and an increased attendance. Ten matches
were run off; the second round in sing es
was completed with an early morning match
and the round-robin wes started in coed
style. The round-robin began with match
between Herrick and Seabury, the Michigan
champions, with Herrick winning at g. SO
Sc. The Bond-Myers match was a disap-
pointment, the two Chicago favorites playing
at noon when the spectators had all gene.
The two sets went to Bond easily at GA rs
An interesting match of the afternoon was H.
Belden VS.. G. Belden, and to the surprise of
the onlooKers the younger brother wen. He
failing to win point IN the first two games,
and only scoring one point in the third game.
1t was evidently not an easy matter for the
ex-chamrion to face his brother as an op-
ponent. and did not play in his best spirit,
although he by no means gave the ma CHI
away The young fellow lest his grip after
The set was carried to deuce and 60 The
second set was GA. H. Bslden then played
jayne, but was beaten, although he won
three love games in the first set. G. Be!den
met Hale and won, although the tenn S by the
two local fayorites was only half good from
the grand stand point Of view.
The rCund-robin doubles were called ont
and Seabury and Herrick, in meeting Bond
and Myers demonstrated their strength in
team work. The match was long and well
played, the younger team from Michigan CIV
ing very pretty exhibition of net and S de
line work. They won the first set. Bond and
Myers took the second, Seabury and Her
rick took the third, deuce set.
Having beaten the Chicago team at doubles,
the Michigan players then played two match
es in singles and found more, than their
equal, for Myers defeated Herrick, ard Bond
took two love sets from Seabury. A second
match in doubles was played by Jayne and
G. Belden vs.. Hale and H. Beld n. This
brought two familiar teams in the courts,
and it was no surprise that Jayne and G.

The young women players did net arrive as
expected, and the exhibition match in doubles
will be put off until Friday afternoon, al

JUDGE REA's STORY.
The Day In the Phillips Case Large
Iy Devoted 10 1t.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. S.-Referee c. w.
Purple occupied this morning in taking the
evidence of Judge Rea in the supreme court
proceedings looking to the settlement of the
Democratic nomination for sheriff of Henne-
pin county. The testimony was very direct
and positive. The judge admitted that at
one of the first counts Conroy had 240 votes
counted and Phillips 2S9. The Conroy bal
lots never left the table, while some of those
cast for Phillips were placed away from the
table. Afterward, when they were counted
there was an increase of ten votes over the
last count for Phillips, the total giving three
more ballots than the convention should poll.
There was considerable discussion, Judge
Rea being of the opinion that the votes
should be announced, but Messrs. Foote and
Pratt did not think so. and Judge Rea con-
scented TO a unanimous report in the inter-
est of harmony. which declared the ballot a
foul and not to be counted. No other
report of tellers was ever made, and the tel
lerS left the stage and abandoned the ballots
on the table. The next day Judge Rea made
other members of the committee, who never
came together again. and told how he had
understood the balloting of the day before.
No one had ever announced the first first day
or previous to the time the tellers left, who
was ahead in the count.
From present indications the hearing will
last considerable time 1t has taken
full day to find out all that Judge Rea knew
as teller. and there are two more tellers,
besides other witnesses, to examine.

Board of Equalization.
BISMARCK. N. D., Aug 3.-(special)-
The state board of equalization, consisting
of Gov. Briggs. States Attorney Hannum,
State Treasurer Nichols, Attorney General
Cowan and Commissioner of Agriculture
Thomas, at today's session passed resoiu-
ton adding over $4C00,000 to valuation on
railroad property in the state. A raise was
expected by the railroads, but not so great
one and they protested, but the resolution
was passed as agreed upon. G.. S. Fernal
tax commissioner of the Northern Pacific
K. a: Wilkinson, of the Great Northern. and
the board and made addresses, asking that no
radical increase in value be made. 1t was
urged that the roads were, already assessed
high enough, that many branch lines were
not paying much more than operating eX-
penses and that any radical increase Of as
sessment would raise the valuation of rail-
paid by private persons
Heretofore the railroads in the state have
PAID taxes on an average valuation of So, 900
a mile. The resolution, passed today makes
the average valuation little over So 900. The
Great Northern and Northern Pacific are as
sessed $1,000 mile fiat on their main lines
mileage the increase falls heaviest upon them
They do not object SO much to paying the
increased tax to the state, but in many Of

Up Certain Streets.

MINNEAPOLIS. Aug. S.-The city Of Min
neapolis has a fight its hands with Levi
NJ Stewart the agressor. This morning
Judge Babcock, representing Mr.. Stewart,
secured the signature of Judge Simpson to
an order to show cause why the city should
not be restrained from proceeding with GER
tain Improvements which materially affect
the property and purse of Mr.. Stewart
According to the complaint accompanying
the order. the plaintiff asserts that the city
of Minneapolis is about to tear up the streets
to a considerable extent in the vicinity of
the property of the plaintiff at Hennepn ave-
nue. and Fourth street. and he resists such
action. The city, he claims, already has all
the sewer and water main capacity it needs
in that vicinity, and to put in more is arbi-
trary and without any just cause. It is fore
ing residents in that portion of the city
to bear burdens which might properly go to
other sections. and for those reasons the
courts are asked to stop the work
The matter will be before the court Aug. s,
with Judge Harrison on the bench.
