OLD SAILING RECORDS.
Speed In Ocean Travel Shown by Some
American Ships.

American Ships.
In recent number of the Herald
ma statement of the remarkable pas
sAages made in the last few years by the
American ship Erskine W. Phelps, own.
ed in Bath, Me. The way in which the
statement is put might lead casual
reader to believe that all previous ocean
sailing records had gone by the board. |
therefore take the liberty of calling your
attention to certain properly verified rec
oros made, most of them, half a century
ago, says Rowland Tho has, in the Bos-
ton Herald.
Inc most noteworthy performance of
tne Phelps, all things considered, is her
run from Norfolk, Va, to Honolulu, a
issuance OF Is, 900 miles, which she cover
co IN mnety-seven days, daily average
oI 100 miles. The record voyage over
approximately the same distance is that
OF the ship Comet, San Francisco to New
1orK, seventy-six days. In the same
connection must be noted the old ship
northern Light, which averaged 200
mlles day for the passage from San
franclso to Boston, and the truly memoir
aDle voyage of the famous ship Houqua,
Shanghai to New York, lightweight
The Phelps also has to her credit pas
sage from New York to Java Head, 49,
OOU miles, in eighty days, averaging 1925
miles per day. The old East India Black
waller Alnwick Castle, not clipper,
twice made the run from the Channel to
the Sandheads at the entrance of the
Hoogiy, an approximately equal distance,
IN slxty-eight days also have at hand
a clipping from the Daily Post of Lon
don, pasted inside the cover of sea-
worn Bowditch, which gives the record
passage from Melbourne to the Mersey
as slxty-three days. The same skipper
made two other memorable round trips,
England to Melbourne and return, in the
Black Ball liner Marco Polo-one in five
months, twenty-six days, the other in
one or two days over or under six months
For bursts of speed the Phelps best is
very good indeed. An hours run of
fourteen miles, day run of 800, and a
run of 6, 500 miles in twenty days, or
an average or $50. That surpasses the
old record of the Swordfish, Shanghai to
San Francisco, thirty-one days, or an
average of 240 miles. But it must be
remembered that the run of the
Phelps was made wholly at sea, with
open water and the southeast trades
broad abeam, while the Swordhsh had to
get OFT the coast clear of the China sea
and then pass north of the zone of the
trades. And the Phelps best is small
compared with the runs of the real ocean
racers, the old American full clippers
That crowned queen of the sea, the
beautiful old Flying Cloud, holds rec
ord which will probably stand to the end
of time. In day of twenty-four hours
she made a properly verified ran of 433
miles, an hourly average of eighteen
knots. And her rival, the Sovereign of
the Sea, was but little behind her 1t
will be seen, therefore, that the best of
our day must be much bettered to match
the best of the days when sailors sailed
and looked down from their poops with
infinite scorn on the steam which was
moping along at a humble six or seven
knots.
