By John {Noted Yachting Authority Who Ie Describing Races for the America’s Cup Especially for Thi ‘The sailormen went down to the Lightship off Sandy Hook to watch, with novel feelings, for the second race between Shamrock IV. and Resolute | Vor one thing, the challenger was, for the first time in the cutter-sloop races, one race to the good. Then, for the first time in all| those years, the sailors were wondering whether anything on Saturday. on the Resolute to give the challenger They were not exactly apprehensive, but they considered the possibility of losing the cup through two more defender. On arriving at the lightshin from which the race was to start they lost aN their fear of disaster on board the Resolute, because the wind was foo light lo lift the ensins on the spectator fleet, not to mention wreck- ing top-hamper of any kind on the racers. Accordingly, the Racing Committee hoisted a postponement signal and ail hands ‘began to whistle for a breeze, so to say. Before 1 o'qlock the breeze came in from the south'ard and thereafter grew mdterately until 1.10, when the “Sommittee hauled’ down the ovost- ponement flag. That was to tell the vaoers that the warning sixnal would de given within fifteen minutes. The three courses of the triangular yace were next signalled—southeast & beat to windward for the first lez, west by-south for the second and north by east a half east for tho home run. ; ‘The’ southeast breeze was their sharp enough to cover the course if it held. The committee took the chance and then gave the sailormen’s view of the most interesting start of a vace eeen since Valkyrie III, fouled Defender at the starting line late m the last century. And it was a start that, as an exhibition of seamanship, has never been surpassed in the cuv races. Beginning with the warning signai;| Capt, Adams of the Resolute simply took charge of both racers. ‘The Shamrock reached and , stood and tacked and veered and ran and wore round in a series of efforts to shako ,off the Yankee. But alj that time ‘Adams played with her as a coyote ‘sometimes plays with’ a stray shcep ‘on the Western plains. ASTONISHING TO SEE RACERS CARRY SUCH BIG SAILS. When Shamrock broke out her big lio topsail, Resolute set a much smaller one, though not a baby. It was as tonishing to see the racers carrying such sails for a beat to windward— especially such a tremendous one as that on Shamrock. Doubtless the big fall increased Shamrock's speed some- what in the reaching for position, but _eilegolute held to her weather-quarter sition nevertheless. é Pominally at 1.48 o'clock (two minutes before the signal to go) Shamrock stood up (to the southeast) across the Tine while Resolute turned away and ran before the wind off toward the northwest, well away from the light- ship. It looked to the inexperienced us if the Resolute had decided to give the worried challenger a peaceful tart. ‘uThereupon, just as the starting signal was given, Shamrock, after fuzning to port tack, veered off and down the wind, west of the lightship, which was, as intimated, at the west @nd of the line. It looked a tas if she were going to:mest Hesulute, but when she had passed the lightship she hurriedly came to the starboard tack just short of the defender. Manifestly she was in- tending to cross the line ahead of Resolute, and appearances seemed to favor her. But as she turned she necessartt Jost some speed, while Resolute, afte turning away down’ yonder alee of the line, came swooping up once more on Shamrock's weather, As Shamrock straightened out for the line, Resolate established an overlap and then, while the spectators gazed in amazement, she ranged up abeam “and passed the Shamrock, to cross the line nine seconds in the lead. | By counting the seconds, Capt Adams placed the Resolute at the exact point where she could head for the Hine on Shamrock's weather quarter and at the same time gain full headway, Shamrock turned to- had not attained h full speed be- tore the line was reached In short, Adams made a, monkey of the British skipper, just as he did on Thursday by the very same tac- tics, No better yacht skipper ever handled a cup racer than Cait, Charles Francis Adams 2d ‘The official time of the start was Resolute, 1.4 Shamrock, 1.46.37. SHAMROCK’S LEEWAY HURTS HER MORE THAN SPEED HELPS. ‘The racers were off on a ten-mile heat to windward, With her larger jib topsail Shamrock naturally cased off to get-from under the lee of the Resolute, for Resolute was “killing” her wind, As Shamrock worked alee with her big reaching jib topsail pull ing she naturally made greater speed over the ground than the defender, which was, of course, held close up to the wind, But she was by no means making greater speed toward the turn, for her leqway hurt her more than she gained by speed through the water, (Continued on Ninth Page.) ‘nth 4. morning edi= en tn The World, morning dt ‘entitled “ate “Berand eked aptritiatic. revelations welt kuowm ae th of rave, ay letras ward the line so close to it that she | | *It seemed to some of the spec- ” fr KARO CAOCICE R.

Bids of 50 cents a share for the stock, which has been a dead issue for three years, were freely made at the opening and the price quickly rose until sales were being made at 75 cents, The Manhattan Transit Company was incorporated in 1902, after it had acquired the charter of the General Carriage Company. That charter au: thorizes the company. to construct and maintain a syStem of horse or motor vehicles through any public highway in any city of the first clacs in the State, and is sald to be the most sweeping franchise of the sort ever granted at Albany. Joseph H. Hoadley was the moving spirit in the company and among the original stockholders were Charles F. Murphy, the*late John C, Sheehan, the late Anthony N. Brady, the late Patrick H. McCarren and other Tam- many leaders. The price of the stock at that time was from $5 to $8 a share, but as nothipg was done to exercise the company’s rights it slumped to below $1 four years ago. Then it had a sudden rise following an announcement ‘by Mr. Hoadley that the company was.to begin city- ‘wide operation of buses. It sold up to $4 In 1916, but nothing came of the feported operation of buses and the stock has not been traded in for two years.
