TENNI3 EXPERTS IN MATCH GAMES Crowell and Collier Win the Davis Cups Again. ) Place Third Victory to Their Credit for the Tro- phies. The handicap doubles tournament for the Davis cups held yesterday on the Cal- ifornia Tennis Club courts was won in a clever fashion by H. W. Crowell and W. B. Collier. This is the third time the team has won a tournament of this kind. By winning the cups twice more they will { 8ain permanent possession of them. The opposing team in the finals was Chet Smith and James Code, the holders. Twelve teams contested and in the pre- liminary round four matches were played. The first was between R. B. Cornell and R. N. Whitney and the Wood brothers. The latter received odds of “thirty” and lost after a close struggle, the score being 5, 6—1. Frank Stringham and Will Allen al- odds of “fifteen” and won in straight sel 6—1, 6—4. C. Smith and Code received odd: of “fifteen”” from Merle Johnson and Gus Taylor and won, 2—6, 6—3, 6—4. Page Col- lier and Harry Gorham received ‘“‘half fif- ner and won in straight sets, 6—3, 6—3. In the first round Dick Adams James McKenzie received odds of “‘fifteen and owe half fifteen” from Coliler and Crowell. With the score standing 6—3, 2—6, 3—3, Adams and McKenzie withdrew and the match went to their opponents by default. In the next match, when the score stood 6—3, 2—6, 3—2, Cornell and Whitney defaulted to Stringham and Al- len. The latter received odds of “‘fifteen. Smith and Code allowed P. Collier and Gorham odds of “half fifteen”” and won in straight sets, 7—5, 6—3. In the last match of this round Paul Jones and Herman Powers allowed Clyde Beal and Al Ken- yon odds of “fifteen and owe half fifteen.” The latter won in straight sets, 8—6, 6—2. In the semi-finals both matches were ex- ceedingly close, and in each the winning team were victors after losing the first set. Collier and Crowell allowed String- ham and Allen “fifteen” and won, 3—6, 6—2, 6—2. The scratch men were slow to start, but when once fairly under way they won handily. The match between Hunt and Code and Beal apd Kenyon was a repetition of the preceding match. Beal and Kenyon were allowed odds of “half thirty” and won the first set. The next two sets were taken easily by Smith and Code. The score in their favor was 4—, 6—2, 6—1. The final match between Collier and Crowell and Smith and Code was the best of the day. The former allowed the latter odds of “fifteen” and won, 6—4, 2—6, 6—0. Young Smith played a fine game in this match, especially in the first and second sets. His efforts left him tired in the last set. His smashing was swift and his drives well placed. | . In a practice match A. W. Worthington beat Joe Daily, 6—0, 6—0, 6—0. The winner has been improving rapidly of late, and although his style is pecullar it is_effec- tive. Worthington allowed Mr. Hendry odds of “thirty” and was beaten, 2—§, 6—4, OLYMPIC CLUB HANDBALL GAMES STILL CONTINUE Tournament Is Gradually Reaching the All-Important Final Series of Match Contests.

In the sixth inning “Youngey’ Johnson was sent out to coach in an en- deavor to rattie "‘Rube.” 'I'he two base- ball comedians tried to outdo one another in amusing the spectators and succeeded admirably. When “Rube” found the new man on the coachers’ line he gravely bow- ed and took off his cap. Later in the inning he walked over and shook hands with Johnson. After the game some spectator threw a cushion onto the field from the stand. Another and then another was thrown until the air was filled with the harmless missiles. They were thrown back into the grand stand and returned again. In the mece a policeman’s helmet was knocked off. Its owner added to the hilarity of the occasion by chasing a small boy in and out among the thou- ds of spectators who had made their Wi to the fleld. No arrests. The All-Americas scored their first run in the fourth. Barrett, the first man up, hit past Iburg, the ball bounding off his glove and out toward Krug. Barrett was safe before it could be fielded to first. Mercer was safe on Shay’s fumble. La joie hit to Shay and forced Barrett at third. Davis flew to deep left field and Mercer scored on the throw in. Bradley h‘ié to shortstop and was out, retiring the side.

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 8—In about three weeks the Department of Indian Affairs at Washington will have laid before it a report from Major James - McLaughlin and Indian Agent Wright, on which will be based a decision as to what is to be done with the Indians at present in the reservation on Warner's ranch. These Indians in five reservations— Puerta La Cruz, Mataguay, Puerta Chi- cita, San Jose and Agua Caliente—must be moved soon, for the decision of the Supreme Federal Court is that the land belongs to J. Downey Harvey of Los An- geles, and that the Government never had a right to locate the reservations on the ranch. . The case of the Indians on the San Fe- lipe ranch is practically the same, though the decision of the court has not vet been written. Major McLaughlin states that the Government has given up the idea that there is any Government land in this section of the country which is suitable for a reservation, for every piece of land that is tillable has long since been taken by white settlers and even some of the reservations, as they are now located, are on the sides of mountains where the In- dians have a hard time to exist. The two officlals have been making a ten days' trip through the valleys of San Diego County looking at certain lands which had been considered suitable for reservations, and which had been offered to the Government. At least. 2000 acres of areable land is wanted with a water sup- ply that can be used for irrigation. Two or three suitable locations have found on the trip and the two agents DECEMBER 9, HEAVY HITTERS HOTME TEAM CLEVERLY 1901, The score of yesterday’s game: SAN FRANCISCO, AB. R. BH. SB.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8.—Five thousand people saw Morley’s heavv hitters take the second baseball game from the Na- tionals by a score of 9 to 2. It was a game full of batting. clever fielding and constaht kicking.® Both teams took turns objecting against Decker’'s decisions. Some of the objections were not without cause. Decker appeared erratic on balls and strikes. “Buck” Francks took Stein- feld's place at short and played a bril- liant game. His fielding of a liner from Hemphill's bat in the seventh was a clever piece of work. Hulen played third for the visitors, McHale going to left fleld. Van Haltren appeared off in his flelding, two errors being marked up against him, The Angels commenced scoring in the first inning. Hemphill singled, House- holder walked, and Kihm's hit to left went past McHale, scoring Hemphill and Householder. Hall lined out a high one to center, which Van Haltren fumbled. Hall stole second, and Chance's wild throw allowed Kihm to score. Reilly fol- lowed with a safe hit to left fleld, scor- ing Hall. Again in the sixth and sev- enth innings the Los Angeles batters fell on Doyle's curves, and five men made their bases. In the seventh Kihm sent the balil soaring far above the left fleld fence for a home run. Hall also dropped a three-bagger in center field. Hartwell's nervousness allowed the Na- tionals to make three runs in the fourth. He became rattled and threw wild to first instead of catching Hulen at the plate. He steadied down, however, and, with good support, held the visitors down until the seventh, when Dougher- ty's error in letting McHale's single go under the fence cost three runs. Bat- NEW DYNAMITE GON 15 TESTED Board of Army Officers Will Make Report to Government. SAVANNAH, Ga., Dec. 8.—The test of the new pneumatic dynamite gun at Hil- ton Head, S. C. yesterday under the auspices of a board of army officers Is be- lieved to have been satisfactory. Major Ira 'McNutt of the ordnance department was chief officer of the board. The gun is at the entrance to Port Royal harbor, which it commands. It shows that the gun has a range of 6000 yards. Eight projectiles loaded with explosive gelatin were fired. Six of them exploded upon impact and threw columns of water into the air. Two were fired with time fuses. If they were exploded it was at such a depth under water that there was no dis- turbance discernible. ~ The explosive charges ranged from 50 to 200 pounds of nitro-gelatin. Five dummies were fired to test the speed. The Government required that they should be discharged in twenty minutes. The time taken to fire them was ten and one-half minutes. Forty dum- mies of 1180 pounds each were then fired. There was no hitch. Train Crushes His Leg. REDDING, Dec. 8.—Frank E. Whipple, a resident of Eureka and employed at the Tellurium mine, at Middle Creek, lost the lower part of his right leg this morning in a train accident. He was walking along the track as a fast freight train approached from behind. He thought it was on the main track and sprang upon the siding. The wheels passed over his right leg at the calf.
