The Columbia Wins Two Seats and
the BhaWrdck Losos Her Top
mast
NEW YORK Oct 10 Hail to
Columbia Victory is hern Nine
minutes and forty seven Seconds
ahead of the challenger at the
outer mark and ten minutes and
fourteen seconds in the lead at
I he finish There Is the record for
the first race that old almost
obsolete one of fifteen miles to
windward or to leowaid which
laid seemed us though it would
never be run
NEW YORK Oct 17 Ano
ther victory for Columbia But
public interest Will hardly sur
vive another triumph dfvttie sort
It lapsed Avith the fall of the chal
lengers topmast and though a
part of the excursion licet follow
ed the Columbia in her1 solitary
ramble around the triangular
course there were few to grow en
thusiastic over a victory which
accident had rendered certain
Nor was there any applause for
the Columbia When after that
mishap to the Shamrock the de
fender continued upon iter course
Magnificent bht it is not war
was a soldiers comment on Ba
laklava Mr Iselin was plainly
within his rights when he round
ed out the run and claimed the
victory for Sir Thomas Lipton is
signatory that in case of accident
to cither yacht the other shall
continue on her course and be
credited with a race should she
finish There Is a deep seated in
stinct which protests against the
acceptance of victory through the
if weakness of a piece
ot rigging worn uy at rival craft
The hope aviis freely expressed
that the Columbia would not
claim and would not tuke her
rights But when it was seen
that there was no intent of relin
quishing the advantage gained
there was a fervant hope and ne
freely and frequently expressed
that the wind would die out and
thus prevent the winning of a
i ace through the mishap to a ri
val
To every one who went out the
disappointment Was keen A
er yachting day could hardly be
imagined Moreover it was the
sort of day that the Shamrock
people have been wishing for a
fresh wind blowing true and a
lively sea ranuirtg before it The
nice itself over the triangular
course was another feature which
attracted many All previous ef
forts in this series have been fif
teen miles to the windward or lee
ward route but the course of to
day wus to be over the triangular
run and in the fresh winds and
fumbling seas the contest promis
ed to be as thrilling as any ever
witnessed in these waters
In pare gayety of spirit the ex
cursionists cheered and shouted
and waved handkerchiefs and
hats when the two racers with
boom and spar buckling to the
strain of swollen canvas went
storming across the starting line
A more animated yachting
turc was never Witnessed thai
that presented by- these splendid
yachts dashing along the coarse
the foam dancing in brilliant rain
bows while to leeward the water
swept in glassy curves from the
clear knife like stems Under
mainsail club topsail jib baby
jib and staysails the two clipped
it along both pointing high and
footing so fast that some of the
excursion boats liitd difficulty in
keeping pace But all set out in
pursuit of the winged racers and
till were rejoicing in the prospect
of a glorious struggle when hopes
were dashed by the accidenr to
the Shamrock She was then the
focus for allyi for to the many
it seemed Unit sheas outfooting
the cup defender and it appeared
also that she had readied out far
enough to cross Ihe Columbias
bow A number were expecting
that she woulcVnttempt that man
euver and were watching the chal
lenger with intense interest when
a cry of dismay arose Bending
to the weight tl llo club topsail
ihe Shamrocks lopbiast suddenly
snapped and Itll precipitating
the sails spar Into a mass of
wreckage which suspended by its
wire rigging swung to and fro
viith the movement of the yacht
ti A fcM iiHr aAni
vrtr
The disabled cutter was
promptly headed into the wind
and efforts were quickly made to
seouro the splintered ninst and
bagging topsail before it had
done any injury to the mninsnij
The Erin with Sir Thomas Lip
ton on board promptly stood tow
ard her crippled consort at the
same time making signals to the
Shamrocks tender the tugboat
Lawrence That vessel headed
for the crippled yacht and as soon
as the wreckage had been secured
n low line was made fast and the
two were headed back to port The
Erin followed and as the proces
sion moved silently by the excur
sion fleet opened up its whistles
and all the passengers cheered
the unfortunate vessel and her
plucky owner The Erin ranged
near to the Shamrock and Sir
Thomas Lipton spoke encourag
ingly to Captain Hogarth who
seemed to feel ihe accident very
keenly
To newspaper men Captain
Hogarth would not attempt any
explanation All that he cared to
say was that he was glad the brok
en mast had not come down on
deck and that he was pleased no
one was injured
Apparently afraid that she
would meet with a similar mis
hap the skipper of the Columbia
immediately after the breaking of
the Shamrocks topmast ordered
her baby jib taken in
The Columbia however made
a fine race of it pluckily holding
on to her club topsail throughout
and setting her balloon jib in the
final reach for home Her time
was little short of marvelous She
covered the course in 51 hours y7
minutes the beat ten miles to
windward in 1 hour 89 minutes 11
seconds the reach to the second
mark in 53 minutes HO seconds
nnd the last leg in 1 hour 3 min
utes CO seconds As she crossed
the finish line she let go her head
sails and one of the Deer Isle sail
ors treated the spectators to an
exhibition of daring as he climb
ed out over the peak halliards
eighty feet in the air to loose the
club topsail
Mr Iselin when seen after the
Columbia had run her race and
reached her moorings said that
he much regretted the accident
Sir Thomas Lipton declared em
phatically that the Columbia was
entitled to the race and that Mr
Ielin had a perfect right to claim
it The two defeats have not dis
couraged him however He lias
another chance and he hopes to
make that one count The Sham
rock was towed to Erie Basin
where necessary repairs will be
made After the new topmast has
been put m place the vessel will
be remeasured and will be ready
for the contest Thursday That is
to be the old fifteen miles to wind
ward or leeward and back and if
tne Columbia wins the series will
have been completed without giv
ing the Shamrock an opportunity
to test her merits in her favorite
point of sailing over a triangular
course
