RACES FOR ASTOR CUPS; Columbia Defeats Defender at Newport by Thirteen Minutes.

NEWPORT, R.I., Aug. 14. -- The new cup defender Columbia added another victory to her already splendid record to-day by defeating Defender, champion of 1895, thirteen minutes seven seconds, over a thirty-eight-mile course, and the slippery little Amorita defeated Colonia, Quissetta, and Ariel in the schooner class, finishing twelve seconds ahead of Colonia, which was second boat, and winning the race by one minute fourteen seconds, corrected time.
