dd to be holding its own. the advantage
if any, being with the Shamrock.
The wind held through at about ten
knots and the race was ”developing into
aheautiful windward contest. There0
seemed little advantage on either side.
They were both sailing magnificently,
the Columbia having worked a little to
windward but intern of the British
boat. Captain Sycamore was alive to
the situation, wever. and seemed to
be working his at slowly from under
the Columbia's ice.
The boats held torthe port tack stand-
ing off shore, and {at 12:25 they were
pretty near on even terms. The Colum-
bia was still to windward, but probably
150 yards astern of the British boat.
The outer mark was then not more
than six miles away, and the battle hull
reached an exciting stage. Both cap-
tains were giving a wonderful exhibi-
tion of seamanshlp. and under the con-
ditions prevailing, it looked as if the
1111111110111 error in‘indgment or seamali-
ship would be costly.
Ten minutes later the outer mark was
in sight and Barr and Sycamore were
c.1ch doing his best. The wind was
eleven knots.
At 12: 45 o’clock both boats were on
the starboard tack. having gone about
at 12:32. ,There was no perceptible
change in their position. the Sham-
rock had the windward and was hold-
ing her own, while Columbia was doing
her best, bllt unable to get any substan-
tial gain.
At 12: 59, after two hours of sailing.
the Shamrock again went about on the
port tack, followed élosely by the Am-
erican boat. The Columbia got the
windward berth. but was astern. They
held this tack for three quarters of an
hour in a neck and neck race. The
boats were not a hundred yards apart.
but. the Shamrock maintained her lead
clean through to the. outer mark.
They held the port tack to the outer
mark, the greed yachts smothering
along toward the turn in a royal race.
But the Shamrock had the right berth
and Captain Sycamore swung her
around the stake boat a little more than
half a minute ahead of the Columbia.
The American was. by estimated time.
just folly-six seconds behind her cp-
poueut. Both yachts squared away for
home. running before the wind and
seven minutes after the turn both
broke out their spinnakers. the Sham-
rock bring a little behind the American
in doing so.
The official time of turning the outer
mark. as given, by the Marconi wireless
telegrapliy. was:
Shamrock 1: 25112.
Columbia. 1: 25: 53.
it will thus be seen that the Sham-
look was in actual sailing time 39 scc~
onds ahead of Columbia as she had
crossed the starting line two seconds
ahead of her, but this elapsed time is
more. than offset by the forty-six sec—
onds of handicap which the Ulster
yacht is compelled to give under the
rules to the Columbia. because of the
ilcasuremeni, And so it, was necessary
that the Shamrock shduld gain on the
Columbia seven seconds between the
turning boat and the finish, in order to
establish a tie.
Off to the eastward the sky was
quite clear. bllt in the. southwest it was
dark and lowering.
The Columbia gained steadily in
"spite of every effort of the Shamrock
to regain her lost advantage.
Both skippers tried every known
means to secure an advantage and at
times changed the stations of the
crews to different parts of the hart.
But try as he would. the British 11k p-
091 could not overtake his flying rival
and little by little Columbia reached
out and at 2: 81 she had a full three
lengths of clear waiter between her
stern and the bow of her pursuor.
The moors were rapidly nearing the
'iinish and some of the excursion am

"Did you have any further conversa-
