 piOnship of New England

Hartford, June 15.-By defeating Le- Roy of Columbia to-day in the finals of the singles of the New England ter- his championship tournament, which is being played on the course of the Har- ford Golf club this week, Theodore Roosevelt Pell of New York will meet Karl H. Behr of Yale tomorrow after noon at 2:S0 for the championship ti- tie and cup. It was splendid match, and went five sets, LeRoy taking the first two, and Pell the other three. Pell simply tired his opponent out at the outset by cross court volleying, and then went in and won the match with comparative ease. Pelps brilliant work throughout the week, if carried into to- morrow's contest, will mean that Behr will have his hands full to retain his title.
 In the finals of the doubles, Grant of New York and Pell defeated LeRoy and Behr three straight sets. The features of this match was the superb service work of Grant and the overhead driv- ing of Behi.

 cal Research Dissolved.

Boston, June 15.-It became known tonight that the American branch of the Society of Psychical Research, an organization with a membership of 5000 in this country, has been dissolved. The society's headquarters in this city will be kept open until the first of next year. A new society has been formed in New York and will carry on the work of the defunct society,
 For some time the American branch of the Society of Psyehical Research has been on the verge of dissolution. Since the recent death of Professor Richard Hodgson of Boston. the presi- dent of the society Professor William James of Harvard university has been doing his utmost to keep the organiza- tion In existence.
 Two reasons are advanced for the dis solution of the society; first, the inter- est taken by Professor Hodgson in so- called Piper Phenomena and seeoad the unwillingness of the secretary, James H. Hyslop of New York to con- tinue longer in the office unless the sum of $25,000 to further the work of the organization was forthcoming Re- garding Professor Hodgson 1t Is claim ed by members of the society, that the organization suffered by the late presi- dents interest in studying the frances of Mrs. Leonora Piper, the trance medi- un1,

All contracts concerning such transactions, it was claimed. are specifically declared to be void by the statutes of Illinois, where the transac- tions were had and the note given and was payable.

BRITISH YIN AT TENNIS.
and Smith Defeat Little md
 Ward.

London, June 15.-The challenge round in the international competition for the Davis tennis championship cup was entered on at Wimbledon to-day, when the Britishers, s. H. Smith and H. L. Doherty, respectively, beat R. D. Little and Holcombe Ward In singles matches. Little started nervously in the first match and never seemed to get up to his proper game, although show ing to advantage in some good rallies in the first set. Smiths serving was splendidly judged and he played con- sistently well throughout, his steadiness itself seeming to worry Little. The sec- ond was a fairly hard set, and Little, after the score was called 3 to 1 against him, made plucky effort, winning three successive games by fine service and some excellent back-hand returns. Smith won the next game and the set, The American experienced considerable difficulty in judging the strength of the British players drives, and his playing was very cratic.
 Ward made better showing against Doherty in the second match, which at one time was intensely exciting. Doher- ty won the first two games and then Ward drew level. Doherty, however, then went away, winning the set, six games to two. The second set was much more interesting, each player al- ternately winning until games all was called. Ward played better than in any previous match since his arrival in Eng land, but ultimately was beaten at S-6. Doherty, mainly by well-judged ser- vice, won the last set and the match. The scores:
 s. H. Smith, England, defeated R. D. Little, American, GA, GA, 6-1.
 H. L. Doherty, England, defeated Holcombe Ward, American, 6-2, s-6, 6-&

HOUSE VOTES FOR LOCK
 CANAL ACROSS PANAMA
ONE HUNDRED AND TEN MEM~ BERS FOR TT TO THRIFT
 SIX AGAINST.

MT. Burton, of Ohio, With Charts and
 Pointer Acts as Instructor for House
 Which Resembles Great Class Room
 --Declares Delay in Deciding Upon
 the Type Unfair to the President and
 Executive OficeHss
 Washington, June 15.-In committee of the whole to-day the house by vote of 110 to 36 voted in favor of a lock canal across the isthmus of Pan- anna, the amendment to that efrect being presented by Representative Idt- tauer of New York.
 With members of congress sitting on the short steps in the aisles of the house around the space in front oa the speakers desk with large mem bership of the lower branch of con- gress, with the galleries filled, and with MT. Burton of Ohio, pointer in hand. indicating by charts the difference be- tween sea level and lock canal. tho house presented every appearance of the class room of great university.
 MT. Burton yesterday gave notice that when the item in the sundry civil bill was reached appropriating upwards bf $25, 100000 he would ask for an hour In which to present his views on the lock level type of Panama canal.
 He preface6 his remarks by stating that in the so-called Spooner bill, au- thorizing the expenditure of $1S5,0O0,0O0 for the Panama canal and giving the president the right to inaugurate thls movement and carry it to a successfully conclusion, the type was left with the president with certain specifications and limitations.
 He said that lately there had been A strong agitation for a sea level canal and he believed that the time had come when the question of type should be settled and the matter renibved from the domain of controversy
 "It is not fair to the president and to the executive officers of the govern- ment who have this great enterprise in charge to say to them with one breatk Proceed with the canal, with all the speed you may and with another breath to say that i've have not yet made up our minds what kind of a canal you shall build.' It is unjust to the subordinates who have gone to the isthmus to give the best years of their lives and their best efforts to hamper and embagrass them by falling to de- eide this question"
 In reply to a question by Mir Wil- Hams of Mississippi MT. Burton said that the necessary implication of tho spooner act was that lock canal was intended, "Why?"
 'In the consideration of this subject we may follow the analogy of the river and harbor appropriations except that the direction of congress there is to the secretary of war. He is authorized to contract for certain works provided the same shall not exceed certain amount"
 Taking his position in front of the maps he called attention to the vital difference between the two types, and

 Prince LuitpOld.

Vienna, June 15.-In well informed quarters here 1t is considered probable that King Otto of Bavaria will be de posed in the near future. During Prince Regent Luitpold's recent visit to Vien- na he participated in discussion in court circles as to the advisability of ending the ahsurdity of Bavaria being ruled in the name of an insane sover- elgn and of the Viennese court commu- nicating this view to the Bavarian gov- ernment
 King Otto, who was insane when he ascended the throne twenty years ago, has grown worse each year and is now living like wild animal. He permits nobody to approach him. His only nourishment is bread crumbs and dried fruit. He is in frightful condition from neglect, which his physicians and custodians are unable to remedy be- cause. according to the monarchical tradition they are not permitted to use force.

 New York, June 15.-Under a decision of the appellate lewiston of the supreme court here to-day a judgment against John H. Starin for $10,000, obtained for injuries inflicted by bear upon Walter Malloy, a nine-year-o boy. at New Haven, Conn.,, is reversed. The judg ment of the lower court is reversed be- cause of the nature of the judges charge to the jury. He was asked to charge certain matters regarding con- tributory negligence, and the appellate division holds that he erred in not doing so.
 The request was that when an intelli- gent boy goes on an enclosed pier, the property of the defendant, where freight is being unloaded, and gets within eighteen inches of the grated front of cage of bears and is seized by one of the animals, he cannot recover for in- 1uries, but is guilty of contributory neg ligence.
