THK NEW BOAT CAINS STEADILY, Th ? I'ef.nder pulled away from her ?*.,mpetilors with every puff of wind. Before the Aral les wa.?? half Bailed the vigilant bad moved by th< Jubilee, and the Volunteer had fallen back to fur?: ? place. At 1:13:80 tbe Defender made bei tack and stood away to the southwest, preparatory t.. going about the stak? buoy, It looked aa it the Defender people bad repeated til? th?.? mad? .? the .ace of Saturday, July 20, nit' Bandy Hooai, anu the boat was going t ? ? ? t,. mark by half a mil.?. ?lust bere th.

The Volunteer reached th?? tutu at 1 :.'?:.4".. The Bret of the schooners to make the Hl.vk Island ? urn waa the Lasca She got around at 1:15. The Emerald was the second sci about, thirty sc.-.mds behind the Lasca ?G?????? BEFOR8 THK WIND. The run before the win i of eighteen mile-? up to a stake buoy two miles southwest oy south from West Island Light seemed only t.. demon? strate more clearly the Defender's superiority. Th?? br.eze freshened decidedly and many st? am vessel? rut across to be first to tbe West island Light turn and see the yachts come ab ut and S ' ? th?' reach for the finish line. The .1 to the deiif/ht of the Boat m ipectatora, apfx ir? 1 t?. be ?omlng up ?>? the Vigilant, but the Volun? teer fell away till she war? almost lost to view. ?? l:S5 the Defender got tn her iipht sails, pre? paratory to gybins and turning tl?,?? buoy, The ! . ? Jlbtopaall came away readily. She gybed over at G.:41':4">. At 3:44:10 the Defender made the Turn. She was a traitant sij-'ht. in.l??? .1. ns sh?? shot, oloso haubd. on the put tack, up by the mark to begin the six-mil" rea? h for home. It was just at this moment that the Vigilant took In her balloon Jlbtopaall. THK DEFENDER'? OAFF BREAKS. Every eye was intent on the Defender, and every man was speculating on h..w much she would come in ahead of the Vigilant, when ? crack and a crash were beard distinctly on all the boats near at hand. A cry went up as the 11- f? mi? 1 '"a gaff waa se. ? to break In two In th.? middle, and ban? down. Deapite the acci? dent, the Defend-r kept on lier course, nnd she was KoitiK s?? rapidi.?.? that the st-am-rs that wanted to come alongside her had to put on full steam to do |,. The wind freshened, and tl sea ran still higher, and the I ?.'fender d no Blgna of giving up. It was 3:55:45 when the Vigilant turned th? Weet Island stake buoy and came ah..ut for i: Brenton'a Reef leg. Bhe was 11 minutes and M seconds behind the Defender. THE DEFENDER OUT OF THE RACE. ? few minutea later the Defender definitely Rave up the contest, and accepted the tow of tr New-Tork Yacht Club's opiBctal tug. Ihe Oaspee, It began to rain slightly as th? Vigi? lan I .-ame on to the finish, and the Defender was t .wed up v. Bristol. Little can be said of ihe last six miles of rhe race, The wind was ? . : the ? ?art bow, and, come as she would, the Jubilee gained steadily or. tbe Vigilant. Still, it was ; foregone conclusion that there was an . cup for Qeoi ?.?? <; mid. The Sylvia put herecll s 1 as t 1 make a finish line betwe.-n h.-r at. 1 the lightship. Again the whistles and the cannon sounded a? the Vigilant ame ? -. to th.? line In her old-time style. It was 4 :S8:40, unofficial time, as al edit.
