MErA w. GIVEN THE FIRsr PRIZE
Remeasurement of the GeorGiana
Changes Result of Yacht Race.

Remeasurement of the Georgiana
Changes Result of Yacht Rnce.
1t seems that the Georgiana was not the
winner after all in the second class at the
regatta OF the Isle of Hope Yacht Club.
NJ. c. B. Westcott. who owns the Meta
w, and who sailed her in the race July
4, left word at the Morning News Office
last night TO the effect that as a result of
a remeasurement of Mr.. Backus' boat, the
Georgiana, the latter had been retired
from the first to third place, giving the
first prize to the Meta w. and the second
to Mr.. Frank Ferguson boat, the I'm
dine, which was only ffty-seven seconds
behind the Meta w. on the corrected time,
being pushed up to second place
This makes a change of considerable in
terest to yachtsmen. there being a very
lively rivalry among the owners of the
second class boats and Mr.. Westcott hav-
ing claimed for some time that the Meta
W. was the best yacht of her class in Sa-
vannah waters. Some of the yachtsmen.
in discussing the matter. held that the
Georgians was so different in construction
from the other yachts of the second class
that she could not properly be put in the
same class with them
The remea surement was conducted by
Mr.. Henry Backus, owner of the Geor-
giana, Mr.. Westcott and Mr.. Swan Sull-
van. Mr.. Westcott failed to state if this
measurement was official, and it was too
late to seen any of the judges or time
keepers AS Mr.. Backus took part in the
remeasurement the probab ility is that the
changed result as announced is accepted
by all the parties interested.

TRYING TO EVICT TENANT.
DispossessOry Warrant Against j.
w. TeepIe Is on Trial

W" II bH
The trial of the case of Eva Belle
Wimpy and Mary Houser against ]. W.
Teeple was resumed in the Superior
Court yesterday morning and went on
during the remainder Of the day. The
case was not concluded, and will be taken
up again when court convenes this morn
ing.
The plaintiffs are endeavoring to evict
the defendant from the premises now
used by him as furniture store. on
BrouGhton and Montgomery streets, uUou
which he has a lease The contention
of the plaintiffs IS that Teeple has de-
faulted in the payment of two monthly
instalments Of the rent, has thus VIC
lated the terms of the contract of lease
and been notified to yield possession.
The defendant denies that he is at all
derelict in his payments and refuses 10
give up the property. His further con-
tention is that when the property was
destroyed by fire he agreed with the
agent of the plaintiff 10 replace It for
$l,10o which he did. Instead of being
paid N.7O0, he was paid but 81, 200. and
Tor this reason he refused to pay the
rent.
Arguments Were made by Mr.. W. F
Slater and Mr. ". w. Osborne for the de-
fendant Mr.. Osborne did not conclude
and viii resume his argument when court
conVenes. He will be followed by Mr. W
{. HarTldge, who win make the conc!ud-
Ing argument for the plaindn. The ar
guments of yesterday were interesting
