FOR WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Norfolk and Washington Steamers to
Be Equipped.

Mr.. John Callahan, manager of the Nor
folk and Washington line of steamers is
arranging. 1t is stated, to have the steam
ers of his line equipped with wireless
telegraphy. and 1t is only question of a
few weeks before the boats will be able to
keep In touch with the home office here at
all times. The system of Prof. Fessenden,
who has q station in this city at the foot
of Sth street, will be installed, and beyond
the running of the wires from a flag staff
to the instruments no change in the steam
ers will be necessary. The Norfolk and
Washington steamers will be the first YES
sells in the United States, If not in the
world, engaged in inland passenger traffic
to be equipped with wireless biography.
and the workings of the plant will be
watched with interest by steamboat men
throughout the country. The delay of the
steamers in the heavy ice on bay and river
this winter ia the prime reason Manager
Callahan has for installing the wireless on
his boats. From the time they leave Nor
folk until Indian Head is reached on the
up trip and after Indian Head Is passed on
the down trip. steamers are unable to COM
municate with this city. Mr.. Callahan
wishes to have 1t 80 fixed that he can find
out at any time where the boats are, and II

NEW TENNIS TROPHY.
Father Of Wylie Grant Donates Cup
for Big Scotch Event.

1t is probable that new cup emblemaaic
of the North of Scotland lawn tennis cham-
pionshp will be the gift of an American.
The old trophy was lifted last season oy
virtue of three consecutive wins by Wylte
Cameron Grant of the New York Lawn
Tennis Club. His father. Louis ]. Grant,
at the time OF his sons victory asked that
the committee let him know when the club
held its meeting to decide upon a new
trophy.
This was done last week from Elgin.
Scotland. where the tournament Is held
each year, the letter written by Secretary
Norris Mackay. being as follows:
I'VE had a committee meeting Of the ten
mis- club with regard to getting up new
challenge cup for next years tournament
and We decided to lay the matter before
the meeting of the club. to be held within
the next six weeks. You were kind enough
at the close of the tournament last year to
ask me to write to you on the subject as
soon as we had our committee meeting. ana
to promise that you would give us a dona-
tton toward the new cup. l should be glad
IL you will be good enough to let me know
what donation you can see your way to
give. as 1t will facilitate matters greatly
to have something definite to put before
the meeting of the club
Mr.. Grant said that as his son had been
remarkably successful in his play abroad,
much more so than in this country. he ex-
poets to notify the club that he will donate
the cup outright and give the Scotch play
ers chance to hold an American trophy.

For tho first time in a couple of weeks

to find the old place winning it's full snare

The event of the afternoon was the Oak

brought to the post a really good field. with
the winner the favorite Phil Finch. He
was we'll up the entire journey and at the
finish had something to spare.

consideration. One Of those who 1oiloweo

FRIENDS AGAIN.
Cordial Relations Restored Between
Virginia and GEORGETOWN.

1t will be pleasing news to all friends of
the universities OF Georgetown and Vir-
glnIa to know that the unfriendliness of
several years standing has at last passed
away II will be recalled that in 1901
Georgetown defeated Virginia at foot ball
10y the remarkable score OF II to rs. when
victory seemed almost a certainty for the
Nirginans. This defeat nettled them, and
while in this state the college papers Of
Virginia said many uncomplimentary things
against the local institution. which forced
Georgetown to sever all relations with the
boys south OF the Potomac. In a recent
issue of the College Topics. the virglnians'
university bulletin. a manly and square
statement was made, repudating the
FORMER editorials, and expressed the hope
that the Georgetown people would accept
ahe statement the present position of the
University OF Virginia.
AT a meeting of the faculty and advisory
committee of Georgetown yesterday a reso-
luton was unanimously passed accepting
the article in the sense II was given, and
ordered a proper reply IN the GEORGETOWN

Graham was directed 70 request Virginia
at once to enter some of its athletes in the
