Whilo going out, tho big North Oermati I.loyder ncutschlnnd, outward bound to Cherbourg, went through the edge of tho excursion craft half a mllo to tho southward. Tho fleet seemed an chored, so fast It went, looking like a big swiftly moving summer hotel. In twenty minutes It was hull down on tho horizon. Hurry to Keep I p. As the yachts approached the outer mark a stream of signal Hags were ret on the revenue cutter Clrcaham, the flagship of tho patrol fleet, Instructing them In tho univer sal language of tho sen to change direction by the right flank. The patrol bonts swung ii round the line to tho westward and charged down on the excursion fleet. Tho latter with bells clanging In the engine rooms for more speed, turned tall and the whole fleet rushed madly to leeward of the last lei: of the course. Leaving tho llri:t maik on tho starboard hand the racers gyhrd over their hie booms nnd went careening for tho second mark, Columbia gnlnlng slowly but surely. They had covorod the first ten miles In n little over fifty minutes. When they swung around tho second btake they took in their baby Jib topsails for the beat home. Both yachts heeled until their undcrbodles were lifted high over tho water and their lee ralls dipped a foot Into tho tea. A few minutes after rounding the second mark It was apparent that. Columbia was footing faster and pointing higher. It went through Shamrock's lee like a quarter horse, Snretnenlar Finish. The rush of the leviathans on the final tack was magnificent.

As It swept ncross tho finish the din was soul-dcstroylng. Whistles split tho enr and steam sirens walled, drowning tho crashns of tho bands and the cheers of tho people. The concert of sound was terrific. Until the gallant Shamrock, beaten hut not disgraced, crossed n minute and eighteen seconds later whis tles and sirens wero kept going.

"Captain "Hob" Wrlnge, who sailed Sham rock I In tho race against Columbia In 1S9, said: "Tho great surprlso to mo was tho wonderful windward work of Columbia.

Tho towing out of tho racers from their anchorage to tbo starting lino wan devoid of Interest. There wns no heavy swell to cause skippers nnxlcty about their bob stays. Thus It was that Shamrock set the largest of Its club topsails, and nothing daunted, Columbia followed suit When tho preparatory gun was fired It was clearly evident that Oolumbln cared little for the start, which was made to tbo leeward on a closo reach, tho triangular courso offering no beneflt whatever to the craft first awav. Thero was no true battle for position. The committee boat Navigator dropped anchor in Its usual place, south of the lightship, at 10:30 and at that time both yachts. In tow tindor bare poles, hended un Into tho wind and hoisted mainsails; their headsalls were already In stops. Shamrock was first to cast loose from Its tug, and n moment later Its headsalls wero broken nut from their stops and It made a clean run for the lightship. Columbia, which had been hugging tho easterly end of the line eased off sheets and stood for the mark. Signals were hoisted from tho committee boat that the courso would be triangular, which meant that thero. would he two closo teaches and one dead beat to windward for home. Their Oeinwny. Tho yachts heeled to a scupper breeze when the preparatory gun was flred at 10:15. Columbia, far to the eastward, stood down beforo tho wind for the line; menn whlle Shamrock was circling around the lightship. Hcfore tho warning gun was flred, ten minutes after tho preparatory signal, Columbia was ahead And not want ing to cross the line too early, luffed up with Its head sails shaking until It almost stood still. This put Shamrock In the bet ter position, and veering close round, It crossed the lino almost with the gun, while Columbia elected to cross considerably moro than one minute behind. Many ex perts thought that Columbia would bo handicapped, but Harr was on the alert nnd sent It across In time to snvo himself. With tho wind forward nn the port beam, and with a tiny Jib topsail set on Shamrock and n much larger and better pulling sail on Columbia, the yachts started out. on the first leg ot the triangle. During the first few minutes It was impossible to say whether Columbia was gaining or not. In the gusts of wind It seemed to heel over less than tho challenger and also appeared to steer a slightly higher course. Fust Time Promised. Tho wind, though heading true from north-northwest, varied in violence. Ooca slonally n heavy squall would strlko ono of tho racers, causing It to heel, but taking the mean of the puffs, neither could be snld to have been moro favored, It soon became moro apparent that tho raco was to ho nailed In very quick time. Tho gain of Columbia, which the turn of tho first mark proved it had made, was almost Imperceptible. Townrd the mark tho wind freshened. Columhla, with a lesser sail spread, seemed to stand stlffcr than Its rival, hut thero was little to choose between them. They smothered along toward tho mark and whon they rounded It Columbia had gained only twenty-two sec onds. Tho gybo on both craft was well done. Under tho tame sail as they started they both Htood for tho second mark. The wind piped stronger and In tho strongest ot the puffs Shamrock hnd to luff n little to easo Its force In tho breeze. Columbia, on tho contrary, was allowed to feel the full powor of every squall, nevor being eased, and It was this that helped It ahead. In spite of the larger sallspread of Its an tngonlst it wns never left behind, but kept up with the challenger. Ilnrr'a Free Toot Ira. It became npparont by the tlmo Columbia hnd sailed over ono-half of the second leg that It had saved Its time and was, barring accidents, a winner. Its skipper, Instead ot uuratug it through the squalls, lot It feel tho strength of them, while Sham rock's larger spread of sail caused It to mako Imperative luffs, or else carry away something. In a reaching breczo close and flnor sailing perhaps was never seen There wore frequent occasions when tho collapse of a topmast seemed almost duo Hut everything hung on. Now that the second mark was In sight and nt 12:45 Jib topsails wero doused on bdth sachts and they luffed round It, Sham rock In the lead, but the watches showlne Columbia's gain on this leg to be thirty seconds. It was now n dead bent to wind ward to tho finish line. Columbia was now the leading craft from tho mathematical point of ylow. It had gained on both legs and had Its tlmo al lowapce of forty-throe seconds to help It Thus, If It could hold Its own to the finish lino, the raco was secured, Torn for the Flnlah. In rounding the mark the boats split tacks, Shamrock etandlng on the starboard tncl: for a few hundred yards.

At 1:20 both yachts went on tho port tack, standing toward the Long Island shore. Thero was llttto or no difference between them In this board. At 1:67 both ent on the starboard tack for tho finish line. Then came tho biggest puff of all.

(Now York World Ca blegram Special Telegram.) It Is impos- Ibla to convey nn adequate notion of tho disappointment nnd chagrin occasioned by Shamrock's dofeat today. Absolute confidence existed that In what was be lieved to bo Shamrock wenther victory wns certain to be strengthened by Shamrock's pparent superiority nt tho opening of the race. This confidence whs ruthletsty dashed by Columbia's Inexplicable overhauling of ho challenger, and tho crowds which had been waiting to acclaim n Hrltlsh victory teadlly thinned nway until, when tho re sult was declared, few remained. Hope of Llpton's winning tho cup now has com pletely vanished and with It all Interest In the strtigglo. LONDON, Oct. 3.-10:10 p. m. Tho ox- ent of Orent Rrltaln'x disappointment nt the defeat today of Shamrock II fnn bo thoroughly appreciated only by thot who saw tho thousands ot spectators lining tbo Embankment. Almost to a man they were expectant of u victory. Tho early editions of tho nftcrnoou newspapers announcing that It was Shamrock II's wenther had keyed up hopes here almost to a pitch of certainty, and mauy people entertained the Idea that the depression of South African affairs might be relieved byrtlio victory of Shamrock II. The hitter's lead in tho early part ot tho raco so strengthened this Impression that ondon threatened a repetition ot Mafeklng night. The crowds greeted the green lights on the towers nnd on the launched which paraded tho Thames with wild delight. Hut Columbia's red slowly crept up, nnd motor cars with meguphoncs daubed up and down tho embankment proclaiming Columbia's ead. The yachts In tho Thames reversed tho poslllon of their lights and those on tho signal towers wero changed. Tho crowds stood mute, awaiting the final mes sages. America's cup" dinners wero advertised nt tho Embankment hotels, and overlooking the river many fashlnnnbt" people dined, watching the moving lights until red from nil sides was flashed out. "Columbia wins" was shouted through the hotel corridors and tho throngs dispersed. A curious feature of the race was the an nouncement In London over two minutes before It' actually occurred off Sandy Hook. This was due to a news agency message. timed Sandy Hook, 2:06 p. m.. saying that Columbia had won. followed by others giv ing alleged details, all bearing times pre vious to the otllclal nnd unofficial records of' the yachts crossing the line. Router's Telegram company received the first gen uine meesnge announcing the result. For Hrltlshcrs all renl Interest has de parted from tho International yncht races. Their only desire is to get tho matter ended. "If wo are to be thrashed again," ays tho Dally Chronicle, "we had rather take our gruel at once with nil the good humor at our command." In short, the editorials publlstd this morning do not make tho slightest attempt to explain the defent. They frankly admit that Shamrock II was beaten In Its own weather nnd under conditions most favor- ablo to It and they congrufulnte America upon being possessed of tho better boat. "As a matter of fact," remarks tho Dally Graphic, "on none of the former occasions when tho boats havo met has Shamrock II beon so far In front of Columbia ns to havo Its time allowance In hand." Tho Dally Mali says: "Columbia has demonstrated Its superiority on nil points of sailing." Tho Standard says: "Apparently there was nothing to choose between the con tending captains nnd the men In point of Judgment and smartness, therefore the re sult was decided by the Intrinsic capa bilities of tho yachts. Shamrock Is a very flno boat, but not quite enough for tho do fender. Vet the Interval between them wus not great enough for despair."
