WESTERNER DEFEATED.
Collins Falls Before Davis In Tennis
Semi-finals.

Newport, r. l., Aug. 19.-The interest
in the national lawn tennis tournament
todays centered in the semi-final
matches. The contest between the
westerner, Kreigh Collins, and Dwight
Davis. the Harvard player, proved a
surprise even to admirers of the Har-
ward man, for he fairly ran away with
his opponent in the first two sets. His
Smashing was terrific and left Collins
little chance to save himself. The west
ern ex-champion pulled out four games
in the first set. but the second ended
6-1 in favor OF Davis.
The third set developed into a fierce
and long struggle. Davis kept up his
smashing tactics with a speed that
seemed to bewilder his opponent. Col
Inns scored, however. and for the first
time in the match seemed to guage
Davis play. Deuces resulted. but Davis
started in with renewed force, and
won, So.
The Paret- Ware match furnished ex-
citing sport. The first was a deuse set
resulting in favor of Paret, 10. The
second went to Paret, 6-2. In the third
set Ware made better showing than
in the preceding, which Paret won. 81.
This will bring Davis and Ware to-
gether in the finals.

Boston, Aug. 19.-The concluding
races of the meet at Charles River park

dragged so badly that the late events

SAMOAN RUMORS DENIED.
Secretary Morgan Says There Has
Been No Fighting Recently.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 19.-Edwin
W. Morgan. secretary of the Samoan
commission, who is in this city, said
today:
There are two unfounded reports re-
garding Samoan affairs which have
never been adequately contradicted
The first is that there has been fight
ing in Samoa since the commissions
left. This report know to be without
foundation, because only one dispatch
has been received from the islands
since We left, and it did not refer to
the alleged fighting. The report came
from a passenger on steamer between
Australia and Victoria, B. c., who pro-
fessed 10 have got it from the officers
of the German warship Fake The
Fake left Samoa about six weeks be-
fore the commission did.
The other report l refer to is that
there has been serious differences be-
tween the members of the commission
and that Baron Won Sternherg had
made efforts To arrange an understand
ing with Mr.. Tri1> to the disadvantage
of the British commissioner. Nothing
of the sort was attempted. Both Judge
Trip and the baron are too honorable
and too experienced in diplomacy to
contemplate such a thing.
THE whole commission was Animal
ed by desire to bring about the most
satisfactory solution of the Samoan
trouble without reference TO the pre-
judices of the various nations inter-
ested. There was no thought of two
of the commissioners combining
against the other This ridiculous story
had its origin in the fact that the Brit
ish commissioner did not return on the
Badger with his colleagues. Mr.. Elliott
went TO New Zealand 10 visit rela-
tive. and will reach the United States
by the next steamer from there

And the Junctionites lost no time in
getting them in that lovely sixth in
ming. They warmed Brig South up IN
style that he viii not forget soon.
Straight at him they fired them red
hot from the gun, and after the first
few volleys he got so he would dodge
just as soon as ne had tossed up the
ball One of those warm ones from Gin
Inns bat caught Smith where his dinner
ought to have been and doubled him up
for few moments, but he soon recov-
cred. So fast did they keep coming
that Smith lost his head completely,
and the Ogdens ran around the bases
as they chose, while Smith stood - the
middle clinging to the ball as though

ming Melted seven runs for the Ogdens,
and they grabbed four mere in the fol-
lowing inning to put a clincher on the
game. Then they rested until the ninth
inning, when Gimlin drove out a long
home run into right center, just to
show how easy ii WAS.
Paralysis seemed to have taken the
Westerns after the fatal sixth. They
seemed to have had all the tucks taken
out of them, and Brother HansfOrd
had them right where he wanted them.
The Ogden infield also took a brace,
and the Westerns got but one more
run. That was in the eighth. when
McFariane. Margetts and Ryan singled
in succession. They could only get the
one. however. for there were TWO men
out, and Scare could only drive one to

at the hands of Mccormack did not
surprise him. He advised Mccoy at
the time to quit the ring for long
time, in order to give his shattered
nervous system an opportunity to re-
cuperate. Today DIR. Lewis stated it
as his opinion that Mccoy would never
be champion. for the reason that his
constitution is so undermined that he
cannot stand punishment.

TRIAL RACES AT NEW YORK.
Columbia and Defender Try Conclu-

Newport, r. l., Aug. 19,-Captain
Woodbury. Kane said last night that it
was practically settled that the first
trial race will take place off Newport
on Sept. 10. He said the Newport course
had been selected because of its proX-
unity to Bristol, to which the yachts
would have to go in case of an acct
dent The towing to New York and out
to the Sandy Hook course. he said,
would consume a great deal of time,
unnecessarily.
Mr.. Iselin of the Columbia, it was
learned. feels that he has no time what
ever to spare, which is one of the most
important reasons for holding the trial
races off Newport. The time which
would be consumed in getting the CO.
lumbia to New York would practically
be wasted, and he cannot afford TO lose
it. In fact, every minute is now needed
in getting the Columbia's new mast in,
testing it and otherwise getting the
boat into thorough racing trim. Be
