DEL MONTE, Gal, June 1.-The anticipated appearance of G. Kumagai, of Japan. tennis champion of the Or tent, has added a decided international interest to the tWenty-ninth annual Pacific Coast tennis tournament which opens here tomorrow and closes Satur- day, June 25. The young Japanese has been known to American tennis en- thusiasts by reputation for some time. He first won prominence by forcing Ella Fottrell, of San Francisco, to a hard fought five set match in 1913, in the final for the Oriental championship.
 This winter the Japanese sprang into the limelight of international ten his by defeating Clarence Griffin, American national doubles champion, twice decisively in the Orient. He will make his first appearance in the United States on the courts here and natural ly his advent has been awaited with considerable interest William H. Johnston, present national champion, is starting his season at the same time and a possible clash of the champions of Asia and America is looked forward to with eager interest.
 Last year the Pacific coast title was won by Herbert Hahn, of Stanford uni versity the first comparatively un- known player to hold the important western honor for many years. John ston was defeated by Vandyke Johns, of Stanford Then Hahn disposed of his college mate Hahn is returning from an eastern tour where he went to defend his title.
 The east will have decided interest in the tournament because of the pres ence of Miss Clare Cassel of New York. Some objection to her playing in the tournament as an amateur while ap- ,con ring Irnfa ssinna llN as an ice skateI

UNDELIVERED TEuEGRAMS

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-11-06

It became a fight between common,
everyday decent government or turn
ing Chicago over to thieves and
crooks in and out of the police de-
paTtment-and that was too raw for
any trust paper except the TTib. In
conclusion, say again that the
Trib's game in boosting Guinea, the
Socialist candidate, was to make
labor believe Guinea had a chance
and by, driving labor votes from
HOyne to Guinea, split the labor
vote and thus lick labor by electing
Miller. This is my honest judgment,
and I say again the next states at
tOrney will be either Hoyne or Mil
Ter. Let non-SOcialist labor make its
choice.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-11-06

THE STATES ATTORNEY. =
When the Trib came out for Guinea
it gave Guinea a squirt. It filed So
cialists with hope. That was the
intention. There was even talk of
the Lundin-Thompson forces switch
ing from Miller to Guinea to beat
Hoyne. That was bunk. Its purpose
was to stampede nOn-SOcialist labor
from HOyne to Guinea in order to
split the labor vote and elect Miller.
Then began the Miller drive, with
every trick being turned by the COM
bined forces Of the City Hall and all
CrOOkdOm to put Miller over. Then
began the Guinea slump, for those
who were not blinded by prejudice
saw that the real fight was between
Hoyne and Miller. I said at the be-
ginning that Guinea wasn't as
strong this year as he was four years
ago. I say it now, and will give my
reasons. Four years ago all organ
lied labor in Chicago was stirred up
against the trust press. The Daily
World, Socialist, had a circulation of
nearly 100000 and made a gallant
fight for Guinea. The Day Book did
the best it know how for Guinea. So
did organized labor Now there is
no World, and The Day Book is for
Hoyne. So is most of organized labor
that doesn't belong to the Socialist
party. The powerful street railway
union is almost solid for Hoyne. So
are many other labor unions. The
Democratic party isn't split up as it
was four years ago, and all factions
are for Hoyne. Progressive Repub-
Icans, under the leadership of Alder
man Merriam and Leasing Rosen-
thai, are for Hoyne. Although the
Trib has been aIl-poweTful in the
Publishers trust, it's play against
HOyne was so rotten that not a sin
gle Republican paper would follow it
in its fight to SDlit the labor vote and
