American Won hi Doubles.
The Americans won the doubles in the
International tennis tournament yesterday
on the St. George cricket courts in a
walkover. The American team was COM
posed of e~x-Champion o. s. Campbell,
who lost the championship only by default
to r. D. Wrenn. These men had never
played doubles together before and were
thus considerably handicapped, while Ma
honey and caves are old partners. This
made the visitors the favorites and cons
sequently all were surprised at the Amer
leans win. The great difference between
the English n American style of play
ing was very plain. The visitors re-
turned everything with great steadiness,
but it awaited for naught against the
Americans; they kept the attack almost
continually and the visitors played de-
~fensive, but without result. In the first
set the E%nglishmen held the service and
won every game except the fifth, when
Wrenn and Campbell scored against
Mahoney's service. A clean volleyed ace
by Campbell and three errors by Ma
honey gave the set to them. In the sec
ond set Campbell and Wrenn braced up
and won more easily. The third set was
more strongly contested, but the Ameri-
cans proved the victors. Score

They Failed to Caucus,

Just as Judge Philbrook was about to
declare Saturday evning's Republican
caucus adjourned, Col. I. S. Bangs
went upon the stage, and holding a pa
per on high. said in a loud voice. that
he held in his hand a call for a citi
zens caucus. and asked those who de-
sired to go into citizens's movement
to remain in the hall. This, then, was
the expected. 1t having become known
that Col. Bangs had circulated paper
among the Republicans of the city and
had obtained q signatures for call
for citizens caucus, Saturday even

didn't sign this, and the colonel ap-
peared very anxious that his hearers
should understand that he was not on

nominated him, but he declined. In
turn Frank L. Thayer. J. j. Foley. f.

asked the colonel.

Finally, becoming discouraged, Colonel
Bangs declared: IF we cannot find

gracefully as possible under the cir
cumstances.
Thus ended the much talked of citi-
zens' movement in this city. The
Democrats were not anxious to go into
such caucus as was seen when their
own straight caucus was called few
