Second Game of Worlds Cup
Series to Be Played on
MeadOWbrOOk Green.
BETTING ON THE RESULT
IS NOW AT EVEN MONEY
Despite Defeat on Tuesday, Backers
of English Challengers Are
Still Confident.

NEW YORK, June 14.-AIl conditions
were favorable today for another thrill
, ing battle in the International polo cup
series. The ideal weather for the game
such as the first contest was favored
with Tuesday. has continued all the
week and under fair skies today the
green at Meadowbrook. l.. l., was in
fine shape for fast work
The gossip among the 10000 or more
enthusiasts who began f1ocking to the
course this morning was considerably
more hopeful from an American view
point than when the crowds turned out
Tuesday dubious over the prospect of a
successful defense of the cup from the
English challengers. The assurance given
by the defeat Of the Englshmen. how
ever. by score of Jls goals to 3, turned
betting from the original odds oe 10 to
in favor of the British to an even
thing. and to just the plain sport-loving
majority, regardless of bets, there seemed
certainty of close and exciting struggle,
with the chances slightly in favor of
the home men.
English Not Discouraged.
But the English enthusiasts. naturally
in the minority, were by no means with
out hope and in fact their confidence was
almost restored by a shift in the lineup
designed to add strength to the team.
The change is the substitution of F.. NJ.
Freake for Capt. Noel Edwards at No,
. Edwards played brilliant polo two
years ago, when he scored all the goals
for his team, but his work in TUESDAYS s
contest was not regarded as I'D to his
standard. Freake has not missed an on
portunity to be in the saddle since the
beginning of the practice games. Pitted
against the regular formation of the
challengers, he has displayed a wonder
full control of the ball. At Hurlinpham
he is rated as the best No. 2 in Great
Britain
from that with which Tuesdays game
was finished after l.. E. Stoddard had
substituted for Monty Waterbury when
the latter was injured, except for q shift
of positions
Formation for Today's Match.
The formation for today was:
Americana. E. Stoddard, No. /: l..
Waterbury. No. =: H. P. Whitney, No. 3,
and Devereux Mlburn. No. f.
English-Capt. Cheape, No. /: F.. M.

Capt. Edwards and Lord Wodehouse.
AS possession of the cup is decided by
the best two out of three games, an
American victory today would end the
series.
A British victory. tying the game / to
l. would mean third match, bur no
date for this has yet been arranged.

MANY VETERANS LISTED
FOR GETTYSBURG MEET
Total of $4,000 Wearers of
Blue and Gray to Attend
Reunion.

PHILADELPHIA, June 14.-Forty- five
thousand veterans of the civil war wear
ers of both the blue and the gray, have
asked the Gettysburg anniversary COM
mission to provide accommodations for
them during the celebration of the fiftieth
anniversary of the famous battle next
month. These figures were given out yes
terday at Harrisburg by Samuel 6.
Dixon of the state department of health
as final estimate, which does not in
clude any of the thousands of visitors ex-
pected to journey to the historic battle
field.
Plans for the Sick.
Under the most favorable conditions
there would be many cases of illenss
among these old soldiers during the en-
campment, Dr.. Dixon estimated. But a
much greater number IS feared because
of the heat, the excitement and the strain
of travel incident to the pilgrimage.
Among the provisions for caring for the
sick, arrangements have been made with
hospitals in cities within a radius of
forty miles to receive cases from the
emergency hospital to be installed on the
field Harrisburg, Lancaster, York,
Chambersburg and Hagerstown, Md, will
give aid.
An estimate of the accommodations
which GettysSurs's s 500 inhabitants can
offer to the crowds of visitors indicates
that - Geo at most can be given sleeping
quarters
Provision Made for Food.
Food will. perhaps. be available for
greater number but the pressure of pas
senger train service will probably limit
the amount of food which can be brought
into the town. To provide against smine
among the veterans, the anniversary
commission has arranged that all sup
plies for them be brought in before they
arrive.

RALEIGH, n. c., June 14.-With head
quarters in the center of the tent city
and occupying perhaps the most con-
spicuous spot on Gettysburg battlefield,
the Iron Brigade has invited the 26th
North Carolina Regiment to be it's spe-
cial guest at the coming reunion.
The Goth North Carolina will be di
rectly opposite the 24th Michigan. the
two brigades which fought each other
so fiercely the first day. In writing to
the North Carolinians Col. George Nc
Connell of Chicago, who belonged to the
Michigan men, says: I'VE wish especial
ly to have those survivors of Pettigrew's
brigade our guests of honor and will do
all in our power to entertain them. We
feel the deepest personal regret that our
dear friend, Col. Burfgwyn. could not be
spared to attend this wonderful reunion,
the like of which was never seen and
may never be seen again.

Gently died. He was a noted Marylander.
Among those North Carolina survivors
who will go to Gettysburg are Judge w.
A. Montgomery, former member of the
supreme court. and Cyrus B. Watson,
noted criminal lawyer of North Carolina.

Constantinople, April i.-Turkey has agreed to accept internationally the terms of peace offered by the powers. The ottoman foreign of- flee today announced the acceptance in a note to the diplomats accredit- ed to Constantinople.
 This does not necessarily mean the immediate end of the Balkan war, as the allies and the powers have not yet agreed on peace terms. The powers were asked by Turkey to mediate and the London ambas- sadors proposed a basis of peace.
 The Balkan allies failed to agree and issued a note stating their in- demnity and territorial demands. The powers, through the ambassa- dors, characterized the demands of the allies as exorbitant.

They concluded to camp over night and drive home Saturday. Early Saturday morning they started across the ford, which they considered safe, as other traN- elers had crossed it safely. Cape hart took the lead and succeeded ln getting across all right. but when Ward got about half way across one of the horses suddenly baked and began to back the wagon around. In trying to get the team out the wagon was worked down stream and into deep, swift water
 Ward then jumped out and began trying to cut the horses loose from the wagon. He succeeded in getting one horse loose and Capehart thinks he got on the horse, but two other witnesses state that he simply clung to it's mane. In a few min utes, however, he either fell off the horse or let go of him and started 10 swim. By this time the horses
