The preliminary skirmishes for the Inter- istato tennis champlonalilp took place yeatc'- dny morning on the grounds of the Thistle club , at Twenty-eighth and Howard street * . Many crack players from Chicago , Kansai City , Hlnsdale , 111. , and other places , to- BCther with the beet local wlelderi of the racket , were at the grounds of the Oma'ia Tennis club early yesterday morning , but it woo found that the rain of the day before had left the grounds damp and muggy. It was. therefore , decided to play two of the matches In singles upon the Howard street courts. Accordingly Van Urunt of Kannas City and Ezra Mlllard of Omaha pulled off the flrut match In B nglca. The contest vvai a pr tty one and nhouoi ] Mlllard to he In excellent form. The winning points wrnt to Mlllard with a score of 4-C. C-2 , C-2 In the prc- llmlnary round Condec of Chicago beat lllpley of Hlnsdale 7-5 , G-4. . In the afternoon the courts ol the llarnev ntrcct club were pronounced In condition nnd promptly at 2 o'cloik the games were started with four courts In full sw'ag Al though the sun threw Its rays in a pretty direct line upon the claj , the air was cool nnd bracing , and each man went Into hla position with a vigor which promised much of Interest to the spectators. The pla > lng , however , was rather slow at tlmca and lacked coloring from the fact that many of the men , both In the skiglen and doubles , were unevenly matched. Ae the sun dropped along over the horl/on the bleachers skirt ing the west side of the grounds began to DII up with feminine friends and many a tired man itook unto himself a hustle. Aa the weaker mcmbcra gradually dropped out the work grew a trifle more lively. Suggestions as to who the coming rham- lilon will bo were many , particularly among the fair divinities on the bleachers , hut the guessing was wild , and was not based upon anything moro thin personsl favoritism Along In the afternoon Ralph Condeo and Johnson of Chicago and J J Bowcrintk of Kansas City appeared to be played as favor ites In the pick among the visitor * , and Hey Austin , Cnltlngham ami Con Young among the Omaha bojs. Tlie fact that frank Has- Itell Is at present at Spirit Lake and was not able to enter the tournament Is de plored by many of the Omaha men , as It Is confidently declared by them that ho would materially atsl t the Omaha ho > in pre serving the credit of the city with the visitors. Among the joungcr members of ihi > fra ternity whose plajlnt ; was worthy ofpedal mention was Magcc of Chlf-go. Although defeated uy Iouir ) ock In the olnglc , he showed up In gooj.1 form In the douhltti with Mlllard as partner , and the two captured the match with Itlley and Shelby almost In a walk away , with a store of C 2 , 0-3. The fact that ho la unfamiliar with the courts has Interfered with much of his work which WPS shown by the steady Improvement he exhibited later In the nflcrnoon. The playing was continued last evening until night clo ed In and an unusually large cumber of games were completed The playIng - Ing each day henceforth will turn out let ter exhibitions , as the field dwindles to a battle of the best men. The following Is a record of games lost and won : SINGLES : Preliminary round : LaUo brat Coleman , C-3 , S-10 , 0-1. Condee of Chicago beat UJpley 6t , Hlusilale , 7-5 , 0-4.

The Detroit Western league team anJ the University club team pinoil a very closer and Interesting pa mo at the Miami Street park yesterday afternoon While the crowd In attendance was In nowlso distinguished for Its bulklness , It was fair In slzo and en thusiastic to a degiec. The game was a pretty one from the be ginning to the end , nild whllo the leaguers did not appear to exert themselves to any \ory noticeable extent nt any stage of the game , Itao quite patent that they realized that they had stacked up ngalnst an enemy worthy of some considerable exertion to overcome. To begin with , the locals were pigmies at the bit , a lamentable weakness In the team this season , but on the bases and In the field they Eliono like stars of the fiist magnitude , In fact , far surpassed the exploits of their dlollngulshcd opponents Henry Clirko , an Omaha boy , and recently of the Chicago University and Cleveland IOIRUO team , pitched for the Universities , and to say that he acquitted himself In a capital wav Is In noulso overdrawing the thing. In all but the sixth Inning ho had the sturd > Wolverines at his mcrcj and It looked as If the argument between the two aggregations was an even break , but It vvacn't. In the sixth Colonel Graves' gang struck a Klondike bit of luck and connected with Henry for five consecutive hits , three of which were of the scratch order , and won the game , for with the aid of another hit they ooored llvo runs , and that was a plenty. Ihu Abbotts Htiove manfully to oveicomc this lead , but their efforts were unavailing. Ihu Mlchlgamlers simply lobbed through the b-alnuce of the game , and at the end had succeeded In corralling Just twice as miny i JHS as we had The name teams play again this afternoon , when "Mobile" Mcllvalnc , the wonder of the Southern hemisphere , will surmount the slab for the Universities.

PITTSfUIUO. Aug. IS. The striking mtnerfl encamped at the mlnra of the New York and Cleveland 0 s Coal company did not march this morning as they had planned to do It was their purpose lo start for the mines htvuled by a brass band and march until the sheriff stopped Ihem. They did not anticipate , howevor. that the sheriff had Ids men o close to their camps. At Turtle Creek , the men formed In line and when they wore ready 10 start they beheld the deputies standing just outside of the camp. The match was at once alxindoned and small parties number ing from two io six each were Instructed to patrol the woods In the neighborhood of the mine and report the number of men going to vvcfk They were Instructed to keep moving and If approached by a deputy sheriff to gqt awny an rapidly as powlble to escape the service of the Injunction If possible. Tin leaders propose In this w.iy to harra s tin deputies and the Do Armltts They sa ; there are 20 009 men In the district , and tha the Injunction will have to be read 20.00 ( times before the attacks upon the miners n Oak Hill , Sandy Creek and Plum Creel cease unlCM the mines are sooner closoi dow n. The men followed the Instructions , but were unable to learn Just how many diggers went into the pit today The output of tin Oak Hill mlno yesterday was seven cars o lumn coal and two of slick and nut , or abou ISO tons. This shows a gain for the company though no claim of an lncre'ased force Is made bv the Do Armltts nnd the strikers an scrt that only twenty-two men are at work A tnae-s meetli.g ot miners , and cltl/ens hat been called to bo held at Monongahela City tonight Saturday afternoon a mass meet Ing will bo held at Canonaburg.

I Is expected to make this meeting the larges ever held and one of the big events of thi Strike Judges Stnwo ami Collier handed down their opinion In the miners' injunction case shortly after 10 o'clock this morning The decision makes the preliminary Injuiictlor permanent. NO HISC IN PRICK OP COAL. The price of coal , which Is reported to have advanced at almost every point in the country east of the Missouri river and at all Missouri and Mississippi river point since the great stilko began seven weeka ago , shows no material Increase at Pitts- burg. The uillng figure In barge lots Is fiffGi/i cents per bushel. There Is no shortage - ago of the supply and the demand Is only ordinary. 1 he present holdings In the Plttsburg market are not far from 7,000,001 bushels nnd the greater part of this vvll ho held by the opeiators until ( he supply at the Ohio river markets has reached low ebb , when , with an opportune rise It vvll : bo shipped below at a profit larger than ev er before. Plans arc being formed for the malnle- nacic * > of the strikers and their families fern n prolonged period The expense of carry ing on the strike Is placed at $500 a day end appeals are coming in every day for help for families In the mining villages A house to house canvass In Pittsburg ami Allegheny has been decided on for the pur pose of collecting money and piovislons Permission was given by the aiith&rlties and a srart was made Ii Allegheny today The li'aders are hopeful that enuough funds will be secured In this way to carry them through the great struggle. The action at the meeting of the coal operators at Cleveland yesterday is In ac cordance with the plan mapped out after the unlfoimlty agicement had been formu lated The agreement piovidcs that nil coal contracted for on the 51-cent basis shall bo mined at that into until the contracts mo filled. It is known that the require ments of the lake trade by September 15 lie 0,000000 tons If the contracts are not filled the operators will not only Icso a largo amount of mousy but put themselves in a position to lose contracts for all time tocnme.
