INTERNATIONAL CRICKET.
The First Match Was Played Yesterday 8
 Manhein

Philadelphia, July 1.-The first inter- national intercollegiate cricket match between Canada and the United States was started to-day at Mannheim, the grounds of the Germantown Cricket club, and when play ceased for the day the Americans were leading by one run on the score of the first inning. The scoring by both teams was very light, but this was due to the fact that the wicket was decidedly a bowler's one and the bowling of a nature which even under ordinary circumstances could not be trif1ed with. Wadsworth for Canada scored the best bowling average for the day, his analysis being ' wickets, 42 runs, 14 maidens and 140 balls.
 Captain Henry of the American team won the toss and decided to bat on a crease The outlook was blue for the home players, but the Canadians made no better stand than their opponents and all went out for 89. When the last wicket fell there were twenty-five min utes left and the Americans went in for their second inning and when stumps were drawn two wickets were gone for 19 runs.

AT PIaI,S MERCY.
Mahoney Did Not Appear to be a Match for
 His Contestant.

HIS ConLesfhnr.
 Newton, Mass, July IA fairly large number of spectators, among whom were all the leading enthusiasts around Boston, witnessed the final match of the Neighborhood club invitation tennis tournament of 95 between the two guests of the club, Dr. Joshua Pim and Harold s. Mahoney. ii the previous times in which they had met this year Pim had won eight of the matches play ed, and in this tournament when they met on Saturday Pim won. Their rec ords In the tournament were each four matches won and one lost Plm had lost to Hobart and Ma'honey had only lost to Pim
 fhe match was rather too long for what the spectators thought was a fore gone conclusion, and Pim seemed very careless in his work At times the ral- lies were very hot and Pim generally had the power to win by rushing up to the net and passing his opponent on either side and by sharp smash cross court. Once in while the champion
 
 end of the match, when he was obliged to play hard to win, he made some won- derful drives exactly in the line corners Willis Harrington was the scorer of the contest. The points of the first set were:
 Pim-2. 5, 5, 2, 1. ?, 4, 4, 6, 5-36 points, 6 games.
 Mahoney-4, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, c, 2, 4, 3-31 points, games.
 Mahoney made a hard fight for the second set and won mainly on queer chop-strokes that dropped just over the net and did not bound
 Pim-9, 4, !, 4, ?, 2, 5, 0, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, l. 52 points, 6 games.
 Mahoney-7, 2, 9, 2, 4, 4. 7, 4, 1, i, 6, 1, 4, 4-56 points, games.
 Mahoney had too strong a lead to ena- ble the champion to pull out the set. Once in a while when Pim did play he showed that he had strong reserve pow CT, which he was either incapable of using for some reason, or else because he was indifferent. The points were: Pim-4, 9, 6, 2, 6. 4, 4, 3, 5, 7-50 points, 6 games.
 Mahoney-6, Il, 4, 4, 4, 6, 1, 5. 3, 9-5S points, games.
 With the game 4-3 against him Pim began ta run up to the net more and put more force into his strokes. Seem- ingly he could at will play on, either side of Mahoney, or lob over his head with fine judgment. The rallies were all more exciting and Pim's smashing was very fine. The points:
 Pim-4, 1, 4, 6, 9, 3. 2, 4, 4, ABA points, games.
 Mahoney-2. 4, 1, 4, 4, 5, 4, 2, 1. 2-2S points, 4 games. The fifth set Pim played stronger than ever and his wonderful accuracy in drives just into the base line corners were a fine sight. Mahoney seemed to lose his fighting and driving, and Pim had him at his mercy. The points:
 Pinl-4, 4, 4, 1. 4, 3, 4, 0, 4-28 points, 6 games.
 Mahoney-1, 3. 1. 4, 0, 5, 0, 4, lis points, 3 games.

ATT.EMPTED SUICIDE.

A Well Known Letter Carrier Takes Two
 Ounces of Laudanum-Was Very III But
 May Recover.
 Joseph A, Miller, a letter carrier, at tempted suicide at his home, 122 Frank street, yesterday morning, by taking a large quantity of laudanun. Mir Mill Ter was found by his wife, He had re- mained late in bed and when his wife went to call him she found him ap- parently asleep, but breathing heavily. A bottle of laudanum was laying near.
 Becoming alarmed, Mrs. Miller sent for Dr. Charles Rawling. The phy sician did everything possible, but the poison had a firm hold on the mans system, It is believed that he took the poison several hours before he was discovered. Dr. Rawling thought that he might not live.
 Miller was a captain in the Sixth Connecticut Volunteers during the war and is a Grand Army man. He was appointed letter carrier seventeen years ago by ex-Postmaster Sperry, and was regarded as one of the most re- liable men in the department. Last Saturday night he said good bye to his fellow carriers with tears in his eyes. It was known that he was going on a vacation yesterday, and the other carriers supposed that to be the reason of his affectionate leave taking. He purchased the laudanum at a drug store nearby Sunday evening. Superintendent of Carriers Edward Kennedy of the postoffice yesterday af- ternoon received Miller's route book and some other papers belonging to Miller, connected with his duties in the post office. On a sheet of paper accom- panying the books was this: Send this to MT Kennedy, the superintend- ent of carriers at the postoffice." MT. Kennedy upon receiving the books, happened to turn the piece of paper over and on the back side was this note addressed to Mir. Kennedy:
 MT. Kennedy, I can't stand it no longer, they my family) have worried the life out of me. Farewell (Signed) J. A. Miller"
 This note, therefore, explains the cause of the attempted suicide, and why Miller was anxious to close his existence. Late last evening Miller was better and recognized his family, and it was thought that he would pull through all right.

ALL TRYING THE COURSE
THE WEATHER WAS UNFGYORABLE
 AT HENLEY YESTERDAY.

Despite the Conditions of the Weather the
 Cornell Crew Got Out Early on the River
 Even Though the Wind Did Blow in
 Gusts and There Were Copious Falls of
 Rain, Pulled Over the Course.
 London, July 1.-The weather at Hen- ley this morning was very unfavora- ble for practice, nevertheless the Cor The wind blew in gusts and there was copious fall of rain. The Cornells had intended to go over the full course and rowed to the starting point with that object. They got good start, but their boat was so tossed about that they were unable to pull in unison until they reached the upper end of the Is land, when they began forty stroke, which they maintained steadily against strong southeast wind to the finish.
 The Argonaut four of Toronto went up to Marsh Lock and rowed all the way down to Hambledon Lock, com ing through that place with stroke of thirty-six to the minute. After the four had finished practice D. A. Thomp- son and F. H. Thompson went over the course in single souls.
 The London Rowing clubs crew, who are to contest for the Steward challenge cup, did some very. steady work at an average stroke of thirty-two Their boat, which Is a new one, proved in every respect satisfactory.
 The London clubs crew of eight, which will contest for the Grand chal- lenge cup, also went over the course, but their work did not impress the spectators very favorably.
 The Amsterdam eight, who have re- ceived their new boat, rowed up and down the course at a thirty-two stroke The men work well together, but they are short in the water and swing too far back throwing off their headway in the consequent jerk.
 The Trinity Hall eight were out on the course, but did very little work. They were closely watched by Charles Courtney, the Cornell coach, who ex- pressed the opinion that they were the best English eight he had seen.

DEFENDER IS OBSTINATE.
ATTEMPT TO GET HER INTO THE
 SHOP P,R0YED FRUxTBESs.

Whom the Boat Was Pulled or an Exami- nation Was Made of the Ways When it
 Was Found That Several of the Bolts Had Worked Loose Thus Preventing tho Progress of the Cradle.
 Providence, R. l., July 1.--The yacht Defender was pulled off the launching ways at Bristol, where she had been stuck since Saturday. at o'clock this afternoon by tug Right Arm. The big craft made a dozen intellectual efforts, but was finally successful. and the yacht moved off the cradle into deep water. The tug worked alone without assistance. and the pontoons from New port did not have to be used.
 An effort was made early this morn- ing to pull the Defender back into the shop again, but the effort was fruit less, as she did not move any more than when the Right Arm undertook to haul her off from the other end- The attempt was made by Captain Davis sending a large leading block
  into the south shop, where it was made solidly fast A good sized hawser was then made fast to the bits on the tug and the other end carried ashore, where it was rove round a block and the end carried to a windlass on the tug. A. strain was taken on the hawser and some of 1t hove in. The hawser began to stretch, but there was not the least sign of the boats coming. She was evidently as solid as a rock. The total weight of the Defender is 200 tons. Cap- tain Davis said that his tug hauled a big ship off the beach on the coast of South America a. short time ago through sand and the big ship came off easier than did the Defender. An examination of the cradle after the Defender was pulled off showed, as was supposed, several of the bolts in the launching ways worked up, thus preventing the progress of the cradle The trouble was really caused by hurrying the work the bolts not being properly driven in. The yacht was within eight feet of the ways when she stopped.
 The mast was stepped at 6 o'clock tonight, and the rigging will be put on without delay.
 The work of rigging the boat is going to be pushed from daylight to dark MT. Iselin informed a: New England Associated Press representative after the launch that he hoped that there. would be no further delay. He said he expected to have the Defender ready for trial trip off Newport beforet,t end of the week.
