that he was almost unable to walk.
Unless Clothier improves greatly. many
think that the match had better be de-
faulted rather than made a farce of.
With the removal Of the players of the
upper ranks from the tournament, the
younger wielders of the racquet loom into
prominence.
The general feeling is that a new and
younger champion should assume the
mantle Of Clothier.
The victory of Richard H. Palmer over

Pittsburg, Aug. 21.-The leased wire
telegraphers at Pittsburg decided not to

that the strike was already lost. Later,
