MIDDLED URG POST. TORT FOR RELIANCE' I Cup Defender Proves Herself the ' Fastest Yacht Ever Built. DEFEATS SHAMROCK 7 MINUTES' The Challenger Mi-'e a Came Tight, But Rellaic Outsailed Her On Every Point In a Twelve-Knot Breeze. New Tork. Aug. 24. In a tplendld 11 to IS knot breeie, over a windward and leward cour of 30 mllea, the gal- wristlet, atrene, bands aad the voice f the unnumbered thousands en the excursion fleet swelled Into a vast ononis. Turning for home, her splnnaXcr boom poised along the mast like a lance In rent, fell to port and the M iaII buret out like a cloud, while at the same moment her enormous bal loon Jlh topnail bellied out forward. The mrt work of the Yankee cheer ed the crowdK, but a moment after ward there was dismay, when the guy which held the spinnaker pole parted or was carried away. The enormous sail soared aloft and tumbled over the Jib topsail slay, collapsing like an empty mealsack. But the trouble was soon remedied, and then, with her sails setting like plaster, the stately yacht sped homeward before the following wind like a scared deer. The fleet remained to salute the Shamrock as she rounded, and then, with a Jingle of belle In the engine rooms, scampered away for the finlth Hue to be In at the death. In setting her balloon Jib the Sham rock encountered another piece of bad luck. The topsail would not break out and hung for some minutes like a lluip rag. When both had been squared away for home it was seen that Reli ance was making a runaway race of it 'With her crew aft to keep her head up she skimmed along the surface of the water like a pill with outstretched pinion, leaving the Shamrock farther and farther astern. The pace was so fast that many of the tugs and not a few of the steam yachts were left be hind. The scene at the finish was soul stlrrinc. Under her towering cloud of canvas, rolling rythmlcally In the swell, the Reliance bounded across the viewless finish like a queqn. The ex cursion boats gathered there fairly awakened the echoes with the terriCr din which they let loose. Such pande monium can only be heard w-hen an American yacht is victorious In s race.
