WILLIAM OF WED MAY
ABANDON HIS THRONE

Vienna, June luxurious fighting at
DurazzO was reported in dispatches re-
reived here today from foreign war
ships in the harbOr there.
AT the time the messages were sent
1T was said the rebels against William
of Wied, Albania's new king, were with
in half mile of the place and strug-
Cling hand to hand with the city's de-
Tenders on the ramparts which protect
it on the landward side.
William, it was stated, was directing
the defense in person. his forces were
said to be lined up across the narrow
isthmus connecting the peninsula on
which DurazzO stands with the Alban-
ian inland. The rebel attack began at
dawn.
The king was reported to have com
pleted all preparations for getting on
board one of the foreign warships and
abandoning his kingdom if necessary.
The feeling here is that it will be
just as well for the new king to leave
s." lie IS considered to have rai.pt ia
his work. The manner of his threat
ened overthrow caused much anxiety,
however, since it was doubted if the
blueiackets and marines landed from
the foreign warships are numerous
enough to prevent pillage and murder or
perhaps even to protect the legations.

SUB-GRADE FINISHED.

The sub-grade of the new asphalt
courts of the Salem Tennis club were
finished today and will be rolled with
the city roller in the near future and
made ready for the application Of the
crushed rock base. Prescott Simonton,
driver of the Ambrose-Birdscll auto
truck has volunteered his services as
driver and the transfer company has
offered their truck free of charge for
the hauling of the crushed rock which
will be secured from the Salem Sand
4 Gravel company at cost. A crushc /
rock base / inches thick will be laid
and rolled by the city roller ready for
the asphalt top coat which will be put
ON next week.
Paul Wallace who has charge of the
construction of the courts expects to
have them finished in two weeks. He
reports that as most of the labor neces-
sary for the construction of these court )
is volunteer work that it must be done
at the convenience of the donors and
the work cannot be rushed on this ac.
count. The work is going ahead
steadily, however, and Salem tennis
enthusiasts will soon be equipped with
first class waterproof tennis courts.

MURRAY RETURNS TO FRISCO.

San Francisco, June 16.-Looking
even better than when he left here for
his first eastern invasion, Billy Murray
of Sacramento returned today from
New York to begin work for his sched-
uled 20.round bout with George Chip
of New Castle, Pa, at DAILY City, July
4. Murray will establish training quar-
ters in San Rafael in few days.
Chip is expected here tomorrow from
Los Angeles.
Speaking of Murray's bouts with AL
Mccoy, who holds knockout over
Chip, Murray's manager, Jack Kearns,
said:
"Murray's last fight with Mccoy
was unsatisfactory because Mccoy
wouldn't fight. He ran and clinchcd
continually, but he left the ring with
broken nose. In their first bout,
Murray gave Mccoy a worse beating
than Mike Gibbons or any other good
man Mccoy has met gave him. Both
fights drew big crowds.
Murray is in good shape now,
weighing about 100 pounds, and will
not have to do much hard work. We
had nice trip and made some money. 3"
Kearns said Murray would take on
Gibbons next after Chip.

WILL NOT HOLD A
STATE TOURNEMENT

At the meeting of the tennis enthusi-
asts of this city at the Y. NJ. C. A. last
night it was decided not to entertain
the proposition of holding the state
tennis tournament during the state fair
this fall on account of the absence of
suitable dressing quarters and the large
amount of money necessary to erect
clubhouse. The concensus of opinion
was that it would be more profitable
to try out the local tennis material and
size up the situation in this city before
branching out into foreign fields.
The Salem tennis club is young or
ganization and the new asphalt courts
will not be completed for at least two
weeks yet, so the ability of the Salem
players is still an unknown quantity.
A local tournament will be staged in
the near future and an effort made to
keep up interest locally to build up a
strong club in this city before taking
on any of the northwest players.
