EASY FOR CONSnTOTION h Second Race, the Nw Taoht Ii Again Victorious. tEST OF IT8 KINO EVER BUILT. Yesterday's Contest the Most Remark able of All Race for America's Cup Columbia end Independence Defeated, but net Dlemayed. Bateman'a Point, Newport. R. L. Jsly 9 - The race yesterday between the HcrreshoC yachts, Coostltutloa aad. Columbia, and the Orowlaahleli yarht Independence was won baadlly by the Constitution, which finished at 4.14. beating the Columbia over three Biles and the Independence nins and ae-half mile. Of all the conquests la the history of the renowned raess for ths Ameri ca' cup that of yeaterday Is the most remarkable. The Constitution prored herself, the beat light weather craft of thla generation. Volunteer. Vigilant, ; Defender and Columbia bare In the i past achloved wonderful and glorious tbinKB In the cauee of defending the cup, hut the new Bristol sloop's work j yesterday capped the climax and es- tablishod her as a record breaker In light airs. She has accomplished what yachtsmen conaldered Impossible In so summarily beating the Columbia, while her performance has put the In dependence entirely out of the running In conditions like those of yesterday. What her showing may be in heavy weather Is Htlll a matter of conjecture, as It Is with the Independence, but the experts are now almost ready to ac cept any achievement of the Constitu tion without surprise. Mention should be made of the valiant efforts the old ship Columbia made to escape from the hoodoo of greater merit on the part of the Con stitution. The brave and determined efforts of P. D. Morgan, the plucky amateur Hnrr, the able skipper and a crew wrhnse like can never be sur passed, who kept up the great light to the finish and In the smart handling of the sails never loBt a point, were all recognized by appreciative spectators. That she lost was owing to the same reason that Defender lost the contest. She was outclassed as a veasel. REFUSE WELSH'S OFFER. Reading Railway Shop Handa Resolvs to Stay Out. Reading. Pa., July 9.
