EASILY OVERHAULING AND PASSING THE PURITAN— SHOWING HER SUPERIORITY IN 4 LIGHT WIND 48 WELL AS IN 4 GOOD RACING ERERZE—THE CUP 18 SAPE WITH HER, SAYS NEILS OLSEN. A telegram to the New York Sun trom Newport, August 4, says: The day opened unpropitiously for the 41-mile run of the fleet of the New York Yacht Club to this port. The breeze was gentle from east-northeast. The Electra steamed out ahead of the slowly moving fleet, and anchored south of Seaflower Beacon at 9:37, and fired the starting gun. The little sloop Espirito was the first boat timed. Owing to the length of the start- ing line, which extended from the shore nearly & mile out to the Seaflower Beacon, there was some dimiculty tn distinguishing the yachts, The Purl- tan was the first of the giants to approach the line, She carried club topsail, jib, and forestay- sail. Her mainsail was apparently a new one, and fit her snugly. The Volunteer, which was originally half a mile astern of the Puritan, drew upon her as though she had an invisible tow. Everybody wondered at her marvelous speed 4n such light wind. All the pleturesquely mingled Yachts were on thé port tack, and probably were @oing good work, but nobody noticed it, as all were absorbed in the performance of the Volun- teer. The Puritan crossed the line at 9:46:59. The Volunteer followed, having gotten the windward wuge on Mr. Forbes’ darling nine seconds later and set her jibtopsail. Its effect was immediately noticeable, “She passed to windward of the Puri- tan as swiftly asa crack propeller might go by a ferryboat. A waggish adinirer of the steel craft asked why the tan had anchored. Mr. Forbes ‘shook out the brave sloop’s jibtopsail at 9:48, hop- to redeem some of his lost ground, but the Volunteer steadily widened the gap. Meanwhile the Mayflower, Atlantic, Titania, and Gracie were struggling to’ get out’ or the Chinese puzzle of yachts, battling for the line against tide and wind, A mile or more from the flagship the wind was merely a light air. At 10 o’clock it died out completely. Ten minutes later sails wrinkled and flapped and masts assumed the perpendicular. ‘The rest of the fleet struggled lazily across the line, ‘The sun came out and added to the discomfort of the calm, Then a fair breeze from east southeast imparted motion to the fleet. The tide was favor- able at midday, and the breeze then freshened a bit. The Puritan in some way, probably by keep- ing out of the tide and getting the breeze first, was lessening the space between herself and the Vol- unteer, This did not last long, however, The Volunteer tacked and crossed her bows at 12:19, and steadily increased her advantage. The wind continued light from the east-southeast. Of Watch Hill, Which was dotted with spectators, the Volunteer Was nearly a mile ahead of the Puritan, The lovely leader Went about on the starboard tack at 4:34 aad stood for Point Judith, The wind, which had shifted to southeast, freshened, and the Volunteer showed for the first time during the variabie day a thin segment of her black bot- tom as she heeled to port. She started sheets and passed the Point at 4:50. Her nimble sallormen ediately clambered out on her long nose-pole and gathered in the jib-topsall. Eight minutes later her balloon jib-topsall bellied from the stay. ‘The Puritan passed the Point at 4:58, thence into Newport Harbor, The wind was just forward tne beau. The fuish was between Commodore Gerry's Electra and the Dumplings. ‘The general comment on the Volunteer by New Yorkers who saw her sail for the first time to-day is that she is the finest slngle-sticker ever turned ‘out by Yankee ingenuity. Niels Olsen remarked, as he watched her from the bridge of the Electra: “We need not fear losing the cup with that boat to defead it.” The run to-day demonstrates that the Volunteer is a marvel in light breezes. It was only when she Was in the near neighborhood of the Puritan, and both yachts had the same wind, ‘that she could be fairly compared with her. Every Ume ULts happened the Volunteer showed herseit immeasurably superior, The tinish of the leaders Was witnessed by hundreds of folks on the Dump- lings and the opposite bluffs and in a fleet of cat- boats that bounded out Lo meet them. ‘The Volun- Weer finished at 6:05:48, the Puritan at 13:00, and the Atlantic at 6:24:25. More than half the feet came in aller sunset and were nab timed, ‘The Volunteer beat the Puritan seven minutes and twenty-one seconds and the Atlantic one mihute and forty-nve seconds, This 1s the oficial record Of the yachts that were timed: Name.
