TENNIS Ar rARRAGANsETT PIKR

Summary OF the Days Playing.
PRoNIDENcE, Aug. IL Narragansett Pier]
The morning play on the tennis courts
opened with the match of H. A. Taylor and
Miss Robinson against Fl. w. Slocum and
Miss Theresa Stoughton of Washington. Miss
Robinson is called the champion of the United
States and has only been beaten once, her
conquerer then receiving the title of cham
pion. Miss Robinson and partner scored the
frat game and Miss Stoughton and Slocum
then won six games in succession and the set,
81. Miss Stoughton's playing was notably
different from what has been seen here on
the part Of ladies. Her serving was all under
hand and many of her best strokes were given
in the same fashion. She sent all her
balls low, barely going over the net and they
were driven swiftly. In the second set it was
one-all, two all and then fve-two, with Miss
Robinson and partner ahead and finally they
took the set 6-3. A third set was now called
for. The playing was very even at first, but
Miss Stoughton and partner gradually got
behind. The tenth game was close and ex-
ahead and they finally forceda brief rally
and took the set, Ga, and the match. A pre-
liminary contest for second prize in gentle
mems single went at the same time, Wright
of Trinity and Hodge of Princeton, each
champions of their respective colleges, play
ing. Wright lost the first set, but took the
next two. Score: 4-6, 81, go. Smith and
Colgate also played in the forenoon and the
struggle was long one. Smith won the

OUR rBxT PRESIDENT VISITED

BY Mighty Delegation From Three
States-He Shakes Hands with Seven
Thousand and Freely Discusses she
Political Situation.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 17.-Between nine and
ten Thousand people called on General Hsrri-
son to-day, the delegations coming from Ohio.
Indiana and Illinois, and he is said to have
shaken hands with fully seven Thousand. A
delegation from Jacksonville, H., was headed
by glee club of twenty young women. They
wore navy blue dresses, trimmed with n broad
gold band, and light felt hats and carried
natty black walking sticks. The Ohio men
wore green buckeye burrs as badges and the
women bouquets of the burrs.
The visitors gathered in University Park
and several addresses were made, In replying
to which Mr.. Harrison said:
The Republican party has always been hos
pitsble to truth. (Applause and laughter.) It
has never Stunned debate. 1t has boldly and
in the courage of the principles it has advo-
Gated challenged sll corners; it has
never found it necessary OF. consist
suppress free discussion on any
question. There is not Republican com
munity, where any man may not advocate
without fear his political beliefs. (Cries of
"that's son There is not Republican vot-
ing place where any man, whatever may
have been his relation to the flag during the
war, may not freely and exercise his right to
vote. (Cheers.l There is not one such pre-
cinet where the right of a confederate sol
der freely to cast the ballot of his choice
would not be defended by the Union veterans
of the war. Applause and cries of "you are
right, that's true.D Our party is tolerant of
political differences. 1t has always yielded
TO others all that it demands for itself. It
has been intolerant OF but one thing-disloy
atty to the flag and to the Union of States.
Great applause.) 1t has had the good for
tune to set in the constitution and the per-
mansnt laws of our country many of the
great principles for which it has commended.
It has not only persuaded q majority of our
thinking, but it has had the unusual fortune
to compel those who oppose it to give a
belated assent to every great principle it has
supported"
The general spent the next two hours in
shaking hands and then went home.

Statement.

The Citizens OF Jacksonville Publish q
Statement.
JACKSONVILLE, Aug. ITO correct enron.
eous reports circulated in regard to the con-
dition of affairs here leading citizens have
prepared the following statement:
There have been thirty two cases of yellow
fever in and near the city since the first case
was introduced three weeks ago. These
cases have either been sent to the hospital OF
isolated. Four of those taken i'll have died,
eight have recovered and twenty are now un-
der treatment. During the past three days
only four new cases have occurred and there
have been no death since Monday morning
The most vigorous measures are being taken
to prevent the spread of infection and to
thoroughly cleanse the city. There were on
ly eleven deaths last week in this city of
more than 10000 inhabitants, only one of
these being from yellow fever and the gene
raj health of the people of Jacksonville dur
ing the past thirty days and at the present
time will compare favorably with that of any
city of like size anywhere. While generous
offers of aid have been rendered from differ
emit quarters the authorities and citizens feel
that for the present they are able and prefer
to rely on their own resources.
A later dispatch from New Orleans says:
A Jacksonville special says there were four
new cases of the fever to-day.

to be required. Mrs. Dio Spoke of the revs-
lation of immortality inarmy life in India and
offered resolution on social purity. Mrs.

To BURY THE RATCHET.
Resolutions Adopted by the National
Republican Committee Appealing Go
the Virginia Factions.

the Virginia Fact1ons.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE executive COM
mittee of the Republican national committee
met to-day to adjust the differences in the
Republican camp in Virginia. The follow
ing resolution was adopted and an appeal
issued to the warning factions to bury the
Ratchet and unite in an effort to carry Vir-
ginia for Harrison and Morton:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF the committee
that the proposal made by the Republican commit
tee Of Virginia, presided over by General Malone,
to submit the question to electors in the six
tested districts of Virginia to the district conven
gressmen, ought to be accepted by that
wing of the Republican party presided over
by Colonel Houston. But we are further of the
opinion that, in the interest Of harmony, the per
calling the meetings to elect delegates and the
district conventions to order should not designate
the temporary chairman but the selection of said
chairman should be left entirely to tho meetings
and conventions themselves. -

YACHTS OFF NEWPORT.


Hundreds OF Yachts Ride the Waters
-New Haven Boats Make Fine show
fng-The Mammoth New York Club.
NEWPORT, Aug. 17.-Hundreds of yachts
are riding the waters before Newport and this
place has taken on the liveliest look and pic
ture of summer. The New Haven feet, which
has made a remarkably fine showing, has
diminished in numbers somewhat and Thurs
day night only the crews of the Wilful, Ceres,
Marguerite, Sea Belle, Wild Pigeon and Hy-
dros were to be seen about town. The Wanda
remains at anchor of Stonington and large
part OF the feet stayed at Mystic Island for
some time after the races.
The run to Newport, rather than being 8
fast one, was uneventful and the squadron
cast their anchors into Newport harbor long
before 1t was time for dinner. The run was
made in four and three-quarter hours. The
Wilful was the last to arrive. The Trio has
not yet put in an appearance and once more
the yaw1 Meta Comet is missing. Both came
out by Watch Hill race and were far down
the beach to leeward and away from any har-
Dor when the wind increased to marked de-
gree. Considerable anxiety is felt for the
peril. Her nearest port from where she was
last seen is Block Island, and that was off
shore in fog bank ten nailes. The Trio is
only twenty-three feet in length.
Yesterday afternoon Commodore CLARK gave
his orders for to-day and the feet was to set
sail for New Bedford at 6 O'Clock this morn
ing 1t is more than possible, however, that
the squadron will quietly lay at anchor, for
the mammoth New York feet is coming on
from New Bedford and if the boys go out
they will just miss them. The big squadron
from New York is to remain here quietly
over Sunday and probably the sailors from
New Haven will decide to do the same.

The Senate Tariff Bill Almost Ready
An Estimated Reduction of Eighty
Million Dollars.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-Despite the wild
stories set aaoat from Democratic sources,
the recent Republican caucus acted with en-
tire unanimity. The tariff bill is almost
ready and will be reported next week.
The proposed cut of so per cent. on sugar
has never been, and is now now, subject of
controversy. Everything has been definitely
settled in favor of the cut. It may be well,
also, to add that the Senate bill will rectify
that provision of sugar schedule in the Mills
bill which was drawn in the interest and at
the request of the sugar trust. The duty on
lumber will remain just as it is now. The
tariff on wool is the only question still open.
The new bill does away with the entire in
ternal revenue tax on tobsccos and removes
the same tax on spirits used in manufactur-
ing and the arts. 1t is estimated by mem
beers of the cub committee that it will re-
duce the revenue about $50, GOO, 900.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-Secretary Bayard
in an interview with Post reporter tonight
in regard to the fsheries treaty now pending
before the Senate said: "I have no knowledge
and never had any knowledge of any inten-
ton to Withdraw the treaty"
''Will the rejection of the treaty terminate
the mod1s vivendi which was to last for two
yeara'
The Secretary answered: mo, not neces-
sarily. Under that modus vivendi some of
our fishermen have secured licenses from the
Canadian government under which they
can carry on their business without
nolestetion until the licenses expire,
possibly for a year. The modus vivendi
was proposition that was made to us en-
tirely from the other side. The United
States government has nothing to do with it
and suppose 1t would be within the right of
of Canada to withdraw it in case the treaty
is rejected. But its continued existence does
not depend upon the treaty" Mr.. Bayard
said he did not know what the policy of the
government would be when the treaty was
rejected.
