H-7 j, TIIK WORLD: TUESDAY KVKMiNG, AUGUST 21), I8!). I
b dent from the appearance of the foim-
E' lnS whlt jcapsi whjch began to dot the
K, surface ot the ocean In every direction.
v Two schooners had followed th
El racers to leeward, up to this point,
E'' while tho remainder of the fleet formed
K long procession, well to leeward.
E In the brisk breeze the big single-
K stickers began to leavo the small craft
H: behind, and at 12.10 they wero far In the
H lead of everything but the fastest steam
K, yachts artel ona or two tugs.
Hr- Ily this time Defender felt the rflect
Hr , of the Increased wind, which had struck
HT Vigilant llrnt. and began to oerhaul
R her rival. She had apparently made up
KS tho greater part of tho distance lost at
Hfc tho start and wan clearly occuplng a
Ht good berth to windward.
K Vlgllant's baby topsail did not revm
E- to be of any benrtlt, for It was con
E tlnually shaking Tho courso of the
K yachti on this tack was almost due
K, At 121"i the wind wai still Increasing
f and both the Users felt Its rITect. It
K mint havo been blowing at about flftpeu
Bt knots out whero tho acht were, and
Kr both heeled an ay ov?r to leeward as
K1 they held on the long tack.
L Defender More 1eatherl-r,
K Defender stood up better than lgl-
HL Jnnt, nnd continued to gain.
R At 1216 Defender's bowsprit m-r-
Hf lapped the boom of Vlgllant's mainsail,
Bf ' seen from the Highlands. At I- Ik
E' Vlgltint went about on port tack and
K headed for the shore. It looked at first
K- as If she would cross Defender's bo,
K; but the new Het reahofT kept right on
Hp nd cro-sed tho hows of Vigilant, show-
H) ing a lead of at least five or six lengtns.
kT Dcfemler would not spill tarks with
F- Vigilant, but at 12140 went about on
H port tack and hetded west.
Ui Defender by this manoeuvre demnn-
Hr strated her ast superiority over Vlgl-
H lant In a fairly good breeze, where wlnd-
Hf ward work Is roncerned. 8he had
K' gained nearly two minutes on Vigilant
H rlnco tlw start, and, besides footing
B faster than the old champion, had
H,' easily beaten her out In the wtndnard
Hfii Capt.Barr evidently did not want to
ff' be handicapped by his hahy Jlbtopsall.
HWi for he hustled It In at 1215, as soon a
Htf, Vigilant had filled away nn port tack
KAl The racers wero then headed directlv
BjJT for the coast at Seabrlght, and as th"v
KuK came H was seen more clearly than
HfjY ever that Definder was slowly but
B; surely increasing her windward gains
K At 1230 the achts wero within three
B ; miles of tho bench, still on port tack,
K ' Defender was leading by fully an eighth
Ha , of a mile. In addition to her wide berth
KM- . to windward. "Vigilant seemed to be
Kl ! steadily losing ground, although tho
HE - wind held strong from the southwest.
E' Defender's Flno Wlndrrnrd Work.
HM , ; It was evident that Defender was do.
Hv ing even better than on her starboard
ff ', tack. The yachting sharps nodded their
E ,i, heads wisely, and said that Opt. Haft
Hi.. :. was now letting the public see somo of
He" the fine points of tho new model.
Hi' ,' The jachts were still heading Inshora
HE; at 12.4'. and Defender was seen to be
Hr; ', between halt and three-Quarters of a
Hfj mile ahead of Vigilant. She also had a
K. v big windward advantage.
Hj ' Defender was followed by all the
V steam flotilla, which had caught up with
Hr ,' the racers on tho long tack, and at 12 50,
Hi' ' when she was within three miles from
Hp : shore, they forgod ahead to tho south-
H fc'' ward is If to anticipate a starboard
Jif' tack. The wind seemed to bo going
H,; ! donn again, and the sky to the cast
Hr -, and south became overcast.
Hr. Both jachts hud slackened their speed
Wt, j and seemed to bo moving very slowly.
K, I If anything, this favored Defender, for
H p she was apparently Increasing her lead
Hr;. t Ml the time, nnd tint a the lM-glnnlug of
Hi ' the port tack had gained more thnn a
H. ; inlnutu over Vigilant.
Hf'. t? Tho jachts were nearly a mile apart.
K, The stakeboat had been sent ahead
H' ' and anchored about live miles ofT shore
Hr fium North Lung llrancli. The ut-
B.," . niosiihero was so clear that as tho laierx

B. $ boat at the outer mark, leaving It on
Bf C, the starboard side, and stalled on the
B?j homi stretch.
B4fc Vigilant rounded at tho mark at

WitS At the same time Defender broke out
BL'ffc her spinnaker to port. Bhu sinned to

I In fict the weather was Just what the
I Cup Committee has been hoping for. and
lihoipth tho result of the trial Is gener
I all) rcgirded an a foregone conclusion
In favor of Defender, there aro several
Important points which ct remain to
be tin ded In regard to the new Ilerte
shoff irod-d.
Tho must Important of these, accord
ng to Commodore Jamos D, Smith, Is
Defonlers ability to work In heavy
weather, Fho has eufllclently demon
strated her superiority to Vigilant as a
light weather boat, but she has never

had an opportunity to show what she
can do In thrash. ng against a heavy sea.
Hoth tho racing jachts lav In tho
Horseshoe, Just Inside the Hook last
n.f,ht, sut rounded by a fleet of schoon
ers, steam vacots and smaller craft. In
perfect readiness to go to the start this
morning Vigilant was never In better
racing trim tnan at present, and with
her new Herrcshoff mainsail Mr. Wll
lard and Sailing Mister liarr expected
greater things of the old champion than
ever.
Many jachtlng sharps believed that
with the Improvements that have been
niacin sinco the beginning of tho sea
son Vigilant can best Defender In a
strong blow. With a breeze like tint
o' cstcrd.w this Important question
could be qulckl) decided.
On the other hand. It comes from au
tho'ltatlvo sources that In tho previous
races with Vigilant, Defender has never
been allowed to show her best paces,
but has been held tn check In cverv race
In which she has sailed for the reacni
that her owners art not anxious to dis
close tho full strength of the new race"
until ."lie meets the Britisher In the
tlnal contrjt for the Cup. Tho Inter
est howove.. In tho trial races, which
negln to-day. Is much greater than was

Preparing; for the llnttlo.
At 3 o'clock everything was astir up
In the Horseshoe. Vigilant was the first
to prepare to get under vjy for the
starting rolnt.
At that hour sho had shaken out her
mainsail and sent up her clubtopsail,
whllo Defender, which lay half a mile
nearer tho Hook, had hoisted her Jib
and her crew were busy getting up tho
.mainsail,
I Off to windward a big fleet of fishing
boats dotted the surface of the bay with
tlieli whlto sails, as they skimmed about
In every direction Tho lofty sails of
the big single-stickers, reflecting the
bright sunlight, towered above the rest
of tho fleet like great mountains of
I snow,
I At 9 20 Vigilant, nfter setting her Jib,
slowly swung nround and started for
tho point on a broad reach, A few min
utes afterward, with her mainsail set
and her Jib In stops. Defender started
In the same direction under tow of her
tender, the Hattlo Palmer.
At that hour a fifteen knot breeze was
blowing. It seemed to have shifted a
little to tho south and was evidently
freshening up.
Vigilant passed Sandy Hook Point on
her way out to the lightship at 0.3S. Sho
was under mainsail, stay sail. Jib and
dubtopsall, and was footing very fast.
Defender had set a small clubtopsail
and followed along about a mile astern.
It was uncertain at this time whether
tho rat- would be started from the
Scotland or tho Sndy Hook lightships.
The chances wer- that If the wind con
tinued to shift to the south the start
would ba made from the outer mark.
Defender' Jib and Eta) sail vere set
soon after she passed the point, at 9,r,5,
nnd he cast off her tender. Doth yachts
