AT BAR HARB0R.
Great Tennis Between Hall Brothers
and Mccormick and Wrenn.

Fought contest-The Summaries.

BARHARHon. Aug. ls.-rhe great tennis
match of the afternoon between tine Hall
Brothers. the Eastern double champions,
and H. Mccormick and X. ID. Wrenn, re-
suited in "A surprise. The former pair was
handicapped by having to concede odds of
half fifteen to the latter team. and either
these odds or the exceptionally good play of
the opponents, or both combined proved
too much for the Hall boys, and they were
compelled to yield to their younger adser-
saries
Both Wrenn and Mccormick played
most excellent game, and were effective IN
persistent volleying. To offset this the Hall
bows tried constant lobbying, but often their
returns fell short, and were promptly
smashed by either Wrenn or Met Cormick.
The Halls did not play badly, but rather
poor court seriously interfered with the
effectiveness of their ground strokes.
The match commenced with the Hall
brothers PLAYING carefully and confidently,
in spite of the odds against them. Their
opponents played very close to the net,
which they covered in great style, winning
the first set. o.
The second set was the closest and most
ho,lv conte sted of the three. After long,
exciting rallies in which the Halls had about
all they could do to keep up with their OPP
ponents, five games all, were scored.
Wrenn and Mccormick won the next game
with the count G., in their favor, and
needed but single point to win the set AMI
match. But this point they did not get, the
Halls pluckily saving the game. finally win
ming the get -, amid great applause.
Tb;l 10 tho spf each and
to the three games, all on the third and de
Gliding set the play was about as close as
could be. The volleying was quick and
accurate, and neither pair made many er-
rors From this time on Wrenn and Me

KNOXVILLE, Aug. is,--This afternoon
TIN, court house here rang the riot call. and
since then the excitement has been intense
At o'clock this afternoon the wires "ere
cut at Coal Greek, aud soon thereafter the
Journal received bulletin that an attack
had been made upon Camp Anderson
From the news now obtainahle, the attack
must have been ''feeler," as no easuali-
ties are reported.
In short time another attack was made
and then third. In the last Gatling guns
were brought to bear upon the miners with
deadly effect, and many were killed ami
wounded.
AtGP. NJ. news was brought that Capt,
Anderson had been captured, being held
prisoner with guard 10 prevent the not
headed faction hanging him.
The capture. it is said, to some extent
disheartened the militia, but they are fight
ing with desperation, as they know that
their capture will be followed by the death
of all the hands of the infuriatci mob.
Reinforcements are hurrying forward,
but they are few in number, though BRAY"
fighters. |, is feared that the little band
that left Knoxville this afternoon will be
butchered before help can reach it.
At 80 Z. NJ. a posse was summoned by
Sheriff Holloway AMI was armed with
Winchester rifles. 1t numbered ~ men
among them some most prominent business
and professional men of the city, and com
manded by Major Carpenter, grizzled
veteran of the late war, and IA hard tighter.
This posse was joined by the militia under
Col Woolford, numbering prohahl, 100
men. The party Immediately left on the
train far the scene of trouble.
At Clinton they were met by a number
of citizens of knoxville, Clinton and Coal
Creek who urged the absolute madness Of
going forward without reinforcemen's.
A thousand armed miners, they said,
were drawn up ready to fire as they alightcd
from the train and dynamite was every
where. Major Carpenter heard them
them through and said: BOYS. guess
We will go on" and they went,
Wires are down and beyond Clinton they
have not been heard from. At Clinton
sounds of battle were plainly heard, and
there is no doubt but that deadly fighting
RACES beyond the mountain.
The possible fate of the Knoxville troops
at this hour s O'clock in leaking out from
the newspaper and telegraph offices, and
thousands of angry men line the streets and
curse Gov Buchanan for his weakeness
and the miners for their madness.
The Court llouse bell is again ringing
the riot call and the excited people are rush
ing in all directions. Men are volunteer
ing but there are no arms
Gen. earns with 400 men has just
reached knoxville, and will go Immediately y
to the front. The opinion is growing that
an aw full loss of life can only be averte'l by
the Governor calling at once ON the Presi-

They attempted no violence.
There were altogether too many soldiers
on hand for them to DO anything of that

they were not making any threats.
There is a blockade of freight, that from

anv attention. and that is getting very
little. The Central West Shore, Erie, Lake

Only the main tracks are kept open and
this is difficult.
