July 22. The second trial that Defender has had in New York waters against Vigilant today only furnished more evidence that the new boat la better than the old In light weather. They Balled over a triangular course outside of Sandy Hook , and wore tested In pretty nearly every kind o Balling. They started out before the wind. IJcfore they had gotten half way on the journey of the first leg of ten miles they were nailing with the wind over the quarter. Heforo they got to the end of the Ilrst leg they were oven more closely hauled. On the second leg they were reaching free and tacking , and on the final angle they were nblo to head to the homo mark with "a fairly well lifted sheet. The result left no doubt as to the respoct- tlvo qualities of the boats In the kind of weather that prevailed , but that weather was of the lightest character. At no time did the breeze blow harder than twelve knots an hour , and It fell at times to four. On the run out before the wind at the start Vig ilant not only held her own for a period , but at the end of four miles was well abeam of , Defender. This run was made with spin naker Eet and drawing , under which condi tions , it.Is almost universally conceded , Vig ilant ia the fastest boat In HID world. She showed those same qualities here as well as on the other side of the Atlantic. When It came to the point , however , where , because of a little shift in the wind , spinnakers had to bo hauled In and booms hauled In board , Defender Instantly shot ahead. She kept ahead and was never afterward overhauled during the entire thirty miles , unless It might have been on certain little portions of the course where the wind dropped to almost nothing. It those places It seemed as though Vigilant picked tip , but the gain was Inconsiderable. The run be tween the marks shows that Defender gained In each of three angles. NO NEW SAILS. It was expected that Vigilant would show up with new sails this morning , hut It turned out that she had only time to make a few alterations In the canvas that she used on Saturday. One Improvement there certainly was In her outfit , the cleaning of her centcr- bourd. A diver was eent down to examine the cenlerboard yesterday while the boat lay Ins'.tlo of the Sandy Hook horseshoe. He found It covered with barnacles and grass. The board' had not been touched for polish ing purposes when Vigilant was docked at the Erie basin for the cleaning of her hull , because there was no room to lower It for examination. This Improvement , when the diver had finished , was nu small one. It , together with the change In the cut of her sails , made the boat do better without doubt than Bho did on Saturday. Yet , the only time she gained on Defender was when she had that same old champion centerboard hauled up and It was of no use whatever. Defender appeared In just about the same form as she showed In the Ilrst race. Trif ling Improvement was made In her block work , and a small cut was taken out of her club topsail. If there were any Improvements In form It was In Vigilant , and that makes Defender's performance moro remarkable. Directly after the start the racers found themselves dead before the wind. Down went Vlgllant's spinnaker boom at the first sign of a dead astern wind , and It was not a minute later that Defender followed suit , while Vigilant met with a mishap at the start , a small sloop getting In her way. She was on the starboard tack , while De fender was still on the port. Defender came around Just before the line was reached , but refused to give way to the old boat , which , because she was on the starboard tack , had the right of way. It looked as though there would be a1 collision , but the older boat by courtesy waived her right , and went about to the port tack , passing In under Defender's Ice quarter until she was clear. Vigilant at once raised a flag of pro test , but no notice was taken of It at the time by the committee. The yachts went over the line with jib topsails flying and continued up to the time that the spinnakers wcro set. DEFENDER GAINED QUICKLY. After the spinnakers were hauled In De fender began to go ahead. Within the space of a mile from the time the spinnakers were hauled down Defender was a good sixteenth of a mile ahead. Hounding the Urst mark , despite the fact that Defender had some llttlo distance > o go , she perceptibly gained on Vigilant , making a very pretty turn with in twenty feet of the buoy , and went away on the starboard tack with sails quite full In true racing style. She was very quick coinIng - Ing up In the wind , and ns the main sheet was hauled aft , she held her head up and went very quickly through the water , close hauled , making the course southwest In a wind that had died down to about six miles an hour. Vigilant did not go so close to the buoy , but she went around it just as fast. Jib topsails were run out at the beginning ot the second leg and as the wind freshened a little bit the contestants presented a pretty picture. At 2:20 : Defender found shu could not weather the second mark , so she went about to port , and , as there was a bit of a breeze at the moment , she showed how she could spin around from one tack to the other. Defender stood on this tack for three mtnutea , when she came around to starboard while Vigilant held on to her old starboard tack. At 2:11 : Defender tacked to port , Vlgh lant still holding on. At 2:51 : Vigilant wcnl around to port , always showing herself to bi from seven to ten seconds slower In tack' Ing. Defender came- along In flno style and passoJ the last buoy at 2:50:11. : : Vigilant did not got around until 2:57:25. : : They cairn homo without a tack , u point or a point am : a half from the wind. On the stretch De Wndei only gained more and the finish tool place amid a great bellowing of whistle : anij the firing of cannon and the tooting o horns from the collection of steam yachts am excursion boats that were gathered about tin lino. The ofllclal time was : Defender 4:19:30 : : ; Vigilant. 4:28:17. : : Thus Defendei wins by nlno minutes and seventeen seconds At 11 o'clock , the time set for the start the yachtH were not qulto ready. Iloth wen maneuvering for advantage. The signal w.v given from the judge's boat that the coursi would be a triangular one , starling from thi Scotland lightship buoy southeast , half south for ten miles well out to sea , then an cqua distance west southwest , which would brlni the turning stakeboat of the second leg ncarlj abreast of Long Branch. The last leg am homo run was announced to be ten mile : north , half east. After the warning signal , fired at 11:14 : , am when both boats maneuvered , the gun for tin start was llrcd. At 11:21 : Defender was li best position. At 11:21:30 : : she swept over tin tartlng line and Vigilant , chasing her eagerly made her formal start at 11:25:10 : : , or abou forty second behind the leader. Just befori the two boats went across the line the ; brought out their balloon jib topsails. De" fender teemed first to gain by this movement The great racers being thus started , the ex curalon licet and pleasure craft hurried of with them , keeping well to Ireward. Ilotl ydchts wore carrying main falls , club sail and stay sail. The sky was cloudy and tin wind was wesf southwest , about twelve mile an hour. DEFENDER GAINED STEADILY. At 11:33 : Defender' ! crew sent up her bal loan jib and at ( hat time xhe was Increasln ; the distance between herself and Vigilant a tbe ttart. The sails on each boat were draw Ing well , and those of Defender fitted he more exactly than they did In the race o : Saturday. At 11:3S : a. ra. , as leon from Far Rockawaj Defender wus gaining slightly and appoare to be leading Vigilant by a minute and twen tf-two seconds. Five minutes later observer from the Long Island roast lost the two boat from view as they sailed off straight lilt the ocean aouthnaitward. At 11:45 : , ne.ul half of the first leg of the course appeared t bare been sailed. Defender had nearly. I not quite , n mile of clear water between her lf and Vigilant. At 12:22 : It was clear by the rate at whlc the boat * were sailing and by the direction of the wind that the contest of the day would bo an excellent test of the reaching qual ities of the contending yachts. Vigilant was a trifle more tender than Defender. Out where ( he boats wcro the breeze was fitful betwcn noon and 12:30 : , for an occasional flutter of the big sails was observable. At 1:02 : , unoinclal time , Defender rounded the turning point at the end of the first ten miles. Two minutes and eighteen seconds later Vigilant came around the stake boat. CARRIES HER CANVAS WELL. In the rac away from the first turning boat It tcumed clear from the Highlands , where the vision ranged nearly across the COUTHC of the yachts , that Vigilant was gainIng - Ing on Defender. Having squared well away to their work It was evident again that De fender wan stlffcr than Vigilant. The new boat carried her canvas easily , while Vigi lant heeled over so that the ripples were running along her port rail. Doth yachts stood on the starboard tack toward the Jer sey coast and made one long leg of about twenty minutes. It became' evident that the second turning point would be close under the Jersey shore near Asbury Park. The Defender was well to windward at 1:44 : and both were on the port tack. Five minutes later the two yachts went about on the star board tack and made another leg toward Asbury I'ork. Jib top R.I Us wcro upon both yachts at this time and Defender seemed about three-quartern of a uillu ahead. At 2 o'clock the breeze freshened , hauling somewhat to the southwest. Defender caught It first and gained some distance on Vigilant. Defender wont about on the starboard tack at 2:20 : and headed in nliore. Vigilant still holding on to the long leg. At 2:49 : Vigilant wont about on the starboard tack , standing to the turning mark. Meantime Defender , on the starboard tack , was making a wide turn , going fully a quarter of a mile Inshore from the turning stake. At 2:00 : Defender had rounded the second mark. At 2:57 : Vigi lant turned the mark and started on her homeward Journey. The wind at this point of the race was coming up strong from the west. FINISHED WITH A RUSH. At 3:12 : Defender was off Seabrlght and sailing like a witch. Iloth yachts were at the time sailing steadily under the Influence of a full beam wind out of the west , blowing between fifteen and twenty miles an hour. At 3:15 : neither yacht had tacked since rounding the last stake boat. Defender , in the lead , was heeling so that her bronze keel could be seen to windward Hashing In the sunlight. Astern , Vigilant was heeling at a sharp angle and tlu accompanying flotilla of tugs and boats hurrying along with cheers from their decks and with screams from their whistles. At 3:26 : Defender was off the Highlands and about a mile In the l ail. At 3:3G : De fender was close on to the finish line and the Vigilant was off the Highlands. So the boat Defender rushed on to close the contest , and with hpr canvas drawing beautifully sped over the line of finish at 3:44:20. : : Mean while the defeated Vigilant was coming through a long lane of every variety of craft , while the victor was easily making her way to port. Nine minutes nml fifty seconds after the victor had finished Vigilant went over the Una at 3:51:10. : : The following is official time : Defender. Vigilant.

Mr. Herr opened the dis pute with a written argument , touching the Impossibility ot maintaining a fixed ratio between gold and cllver. Ao the result of experience all of the civilized nations of the globe bad discarded sliver as a standard money. It was useless to exploit long tables of ratios to show whether a double standard could bo maintained. The world had pronounced - nouncod against silver.

Ho said that the time at his disposal In the debate would not admit ot it. Taking up Mr , Horr's eulogy of Senator Morrlll , delivered on Saturday , ho charged that Senator Morrlll erred In saying that no silver dollars had been coined for forty years prior to 1873. Mr. Harvey read from the re- > ort of the director of the mint , showing liat silver dollars in greater or less amounts ad been coined nearly every year. The act was that Mr. Morrlll was a bank stock- older with a bank stockholder's prejudices le called on Mr. Herr to explain.
