LONDON LETTER.

Lady Anne Coyeptrys marriage to
Prince Victor Dhuieep Singh was inter-
eeting for many reasons. First o. all, il
was genuine love match. the pair being
quite absurdly devoted TO each other
and having had TO display constsncy and
patience under various trying deiays:
then the bride is the daughter OF an offic-
cial of the royal household: also the
rumor bad gone about that the display
of jewels would be magnificent. which
proved to be the case. 1t was really a
charming wedding. blu. l was much
amused at the naive disappointment of
certain good people who did not know
the prince by sight. They had evidently
expected romantic-looking dusky hero
whereas he, though very Oriental in
type, could not be called handsome. and
his stoutness and (dare l whisper it!)
absence Of neck seemed to grieve theee
worthless greatly. Now he is thor
oughly good fellow and amiable. which
is far better :han being beautiful. SO !

CIVIL SERVICE FIRST
And Municipal Ownership Afterwards
is Agreed Upon.

Detroit Mich, Aug. 5.-The League
of American municipalities adopted the
report of its special auditing committee,
censuring its secretary, B. F. GilkisOn
of New York, for Irregularities in hand
ling of the leagues funds. The league,
however, reelected the secretary in
consideration of his services in perfect
ing the organization and instructed him
to hereafter turn over his funds to the
treasurer.
Secretary GilxisOn received the votes
of 27 cities, against 13 for John H. Ma
honey, of Indianapolis, and one for
President MacVicar.
Mayor Black, of Columbus, Ohio, was
elected president, receiving the votes of
81 cities, against the votes of IS cities
cast for Mayor Maybury, of Detroit.
Mayor Taylor of Bridgeport, Conn,
was elected treasurer.
The newly elected trustees are: Mayor
Smithe of Charleston, S. c., and Mayor
Ashley, of New Bedford, Mass.
Syracuse, N. Y, was chosen as next
years convention city.
The advisa bility of municipal owner
ship of public service industries is ap-
parently no longer questioned by mem
bers. While all apparently had come
to favor the proposition, the question
of how to effect a transfer of plants
from private to public ownership re-
mains a knotty problem, varying gen
orally according to the local conditions
It seems to be the cOncenSuS of opinion
that local civil service ought to be ap-
piled as a primary requisite before mu-
nicipal ownership can be generally ana

Oshkosh, Wis, Aug. 5.-Rioting has
been resumed by the striking wood

and maltreat non-union workmen as
they left the mill. Chief Weisbrod, with
a force of police, succeeded in preserv-
ing a semblance of order until dark
ness set in, when a serious onslaught
on the police was made in which several
officers received bruises and cuts and
Chief Weisbrod was brought to his
knees by a stone striking him above the
heart. Several shots were fired in the
air and the police finally withdrew.
At 6 o'clock this morning the strikers
again congregated and dubbed and stoned
workmen trying to reach the Morgan mill
Thirty policemen were dispatched to rein
when the police arrived the crowd set on
them with sticks and stones in a vicious
manner The police used their clubs freely
and the street was finally cleared at the
score of arrests, including nine of the Wo-
men ringleaders.
The non-union crew finally reached the
mill under police protection and the fac

My Dear Mr.. Secretary:

approval of General Wheeler. We earnest
" hope you will send us-most of the reg
ulars and at any rate the cavalry divis-

as good as any regulars and three times
as good as any state troops, to Porto

mel Roosevelt:
Your letter of 23rd is received. The reg
ular army. the volunteer army and the
rough riders have done well. but I sug-
gest that, unless you want to spoil the eff

no invidious comparisons. The rough
riders are no better than other volunteers.
They, had an advantage in their arms, for
which they ought to be very grateful.

EXCITING GAME.
The Wichita Team Makes It's Bow
Here and Almost Defeats Topeka


NcCloskey and his Irish Immunes
came up from Wichita and tied with
Topeka yesterday, the score being 10
to TO-
Callahan for Wichita and McGreevy
for Topeka pitched good ball but it was
a slugging match. Topeka got 13 hits
and Wichita an even dozen.In the sixth
inning the score was Z to 3 in favor of
Topeka. The bases were full and
Hoover for Wichita put the ball over
the fence and tied the score. In the
ninth the score was to 9 in favor of
Wichita and with two men on bases,
Thiel pounded out a three base hit and
then scored himself on a single.
Russell Hall at second for Wichita
was formerly with the St.Louis Browns
and by the way he struck out it would
be thought that national league pitch
ing was not equal to what we have
here.
Patsy Cahill. who was once upon
time a member of the St. Louis Browns
and is now relegated to Wichita, UNI
pired the game. He is the best umpire
that has graced the diamond this sea-
son and when he makes a decision he
will hear no talk
Eyler will pitch for Topeka today and
McGreevy Saturday unless Mauck is
in better shape. For Wichita it will
probably be Bevis in the box Saturday.
