The sea was fairly smooth at that hour. 8.55 the Columbia was taken in tow and started for Sandy Hook point. She was followed shortly, afterward by the Shamrock, which was also being towed. The offl cial committee boat started out of the hook at 9.30. She tfas bound for the light ship to lay with the compass the direction for the race today. Following the committee boat came a fleet of, vessels and excursion craft, loaded down with people to witness the race. The Interest in the race is intense, having been Increased by the closeness of the contest on Saturday and the prospects fbr a good race today. The sky is overhung with gray clouds at this hour, which is a presage of good wind for the entire day.
