4 Shamrock Defeats the Britannia* . Blue Ribbon Pace Won by Shade On. Tod Sloan Suspended. THE SHAMROCK EASILY BEATS THE BRITANNIA Cup Challenger Is Very Fast. — — TRIAL RACE ON THE SOLENT — ♦• — NEW YACHT IN FRONT FROM THE START. English Experts Greatly Pleased With Her Performance and Confident of Victory Over the Columbia. * Special Dispatch to The Call. SOUTHAMPTON. July I*.— There was much excitement on the Solent to-day over the Britannia-Shamrock race. From early morning crowds watched the prep arations mi board both yachts, while the whole fleet from Southampton, Cowes and other points made for Ryde. The scene at Ryde pier was most ani mated. Long before the star! crowds of fashionable visitors had arrived. The Shamrock was towed from Southampton, the Erin following with Thomas tiipton and a distinguished company. The weath er was hot and slightly hazy, with a slight southeast breeze which promised to last through the day. The course was .from the Ryde pierhead eastward around the Nab lightship, leaving it on' the star board hand, then back past Cowes to a ' buoy on the Solent bank, rounding the buoy on zhe starboard and finishing at Cowes, opposite the Royal Yacht Squad ron's house. It was about forty miles long. The Prince of Wales arrived at Southampton at 11 o'clock, wearing a yachting suit, and boarded the Britannia from the yacht Fire Queen, on board of which he left Southampton. The yachts started punctually at 12 o'clock, with a fresh southeast breeze blowing. As the starting gun boomed the '■ Britannia Immediate crossed- the Sham rock, the latter following in a way to give the impression that she. had no objection to giving the Britannia a slight lead. The latter, however, did not long maintain tiie advantage. It v. as a dead heat to wind ward, and little distance was covered be fore the Shamrock, whic.i started on the short leg to port, overhauled her, and on the following long leg to starboard the Shamrock forged ahead rapidly. It was at once noticed that she was sailing near ly half a point rearer the Wind than the Britannia. The Shamrock was carrying her mainsail, jib-head-.) topsail, jib and fore sail. The Britannia carried the same can vas, but In addition her club topsail. The Shamrock was a half-mile ahead passing Warner. Hogarth was at the helm of the challenger. The boat held up admirably and there was not a drop of water on deck. She proved extremely quick In putting about, taking only lOU seconds. On rounding the Nab lightship both yachts set their spinnakers for the run back. The only mishap of the day was that when the* Shamrock's sail began to fill the top caught in the cross-trees. The huge canvas flopped flat and then sud denly burst like a balloon and a big rent became visible in the upper part, where a long strip had been torn out, leaving a hole big enough for a man to crawl through. The Shamrock's speed naturally suffered somewhat from this accident. Both boats soon set their " topsails and later their balloon foresails. The yachts jibed to port near Ryde. They were then traveling at such a rate that the press boat, going a speed of eleven knots, was unable to keep pace with the Shamrock, though the wind lightened considerably after leaving Nab lightship. The Britan nia appeared to be holding her own for a short spell before she reached Ryde, but the Shamrock again crept slowly ahead, widening the gap. The scene at this time was an inspiring one. Both yachts, under a cloud of can vas, were gliding on even keels. The wind freshened after passing Cowes and both boats took In their spinnakers a: 1 stalled on 'the broad reach to the-. Solent buoy. After jibing around they reached back, finishing with a short tack to make the home mark. Experts were satisfied that the Sham rock will be able to give a good account of herself in the contest for the America's cup. The Shamrock passed Warner at 12:36:13 and the Britannia at 12:43 18. The Sham rock rounded the Nab lightship at 1:00:25 and the Britannia at 1:00:20. The Sham rock passed Ryde. pier tit 1:54:30 and the Britannia at 2:02:30. The yachts passed the Royal Yacht squadron's house going westward, the Shamrock at 2:40:27 and the Britannia at 2:51:00. The Shamrock ar rived at the finish line at 3:46:00. The Britannia finished the course thirteen minutes hind the challenger for the America's cup. Both yachts were admirably handled, but the Shamrock had a clear advantage throughout. She gained on every tack to windward. The corrected times at the finish were: Shamrock. 3:43:50; Britannia, 4:00:15. The times of passing the buoy on the Solent bank were: Shamrock, 3:15:45; Britannia 3:25:04. -: FASTEST OF BRITISH YACHTS. — >— The Shamrock Does Not Show Her Actual; Speed. COWES, Isle of W*ght, July 18.— On the actual difference in- the times of the Shamrock and Britannia at the various points and the times* at the finish of to day's races it does hot appear that the Shamrock has a gre(_t chance to win the America's cup. Those signs, however, may be deceptive. 1/ was the opinion of those who closely witched the race from the steamer following the yachts that the Shamrock was never pushed to her ut most In to-day's trlaj, and that Mr. Fife, the designer of the; yacht, who practi cally engineered the| contest on behalf of Sir Thomas l_ipton. merely desired *.> as certain whether the Shamrock could show the Britannia a cle_.n pair of heels. He had no desire, he slid, to let everybody into the secret of th* actual merit or best speed of the challenger. Confirmation of th ' foregoing opinion Is found In the fact that while the Britan nia carried every possible stitch of can vas, the Shamrock wias running before the wind from the Nab. lightship to the So lent bank buoy, and only her Jib headed with the topsail instead of the club top- Sail, like the Britannia, and that on the broad reach home from the Solent buoy the Shamrock lowered her jib topsail, which would, have been of material as sistance had her skipper really wished to show her at her bes_. Mr. Fife and Mr. Jamison were on board the Shamrock, but Sir Thomas Lip ton followed on board the Erin, which, with a few yachts and one solitary but Pears' was the first maker of sticks of soap for shav- ing. Pears' Soap es- tablished over ioo years. crowded excursion steamer, escorted the racers around the course. The fresh breeze that was blowing at the start dropped somewhat, but revived sufficiently to bring the racers home at a spanking pace and proved an excellent wind from the racing point of view, as it. enabled the cracks to be tested as to three points, namely—beating to wind ward, running and reaching. The Sham rock showed to the best advantage beat ing to windward, and gained six min utes on the Britannia on the eight miles beat to the Nab lightship from the start. although beating is considered one of the Britannia's strong points. On the run back to ('owes the Shamrock's gain was less perceptible, but she did not set her club topsail, and so did not do her best. On the reach home the Shamrock did bet ter and could evidently have done the distance in much shorter time if she had been put on her mettle. The Shamrock is decidedly the fastest boat ever launched in these waters. No other craft ever gave the Britannia such a beating on a fair sailing trial. There was considerable maneuvering of the yachts before the start, and the opinion was freely expressed that the Shamrock did not appear to be so well bandied as the Britannia, which was in the hands of the veteran Carter, who skippered her successfully against the Vigilant in ISM. The Britannia was sailed beautifully and excited general admiration among the Im mense crowds of fashionable people who witnessed the return of the boats from every point of vantage.

' :;■ ' : , The question as to the number of trials to be allowed In the hammer-throwing and long; jump was the occasion of con siderable discussion, the English rule be ing four trials each and the American rule six trials. A compromise will be reached on six tries for hammer and five tries for jump. for the high jump the usual cus tom of both sides is three trials at each bar. Runs under the bar do not count as tries. formation gathered at ajl the training quarters gives promise of close contests, especially in the 100-yard hurdles, the quarter-mile and the long jump. The ques tion of selecting a mate for C. D. Daly, Harvard, for the long jump will be de cided between J. T. Harrington of Har vard, Morse of Yale and Roche of Har vard to-morrow. G. O.

Big Events in the World of Sport MIDDLE WEIGHT BOXERS WHO WILL DON FIVE-OUNCE GLOVES. GEORGE GREEN. GEORGE GREEN and Charley finff will be the stars of the boxing exhibition of the National Athletic Club to be held to-morrow night in the arena at Woodward's Pavilion. It is the first bout in some months that seems to promise the class of sport which local followers of the game enjoy. Both men are clever boxers and clean hitters, with the strength of heavy-weights. Goff gained many followers through his meeting with Jim Franey recently, in which he made a brilliant showing. Franey did not use his aggressiveness with good judgment, and his gallop was brought to a sudden stop by his opponent. In Green the victor of the last fight will flnd a more dangerous adversary. There is not a move in the game with which he is not familiar. That the sporting fraternity has confidence in him is evidenced by the fact that he has been installed a warm favorite in the betting. At Harry Corbett's last night the wagering was brisk, the prevailing odds being 10 to 7. On the preliminary bout between Jeffords and Jones the betting was at evens.

Coney, the well backed favorite*, made a splendid appearance on the track and kept near the front all through the race, except in the second heat, when be went Into the air badly when passed by Shade On, although he had led the field easily for three-quarters of a mile. During the; scoring for the first heat he reared and collided with Fire Gilt, a secondary fa vorlte,- overturning both sulkies, but the i horses and drivers escaped injury. Coney was a very- easy winner of the first heat, and but for Shad.- On's spurt ' and Coney's nervousness the second would j have been a similar procession. Maude Emperor made a strong play for the third heat, but she broke in the homestretch ! during a rush by Shade On, Carmelita and Coney, who finished in that order. Shade On was whipped all the way down the stretch in the last heat. Coney had led neariv all the way, but Shade On got under the wire barely a neck ahead of the California gelding.

Neel is looked upon as almost a sure winner in the game with Collins, as the latter has not this year been putting up any such game as Neel has played throughout the tournament. • The game between Neel and Allen to day was long and hard fought, some of the sets running up to twelve and four teen before a winner was shown.
