THE AMERICAN WON.
EngIand's Tennis Player, MahOney,
Defeated by Bob Wrenn.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10-Champion Bob
Wrenn achieved a victory over Mahony to-
day in the feature match of the interna-
tional tennis tourney 1t was the only is
sue where America and England met, and
the result was eminently satisfactory to
the select assemblage which graced the
courts of the Onwentsia Club, of Lake
Forest. In the other matches Larned de-
feated Collins, the Western champion, in
the easiest style imaginable, the score be-
ing 6-1, CO. and Nisbet defeated Eaves in
two ong-drawn-out deuce sets. Wrenn and
Mahony appeared upon the courts for the
final match of the day. The American
champion was in good form, and gained
many aces by brilliant net play, while his
opponent was slow in warming up and APP
peared slightly nervous. Wrenn, therefore,
took the opening set with comparative ease
by a score of 6-2. The second set brought
out tennis par excellence, and required
eighteen games for a decision. Wrenn eX-
ecuted clever crosS-court returns and
lobbed we'll when put to the defense. Ma
hony, on the other hand, was strong in his
ground strokes and volleyed with good eff
feet Games ran to sail, and deuce was
called six times in the following game
Wrenn winning. The champion promptly
ran the following game to Above, was over
hauled by MahOny only to finally win the
game, set and match on Melted ball. The
matches for tomorrow are MahOny and
Nisbet, Wrenn and Collins, Larned and
caves.

DETROIT, Aug. 10.-Ornament easily
proved his superiority in the international
Derby to-day and won the star feature of
the Detroit Jockey Clubs opening day at
Crosse Pointe with the greatest ease. The
attendance was about 5000 Much of the
interest in the derby as a contest was
taken away by the easy manner in which
Ornament won. He took the lead at the
start, was never extended and won in
gallop in 2:36. The start was struggling,
but in d half furlong they were closely
punched and ran in close company to the
stand, Ornament leading by a length, with
Dare II second and Meadowthorpe third,
Moncreith trailing, two lengths back. Go
ing around the upper turn Dare made a
futile attempt to take the track, but Orna-
ment easily shook him off. Down the back
stretch the order remained unchanged.
Dare by this time Soundly beaten and
had dropped back. At the lower end of the
stand Moncreith gave it up, and this left
the race a procession, in which Ornament
crossed the line three lengths in front,
Meadowthorpe just as easily second and
Moncreith third. The race was worth
IS, O65 of which $7065 went to the first horse
500 to the second and $500 to the third A
protest against paying the money earned
by Ornament was filed by McGuigan, on
the ground that Ornament had been Vari-
ously entered this year as the property of
Charles Patterson. Charles T. Patterson
and Charles II. Patterson & Co.

EASTON. Pa, Aug. 1.-TWO men were
frightfully injured at the stone quarry back
of Mount jefferson this afternoon. Martin
Lills and George Weir, of South Icaston,
had laid a twelve-foot hole with dynamite,
put something occurred to prevent the
back and began digging out the load with
a ten-foot iron bar When the bar struck
the dynamite there was a terrific explosion
and the men were sent flying through the
air. The other men in the quarry ran to
their assistance after they had recovered
and bleeding from numerous ugly wounds.
Liliiss right hand and Weir's left hand
We're blown completely off and the fingers
of their other hand hung by shreds of torn
flesh. They will probably die

The Kansas insurance Row.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Aug TO-
Judge John Williams of the Federal Court
who issued the order restraining the state
officials of Kansas from interfering with
the officials or business of the Mutual Life
Insurance Company, in that State, was
asked to-day whether, in view of the quo
warranto proceedings instituted in the
state courts by the attorney general of
Kansas, he would cite the state officials
for contempt of court. He replied: "A quo
warranto would be a perfectly legitimate
or proper move by the state officials with
out bringing them directly open to a charge
of contempt of court. | would be glad to
see the Supreme Court of Kansas take some
action in the matter and it viii then be
known Just how il stands"

There were a thousand people at the
grounds yesterday.
Pittsburg offered $1,000 and two players
for Shortstop Dahlen, but Arson would not
even consider it.

and taken nineteen out of the last twenty
three. That's ball playing
DR.. Harley Parker wrenched his knee
few days ago, and is now out of amateur
games for the rest of the season.
Miller was on the bench yesterday, though
not in uniform He doesn't look any the
worse for that collision. He and Letcher
will both be in the game again in few
days
at Cincinnati. This will be the last game
on Cincinnati grounds, with the exception
of one game in September. The usual one
dollar excursion will be run.
That was a lively rally the Brewers made
in the last inning at Columbus yesterday,
and Rettger was chased from the box. Ihey
couldn't quite reach, however, as the Co
lumbus lead was just enough to win out
Chicagoans are all fond of Callahan, the
old Kansas City tWirler. Arson considers
him the find of the year. He has won more
games for the Colts than any other pitcher
on the list, and h9sI Tnade great record
for himself as a fielder.
There was a funny play yesterday in the
first inning, With one out Boyle got a
hit and Ball drew the only base on balls
GOar gave Parrot lifted a fly to left
which the wind kept pulling in and away
from Mccarthy though 1t looked as II ne
might get it. Boyle was afraid to run, and
finally when the ball dropped safe and he
was forced to third, Mccarthy caught it
on the bound and threw him out at that
base Deadly then few to Flynn.
Connie Mack is one of the most popular
men in the Western League, as he uses his

his team during the season, although some
what disappointed at the result of the pres
ent Eastern trip When asked his opinion
as to the result Of the league race, he said
that Indianapolis looked to be a winner,
but Columbus has good chance to beat
the Hoosiers out, judging from the way the
Senators have thrown the Hoosiers down in
the series up to date. Mack thinks that
Columbus and Indianapolis will surely be
the first two and believes that his team will

BUFFALO FOR INDIANAPOLIS.
Strong Competitor for the 1898 L.. a
w. Meet Ont of the Why.

In the last days of the Philadelphia meet
the indianapolis men received a bad scare
when New York and Buffalo appeared as
competitors for next years meet. Buffalo
was the more formidable of the two. There
was a hasty conference of the HOLSTERS.
After talking things over, they breathed
easier and set about in a systematic way
to win Buffalo and New York over to their
side. o. F. Van Scklen tells how 1t was
accomplished. An agreement was made
whereby indianapolis is to work for Bur
falo's claims for the meet Of 1899 BY this
agreement New York and Buffalo agreed
to support Indianapolis in the contest for
next years meet. Mr. Van Sicklen says
that New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado,
New Jersey, Illinois and enough otherl
States to give about two-thirds vote areI
some of them so back on their pledges theI
