ANGLO-FRENCH AGREEMENT.
Rights of Madagascar Missionaries-Chris-
tian Persecution.

tian Persecution.
By Associated Press.l
LONDON. August lin the House Of
Lords to-day the Marquis Of Salisbury
stated that the English agreement with
France maintained the rights and privileges
of missionaries in Madagascar, and insured
freedom of religious teaching. Under the
modern doctrine of "Hinterland," France
claimed the countries south of Algeria and
Tunis, and on the same principal the En-.
glish Niger Company could claim
the territories behind its present
sphere of operations. It was
obviously desirable to draw line separa-
ting the English and French spheres of
activity. The line agreed upon gave a
large part of the western shore of Lake
Tchad to the Niger Company, including the
Empire of Sokoto. The country northwest
of Lake Tchad would be considered under
French influence. The notes exchanged by
the two Governments recognized the fact
that the agreement would not affect the
rights of the Porte over the religions south
of Tripoli.-

respect their allegiance.

CANEA CRETE-Djeyad Pasha, Governor

ish soldiers who recently bayonetted three
Christian herdsmen near Spakhia. This

Turks.

nection with the International Medical Con-
gress closed to-day. Prof. Virchow made an

YEsrERDAY's ATTENpANCE.


Ted Sullivan arrived in the city yester-
day, and had in tow tall, handsome young
fellow he declared was pitcher, and his
name is Philips. He looked like pitcher
when he stepped in the box at the opening
of the game, but not bit of applause did
he get Before the game ended everybody
had decided that there was no doubt OF the
wonder" being pitcher, as the Chicsgos
failed before him without the least effort, and
he was given hearty cheer as he walked from
the field with the stride of conqueror.
Philips was very wild in the first inning. In
fact, It looked as though he had no command of
the ball at all. In the next inning but three
men faced him In the third they went out in
one, two, three order, and good work in the
fourth prevented two-bagger doing any
material damage. In the fifth it was easy thing
to get rid of them, and SO on through the game,
except in the seventh. when Glenalviu led off
with double and single followed. This did
no harm, as the next three men could not find
the ball.
SUNDAY INJURED.
The team is nothing if not unlucky, and now
Sunday is laid up, perhaps for two weeks. In
sliding to third in the first inning the little CEN
ter fielder injured his knee cap and though he
tried TO continue in the game was compelled
TO retire, and Wilson took his place in center.
Wilson played a good game, and made one
beautiful catch of low fly ball, but he can't
be expected to fill Sundays place. He is a
good hitter, but not SO speedy fielder as Sun
day.
-Chicago's first time at bat produced all their
runs After Cooney few out, Carroll got base
on balls Lvtle hit to Hecker, who fumbled it,
giving the batter a base. The bases were filled
on Anson getting first on balls. Burns hit for
a single. and two men scored, and be got to
second. Anson going to third Glenalvin fol-
lo~eu with a single, Anson and Burns scoring.
Glenalvin got to second on the play, to third on
wild pitch, and went out trying to score on the
drop of Nagles third strike. Stein retired at
hrst and their fun ended.
HOW THE LOCALS FARED.
Plttsburg got two runs at their first try
Sunday and Miller got bases on balls. Sunday
stole third and Miller went to second. After
Hecker few out, Sunday scored on Nagles
drop of thrown ball. which also gave Osborne
a life and Miller third. Berger singled and
Miller scored. La Rogue was hit by pitched
ball. Berger was caught at second, and Sales
Decker went out at first. Philips got first and
second on Cooney's bad throw. Wilson's hit
and Mlller's sacrifice scored him. Hecker few
out. The third was blank, but in the fourth,
after two men were out, Wilson got base on
balls, went to third on Millers single, was
caught of third and scored Burns wild
throw.
This tied the score and it SO remained up to
the ninth inning. Then Miller took first on
Osborne's two-baser. The latter went out try
70 take third. Berger singled and scored on
La Roques two-baser. Sales quit at first At
