JJe t Form.
The Interstate Tennla tournament , which
taaa been going on In the courts of the
Omaha Lawn Tecnls association at Twenty-
third and Harney streets for the past week ,
was completed yesterday afternoon , when
Wynne Carver defeated W. D. Bond In the
finals in the singles. The end ot the tour
ney was marked after the set had been
played by the presentation of the prizes
to the winners , who were all Chicago men ,
Carver and Waldncr , and Dond and Hardy ,
respectively first and second in tbo doubles
and Carver aud Dond first and second In
the singles.
The seml-flnnls wcro played off yesterday
morning and resulted as was anticipated.
Carver beat Condco and Dond did the same
thing to Young. Neither of the matches
was of much Interest because the victors
clearly outclassed their opponents.
Carver was never pressed to win and
therefore ho played an easy game. His
placing brought him the victory. Condee
was unable to figure out just where the balls
wore coming , although Carver by no means
exerted himself to keep ttiein very far out
of his reach , except when a point was
needed. Condco did some very nice placing
himself and made some very pretty strokes ,
The match was the best throe out of five.

Hand had as llttlo difficulty with Young ,
He apparently felt that he had no need to
play hard , and therefore Ills game was not
marked with the terrific drives and smashes
that have been a feature of his other
matches , but his placing was very clever
and was responsible for his victory. At
times Young took a brace aud made things
interesting for bis opponent , and consequently
quently there was a number of long deuce
games , The score of the match was :

FIGHT FOIl FINALS.
The finals in the singles were played yes
terday afternoon In the presence of a very
( air attendance. It has been anticipated
that the match would be a good one , as
lloud and Carvnr are easily thu strongest
two ot the Chicago contingent and con
sequently of the entire lot ot players who
took part in the tournament. Up to the
fourth set this expectation was fully met
and especially in the third , which proved
to bo a remarkably line exhibition ot tennis.
It looked like a fight from the very start ,
although Dond won the first set with ease.
Carver was not yet warmed up to his work ,
but gradually became livened up. The
second sot he won , but not without a pro
test from Dond , who succeeded In getting
tinco guinea. The third get , decided the
match and wan hard fought. Only after a
core of 0-7 did Carver dually wrest It from
lit * opponent. Then Dond going on the
theory that the third set decided a match ,
gave up and allowed Carver to take the
fourth without opposition.
The deciding sot was a. brilliant exhibi
tion , There were many fine rallies , especi
ally tlio a with both player * right up to
the net. . In the latter , the honors were
about oven. Bond made a winning stroke
as often as his opponent. But with one
or the other away from the net Carver
had slightly the advantage. It was then
that ho got in his superb placing which
won him the set and the match.
CARVER DETERMINED TO CONQUER.
Carver was at service first and won his
gamo. Each got a game on his service tintil
the score was 3-2 In Carver's favor. Then
the latter took the aggressive to gain a game
on Bond's service , and succeeded In doing
so by his placing , the score being game to
fifteen. He followed this by getting another
on his own service , making the score 5-2.
At this point Bond did as well. He got the
game on his service and then won the one
on Carver's after it bad been deuce twice.
obtaining it by three brilliant successive
passes. The match seesawed hero for four
games , each getting two alternately. Then
Carver went In tb win and got the next two
games and the match , the last six points of
his eighth being1 beautiful clean passes. The
closeness ot the set is Indicated by the
score , which shows that Carver won oat by
only two points over his opponent.
Many of the strokes made by both players ,
especially In the third set , were fine and
some ot the returns looked almost marvelous.
This was especially the case In the rallies
when both the players were up to or near
the net. These rallies wcro usually end * > d
by some clean cross court passes to the
right or left , although occasionally the play
ers would drive the ball into each other in
a way that prevented a return.
The placing of both players was of a high
order and Intelligent , but it was hero that
Carver was evidently at an advantage , par
ticularly when ho had driven his opponent
Into the back of his court. Ho kept him to
ono side by three or four strokes along one
of the side lines and then coaxed htm to
ward the net and drove by him or sent a ball
Into the other far corner. Carver's skill In
this regard did not , however , seem to be
much greater than Bond's. Doth showed
great cunning In sending the balls within
a few inches ot the side and base lines , But
Carver excelled In knowing when to put In
the drlvo that was meant to gain the point.
A word should be said about the lobbing ,
which was as line as the other features of
the play. It was very accurate and beauti
ful. Both players frequently succeeded In
lobbing the ball high In the air from one
base line to the other , the ball alighting
within a few Inches ot the latter. The
stroke was used early lu the match , but in
frequently after the players wcro warmed
up. Both paid a good deal attention to their
service. Dond tried his fierce stroke only
a few times and without success , When he
did get the ball over the net Carver always
successfully returned it , Ho made several
points , however , on a ball which he sent
near the side lines and well up from the
service line , Carver made only one point
directly on his service stroke and made sev
eral double faults. The score of the match

The soliciting committees of the Trans-
mlsslsslppl Exposition held the usual Satur
day night meeting at the Commercial club
rooms last night , for the purpose of ex
changing notes and reporting to thu secre
tary the total amount of the subscriptions
collected during the past week. The lists
now lu the hands of the secretary show
that the total amount of stock subscribed Is
$260.000 , which Is just $40,000 less than Hit ,
amount which must be raised before the
government appropriation becomes avail
able. The committees decided last night
that they would continue the work of solicit
ing just ono week longer. The consensus of
opinion was to the effect that the patience
of the soliciting committees had about
reached the full limit , and the committee *
men expressed the Idea that they had done
about all that an unreasonable public bad
any right to expect.
Among the subscriptions turned In last
night was a list from the smelting works
employes , on which 117 employes had sub
scribed $1.470 The employes of the Union
stock yards subscribed $1,600 to date , the
Hat not being completed. The employes In

COAL PRICES PUSHED UP
Will Cost Money for Omaha People to Keep
Warm Next Winter.
COMBINE HAS NOW AGREED ON THE PRICE

People who ha\e Iccn kicking because they
wore compelled to pay $9.75 per ton for their
winter's coal will bnvo to kick just a llttlo
harder after the first of next month. It Is
a foregone conclusion that coal will go up
50 or 75 cents a ton on or about September
1 and there is no assurance that the com
bination that at the present tlmo has a
viccllko grip on the coal market will not
conclude to continue to bull prices during
the season. The first Intimation of the
advance came In the fallowing telegram
which went over the Associated press wires
yesterday :
"Nn\V YORK. Aug. 22. The Delaware ,
Lackawanna & Western rallioad will , on
September 1 , advance freight rates on
anthracite coal 25 cents per ton , westbound
tu anil Including Buffalo , ami castbound 15
cents per ton. The other anthracite
companies will make similar advances on
September 7. "
It now develops that the advance Is not
on rates alone. The coal tiust is now de
livering hard coal at Chicago at $5.60 per
ton , which makes the cost at Omaha $9.GO , '
Local coal dealers have , for some days
past , receive. ! intimations that thcro would
bo an advance in railroad rates. They ex
pect that the Chicago price will be an
even JC , which Is the average high price of
coal at thut point In years , when the grip
of the combination is not broken ,
The market is controlled by u trust which
Includes both the inlnu operators and the
railroads , mid It Is understood that the
simultaneous advance In the market and the
fieight rates Is In accordance with a well
understood arrangement between the two
interests in the trust. The regular monthly
meeting of thu trust will bo held next Fri
day and the advance In market rates will
probably be decided on at that time. The
expectation la that these advances will make
the prlca to Omaha consumers $10.25 or
$10.50 in September.
According to the position of the coal deal
ers they make their price on the basis of
what they have to pay for the coal In Chicago
cage , plus the $3 freight rate to Omaha and
the cost of delivery. According to their
figures they arc buying coal In Chicago at
? 5.GO , paying ? 3 per ton freight rate and
seeling It in Omaha for 15 cents a ton more
than It costs them , exclusive of the cost of
delivery , which must come out of the 15
cents profit. Some other people refuse to
liollovo that the coal men ore thus benevo
lent , and aver that the assertion that every
ton of coal now being delivered costs the
dealer $9.60 Is to bo received with a couple
of dollars of allowance.
It Is urged that the dealers did not wait
for an advance before buying their season's
supply. That they have already purchased
