 days Session.

Washington, Oct 3.-The interna- tional congress on tuberculosis met aagin in general session to-day at the National museum, the seven sec tions of. the distinguished gathering having been brought to close last night the long programme mapped out for minute study of every phase of the tuberculosis problem.
 Although there were no set speech es scheduled the proceedings this forenoon were principally consumed with brief addresses. There were many things of purely business na- ,ture such as reports from the sec retaries of the different sections. Resolutions relating to scientific questions discussed by the various sections were referred to a general committe on resolutions.
 The report of this committee will be made in the closing hours of the session this evening and 1t is con f1dently expected to provoke heated discussion. The storm center of which probably will relate to Dr Robert Koch's radical position dying the unity of the human and bovine tuberculli Any attempt on the part of those who antagonize him in his view to place the congress on record will develop stubborn opposi- tion.
 The delegates evinced keen inter- est in a report presented to the congress by Dr T. J. Stafford, con- cerning tuberculosis in Ireland. Dr Stafford said that because of the fl, nancial condition of the country at this time, it was impossible to deal with all cases of tuberculosis, by the institutional method of treatment. The exhibition of the congress will remain open until October 12 About $10,000 in cash prizes and many medals are to be given to com. petitors with the best exhibits.

Weather Just Right.

Garden City, L. l., Oct 3.-Bright and crisp weather favored the Boston and New York players for the con- cluding matches to-day in the inter- city golf series. The dashing style exhibited by the Boston team yester- day when it scored it's narrow victory over the Philadelphia players by a score of to 2, led the experts this morning to expect excellent golf with playing conditions such as early this morning they promised to be. The matches to-day will decide whether or not the trophy presented by R. w. Lesley of Philadelphia for supremacy in these contests will remain still an- other eyar in New York.

Coronets.

The coronet of duke consists of al- ternate crosses and leaves, the leaves being representation of the leaves of the parsley plant. The princes of the blood royal also wear similar crown. The state headgear of marquis con- sists of diadem surrounded by flow CTS and pearls placed alternately. An earl, however, has neither flowers nor leaves surmounting his circlet, but only points rising, each with pearl on the top. A viscount has neither flowers nor points, but only the plain circlet adorned with pearls. which, regardless of number, are placed on the crown it. self. A baron has only six pearls on the golden border, not raised, to dis tinguish him from an earl, and the number of pearls render his diadem distinct from that of viscount

NEW YORKS APPEAL
VIII Not Abide By PnlIIam Dc. cision-Three Leaders Are
 Playing To-Day.

New York, Oct 3.-Greater uncer- tainty than ever In the ultimate out come of the almost unprecedently close race for the National league pennant has come as result of yes days overturn in the relative stand ing of the three leading teams. Through double header victory Pittsburg squeezed into first place with lead of less than a full point over New York and Chicago in third place is only single point lower down in the percentage table. Even though in second place New York still has slight advantage as. she still has four games to play before the close of the season, while Pitts burg and Chicago have only two each.
 Should New York win all four games the 5pennant would fly at the Polo grounds another year, even if the other two teams play faultless ball in all their remaining scheduled games.
 Pittsburg to-day will again try her strength with St Louis from whom she took the double header victory yesterday, while New York plays at Philadelphia and Chicago at Cincin- nati. Boston and Brooklyn in the second division will play at Brooklyn.
 Detroit still holds the top place in the American league, four points lead over Cleveland. Chicago by its de- feat of yesterday is thirteen points behind Cleveland. The leading team will be on its home diamond to-day where 1t will meet St Louis, while Chicago will play at Cleveland. Wash ington plays at New York and Bos- ton at Philadelphia.
