yesterday Charles e. Sands. former cham
pion of the United States and France met
Ernest A. Thompson, ex-champion of the
New York Racquet and Tennis Club. and
the match resulted in the former winning.
The chief feature Of the match was the eff
fective railroad service of each player,
which showed that honors were about even
in this respect, but in the receiving of the
service Mr. Sands was more brilliant than
his opponent by his volleying, which was
exceptionally good.
In the afternoon Joshua Crane, jr., met
Hewitt Morgan and found him an easy VIC
TIM Mr.. Crane was at his best. His serv-
ice was superb and found the nick repeated
ly. Although Mr.. Morgan distinguished
himself by very clever volleying. Mr..
Cranes quickness and craftiness were the
means of his disposing of Mr.. Morgan and
thus winning the match inside Of an hour.
Mr. Crane meets Mr.. Sands in the finals
this afternoon.

$4,000 in the Philadelphia club and had
advanced $1l 600 to the St. Louis club in
