The contest between the Senators and the
Giants yesterday ended in a draw, the
score standing ) to when Umpire Hunt
called the game at the close of the ninth
inning because of darkness. Inc visitors
at the end of the first half of the ninth in
ming found the score 5 to 3 against them
and as Gleason, the first man up, fouled
out to Mcclure, and Foster, next up,
grounded out to Carr. the game looked safe
for the Senator's The Giants had made
but seven hits off Killen up to that time.
Warner, the third man to bat in this in
ming, drove one between third and short,
and Gatans made a mess of Rusies ground
er, the big twirler being safe on a wide
throw. Van Haltren singled to left scor-
ing Warner, Van Haltern going to second
on Selbach's throw in. With a man on
third and second, and with but one run
needed to tie and two to win, killen found
himself in an unusually tight place. the
next bAtsman being Davis. 1t was grow
ing dark very rapidly, and k1llen was
therefore somewhat handicapped. He fail
ed to locate the plate and Davis filled the
nate, and Rusie waiAed in with the tieing
run. Seymour made a mighty effort for
single, but the best he could do was to pop
up Il little fly to Mcclure.
Rusie was rather easy for the Senators,
exhibiting little of his oId-time energy or
ability. The home team scored three runs
in the opening inning on MERGERS safe bunt
and singles by Setback Casey and Gatans.
They scored twice in the eighth on single
Rusie's tumble and Gatans' double to right.
The Giants scored twice in the fourth on

DISTRICT TENNIS TOURNEY.
Those Who VIII Aim for the Local
ChamDionnhfD,


Considerable speculation Is being INDUCED
in as to the chances of the various aspir-
ants for the championship of the District.
When the present champion. Mr.. J. c.
Goodfellow, received an appointment as
lieutenant in the regular army, this city
lost one of its strongest and most pronis-
ing tennis players His game had rapidly
improved, and it was hoped that he might
be heard from in some of the big tourna-
ments IN the north He will be unable to
defend the championship, it Is understood.
A great obstacle in the path of budding
players of this city is Mr.. Davidson, who
has for many years quietly squelched all
corners with absolute impartiality, adding
trophy after trophy to his collection, until
1t became almost an accepted certainty
that trophy championship embiemS were
Only for him in District events, when he
chose to enter, which he mostly did. There
was a genuine surprise when Mr.. Good
fellow wrested the title from him last fall,
and many looked forward to annual duels
between these two brilliant players. He
is playing the same hard game that has
worn ont som many opponents in hard
fought matches.
Among his likely opponents in the coming
tournament are Mr.. Geoghegan of Capitol
Hill. H. c. Coburn, the present holder of
the G. A. G. championship, and also mem
Der of the Bachelors Club. to which Mr..
Davidson belongs; DR.. GlaZebrook, an old
war horse, VINO mas returned 10 the tray
after many years of pasturage; Mike"
O'eLary, one of the cracks of the c. A. c.;
also Messrs. Campbell. Talliaferro and
Pomeroy of the same club. The Bachelors
Club, upon whose grounds the tournament
will be held contains many strong players
who will contest-A. G. Winner. G. P.
Parkes, Ralph Hills, E, E. Whiting and
Pierre Waggaman, as well as the Wilson
brothers. N. T. and Clarence r. 1t is re-
ported that the several High Schools may
be represented. as also Georgetown Uni
versty. The entries close Monday.

Charges and Counter CHARGES

special correspondence OF The Evening Star.
HYATTSVILLE, Md, October l, 1898.
j. {. Ellis, j. A. Yates and John BowIes
were arraigned before Justice Carr yester-
day evening on the charge of disturbing
the peace They were fined 81 and costs.
and were bound over to keep the peace.
The charge against them was made by
Richard Anderson. who lives about one
mile east Of this village. The alleged
cause for the complaint was stated TO be
that Ellis, Yates and Bowles had gone TO
Andersons house about 10 o'clock last Mon
day night and inquired if Harry c. Ander-
son, son of Richard Anderson. was at home
stating their mission was to obtain a re-
traction of uncomplimentary remarks made
by him against several ladies of the town
The father replied that Harry was not at
home, and, further. he was of age, and he
had no control over him. The visitors in
sisted, 1t is said that stop be put to the
sons alleged circulation of defamatory
stories, and insinuated that it was well he
was not at home.
The parties who went to Anderson's
house, 1t is understood, met young Ander-
son in Hyattsviile earlier in the evening
and demanded a retraction, but, il is said
he broke away from them after a struggle
and Went home
After the cases of Ellis, Yates and Bowles
We're disposed of, Anderson was arrested
and taken before Justice Bailey on the
charge of making threats against the life
of Yates. and Of carrying concealed weap-
ons. On the first charge he was fined 81 80
and costs, and on the latter he was held
under 500 bond to await the action of the
grand jury at Marlboro.
1t is understood that other criminal
charges viii be made against Anderson.

league will not affect US in the least. We
propose to continue the present circuit clear
up to Pueblo, Col, where we Will race on
October %. closing the circuit. We will
race Sunday, October 8. at st. Louis, and
again on Sunday, October -, at Denver,
Col. All of the places where the original
national circuit was scheduled have agreed
to hold race meets for the riders of our
union, and one or two other places have
been admitted. We will run the national
championship on the same lines as hereto
fore. The rider at the head of the table at
the close will be given the title of cham
pion, irrespective of the claims of others.
Next season it is possible that an entirely
new system of ascertaining the champion
will be adopted. We use the same system
of scoring because of the fact that the
season is nearly closed, and also because
of the fact that all the members in our
union are the men who stand 1T the head
of the list"

PRESIDENT EDDIE BALD

Eddie Bald, the president of the new
cycling organization, Is perhaps one of the
best known wheelmen in the country. He
has been the champion for several years,
and this winter will go on the stage as the
star in the new drama, "A IWlg OF Laurel,
the season of which opens about November
l. shortly after the close OF the racing
season. While the plans of the new Amer
lean Racing Cyclists Union are not fully
formed in detail, a general outline has been
made up.
In the first place, we will abolish the
limit to cash prizes" said he in converse
ton I'VE do not want to be limited to
race for certain sum when some race
meet promoters. anxious to get good
meet, will offer a large purse. There is
reason why we should be hampered in this
respect. The giving of larger prizes Will
not injure the sport. NO one can say that
such will be the case. Another innovation
that We will make Will be in the matter of
Sunday racing. We believe that such ought
to be optional with the rider. 1t is purely
a business transaction. There Is Sunday
base ball. Our country Is so big that there
is big difference of opinion in different
sections If -race-meet promoter desires
to give a Sunday race, and If the laws Of
the community permit 1t, and il the rider
is willing to race, i can hardly see where
any objections from outsiders ought TO
arise. g. 10
Another charge which we propose to
make is In the national circuit. The ma
tional circuit 1 regard as an Indispensable
adjunct to cycle racing, but l cannot see
why 1t should be made to extend over the
whole racing season. If rider joins the
circuit he ought to follow it. but where
the racing Is continuous a man does not
get an opportunitynof entering in big out
side race meets, where the prizes offered
are much larger than could be obtained at
any one twb circuit meets. We propose
to hold circuit which will run about three
months. That will mean plenty Of racing,
almost every other day, and during the
time racing will be lively all over the coun-
try. The new circuit will begin about July
and run through August and September.
That will leave the spring months and the
fall months open for the riders to go where
they may desire. 1t will also give the race
meet promoters a chance to offer large
prizes to secure good attractions. Sprint
racing is not dead by any means, and this
has been clearly demonstrated. Middle-dis-
lance racing might be all right but sprint
racing is bound to outlive 1t. After our
circuit closes it is likely that the men will
cling together and keep on riding, forming
practically circuit on their own accord.
out of thirty men who first signed our
papers two have failed to keep up their
agreement. The other twenty-eight men
are in this city. The two who dropped out.
or rather went back on their agreement,

THE RACING CYCLISTS

Perhaps the most wonderful five-mile
handicap race Of history was that run at
the Woodside meeting at Philadelphia last
Saturday night-wonderful owing to the
fact that not fall occurred on the i'm
perfectly lighted track. Twenty-three men
rode in the first heat and twenty-four In
the second, with sixteen in the final, and
in all three contests the fields punched
early, swinging around the track in solid
and unbroken mass. shifting frequently
and changing positions with lightning like
rapidity, as viewed in the changeable light.
1t was a grand sight, but to any one with
nerves anything but steady a terrible one.
The sweep of the great fields in the final,
when they came like a whirlwind to the
finishing tape, brought the large crowd to
its feet with a dread only expressed by the
entire silence of all. This was broken by
a cheer when the field finished in safety,

about and to clean out much OF the dead
wood. Next years meet will be given as
usual rather all the energy will be placed
into the promoting of one grand meet IN

lose money this year. but this was due to
