The game at Cincinnati Saturday between the Washington and Cincinnati clubs re- sulted in another defeat for cur represen- tatives, the score being 4 to 2 in favor of the Ewingites.

While only two or three of the National League clubs are big financial winners on the season, the fans can find in the pres- ent race for the pennant a source of much satisfaction. Judging from the position of the clubs in the race today and the percent- ages of the leaders in the past few seasons on September 1, the battle for the flag is be- coming closer every year. At this time last season it was practically settled that only two clubs had a chance for the champion- ship. This year there are three,and Cleve- land would be considered a good chance if the Indians were playing at home. This in- crease in the number of prospective pen- nant winners, the cutting down of the per- centages of tife top-notchers and the im- provement of certain other clubs should in- crease interest in the sport and make the many mistakes of the year '98 be forgotten. That the league race is rapidly becoming less and less a runaway affair is shown by the following standing of the clubs of the leaders on September 1 since 1892: 1892—Cleveland, .744; Boston, .564; Brook- 5° agate Result of Shafter's Dash. “He said that when he arrived in Cuba and realized the cohditidns that confronted him and his men, ‘te khew that the cam- paign must of necessijy be one of days rather than of weeks and months. He had lost nearly al! of hi fters and was thus seriously handicapid it effecting a land- ing of both his treeps and the stores and supplies which the dieetcarried. The tre- mendous rains which set in immediately after his arrival réndefed it next to im- possible for either tbe trpops or supplies to be gotten forward. ,He felt, however, that, whatever were thé difficuities, he | must press forward and if possible end the cam- paign in the briefest time. The climatic conditions were such that to lose any time meant the destruction of his command by illness and the tontequent failure of the expedition. He took no chances on delay, therefore, but swept his gallant army upon the Spaniards with such irresistible dash that victory was won almost before the Spaniards themselves realized what they had to encounter. “It is perfectly evident now that, had Gen.

Of course, they did not have what they are now receiving at Montauk Point, but they had the actual necessaries of life, notwithstanding the newspaper reports to the contrary. Doubtless, there were indi- vidual cases of suffering because of the scarcity of supplies at the front, but, as a rule, the men had all that the soldiers of the Union army had at times during the civil war. While the federal forces were lying in the trenches before Petersburg they suffered at times, during those seven months, for good food, but like the heroes before Santiago they endured without com= plaining. “It is particularly notable that the men who were actually engaged in the Santiago campaign are not complaining of their treatment. I talked with scores of them--I was about to say hundreds—and not a breath of complaint did I hear from any of them. They suffered, they are suffering yet, but they endured and are enduring their trials like Spartans. There may be individual cases of complaints; it would in- deed be strange if there were not; but as a body the army of Gen. Shafter is not only satisfied with the situation, but im- measurably proud of its marvelous achieve- ment. The President's Inspection. “The Prestdent was particularly solici- tous about the condition of the men who were ill. He went to Camp Wikoff to as- certain for himself whether the men in the ranks needed anything that they were York, 635. Cincinnati, the present leader, now has @ smaller percentage of games won and lost than any team which has led the race since 1892, and smaller than the first and second teams at this time in "D4 and ‘97. The fights for the other positions are also much closer. WOMEN’S TE: NIS TOURNEY. Miss Neely to Play Mins Juliette At- kinson Today. Miss Juliette Atkinson and Miss Jennie Craven, western champions in women’s doubles for 1897, Saturday won the right to the same title for 1898 by defeating Miss Louise Pound and Miss Marie Wimer in the hardest match of the western cham- Pionship tournament thus far. It was a game fight from start to finish, five scts be- ing required to determine the stronger team. Miss Pound and Miss Wimer played poor- ly at first. The first set went to the cham- pions, 6-3.- In the second set Miss Pound and Miss Wimer started in with a rush that landed them the set, 6-2. The third set Was an exact duplicate of the second as far as the final score went. In the fourth set the champions recovered from their rout and won. With two sets each the teams started in to play good tennis. The single tournament was carried down to the finals, as the result of the match between Miss Maude Banke, who met de- feat by Miss Carrie Neely, who had things all her own way. As the result of the sin- not getting. His orders were that they should want for nothing, but he desired personally to know whether these orders were being carried out. After several hours of patient investigation and careful examination he left the camp, satisfied that the men were being well cared for as they could be in a field hospital. Te took no official's word for anything. He had gone to the camp to see for himself, and his conviction as to the conditions was reached only after he had come in personal contact with those conditions. In the hospitals. he went from ward to ward, almos: from cot to cot, stopping every few seconds to talk to the sick men and cheer them with a kind expression or a grasp of the hand. It was an experience not soon ty be for- gotten. Such a visit as President McKin- ley made to Camp Wikoff yesterday is al- most unique in military annals. He went to the camp, equipped with knowledge, judgment and experience, to make an in- vestigation. He had served in the camp and in the field himself, and he knew just what ought to be expected in the circum- stances. That he was reasonab!y well sat- isfied with the conditions as he found them is in itself a guarantee that they are not far wrong. “Conditions have changed materially cur- ing the third of a century since the civil war. This was noted especially by one of the old soldiers in our party yesterday. In the hospitals at Camp Wikoff the patients have plenty of Ice, milk, lemoas and many delicacies which were seldom seen in the | field hospitals during the last war. Then, H too, each cot is supplied with fresh, clean | sheets and pillow cases every day, and there are trained female nurses w wok after the wants of every paiien:. These things now are the tribute a grateful gov ernment pays to its splendid soldiers, who, in adding luster to the fame of thei> vour- try, have won for themselves a glory that time will not dim.” No Intention of Abandoning the Camp Secretary Alger said there was no inten- tion of abandoning Camp Wikoff. The troops will be kept there as it may be deemed desirable to keep up the camp. He pointed out that it was essentially a de- tention camp, a place of recuperation, and not a camp of mobilization. Naturally, therefore, as soon as it had served its purpose it would pass away as a military camp. A rumor was given some currency that the camp, having been found by the President to be unsuitable for its purposes, was to be abandoned immediately. This Secre- tary Alger pronounced to be without foun- dation. It probably grew out cf the order issued by the President that the regulars at Camp Wikoff, whose former posts had been east of the Mississippi river, proceed as soon as possible to their cld stations. Secretary Alger said that this order had been decided upon ten days ago and had no possible relation to the condition of the camp. ——__——_ + e+ PROTECTION OF OFFICERS.

The St. Louls-Cleveland series, scheiu'ed for the latter city, will probably be trans- ferred to Louisville. Capt. William Joyce of the New York Base Ball Club denies the statemert that Seymour and Meekin refused to- relieve Rusie in Friday's game at Fittsburg. In fact, he says, neither man was asked to go in and pitch. Meekin, he said, was recov- ering from a lame arm, and If he put Sey- mour in to pitch he would have had no one to play in right field. A dispatch from Louisville, Ky., says: “Ducky” Holmes, the Baltimore left fielder, is again in trouble.
