The American defender Resolute de
feated the Shamrock at Court today by
her time allowance and not a second
more. . - . ( '
Taking; the lead after the start, the
American sloop held first place on
most of the first lejr. and turned the
first mark and held almost to a flninh
line. Within a mile of the finish the
Shamrock drew alongside, but the
Resolute waa granted a time allowance
of seven minutes and one second, was
safe. Had it not been for the time ai.
iowance which the challenger had to
give she would perhaps have won, be
cause she finished in 18 seconds ahead
of the defender, she crossed the start
ing line, however 19 seconds ahead of
the Resolute and, so, boat by boat, by
unoiriciai timing, lost the race by one
second plus the seven minutes and one
second she had to give the defender.
