The Columbia Wat a Mile and a Half Ahend at One Time, But the Yachts Were Running Home Neck and Keck. Special to Uvbsino Hkrai.d. New York, Oct. &. Tho Columbia anil Shamrock raced again to-day for tlio Amer ica' cup, amid tho eamo enthusiasm that marked the event last Tuosday. Tho rate and conditions wore tho sumo as those on the day when the first race was declared oft" on account of neither yacht returning within the alloted time, the course being laid fifteen miles dead beforo tho wind and back again. Tho weather was hzy at tho start and the wind light, tho latter being accepted by tho Shamrock ndmircra as a favorablo omou fur their racer, but from tho general conditions there was a belief that both vessels would fail to get back on time. The Shamrock repeated her trick of last Tuesday and got over tho starting lino first. at 11:01.1. Tho Columbia followed tit 11:10.3, making a more favorablo start than she did n tho last race. Tho Columbia appeared to bo much better handled to day than she was on tho preceding occasion ami her backers appeared to have still greater confidence in her than at auy other time. At 11:21, with three knots covered, the yachts were apparently on even terms and the handling of both excited the thousands of spectators on tho accompanying Bteamboats and yachts. Tho Colombia I acting beautifully and at 11:40 sho appeared to be slightly ahead, Thcro was almost a dead calm prevailing and this again brought up visions of a fluke. Tho calm finally worked to tho Columbia's dis advantage and favored the Shamrock, and at 12:30, with tho wind beginning to blow about sis miles an hour, tho challenger was lead ing. Tho revival of tho wind, however, filled out tho Columbia's sails, and at 12: 11 she had attained a lead of half a mllo and was steadily increasing It. At one o'clock tho Yankee vessel had In created her lead to a mile, and was still goln at a distanco Increasing pace. It was looking very blue for tho Shamrock at 2:25, tho Columbia having increased her lead to a mile and a half. Tho fog had cleared and tho wind had shifted to the south It was blowing at the rate of seven miles an hour, but the outer stakeboat had not been reachod and hopes of the race being a success wero fast diminishing. At three o'clock tho Columbia had lost lior lead and tho yachts wero neck and neck. They continued in this order, and at 3:15 were seven miles from the finish Hue. At that time It did not look as if the yachts could finish within tho timo allowed. At 4 o'clock a message was recoived at tho Herald office that tho race was declared off on account of tho time limit expiring. FRIGHTFUL PIS ASTER.
