GARCIA RELENTS.
Shows Signs of a Willingness to
Make Up.

New York. Aug. IA special to the
Herald from Santiago de Cuba says:
General Garcia who in anger because
Santiago, after its surrender was not
turned over to the Cubans severed all
relations with the United States army
and withdrew his troops, indicates a
desire to reconsider his action in a let
ter just received by General Shafter.
The letter is dated at Gibara, August >.
1t IS in response to a request made by
General Miles July 10, when he was
planning his expedition to Porto Rico
that General Garcia detail fifty Gu
bans from his army to accompany the
expedition as guides and scouts.
In his reply General Garcia said that
as he understood that General Miles
had already sailed he supposed it would
be too late to comply with his request.
He stated, however, that he is willing
to furnish the fifty men if they still are
wanted, and enclosed an order for them

TOPEKA DEFEATS WICHITA
Small Crowd Sees a Game Which Was
in Accord With the Weather.

McClosky's Giants were defeated by
Kid Fears aggregation Thursday in a
game that was rather uninteresting.
Callahan who has a sore arm was put
in to pitch for Wichita and he was hit
hard. In the seventh inning Bailey and
ThieI each put one over the fence The
game stood one to nothing until the
sixth inning when Wichita scored on an
error. In the seventh inning the fire
works commenced and Topeka scored
five runs. This was repeated in the
eighth while Wichita scored one in
each of the innings
There were few star plays in the
game The weather was the hazy
stupid kind that puts every one in har-
mOny with it and there was not ball
player on the ground who did not play
as if it was his last day on earth and
he wanted to make 1t as long as pos
sible. The attendance was small and
this may have had something to do
with the lack of ginger" in the game.
The best ball team Topeka has had for
years is not getting the right kind of
support from the public and it is no
wonder the managers and all the play
ers feel somewhat discouraged.
Following is the detailed score Of the
game:
Topeka ..............0 0 0O 5 oil
Wichita .............O s.
