ToraI's Oner Considered.

Siboney, July 10, via Playa del Este,
july ll.--Genenll Shafter held a confer
ence with the American generals at the
front today concerning the offer made by
the Spanish commander to surrender San
tiago if the Spanish garrison was allowed
to march out with sidearms and have 20
miles start without molcstation. General
Toral agreed il this was accepted he
would not destroy the ships in the har
Dor, the ammunition in the forts or build
ings in the city. The majority Of the
generals, General Wheeler leading, were
in favor of acceptance Of these terms, on
the ground that the Spaniards can march
out TO the westward anyhow, .iid burn
the city and destroy all vessels, guns and
ammunition before leaving.

Playa del Este, Guantanamo Bay, July
s.-A Spanish soldier, terribly emaeisfed
and so weak that he could hardly walk,
was picked up by men from the United
States gunboat Annapolis today at a
point near the entrance to the upper bay.
According to his story, there are many
Spanish soldiers in Guantanamo in the
same condition of starving. He says there
is absolutely nothing to eat there, but
that the Spaniards are daily told that
IL they surrender to the Americans they
will be murdered.

MANY ACCESslONS EXPECTED.
Important Meeting OF the American
Cyclists Union.

An important meeting of the American
Racing Cyclists Union, the newly organ
lied body of professional riders, Will be
held this evening a o'clock at the Hotel
Regent. This will be the first meeting since
the organization of the union was per-
fected last Tuesday at Philadelphia AS
result considerable business of Importance
will be brought before the meeting tonight
A big increase in the membership is ex-
pected. and announcements in the shape OF
support from track owners and manufac-
turers is looked for. Meetings of the new
union will be held from time to time along
he circuit, but the meeting tonight Will
perhaps be the most interesting of them all.
At the meeting tonight a good many OF
the local riders will join the movement.
Among the number will be Fl. R. Steenson,
Charles Cause. William Throop, Billie Sims
and possibly some others. The first three
famed riders participated in the meet Sat
urday. Harry z. Greer, E. L. Wilson, Lee
Counselman, c. j. Mueller and r. L.
French were entered, but did not ride.
Besides the admission Of candidates. ap-
plications from different sections of the
country being received, the union will out
| line its proposed work, and take some ac-
| ton most likely on constitution and by
| laws. Reports from tracks that favor the
| movement will be received, the president,

these days, but two victories in one day
have been a long time coming to Washing

Tho signing of Pitcher DuEkle and First
Baseman Davis will prove a ten-strike fer
Manager Irwin Dunkle will do well with
proper encouragement, and Harry Davis
has few superfors at the initial bag, but he
has been handicapped the past season by
sickness.
Little DeMont says second base is
peaches to play for a seasoned short
stop. and he is nearly correct when Wrig-
ley's work is considered. "Zeke" has yet
to make his first error at the second bag
and has had about twenty-five chances.
Gus weighing certainly pulled himself TO-
Sether in the second game Saturday. But
four hits were made off Of Augustus, and
the Giants are quite few at the bat.
Buck" Freeman will nearly lead the big
leagues batsmen when the final figures are
all in. He and Tom DAILY are now in the
lead. but OF course neither have played the

TIE Brooklyns lost 16 per cent in the per-
censage table last week, while Washington
gained IL. The present series in Brooklyn
may decide which of the two clubs will oc-
cupy the eleventh position at the end of
the season.
Notwithstanding the booming little Casey
Is receiving, his work at third demon
strates that his right position is behind the
lat. He makes good plays, but lacks
steadiness in pinch. "Jud' Smiths work
at the third corner has been an eye-opener
for the Washington fans" as he has been
about the best they have seen for many
seasons. The newspaper writers inside the
Eastern League circuit all concede that
Smith was the best third baseman in that
or ganiZation.
Saturday night Manager Irwin notified
President Young that he had concluded to
retain Players Freeman, Casey and Baker,
who were drafted from the Toronto club
under certain conditions.
Brooklyn has notified the leagues preSt-
dent that they have drafted Mcfarland of
the Montreal Gray of Buffalo, Morse and
Kelly of Ottawa Cassidy of Providence and
Cockman and Fertsch of Reading.
Cleveland has drafted from the Western
League Inf1elder Burke. who finished TIE
season with Minneapolis, and Outielder
Beecher Of the Mansfield Ohio, club. Burke
is the third baseman who started the sea-
son with the Western Association, and was
recommended to Mr.. Wagner by Ted SuIli-
van. Proctor, the local player. who was
with Dubuque, also speaks highly Of Burke.

THE REVOLT AGAINST FHE |. 4. ".
Opening Race Meeting of the New
Organization.
ON THE FOOT BALL FIELD
Record of the Clubs,

At Weehawken the Senators and the
Brooklyn team played a postponed game
yesterday. the Dodgers winning in the
ninth inning, with one man gone by to 3.
Baker and Dunno were the opposing twirl-
ers, and it was about an even thing between
them eight hits being charged up against the
former and nine against the Brooklyn man.
With the score 3 to 3 at the close of the
eighth inning, the Senators went out In
rapid order in their half of the ninth. but
Magoon, the first man up for the Dodgers
in their half, walked to first Days hit to
Smith forced Magoon. but it was too late
to double up DAILY, and he started on a
steal for second. Farrells throw to Smith
went high to center, and as Mercer allowed
the ball to pass him, Daily ran home with
the winning run.
Anderson, lately with the Senators, twice
cut his former associates out of d run. In
the second inning, after they had scored d
run in the first on MERGERS triple and Sell
bach's single, the Senators had three men
on the bases with one out. Baker sent a
fly to Anderson in left, whose fine throw to
the plate caught Farrell. In the fourth
Freeman's triple, Smiths fly to Griffin.
MagoonS error and singles by Wrigley and
Baker sent two men across the plate, and
but for AndersonS second fine throw Carr
would have scored a third run in the same
inning. The Brooklyn people scored twice
to right and La Chance putting the ball
over the left field fence In the seventh
Days triple and Al Wagner'S double sent
another Dodger home. Score:

SENATOR'S WON BOTH.
Giants Were Very Easy Prey Satur-
day Afternoon.

The Senator's made it three straight by
winning both games of the doubleheader
Saturday with the alleged Giants from
New York. Each game was won in the cas-
lest manner by Twins men. Meekin in the
first and Doheny in the second contest be-
ing hit hard. Dineen pitched for the home
team in the opening gone and, while he
was touched for nine hits, Doyle getting
triple and homer, he kept the hits well
scattered that the visitors were never able
to score two runs in an inning, the home
people winning by to 4. In the second
contest weighing pitched one of his old-time
games allowing the New Workers but four
hits and two runs in the seven innings
played. The Senators hit Doheny for ten
hits, scoring eight runs. The game was
called at the end of the seventh inning be-
cause of darkness. Joyce did not play in
either game, his place at third being taken
by Gettig.
