York, July 6.-JThe raCe r vlav between the Columbia and the Defend er was not altogether- satisfactory be cause of the fickle weather conditions. It was sailed over a triangular ourd of thirty miles, ten with ine wind and a dead ahead, tea with it on th ai-. v W board beam and quarter an J ten with the wind-over the port bow. Columbia defeated Defender by three minutes ana- thirty-three seconds elap sea time. As the ColumtMa is the al-lo-wing- boat, the corrected time will somewhat reduce the -victors'. The weather work of the Columbia in a varying and shifting breeze show ed she was able to point somewhat higher than the Defender. Columbia was handicaped two seconds, giving the Defender a start of tvo minutes, two seconds, more perhaps than. the latter would be entitled to in a time allow ance. The race demonstrated that the Defender is still a worthy ship. A contest in a piping wind and white-capped sea will doubtless reveal a larger knowledge of the new yacht's qualities.
