HE is TOO MUCH FOR HOBART
Doherty Plays So Superior n Game
That Interest Lays at
Newport.

NEWPORT, r. J., Aug. @-Twenty-one
matches, practically clearing up the first
round of the national lawn tennis cham
pionship at the Casino. were played today
and the sport as a rule was dull and unin-
teresting, With a few exceptions the
matches were all settled in straight sets.
The committee chose to feature the match
between II. L. Doherty, champion of all
England, and Clarence Hobart, one of the
veteran American players, but even this
failed to interest a large crowd, as Hobart
was considerably beneath the Englishman
In ability.
Tomorrow exciting work is anticipated,
especially as the English players will meet
Ward and Davis for the championship in
doubles.
The match between H. L. Doherty and
Hobart resulted as follows:

Nebraska FusiOnists Want Him
 to Accept Nomination

If He Consents There is Little Doubt That Harmony Can be Accom- pllshed-There VIII be a
 Dozen Candidates.

Grand Island, Neb.. June 92-The Dem ocratic and Popullst state conventions will be held in this city Tuesday and al- ready the question of whether fusien cn the state ticket will be accomplished is a topic of earnest discussion on both sides. Several rartJ lead ITS hope to et- feet a combination Of nominations and platforms that will be acceptable te thu fusion forces, ana argue that such m ar- iangement Is the only ono which assures tie election of the ticket.
 The question of whether W. J. Bryan will accept the nomination for governor is one on which. perhaps, depends the possibility of a combination ticket Lit tie doubt is expected that If Mir Bryan shall permit his name to be used the rest will be easily accomplished. Former Senator William V Allen will go to the convention with the expressed intention of securing MT. Bryan's nomination.
 With MT. Bryan eliminated from the possibilities, 1t is hard to predict the &C., ton of the two conventions, but many believe there will be two full tickets in the field There will be a dozen candi- dates, many of whom have already se- cured endorsements by county conventions Among the Popuists mentioned for the head of the ticket are Senator Allen, pr. F. E. Coffin of Ord Congressman Suth- erland and J. c. Sprecher. Prominent Democratic possibilities are former Att tcrney General Smyth, ". H. Thompson and Victor Nifquain.

 Shall Pay Chinese Indemnity.

l London, June 23.-The Pekin cores 1 pondent of the Times. commenting In l dispatch on the question of whether the l payment of the Chinese indemnity to the 1 foreign powers be made in gold or silver, l says the American interpretation of the protocol meets with approval from the other governments concerned, and that a reconsideration should show the United States that injustice is done to China by listening to her appeals ad misericordiam.
 The mandarins, goes the correspondent. welcome the indemnity as a means of squeezing the people while placing the odium therefor on the foreigners. Cases which constantly occur prove that Chin ese officials are wringing from the peo- pie almost thrice the amount required to pay the indemnity and the fall in silver. although great.
