was nrJ. to set Its splnnnkcr to port, the
sail being handled with great speed. Ths
balloon Jib topsail on Columbia was lint
hoisted, however, tho honors thus being
even. Constitution stealthily crawled up
on Columbia, thu wind being at this time
about ten knots. At 3:28 Constitution led
for tho first time In the race. Its victory
was short lived, for at 3:55 Columbia wan
onco marc In tho van.
Constitution again at .4:10 led by n few
lengths. Tho tldo had set them consider
ably to the. oaj twnrd' of tho. true, course nnd
It became necessary to tuko In spinnakers.
Columbia set a balloon staysail and Con
stitution followed suit. Then came n sav
ngo puff which sent the leu rails of both
yachts under Columbia blanketud nnd
passed Constitution. At this time tho r.qimU
which split Constitution's balloon In two,
the rip being In tho center, catno up. Then
came' tho accident to tho balloon Jib topsail
of Columbia. Tho call was hauled down
and taken on board. A small reuchlng Jib
topsail was tuged out 'to tho bowsprit end
In stop and In a little whllo the sail wan
broken out and watt doing somo strenuous
pulling. It was a dashing piece of good
seamanship. Constitution did not attempt
to sc't another Jib topsail, hut held on to
Its club topsail although the squall was
rather strong. Columbia romped ncrcss thj
line, winning by a very closo margin.

NEW YORK, Sept. 4. Although under
sail for only two hours-today, Shamrock II
astonished tboso who followed It by Its re
markablo speed and ability to lie closo to
tbo wind.
Tho yacht again demonstrated beyond
question that It can sail when reaching
with tho wnd abeam, so that tho big Jib
topsail can be made to draw nt a speed
varying from fourteen to fifteen knots, ac
cording to the strength of tho wind. The
yacht was all ready to make a start by 11
o'clock this morning,, but there was not a
breath of. wlnd'at'that'tlme; ,)ust'thcu the.
steam yacht Reverie ranged up alongside
Shamrock nnd Its owner, C. 1). Thomas,
hailed Sir Thomas Upton announcing that
tho members of tho Irish Itlflo team were
on board, with tho women of their party.
Sir Thomas Invltsd the' party to come
aboard, offering to send a launch for them.
The party of seventeen wub soon on board
tho cup .challenger,' 'shaking hands with Its
owner, ;wlio took particular pains to show
tho visitors every part .of iho yncht. After
Inspecting Shamrock tho party was taken on
board Krln, and shown over that vessel.
Shortly .after-noon there were' Indications
of a brco-so 'coming-in from seaward, so
Shamrock's mooring ,wns. gotten ready to
slip. Soon after, 1 o'clock a cool, fresh
breeze camo from the' southeast and then a
steam launch shot out from alongside Erin.
In It were Sir Thomas Llpton, Mr. Jame
son, Mr. Watson and Commodore Hlllyard.
Tho party had hardly stepped on deck whon
the yacht's mooring wan slipped. Staysail,
J 11- and smnll Jib topsail were broken out
and 03 Its nails filled and It gathered head
way In the freshening breeze, It made a
spirited picture. As soon as the point of
Sandy Hook was cleared tdicett wero trim
med down flat on tho port tack and the
yacht slipped through the water at a lively
clip. It passed through Qedney's channel J
ana traveled nearly iour nines in niteen
minutes. Thu tide was fair, but thero was
not enough of It to cut more than a knot
off tho yacht's speed.
Sallmaker Itats went on board Erlcson to
obtain a good view of Shamrock's sails, but
the yacht had sailed bo fast on tho way out
that U van obliged to heavo to and wait
for Erlcson. At 2:5?, when the steam
yacht arrived, Captain Sycamore put Sham
rock on the starboard tack for seven
minutes and then let U como arond and
stood along tho Jersey coast for ten
minutes, when It swung' around from full to
full In twelve seconds. The yacht was ly
ing remarkably close to tho wind.
SomrthliiK of it Surprints
Ten mlnuten Inter ,the main sheet was
manned and rounded In smartly, and then
the great main- boom swung across the
deck an Captain Sycamore put the' helm up
and gybed Itj Was' thought that the
spinnaker' would .bo set again, but Instead
the bowsprit men worb sent out to tako In
tho smtll Jib topsail. The sail was down
nnd stowed nnd another one put on the bow
sprit in two minutes. In two' minutes more
the new sail was soon on his stay, hoisted
In placo and broken oht. There wero ox
clamntlons of surprise and admiration from
nil who law it. for It was a big reaching
lb topsail of white linen, Ita cloths run
ning up nnd down from a ccnWr line divid
ing tho sail from clew to luff.
As soon ns this now sail filled tho yacht
seemed to Jump nwny with renewed speed,
for the light mantle caught ovy breath
of wind golnij and pulled Itki forty horses.
Traveling nt a fourteen-knot clip, and leav
ing all steamers but Erin In tho wake,
Shamrock entered Gcdncy's channel at 4:03.
, It stood well oyer toward tho southwest
spit, then n:ade a .tack Into tho bay, where
the club topsail was taken in and at 6:30,
otter being towed to Its mooring by Law

of a startling nature Is soon to bo expected.
The Red I) line Steamer Philadelphia
brought n Inrge mail for Dr. rtestrcpn, the
agent of the revolutionary party In this
city. Interviewed, he said:
"Altogether, In Colombia, we havo now
nn army of moro than 20,000 men, well
armed and equipped. General Urlbe-Urlbo
has 10,000 well drilled troops under him,
nnd nccordlng to our ndvlccs was to Btnrt
on his campaign of Invasion of Colombia
at a point b'clow San Cristobal on August
23.
"Before his lines Is General Gonzales
Valencia, with nearly an equal number
of Colombian troops to oppose him.
"At Hio Chachn, which Is the seaport at
the northern part of tho Department of
Magdalcna, with a population of 10,000, wo
have two generals with a force of 3,000
men, who noW have the city surrounded.
Gcnornl Castillo is In command and Gen
ernl J. M. Castillo Is next In charge, with
tho farces divided .about equally between
them. , . i
"Hlochacha will he attacked both by land
and by sea, and, we expect will speedily
fall. Then we nellt!' take Santa Marta,
further down the coast, and hold both sea
ports of the Miiplnlena province. It will
not be difficult' to control the entire de

"Between Hlo Chacha and General Urlbe
Urlbe'n position, near San Cristobal, Is sta
tioned General Comacho, who has a force
of 4,000 veterans. For somu time they havo
been without ammunition, but about eigh
teen days ago new arms and a largo quan
tity of ammunition were successfully sent
to them, and they nre now In fine shape.
"Nenr Honda Is General Marin, with 2,000
seasoned men, nnd In the Cauca province,
In tho south, arc two generals and General
Herreru. I cannot speak of the slzo of
their forces or their movements.
"When General Comacho and his troops
Join with General Urlbo-Urlbe tho Depart

"It Is my belief that tho Colombian gun
boat Plnzon will never come back over tho

In, but so difficult to go out that steam
boat navigation of the river has been prac

"General Alban committed a grave nils

Belt psssengcr No. 1, southbound, due to
leave Texarkana at 0:25 last night, wai
delayed in Its departure a nil did l ot get
out until 11 o'clock. It rcachel tho Term
& Pacific crossing, four miles south i f T x
nrkann, nbout 11:25 p. m. As it stopptd to
blow six men bonrded the train.
Tvyo of theso got pn the engine und com
pelled tho engineer nnd fireman to go ba k
nnd cut out the mall nnd expirs cans from
tho train. When this nnd been done the
six men boarded tho cngm;. left tho .fire
man with the train and tio engineer wns
Instructed to go south. Tho trnln',was run
to Eylau. a small sldlns, where a bt p
wos made. ,
Whllo ono man guarded Jho t'nglne thj
flvo otherB went back to the jxrr:n? enr,
forced the doors nnd blew open t)ie sa.'e.
They took their time nt the work and h n
thoy hml concluded returned to the locomo
tive with two sncks filled with booty. Th-tc
they placed cn tho englno. Turning to the
engineer, ono snld:
"We'll Just shell rond you bore. You nre
not the only engineer In this crowd and I
guess wo can run tho machine .i icw milts
without your assistance. When ymi locate
your wagon flguro the run In on your mlle
nge, ns wo wont put In time for .he run we
make."
Putting out tho headlight, tho bandit on
glner opened the throttle and pulled out.
engineer Henderson wns left with the ex
press nnd mall cars nnd the messenger nnd
postnl clerk. He mado his way to a .section
house, within a mllo or two of tho scene,
and procuring a handenr and some men to
nssist In propelling It, he started for' tho
locomotive. It was slow work. At a point
south of Rowan, within four miles of Red
Water, they came upon tho deserted en
gine Etnndlng on the main track, throttle
closed, lights out nnd no one In sight. Tho
engine was at tho bottom of the grndo and
had either been deserted or had been left
at a point further north and was allowed by
Its own weight to suck the lovel track.
Engineer Henderson got aboatd, backed to
the mall and express ears and coupled up.

money, ho refused to make a statement.
Tho trick wns turned by men more ex
perienced In railroading than In robbery.
They knew tho stops of tho trnln nnd wero
prepnrcd for the emergency thus presented.
It wns rot necessary for them to flug tho
engineer and when he stopped to whlstlo
for tho crossing they climbed nboard. Thoy

display of their wenpons. All wero masked
and each wore a cont.
