which was slightly altered in trim. At
the start she crossed the line two seconds
ahead of the Britannia. At lCoche "ght-
house the Vigilant was two lengths ahead
and gaining. The Vigilant's topsail did
her but little good, and il was lowered.
From under Wemyss the yachts stood out
a long distance on the port tack, the Nigi-
liant going further out than the Britannia.
Near Skelmortie the first mark, the two
yachts for some time travelled In close
company. AS the Vigilant lost the breeze
first the Britannia hauled her in, but the
Vigilant in the light air soon pulled out
clear from the Britannia's lee. until she
was some lengths ahead. AT Skelmortie

Ascog, the Vigilant was becalmed, and the
Britannia rolled past her when rounding

the Britannia was leading the Vigilant
3 minutes seconds. OFF Gourock the
Vieiiant carried faint air and reached

The people here cheered the yachts as

DENIED A CHANGE OF VENUE.


Judge Glasgow Refuses LugrIn's Re-
quest, and Appeal IL Taken.
Judge Glasgow rendered q decision yes
terday afternoon denying the motion of
Editor Charles III. Lugrin for change of
venue in the criminal libel case in which
Bolton Rogers lie prosecuting witness and
the editor defendant Lugrin immedi-
ately died an appeal in the superior court
The court asked that the sfisnt be sworn
10 answer questions in regard TO some of
the allegations In his affidavit for change
of venue. The affiant refused to be sworn,
whereupon the Judge said he would not
press the matter. In denying the motion
Judge Glasgow took OCCASION to say that
he had no prejudice against Mr.. Lugrin,
because he knew that an editor was de-
pendent to a great extent on his reporters
for statements OF facts. and that in the
items printed in the telegraph. mentioned
in the affidavit. he had no reason to be
preiudiced against Mr. Lugrin, when the
reporter was responsible for the perversion
of facts. There was not a fair, impartial
statement of facts in single Item men,
toned in the affidavit.
The Judge continued by saying that he
vas satisfied there was no tribunal having
JuHsulction 10 bry anu uctcfmlho tnc
cause, under consideration, to which .
change of venue could be granted. Judge
Glasgow was not satisfied that the ground
alleged for the change of venue. that the
defendant could not have q far and Impair
tial trial because OF prejudice on the part
of the judge, existed.
Mr. Lugrin's attorneys denied the juris-
diction of the court to take further steps
in the case. and filed exceptions to the
ruling.
The trial in the municipal court will
commence July 10, at 10 O'Clock in the
morning.
Late yesterday afternoon Attorney
Wiley fled with Clerk Crawford, of the
municipal court. the writ of eertiorarI,
calling for a transcript of the records in
the case
