At this time tho r(itall which spilt Constitution's balloon In two, the rip being In tho center, came up. Then camci the accident to tho balloon Jib topsail of Columbia. Tho sail was hauled down nnd taken on board. A small reuchlng jib topsail was tuged out to tho bowsprit end In stops and In a little whllo tho sail wn broken out nnd was doing some strenuous pulling. It was a dashing piece of good seamanship. Constitution did not attempt to sc't afcnther Jib topsail, but held on to Its club topsail although the squall was rnthcr strong.

Although under sail for only two hours, today, Shamrock II' astonished those who followed It by Its re markable speed and ability to lie close to tho wind. Tho yacht again demonstrated beyond question that It can sail when reaching with the wind abeam, so that tho big Jib topsail can be made to draw at a speed varying from fourteen to fifteen knots, ac cording to tho strength of tho wind. The yacht was nil ready to mnkc a start by 11 o'clock this morning, but ttere wns not a breath of wind" at thaV'tlmef Just then tho steam yacht Itcvcrle ranged up alongside Shamrock and Its owner, C. n. Thomas, halted Sir Thomas Upton announcing that tho members of tho Irish Itlflo team wero on board, with the women of their party. Sir Thomas Invited the party to como aboard, offering to send a launch for them, Tho party of seventeen wps soon on board tho cup challenger, shaking hands with Its owner, ,who took particular pains to show tho Visitors overy part .of .tho yncht. After Inspecting Shamrock the party was taken on board Rrln, nnd shown over that vessel. Shortly .after-noon there wero Indications of a breoro coming In from seaward, so 8hnmrock's mooring wns. gotten ready to slip, Soon nftor- 1 o'clock n cool, fresh breeze camo from the' southeast and then n steam launch shot out from alongside Krln. In It were Sir Thomas Llpton, Mr. Jame son, Mr, Watson nnd Commodore Hlllyard. Tho party had hardly stepped on deck when the yacht's mooring was slipped. Staysail, Jib and small Jib topsail were broken out nnd U3 Its nails filled and it gathered head way In the freshening breeze, It made n spirited picture. As soon as tho point of Sandy Hook wns cleared fchects were trim med down flat on tho port tack and the yacht slipped through tho water at n lively clip. It passed through Ocdney's channel and traveled nearly four miles In fifteen minutes. The tide was fair, but there wns not enough nf It to cut more than a knot off tho yacht's speed. Sallmnkcr Hats went on board Krlcson to obtain a good view of Shamrock's sails, but tho yacht had sailed no fast on tho way out that t was. obliged to heave to und wnlt 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 it como nroni and stood nlnng tho Jersey coast for ten minutes, when It swung around from full to full In twdvo seconds. The yncht was ly ing remarkably close to tho wind. MonicdiliiK of n Surprise. Ten mlnuten later the main sheet was manned nnd rounded In smartly, and then the great main boom swung across the deck as Captain Sycamore put tho helm up and gybed It; H Was' thought that tho spinnaker would bo set p.gnln, but Instead tho bowsprit men wore sent out to lake In tho small Jib topsail. The sail was down nnd stowed and another one put on the bow sprit in two minutes. In two' minutes more tho new sail wns soon on his stay, hoisted In place and broken out. There wero ex clamations of surprise and ndmlratton from all who saw It. tor It was a big reaching lb topsail of white linen, Ito cloths run ning up nnd down from n ccnWr line divid ing tho sail from clew to luff. As soon us this now sail filled tho yacht snemcd to Jump nwny with renewed speed, for tho light mnntlo caught ovy breath of wind going nnd pulled Ilki forty horses. Traveling at a fourteen-knot clip, nnd leav ing all steamers but Krln In tho wake, Shamrock entered Ocdney's channel at 4:03.

The screeching of whistles nnd the booming of guns greeted the president's train as It passed nlong tin lake nnd rlvor fronts over tho belt line tracks to the grounds. As tho train passed by tho fort, a Baluto of twenty-one guns boomed forth from Fort Porter. An Immense crowd had assembled nt tho railroad terminus nt the exposition grounds to Hwnlt the arrival of the presi dent, From tho electric towor down the west sldo of the court of fountains ns far ns tho triumphal bridge, people wore packed so closely together that there was scarcely room to movo.

A great cheer went up from tho thousands who caught a glimpse of the party and It wns token up am! re-echoed by tho others farther back, who, although they could not see tho president, knew what tho cheering meant. President McKlnley, with Mrs. McKlnley nnd John Mllbuin president of tho Exposition company, en tered tho first carriage, which wus drn'vn by foui 'handsome bnys. It was with dllll- culty that tho police kept a passageway clear for tho carriages, which proceeded slowly toward tho Lincoln parkway en trance. Cheer after cheer went up from tho vast throng. The president ac knowledged tho snlutntlons of the crowd by bowing nnd raising his hat. Mrs. McKIn ley, who looked remarkably well after the tiresome Journey, also smiled happily. The carriages paused for a moment on the triumphal bridge to glvo tho members of the party a moment to take In the beauties of the grounds. They were then driven rapidly out of tho Lincoln parkway entrance, up the parkway to Delaware avenue to tho home of Mr. Mllturn, whose guests President and Mrs. McKlnley and tho members of their party will be during their siny in the city. Tho president remained quietly In the nousc uurlng tho evening, retiring nt an early hour.
