NEWPORT OFFERS
TENNIS TROPHY

NEW YORK, July 22.-Newoprt has
again come forward with the presen-
tation of a special trophy to be COM
peted for by the lawn tennis players
when they meet in the thirty-second
annual national championship tourna-
ment on the courts of the Casino be
ginning August 10.
Robert d. Wrenn, president of the
United States National Lawn Tennis
Association, has just officially notified
all of the clubs in the organization
and the members of the executive
committee with the idea of securing
opinions as to the best form that the
competition should take.
According to a statementemade yes
terday, it is planned to offer the cup
for a distinctly special contest As IT
is practically certain at this time that
William A. Larned. the seven times
holder of the national championship,
will not play through. as h new
rules require that the competition will
be arranged so as TO bring him out
in a special event
So far three suggestions have been
-made-a double match or matches be-
tween pairs of national prominence,
a mixed doubles tournament, which
would be new to Newport. and in
which the leading women and men of
the country would be paired. and a
golf event.

MORE CLUBS WILL JOIN
NEW SOCCER LEAGUE

PHILADELPHIA. July %. The
committee of the Pennsylvania Foot
ball Association, which was appointed
for the purpose of forming plans for
the organization of a second division
to the Pennsylvania League. has de-
cided to abandon the idea now that
the American League has come into
the field. 1t was the intention of th8
professional organization to have a
second division next season to allow
some Of their clubs to join which we're
unable to get into the Pennsylvania
League, on account of it being limited
next year to six teams, but as they
were unable to secure the required
number, the project has been dropped
for the present.
The American League, which or
ganized last Friday night. is assured
success. as some of the clubs which
were unable to send a representative
to the meeting have been heard from
and are heartily in favor of tn move
ment, which will be the ean OF
fostering the game around this sec
ton of the country. The organizers
of the league are confident that il
will be one of the leading amateur
soccer associations in this vicinity,
and they intend to admit none but
the leading amateur clubs.

gals Battle as of oId-SchIaIy, Not Worrying About His

All the Tigers will watch the Provi-
dence game today to see how Del
Drake makes Out on his first trip to
the plate. Del has set what is proba-
bly, a league record for consecutive
records by collecting nine safe blows
in a row. He had five safeties on
Friday and on Saturday against
Newark he came through with foul
passes and a base on balls. The only
known major league record on hand
for consecutive w%allopine is held by
Honus Wagner, who Clipped off four
teen in a row some time back. Two
years ago Eddie Zimmerman, Their
leading of for the Tigers, set the
the first time up, but his hits did
not come without subsequent breaks
in the same games.
If Kirkpatrick and Swacina con-
tinue their heavy bingling on this
trip Newark has an excellent chance
of cleaning up a majority of the
games. kirkpatrick seems to improve
every day and he Is without a doubt
scheduled for Brooklyn next sum-

The Friol-Cavanagh match that

run next Sunday. The Bedell- Wiley
paced race was on the card for last
Wednesday, but it will be run under
different conditions than originally
proposed. The first heat of this race
will be started in the usual manner
with both riders getting off together

be a pursuit from opposite sides of
the track The third heat, If a third
heat Is necessary, will be decided by
the toss of a coin. This arrange
ment will make the contest absolutely
decisive and came about as the result
of he great rivalry existing between
these riders. Wiley and Bedell re-
quested that the race be run in that
manner.

Major League Leaders Are
Firmly FIXED in Places

Though compelled to meet some of
their hardest adversaries the past
seven days, teams not wholly without
good championship prospects, the
leaders in both the major baseball
leagues are as firmly fixed as they
were a week ago, and the race still
continues to be a two-ciub affair.
When 1t is considered that Boston
has a lead of seventy-nine points
over its nearest competitor and 1875
over the present champions, it does
not require great powers of divina-
ton to determine where, barring ac-
cidents. this years pennant in the
American League is likely to go. 1t
Is even nor easy in the National,
as New York has 1873 points advan-
tage on Chicago, thee only club at
the present time with any chance of
figuring as a pennant contender.
At this stage of the race and with
the leaders going at their present
gait, this lead Is going to be diff
cult if not impossible to wipe out,
and from the way the other clubs
are going is likely to prove ' all
sufficient to carry the leaders safely
through the remainder of the cham
pionship season. In one respect each
of the leaders Is lucky, inasmuch as
they have almost completed the
series with possibly their stiffest
propositions.
Giants Lead at Phillies' Expense.
The Giants built up their large
lead at the expense of the Phillies
at a time when Dooin's men were in
their worst shape, and we're thus
able to win eleven of the twelve
games played, and now when the
Phillies are able to give the New
Workers something like a real battle.
the remaining games between the
two are so late in the season as to
make little difference to the Giants
whether they win or lose. as by that
time they are likely to have a safe
lead.
Ten games are yet to be played be-
tween the two clubs, but as they are
scheduled for early September and
October, it is altogether probable
that the result will not affect the
standing of the Giants. Boston in
the American league has yet only

however, wishes to nave longer time

same conditions. Manager Danny

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, July 22.-Fol-
lowing a night on the road, the
Tigers struck camp here today and
put an i~ntrenchment in front of Fort
Camel, which the Tigers hope to sub
5ugate during the next four days.
Cancels men lost six out of seven
games last week, while the Tigers
took four out of five contests. The
roubl with the Camel machine just
now seems to be a webbing pitching
staff. The Tigers have no George
Mcconnell or Pat Ragon to face in
this series, as in the days of yore,
when Newark always had 1t on Roch-
ester.
Tom Hughes alone seems to have
been effective against Newark this
season, but it is not Hughes's turn
to pitch today. Ducky Holmes and
Thomas. are on the ready list for
lawns beck to the box.
Cy Seymour is back with the Tigers
again and ready to resume his old
position in the outfield, which will
help materially on the tempestuous
voyage the Tigers must make around
the upper end of the circuit. Cy
hoped on the Bengal special at New
ark last night and looks, as clipper
as he has since he got into shape
this spring. 1t is likely that Cy will
be used in right field in the future
until his leg is thoroughly mended
from the bothersome strain which
nothing but q rest could cure.
The Jersey City club was ahead of
the Tigers for a little while last night.

Tigers special car.
Larry and his men did not seem a
bit worried about where the Jersey
City franchise would wind up al the
end of the season OF course, Larry
is not supposed to look after the
business end of the club. but he de-
clares he'll keep right on forcing his
men in the fight to finish, one, two,
three in the first division.

BERLIN, July 22.-Thirtcen MEM
bers of the American Olympic team
and the Greek champion Tsiclitiras
yesterday met the best of the German
athletes in a series of games ar
ranged by the Berlin Sport Club as a
sequel to the Stockholm contests.
The greatest interest centered in the
100 and 800-meter events, owing to
the assertions of the German cham
pions that they had been victims of
unfair tactics at Stockholm.
The delight of the spectators was
unbounded when the German sprin-
ter, Rau, whose defeat in the semi
finals of the 100-meters at Stockholm
were ascribed by him to the repeated
false starts of Ralph C. Craig, of the

six games to play with the Athletics,
three late in August and three to
close the season in October, so thai
there is small chance for the cham
pions to hold the Red Sox back; but
Washington may be able to do some
thing, as they have seven games
with the leaders, and. judging by
past performances. the Nationals
should get more than an even break.
ALI of these series may have an i'm
portant bearing on the disposition
OF the two flags unless the leaders
continue to maintain their present
advantage.
1t must be patent to every follower
of the national game by this time
that Washington's present position In
the race is more than the result of a
phenomenal squirt, but rather good.
consistent playing. There was hardly
a critic who predicted that Griffith S
men would long remain an occupant
of the first division after the season
opened, a prediction warranted by the
strength of the team, which was lit
tie changed from a year ago,
Yet Griffith, by adding a player
here and there. has succeeded in
whipping together a combination that
has been a factor since the first
game, and from the way it is going
at present promises to remain one to
the end. Collectively Washington is
a weak-hitting aggregation, and at
least four clubs outrank 1t in fielding.
yet, blessed with a d%istinctively good
staff of pitchers-not particularly
brilliant aside from Walter Johnson,
but of good average ability-the team
has been able to keep in the front
of the faht and to continue to harass
the leaders and keep them on edge
to hold their advantage.
The White Sox are in many ways
like Washington, although in both
batting and fielding are a trifie better
than the Nationals. Both teams
promise to make the race interesting
right down t o the finish, but it is
doubtful if any other one thing will
stand out in the present champion
ship season like the playing of Wash
ington. and it unfolds great possibili-
ties of what a manager a do with

THORPE HAD NO TIME
FOR SWEDEN'S MONARCH

NEW YORK, July 22-An amusing
incident of the Olympic games is be-
ing told at the athletic clubs here.
It is said that shortly before the
Finland was to leave Stockholm an
equerry in uniform came aboard
and demanded an interview with
Thorpe. whose record at the stadium
gave him the honor of icing consid-
cred the best all-around athlete of
the games.
THE King has heard of your sue
eess.'' said the equerry, and would
like to see you at the palace in or
der to congratulate you"
sUghi I don't know much about
Kings replied the big Indian as he
grinned bashfully. Offer him my
regards and tell him I can't get
away"
The equerry went over the side in
a kind OF stupor 1t Is said to be the
first time on record that the Kings
invitation has been refused.
