HAVE DIFFERENT IDEAS.
Americans and Europeans Differ as to
Tennis Handicaps.

NEW YORK, July 2O.-American ideas
and European ideas with regard to giving
handicaps in tennis tournaments are
distinctly different. In fact. European
tournaments differ in almost every detail
from the meets held in the United States.
In the first place. on the other side only
players of the first rank compete in the
i'm oortant championships. Newports S
first few rounds every year are riddled
with ridiculous matches. In which play
ers who have absolutely no chance to
gain national honors compete against
high-ranking players and force the lat
ter to go through the fOrmality of beat
ing them TO, Go 60, or tnereabouts.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. July 3O-.An early decline
in the cotton market today was followed
by a partial recovery, and the close Was
steady. at a net loss of TO 3 points.
the opening was barely steady at
decline of 5 to . points. and prices sold
about 10 to 13 points net lower during
the early trading.
This reflected scattering liquidation for
over the week end and considerable local
pressure. inspired by relatively easy
cables, reports of further showers in the
southwest and a feeling that the market
was entitled to q reaction following yes
terday's new high records and a redac-
ton in the speculative short interest. Blu !.
with the eastern belt forecast calling for
continued showers over Sunday, the
market met a good demand around H.,
for October and prices later rallied
points from the lowest on covering ty
early sellers, and support from some of
the large trade interests. Closing prices
were within point OF two OF the best.
Reports of more active demand fo-
cotton goods and higher yarn prices
probably contributed to the bullishne 8 or
buyers on the early decline. but the ad-
vance was most generally considered due.
to the continued firmness of the old crop
situation in spite of the higher prices and
to the very unfavorable character OF orov
news from east Of the Mississippi river.

team instead of merely British team

tact, willingly surrender the occasional
local honors which they might gain in
order to form one united team, in which
the South Africans. Australians and Ca
