south and now IL shook the jfb and
jib topsail OF Resolute.
Instantly Capt. Adams eased her
off and then brought her around to
the starboard tack. Shamrock fol-
lowed, of course, and she was then
(as theretofore) little IL any more
than 200 yards off Resolute's lee quar-
ter. Nevertheless her mascots' now
deserted her shamefully. In ten min
utes she was unable to point as high
as Rosolute pointed by a difference
of perhaps two points. Rarely has
any yacht sailor seen such a remark
able change Of fortune. In half a mile
Shamrock was half an hour TO the
bad. She had lost the wind and was
unable to find Il, while Resolute held
At. And though II was light, she SIM
ply fed from the challenger.
Resolute rounded the first turn at
4:3257, as taken on the yacht Corsalr.
Shamrock was then a mile away and
reeling in the calm like a spar buoy.
Finally, after many short taclIs. she
came TO tho turn at $1,000, or 81
minutes 20 seconds behind Resolute.
In the meantime Resolute had held
her charming little gale and was Rctu-
ally null down and almost out Of
sight altogether in the smoky mist
off Long Branch.
II was not, OF course, her superior
ity In model and handling that gave
her this lead; II was the desertion
of Shamrock's traitorous mascots
from their unhappy owner.
After rounding the first mark the
gods at one time helped Shamrock
until she came up within two miles
Of Resolute-perhaps she was neare'

but they again deserted her and
left her limp in sail II not in the cour-
age OF her crew.
Shamrock covered the last leg in
less time than Resolute had used,
but found the gain not too satisfac-
tory.
Perhaps some friends OF the chal-
lenger will hope for a smashing wind
tomorrow, for that would at least
imperil the top-hamper of the close
cut defender. They may also hope
for a rain, because that would shrink
Resolutes malnsal and increase the
strain on the throat halyards as II
did on Thursday. 1t might once more
increase that strain TO the breaking
point
But not Sir Thomas or his crew
will think OF such things. What they
hope for is a strong breeze, fair and
true. that will carry the racers over
the unfinished triangle course In less
than four hours And for that all
good sailormen alike will hope.

tators that she did not quite make
the course on which she was pointed
that she made some leeway In spite
of her speed. Moreover, her speed
was not so much crater than Reso-
lute's as II seemed to be as seen from
the evening press boat.
As time passed the wind proved
somewhat variable in It's course and
strength. In its veerins II helped
drst Resolute and then Shamrock,
but all the time Resolute worked up
siwind and Shamrock drifted alec until
m hour had passed.
At that time an oficer Of the press
boat-0olds sborough-plotted the DO
uition OF the two racers by means of
a range finder, and this located
Shamrock 800 yards forward of the
beam Of Resolute, but 800 yards alec
OF Resolute's course.
1t seemed, therefore, that II Sham
rock had tackled at that time to cross
ReSolute's course she would have
passed 500 yards (2S per cent. of a
mile) astern Of the defender.
During the first hour, in a light-air
race, whore the breeze, such as 1t
was, came to each alike 80 far as
any spectator could see, the defender
gained more than q querter of a mile.
She proved the superiority OF her
skipper and crew, and she confirmed
the impression she had made by her
work during the first leg Of Thurs
days race.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, May 11.-Although as
a result of wet weather corn ad-
vanced today TO the highest prices
vet this season, the gains did not
hold we'll. Closing quotations were
unsettled, varying from 3sc net de-
cline to a rise of &c with July
$1.751A to $1.75ss and September
S1.G25s to $1.62%. Oats lost &c
to 2sc to 1c. In provisions, the
outcome ranged from sc off to
1212c advance.
Fear that the rains prevailing
would delay planting had an evil
dent bullish effect on the corn
market at the opening, but a re-
action quickly followed owing to
announcement that the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway
would give preference to grain
loading during the next ten days
in arranging distribution of cars.
It was said also that another of the
big western roads would take simi-
lar action. On the other hand, con-
gested traffic conditions on the
Belt railway here tended to make
shorts anxious, and led to many
bulges and reactions, with an IT.
regular finish that apparently in
dicated more division of sentiment
than has of late been the rule.
Reports that 100000 bushels of
Canadian oats We're afloat on the
lakes for Chicago counted as bear
ish factor in the oats market.

by the action of corn. D

New York, May 1.-THE stock
market today continued to express
by its further reactionary trend an
accession of bearish sentiment
among traders and the almost COM
plete absence of public interest or
support.
Dealings again were largely re-
stricted to selected or SPECULATIVE
shares and it required no great de-
gree of selling pressure to effect
additional impairment OF quoted
values, except among pooled is
sues.
Some substantial rallies occurred
in the later dealings. particularly in
oils, equipments and shippings, but
these resulted more from short
covering than actual demand. The
only significant feature of the later
rebound lay in the fact that it was
accomplished in the face of 10
per cent rate for call loans, as
against the early quotation of Z per
cent. r......-
