SEAFARER WAS
FIRST AWAY

LOS ANGELES, June 16.-With
surprising burst of speed, which
placed her far in the lead at the very
outset, the schooner Seafarer, Captain
Norris of San Francisco, crossed the
starting line in the annual transpa-
cifc yacht race from San Pedro to
Honolulu at ! o'clock this afternoon.
Following the Seafarer was the Ha-
waii, OF Honolulu, Captain Stroud;
the Lurline, San Pedro, Captain Har-
ris, and the Mattose, of Victoria, b.
c., Captain Ashe in the order named.
The start of the fourth annual race
to Honolulu could scarcely have been
under more favorable conditions. The
sea was comparatively smooth. a fair
breeze was blowing and an immense
gallery OF private and public craft
was out to escort the racers to sea.
Not changing the course after she
crossed the starting line, the Seafar-
er steered straight for Catalina, and
the other entrants, taking the lead OF
the San Francisco captain, fell into
line and the four were out of sight
within an hour.
With fair weather it was expected
the winner of the race would reach
Honolulu within fourteen days.
