Th German schooner Hamburg was leading tbe ocean race for the kaiser cup early Thursday, mornlna 'according to re ports brought In by the steam yacht Oneida, which followed the racers ISO mile out from 8andy Hook. A mll and a half behind the .Hamburg,, wai the Atlantic on the same tack' and footing at a great rate. Both boats were crowding on all the sail they could handle close hauled, and were beating against the 15-krn , brerezt, blowing from the. northeast. : I E. C. Benedict, owner of the Oneida, was on board and whn he haadea back to w York at dawn Thursday the weather wa so thick that nothing could be seen of the other contestants In the trans-Atlantic race until 19 o'clock yeaterday morning when tht Atlas was sighted. So waa only fi miles out and th Oneida wai not able to learn what had delayed her, She arpeared to be making good head way and to be driving hard to make up lost ground. The other vessels In ;h fleet scattered early In the race, and are probably hurrying In widly divergent courses. In the time elapsed from the tart of th ra.e until the Oneida turned back th Hamburg and Atlantic had made good progress, footing fast all th way. Both boat were admirably handled and took advantage of every possible point. The showing made by the Hamburg waa a big surprise to those watching her and the opinion waa expressed by the returning yachtsmen that If the German yacht and the Atlantic have equal luck with the weather, they win furnish as pretty a race a could be wished for. the issue probably depend ing on th choice of a course. Both are) likely to go well to the north, I . .. winiHiug ganger to me limit or reas onable safety, hoping to get strong winds in the northern circle. As to the Allsa It is urmt.ed ;ati must have met with an accident hav ing maa only 75 miles In 22 hours. Whatever the trouble was.
