Very Evenly
MdtChed---The Yankee
Crew the Best
Sailors.

The first of the yacht races of the
1903 series, for the Americas cup,
was won, Saturday by the Reliance
she beating the British vessel, Sham
rock Ill, nine minutes. in the race OF
80 miles-l5 miles out and return.
The s-st 10 miles was against the
wind, both vessels having to tack the
entire distance. The race was
so even on this part of the course,
that it was hard to tell, which ves-
sci was ahead, but when the Reliance
rounded the buoy, three minutes and
twenty-four seconds ahead, the fleet
of vessels that carried the sightseers
announced by the roar and screech-
ing of the whistles and the cheers of
their passengers that the American
vessel had won the first point.
Coming home, before the wind, the
Reliance spread to the breeze every
inch of her large sail area, and con.
jstantly increased the distance be-
tween herself. and the Shamrock, and
came to the starting point, nine min
utes in the lead.
Two more races are to be run. and
in the other two, the Shamrock may
do better. She met with an acciden,
in getting started, that lost her jib
This may have been to her disad
vantage in the whole race-probably
Twas. After turning the buoy, il
spreading their full sail area, to sal
J before the wind, the vessels met with
a similar accident, delaying the full
spread of their sails, but the crew O.
the Reliance much sooner corrected
their mishap, and here, too, th'
shamrock probably lost.
Owing to these facts, and the close
: ness of the race to the turning point
: the Shamrock still has a chance T.
) win, and Sir Thomas Upton is ye
: hopeful. The next race will there
fore be watched with unabated inter
est.
The race was sailed on the SD an
niversary of the day when the Amer
E lea outstripped the whole feet o
