AMERICANS WTN AGAIN.
Now Entitled to Challenge for Interna-
 tionaI Tennis Cum,

London, July 1S-To the surprise of a large gallery at the Queens club, Hol- combe Ward and Beals c. Wright, the Americans, rather easily defeated Nor man B. Brookes and walter Dunlop, the ApstrsIasieps, tp the fpals of tha doubles for the Dwight F. Davis inter- national lawn tennis cup. This settles the question of the challengers for the cup, play for which commences July 2l at Wimbledon. The matches in the sim gles tomorrow between the Americans and the Australasians will not charge the result.
 In to-day's play the Australasians showed unexpectedly poor form and the set lost by the Americans was due to careless play and not to any brilliancy on the part of their opponents. Brookes plainly showed the effects of yesterdays match with Wright and did not give his partner any material assistance. On the contrary Wright played at top form. Both the Americans avoided giving chances except in the third set, which they practically gave away.
