A carriage in which were seated four OBJ
servant men went wh;rling through the
streets in the lexington and North Capitol
section of the city yesterday afternoon. The
occupants of the vehicle were escorted by
Mr. A. O. Tingley, who occupied a seat be-
side the driver.
AS the turnout passed through the nu-
merous streets the men gazed critically at
each lawn and parking space they passed
and made frequent notes of their observa-
tions.
Mr.. Tingley is secretary-trea of the
North Capitol and lexington Citizens AS
sociation, and the men in the carriage
comprised a committee of representatives
of Washingtons four daily newspapers.
The committee had been assembled for the
purpose of carrying out the annual custom
of the citizens organization in awarding
three prizes for the besthept lawns and
parking spaces in Its territory. The baili-
wick of the North Capitol and lexington
Citizens Association. as explained by Mr..
Tingley, covers all that portion of Wash
ington lying between NJ street on the south,

STRIKE NOT SERIOUS.
Iron Trade Does Not Yet Feel the
 Effects of the Tie-Up.

Cleveland O.. July S1.-(Special.) )-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say; The strike of dock laborers at the head of the lakes and of the miners of the Mesa ba and Vermillion ranges continues. and it is extremely difficult to predict wha. the outcome will be. Public sentiment in the ranges is decidedly against the min CTS, who are having trouble in getting credit from grocers and it does not seem possible that the strike can last long.
 At the rate shipments were being made up to July l the total for the year would have been forty-six millions or five mill lions in excess of the amount which will probably be needed to meet furnace re- quirements up to the time of the opening of navigation next year. Hence If the strike does not result in a reduction of the estimated shipment sby more than five million tons, the result will not be serious and indeed the effect will in some respects be favorable A months idleness at the docks and mines would not be dis astroue to the trade. July ended with considerable increase in orders for fin ished material

WEAKER MARKETS
 FOR FOUNDRY IRON Strike at Duluth Has Had no
 Bad Effect PIG IRON IN GOOD DEMAND Some Delay Has Occurred In Putting Through Contracts for Structural Material Owing to Jockey
 ing for Higher Prices.

New York July 3l.-The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 1.ie real test of the situation at the ore mines and the shipping docks will come as soon as the Oliver Iron Mining company starts resumption seriously. This Is expected at a very early date The strike has had little influence upon the markets. 1t being generally under stood that 1t does not affect the early supply.
 The foundry markets are weaker and what little business that has been done was put through at lower prices.
 Iron has sold for forward delivery d shade under $21 at the furnace. Chicago, too, reports lower quotations on local foundry irons. The Steel corporatio has bought 14000 tons of Bessemer pig, prac- tically all of the floating supply in the Pittsburgh district for August delivery. bu. has not purchased any iron in the eastern markets.
 On the whole deliveries of pig iron are very we'll taken. thus indicating that current consumption is still very heavy. It is only rarely that complaint Is heard by smelters that they are getting too much pig iron and fear an embargo.
 There is good deal of delay in putting througl contracts for structural material, many of which have been pending for a considerable time. This is apparently due to joekeying for higher prices. Among the orders just placed 1000 tons for piers for this city. which Is to be followed py t3,000 tons more next month Tor the same purpose.
 The rail trade Is very quiet the only large transaction being reported from Chicago, where new traction system has bought 25.000 tons.
 The Carnegie Steel company has taken the order for the material for another lake boat, involving about 5000 tons. This Is the eleventh boat contracted for since the movement began.
 The wire trade Is very busy and in the merchant pipe trade, there is still rather a question of delivery.

New York. July 31.-A London dis patch to the Herald sayys: Great disappointment has been caused at New Castle-on-Tyne by the an nouncement that Miss May Sutton had decided not to defend the lawn tennis challege cup and gold badge she won last year.
 Miss Suttons decision is somewhat of a mystery. It is probable. however that the California girl, who returns to America next week, preferred to

COTTON STATES LEAGUE

Meridian. Miss, July 3.-(Specal. )-ln the greatest farce that was ever perpe trated in q baseball game In the Cotton States League was pulled off today by Manager McCay and his bunch of ''yellow qutters." It was the most consumma:e exhibition of the baby act ever seen on baseball feld it was not only disgrace to the sport, but an imposition on the large crowd assembled to see what they expected to be a scientific game. Mykie O'Brien was fined and put out of the Smae In the seventh inning for continuous rag-chewing and unnecessary beeiing. Fritz was substituted and McCay went into the box and began the farce. After purposely walking two men. he intention ally made two bslls9. scoring a runner
 The umpire then walked to the grand stand and declared the game forfeited to Meridian with these remarks: Manager McCay of the Mobile baseball club Is making a farce of this game. Therefore the game IS forfeited to Meridian by score of to O." This announcement was received with thunderous applause. Theie was the general hissing for the Mobile bunch.
 The game was interesting up to this point Schultz was on the firing line and backed up by perfect fielding allowed the visitors two scratch hits Not runner reached second base. The locals touched Molly opportnnely and were finding him when hits meant runs. making two earned runs in the third. when the fiasco took place, and it is the opinion of the specta- tors that they would have won by large margin. Umpire Mackey has given satis- faction here and shows that he is ruler of the diamond. Mobile has been severely criticized in the past series and seemed to want to run the game al all stages. When the game was forfeited it stood as fol- lows. R. II. 2. Meridian ... .............0 .00l 100 4-6 0 Mobile . ... .... .O00 600 % 3

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

Bill Hart is sore over an item pritned in the sporting columns of a local paper to the effect that he was 46 years old and the father of twelve children. Bill wrote the sporting editor of the sheet a letter as follows: Dear Ananias-I am 106 years old, have thrty-sx children. eighteen grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Why don't you tell the truth while you are at 1t? I was Al years old last week." said Bill At that, I'm not awful much older than some of the other fellows on this team, only tell the truth about my age and they don't. Bob Woods has been 95 for dozen years. ."-Arkansas Gazette.
 As to the introduction of Cotton States league baseball into this city, the Atlanta press is greatly mistaken when 1t as- sumes that continuous professional base ball would hurt the game from the Southern leagues standpoint. In fact 1t would be the best thing in the world to build up interest in the game that is now dead.
 It is not the intention of this column to decry amateur baseball in the least, but it Is the opinion of the writer that a Cotton States team in New Orleans during the absence of the Pelicans would go a long way toward stihing the semi professional opposition which the South ern league now has. Although there are some good semi professional clubs In this city, they could hardly draw as much as they are now drawing against a team from the Cotton States league.-New Or leans Item.
 New Orleans now considering it's size, Is a most ordinary baseball town. New clubs can improve very little
 The papers in the trades for Paskert and Sid Smith have all been signed, and they will go to Cincinnati and Philade- phla. respectively, at the end of the sea son in the Southern league.
 The club gets S3250 for the services of Paskert. and s20OO for the transfer of Sid Smith.
 These are considered pretty good prices for men taken from a minor league, and shows how valuable Is good baseball ma terial.
 The big leagues are ready to give all most any amount of money for good ball players, and in many instances cannot get what they want, although experts are sent all over the country hunting for promising material-Atlanta Journal.
 Mir C. Frank has tossed large kibosh into all this dope about Lave Cross man aging another Southern league camp next season. It was tipped off that Cross would go to Atlanta. but That" Dutch man in a frothy interview states that he wouldn't trade Lave for the entire At lanta team and the ball park thrown in. Which semes to indicate that Lave will flock with the Pelicans charlottesville Tennesseean.
 As for this rot about Gretna and Mobile taking the places of Shreveport and Little Rock In the Southern, there is nothing to 1t. Cotton States teams have proven recently that they draw pretty well in New Orleans. I have no obiec- tion to the teams playing on the grounds of the Pelicans when the team Is on the road. but there Is no truth in the report that l am to become Cotton States mag nate and run teams In both leagues.- Charlie Frank in Montgomery special to Atlanta Georgian.
