TURNS THE TABLES
ON RIVAL CRAFT
Yacht Vanitie Wins Fourth of
Competitive Races Over
Long Island Sound.
RATED AS FAIRER TEST
THAN THAT OF TUESDAY
Vessels Now to Prepare for the Open
Sea Contests Off Sandy
Hook.

!, RYE. n. Y. June 6-The bronze yacht
Vanitie turned the tables on her rival
the Resolute. in the fourth Long Island
| sound race. sailed today under the aus
! pices of the Larchmont Yacht Club over
| a triangular course, winning by minutes
! 81 seconds in elapsed time.
| As the Vanitie gives the Resolute an
estimated allowance over the 29a4 4-mile
course, such as was sailed today. of s
| minutes and 12 seconds. the margin OF
the Gardner boat over the Herreshoff
; creation was believed to have been 9
| minutes and 40 seconds. Both Cornelius
Vanderbilt and J. P. Morgan of the
Resolute syndicate were on board that
sloop today and sailed the course with
| her in her defeat.
Although sailed in light to moderate
airs. which We're somewhat uncertain at
times, the race was fairer test than
! the contest on Tuesday, which was re-
| garded as more or less of huke. and
| which the Vanitie won by 16 minutes
and 4S seconds.
Except for the first two miles, the
race today was more of a procession
than when the Resolute led the Vanitie
on the second race Wednesday, which
the Bristol boat won by IL seconds.
Both Yachts Handicapped.
Both yachts were slow in starting and
both were handicapped. Fifteen minutes
after the start on the first leg the Vani-
tie went by the Resolute to windward,
principally through the grand work of
her now famous ballooner jtb topsatl. 1t
was the same sail that dragged the
Cochran yacht to victory Tuesday. The
lead Of the Vanitie kept constantly in
creasing until the fourth leg. when the
Resolute recovered 2 minutes by bring
ing up a new breeze.
first leg, the Vanitie luffed around the
first mark, three minutes and nine
teen seconds to the good. The Vanitie
increased her lead to six minutes and
fourteen seconds at. the second mark.
Resolute Picks Up Two Minutes.
BY the time the third mark was
passed the breeze had canted around
until it blew almost directly down the
fourth leg. or the first leg of the tri-
angular course on the second time
around Astern. the Resolute was
caught by the Increasing hreeze and
bowled along like a raceliorse. picking
up two minutes in the six miles slide
down the wind.
The race was settled them, for the
vanitie. scudding across the sound on
the fifth leg. met the freshening breeze
which had blown the Resolute along.
The Cochran yacht again showed that
she is wonderfully fast boat. for at
the ffth mark she was five minutes
and eighteen seconds to the good.
On the last leg the Vanitie pulled
away stin farther on the ,Resolute and
sped across the finish line a consistent
winner.

ration for the three open-sea con-

Matter of New Church Will Be Thoroughly Discussed by Session
 This Morning

Much interest is being manifested in the proposed new church building of the First Presbyterian church which is to cost, it is said in the neighbor- hood of $l00000. Those who attended that church on Easter Sunday both morning and evening had most con- vincing proof of the need of a larger building, as the old church was crowd ed to overfloWing.
 The services today will be of eXcep- tional interest as the morning service will be given over to discussion of the plans for the proposed new church, and the erection of it at an early date. This statement is tantamount to one that the church auditorium will again be overcroWded.
