Show RELIANCE IS OUT FOR ATRIAL SPIN BRISTOL, R. I., April 23. The new cup defender, the Reliance, was given her first trial sail today. The weather was not all that could have been desired, de-sired, there being only a light breeze from the west, but as the run was mainly to give her builders a chance to look over their finished workmanship, there was wind enough for their needs and enough to send the craft down the bay at moderate 'speed. The Reliance started at 9:33 o'clock. The breeze iiad shifted to the west and was very light. The yacht swung away from her moorings under three lower sails and a working topsail. Designer De-signer Herresnoff was at the wheel. The yacht's tender Sunbeam, the steamer Park City, :he tender of the old cup defender Columbia and the steam yacht Corona with Commodore Bourne of the New York Yatht club on board and a press tug followed. |
