Mr. McCawley’s Brilliant and Success- ful Play Yesterday—Other Games. ‘The splendid playing of Mr. McCawley in the all-comers’ tennis tournament yesterday and his victory over two of the crack players from the north settled the important question that at least one of the prizes in the singles would remain in this city, Everybody recognized In the laundry or | the fact that upon the result of the gamo bo- tween McCawley and Billings depended the disposition of the prizes. When theso two gentlemen made their appearance the spocta- tors, who wore not as numerous as the impor- tance of tho occasion warranted, grouped about the court. I'he play was followed with tho greatest interest and the good points made wore warmly applauded, McCawley played from the beginning a winning game and in spite of the best endeavors of his oppouent he scored point after point. Mr. Billings showed that his reputation was not an over rated one. He played a strong, vigorous game. But Mr. MeCawley — outplayed him, that — was all, Tho feature of Mr. Billings’ game is his placing, and with a Jess active and skiliful opponent than Mr. McCawley it would no doit have given him a great many points, Mr. MeCawley's success in returning these bails appeared to have a discouraging effect and Mr. Hiilings seemed to lose his accuracy, and a large portion of these strokes either landed the bailin the net or ontside of the lines, ‘There were several pretty volleys, and the playing throughout was marked by a number of brilliant strokes. Mr. Billings succeeded in wiuning only two games in the first set and three im the second. At the close of the game Mir. McCawley was heartily congratulated by those who were ambitious to see one at least of the principal prizes remain in this city. Before, however, it could be quite certain that Mr. MeCawley would play in the finals he had to meet Mr. E. A. Thompsen of New York, who ranks as a player with Mr, Billings. After a short rest Mr. McCawley began his game on. ‘The latter played a good showed that he had more than the average skill. Two scts were played, Mr. Thompson winning three games in each set. Owiug to the approach of darkness no more games were played in tho singles. Today Mr, McCawley will play Mr. W. G. Peter and Mr. A. E. Wright of New York will piay Mr, Metcalf, It is expected that Mr. MeCawley and Mr. Wright will play in the finals, the winner taking tue first prize and his opponent the second prize. Mr. Wright is undoubtedly the leading player of those who have come here to take part in the tournament. His play in the singles with Mr. Woodward yesterday and in the double game showed that his reputation has not been exaggerated. He is a short, stocky man, and is so near-sighted that he is ob! spectacles, He is said to rank twelfth he tennis players of the country. Play was begun in the doubles yesterday by Messrs. Wright and Billings mecting Messrs. Borden and Byrnes, The former played ad- | murably together, but in spite of their strong | game their opponents made it extremely lively for them, and the game was well contested throughout. Messrs. Wright and Billings won, and it is likely that they will be the winuers of the first prize in the doublos. The scores of yesterday's games aro_as fol- lows: Singles—McCawley beat Billings, 6-2; 6-3. Wright beat Beach, 6-4; 6-3. McCawley beat Thompson, 6-3; 6-8. Wright beat Woodward, 6-0; 6-4, Metcalf beat Parks, 6-8; 6-2; 9-6. Doubles—Wright and Billings beat Borden and Byrnes, 6-3; 6-2. MeCawiey and Woodward beat Hall and Hall by default. “Peter and Peter beat Agneau and Walker, 6-3; 4-6; 6-0. Consolation prize—Painter beat Agneau, 6-2; 6-4. Davidson beat B, Peter, 6-1; 6- beat Chambers, 2-6; 8-6; 6-2. Borden ‘on, 6-2; 6-2. Second round—Borden beat Wooten, 6-1; 6-2 FAITH CURE MISSIONARIES, Victims of the Deadly Tropical Fever A Curlous Story From Africa. The British minister has transmitted to the Department of State a letter from the governor of Sierra Leone, inclosing a report from the colonial surgeon at Freetown, Dr, D, Palmer Ross, relative to the case of the nine American missionaries at that place, Dr. Ross reports that the superintendent of the party. Mr, Kingman, arrived there Febru- ary 27, 1890, and was followed June 13 by Mrs. Kingman, Miss Dick and Messrs. Helmick, Ja- derquist, Coddings, Trice (a negro), Gates and Harries, It isstated that upon their arrival they began to live in native fashion, eating native food, cooking and washing for them- selves and even collecting their own fuel in tho rainy season, hoping thus to gain the confi- dence of the natives. On July 9 Mr. Kingman informed Dr. Ross that two of his party had died that day. Upon inquiry Dr. Ross learned that no doctor had been called in to attend the deceased (Messrs, Gates and Harries), the whole party being staunch believers in “faith healing;” that they had TAKEN NO MEDICINE AND HAD DIED OF FEVER. Dr. Roses, knowing that tropical fever, if neglected, is apt to assume a virulent form among newly arrived white people, ordered the bodies to be buried as soon as possible and sent the sanitary policeman to see the order carried out to disinfect the house and destroy all bedding, clothing, &c., used by the deceased; that officer reported that others were sick in the house, # fact which the missionaries had not stated, and on the next day Mr. Kingman sent for the doctor to see his wife. She was found to be in the last stage of exhaustion from negiected fever, having been ill for nine days, and in spite of all that could be done she died on the evening of the 11th. CURED IN SPITE OF MIMSELF. On the previous day Mr. Kingman was found to be ill, but refused to accept medical assist- ance, That ovening Mr. Trice, who was also ill, sent for the doctor and consented to be taken to the hospital for treatment, under which he has recovered. On the Uth M Kingmauy, though worse. haying again refused to receive the doctor, that gentieman informed him that as the sionaries had, by th ue- tion, originated a. malignant type of fever in would report the matter to the governor, iso- late the house and advise that the rest of the party be sent back to America, Mr. Kingman then consented to be treated ‘solely on the ground that he did not wish to endanger the valescent. THE CLIMATE NOT SUITED To FAITH CURE. Dr. Ross adds that he understands that these missionaries intend going due east into the in- terior, guided only by a compass, In view of these facts and of tho statement in the ‘Mis- sionary Review” that another party of mission- aries “are expected, the governor of Sierra Leone culls attention to the matter, this climate is not suited to those who trust alone to faith healing and ignore the means placed by Providence at their disposal for the relief of suffermg humanity,” and as such conduct is a “danger to the community at large.” —s— FAILED TO SHOW A LIGHT And the Owner of the Building Was Fined, but Sentence Was Suspended. This morning in the Police Court Patrick Bresnahan, a bricklayer, and Mr, George Zur- horst, the undertaker on Capitol Hill, were charged with violating the building regulations, it being alleged that they failed to exhibit a light on building material. Mr. Zurhorst was charged as owner of the building and Mr. Bres- nahan as contractor. Policeman Colton was the prosecuting witness and Mr. Zurhorst took occasion to denounce the action of the ofticer as a “persecution.” Judgo Miller, however, commended the action of the officer and said that citizens should understand that an action of this kind is more for their benefit than to their injury. The judge said that if some one had driven it the unlighted building ma- terial and obtained a judgment against the Dis- trict and the judgment had been entered against the property the owner would be the first one to ask, “Where were the police?” ‘Tho charge against Bresnahan was dismissod and Mr. Zurborst was fined $20.

The armor protection of the 8-inch guns is to be increased from 6 inches to 10 inches in thickness. The protection to the 6-inch rapid- fire guns is to be increased from 4 inches to 5, and the maximum thickness of the side armor, 15 inches, is to be carried down 12 inches be- low the water line instead of 6 before it begins to gradually taper off to 10 inches in thickness, The addition of the four 8-inch guns will make these vessels the most powerfully armored of their class afloat, and the addi- tions to their armor will make them much less yuinerable. The 8-inch guns, which were bo- fore protected against light rapid-fire projec- tiles, will now be safe against anything but Leavy gurs at close range, while the 6-inch guns will be protected against moderately heavy rapid-fire projectiles, and the addi- tional thickness of the side armor just below water line will greatly add to the protection of that most important part of the vessel, A readjustment of the contract price of theso vessels has been made necessary by the increase in their length, and cousequentiy ramp & Sons will receive $3,063,333 for each the vessela they are to build, instead of $5,020,000, and the Union iron works will re- ceive for the other one €3,223,333 instead of $3,180,000, AT MR.

On that date Secretary Blaine will speak there in the interest of Major McKinley aud tho yre- publicans will have a large and enthusiastic time.

Charles J. Murphy of New York has been appointed special agent of the Depart- ment of Agriculture in Europe for special duty in regard to the use among Europeans of corn and corn products, and to present to Europeans the _ availability of cereals for human food products, Secretary Rusk believes that a proper under- standing of the edible value of corn in its many attractive forms would greatiy increase its use among the people of Europe for this pur- . whercas at present its use is confined to ing purposes, with the result that but avery small per cent of the crop is ex- ported.
