Ten nit Champion of Horthtrott RESULT 1$ SURPRISE OF THE TOURNAMENT , --, i Clfkawa ,Wtrs' , front Holland and latherwIeBf from Peters, Wli -.' ' Alsn 43lea , Onna for ' 'Wonder Many. Uurprlse ' were the order of - t,ha day Wednesday at the third day' play f the Middle West -tennis- tournament at the Omaha PleM club. Of course the greatest surprise waa the defeat of Collins, the great 'Chicago champion, by Sanderson of Galesburg. Oilman also took an unexpected victory from Holland and Blatherwlck beat Pfrters. ' ' The putting out of .the twa Chicago crack wss- entirely unlooked for. Both these players were looked upon as being the moat likely, jnen for -the, semi-finals, and, their dofeat was a complete reversal of the dope booh, Collins haa.the finest form In tennis of anyone .who -ha , appeared on these oosrt for raaoy year, but that alone will Hot fount, as waa shown last year, when Hayes beat Peters. Peters waa playing In perfect form, but Hayes had more ability to gt over the ground. Tha Chicago Doys are usetf to grass courts, and on these the cuts' are most jnncient, but they are of little use on the fast clay courts of the . Field, club. On the grass court the ball v.1! I respond to the cuts they givd It, while , n the clay courts H keeps on Its wsy: Their t-noie Js moat beautiful to watch and their troxc are perfect, 'but When an athlete with ability to cover "the ground, a Hayes and Blatherwlck hare, com along, ' the grass court men are at a disadvantage, for In a long game they seem to wear out and succumb before the more athletic fel low. Another Instance of this waa when Frank Eberhardt beat Hunt here several years ago. .,. Collins. Bv Thorooahbred. Collins showed himself a thorough sports man in,.hl mntchtwlltK Sanderson when he refused to - take' a, decision of the umpire which he 'dld not' think waa right.' and served a double fault .Into the net to even' up matters. , 4,4-..: s,.

' The victory of ..Sanderson over Collins In, the fourth .round -Was toe surprise of the week. . Collins had been generally 'picked' as" the wlnnerof tha tournament and many thought, 'after aeelrig tyrn ploy, that he' would fc have little, difficulty In. defeating Mayes, the present .bolder, .AH were sur prised when- Sanderson Jumped out and won the first three games of the first set. Collins seemed to. lack, the life which usually chaaaetarrses .his. play and could do nothing, with Sanderson's high lobs. Sanderson seemed to excel at this style of -day 'and won' the first set, 8-4. Collins braced In the 'second set and won fast' ' Here "he played' all,, around Sander son and passed him . continually, . keeping the ball nearer the ground than had been the caae iw (he first set. He "waa full of ginger and. showed something of his real form? ' Thar fast work of this ' set ' seemed to tlrs Collins, .who. seem to be not .much of' an athlete,. and the hot rays of the sun wore him 'down-, so' 'the laat set was easy' for Sanderapn and i.-tha . gallery wondered If It, wss really aCraigrt Collins, who had not lost a' -'tonrrmrhent for fifteen . yeafl outside of ' the: kattohat.; ..

We have tid wslts, but everything ' Is run off according to schedule. - The gracious . entertaliuncnt which is .extended to the visitors cannot help but make a man feel that Omaha is a good place to visit, and, win or rose, I will sutely come here again. Hospitality is on of the, prerequisites of' business and when you can make t-atranfeera fel.. at home, as the visitors have been' made; to feel at this tournament, it Is surely a great-help to the city. 'The courts At the Field club are as well situated as any I ever saw, for the gallery and 'the people of Omaha show thy - appreciate this by turning , out whenever a'- good ' match Is billed."

Jack Hughes and Herb Kohn took a fall out of Ced Potter and' -Robert pinning In the doubles. Potter had been- to Okobojl and had not played any sinew the city tournament, so waa out of ' form. Th local players are considerably - outclaaaed by the players from abroad thia year, and while this makes a better tournament, it doea not give the gallery any .local men to pull for. Holland and Young had little difficulty In inning from West and McConnell. They did not have to exert themselves In this match aud their stock' has gone up con siderably1' In the double. The strong play of the team was the ernes-court cutting of Young. McConnell had difficulty in . re turning some of the hard drives ;whlch were tired st' him' by the' older men. al though he was more accurate In hi re turns than' West. ' " i - , COllfna and PeterV had a walkaway In the match-with Perry &imJ. Potter, "winning 6-i, 6-1. Many have ptcked this team as the' winner bf the doubles, although ther are several other strong teams to be reck oned with. 'Voth these players are finished plakers and can oover th ground. Both have good serves and watch for an opening to place the bail. . . Hayes and Blatherwlck had a-workout with Atterbury and Sullivan,, but had little difficulty- in . winning.

TEKKIS TOIRSJEY n NEWPORT Wright and Ward Become Permanent Owner of Doable' Trophy. ' NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 22. Two cham pionship cups were lifted and another Firmly fixed for at least one year more in the tennis at the Casino to-day. Beals V. Wright of Boston and Holcotnb Ward of Orange, N. J., became the permanent own ers of the double trophy-by defeating H. H. Hackett and F. B. Alexander of New York. 8 sets to 1; while Karl H.

Ward nnd Wright defending their title aaralnat Hackett and Alexander, the champions ot the east, and winning, 6-3, 8-6. 6-8, 6-8. ' The Behr-Larned contest waa In the second- round of the all-comers tournament, and the score was 6-4, 6-4, 7-5. The result of the doubles was expected by many, but Lamed' s defeat was unlooked for. Behr waited -until the -first set was well advanced before he bea-an running his service. After that he played very fast. The doubles match was a much harder fought contest than that of last year, when the same quartet met In the challenge match. Ward's play. In view of his ab sence from the game since his return from Europe, was a surprise, while the team work of Hackett and Alexander showed considerable Improvement. Wright Is rap Idly rounding Into shape for- the cham pionship match In singles next week. Practically the entire second round of thirty-two matches In the singles tourna ment whs cleared during the day and a good beginning made on the sixteen In the third round. Except for the Behr-Larned Contest '. there were ' few surprises, end straight set victories prevailed. GAMES 15. THE IfATtOlKAL LEAOIK Chicago Defeats Philadelphia la Hard Foaaht Contest.

Dodg told Pa Rourke Isat week He wanted to go home and Pa advised him to wait and seo If they had killed the fatted calf. If he hasn't heard yet he can get a fatted calf or most any other old thing from a whole lot -of fan here In Omaha if he. will only go home. If Omaha had had a pitcher In the first five and two-thirds ' Innings yesterday It would have won that ' game from Des Moines hands down,, for It lambasted Mr. Oillen from on end -of the field to the other. The only reason In the world that the Champion had a look-in on the score was that Dodge couldn't see the plate. He looked like a man working under a high state of excitement throwing rings at a circle of canes. .H. simply cut loose and let the ball go, and- sometime It went over the plate; other time It bored a batter In the back or gave him his base. He did bout everything - a pitcher could do h struck out batters, hit them, waa hit by them, gave them their baae on balls and made one balk. The score was 18 to 9, Omaha getting fifteen hlta to Des Moines' 9. Six Rnna In First Inntnar. Dodge didn't only go up In a balloon after he got to the grounds; he went out there In one and never got out. Schlpke, the first man up, was given his base. O'Leary, the second man up, was given his base. Then the unexpected happened when Perrlng failed to get a short grounder of Welday's. Dexter at this trying moment banged out a two bagger. Then Andreaa singled, Ho grlever struck out, Magoon singled. Wolf struck out and, evidently afraid things might lag a little, podge gave out another pass to Gillen. Then Schlpke, his second time up In the Inning, singled, and O'Leary went out from Rnnkle to Dr5n. Net re sults: Four hits, three buses on Valla, sis runs. ' ' This, was enough to send everybody home, but through sympathy -most of the fans stayed. It transpired that tho Rourke had brought out their batting clothes, which they always do when Oillen Is In the box. Bassey get two strike and then sent the ball kiting to center tight for a clean thre bagger. Howard fanned and Perrlng went out from short to first, scoring Bassey. Autrey walked and Welch got a double, but Dolan couldn't ante. Omaha Adds Mora Rnns. Des Moines was blanked for three sue cesslv Inning, while Omaha kept adding rnna to its list of one obtained In- th Aral Inning. Runkle opened the second with a single and Oondlng followed suit and Dodge mind you, sacrificed.. Baasey was an easy out, but Howard singled, giving the sld two runs.1 In the third Welch, after two are out, gets his .second two-bagger and old Joe plants one against the center-loft field fence for a' double,, scoring Welch, Runkle popped up a foul to the catcher, making two outs', but "Gondlng drove the bail tb the fence, for thre base just the same, sending Dolan across the plate; or rather Corns, who-had run In from second for Joe. This made it to, I and m tha fourth Inning Omaha tied the cor on a single by Perrlng and a double by Autrey. The Champions added one in the fifth and in the sixth Dodge 'reached his climax and was relieved by-MeNeeley. Before going Dodge hit BohlpkeWrW -Wetday and when McNeeiey-iftepped fhto the box two men were on baseV' Andreas cracked tha first ball Mae, pitched for a single and by the time th Inning ended three more run were on the the list. Pes Moines got another one in the seventh....- ' ' That Errof, of Perrlna's. Omaha's error column shows two against RunMe. On was palpable, the other was a hard chance. Howard's one bad error marred, an otherwise brilliant game. Per rlng' error, the first he has mad In a long time, came . at, a moment when . it meant the opening wedge for two run If not more. Two men were on baae and no run In when Welday dropped the ball In front of George who was playing for a bunt... It fooled Perrlng and bounced once, going through . his legs. It afforded a splendid chance for a double play, but Instead six runs came in after the play. But.lt is doubtful 1 even this would have kept Mr.' Dodge from giving the game away.' Perrlng played his regular gilt-edged game after thatv getting two put-outs and four assists, making some of the greatest sort of throws. Johnnie Gondlng. and Howard led at the bat with three hits apiece and Autrey, Welch and Pei ring. came along with two each, Autrey' and Welch' being two baggera. Every hit of Omaha' was clean cut and hard, allien 1 one of the easle.U pitcher in th league for the Rourke. Autrey I not only making good at the bat, but 1 fielding his position in great shape and is wide awake at every turn of th run. He looks like a great find. - It wa Sander' day to pitch, but h had a sore hand and Oh, mercy, what a pity! Lynch proved badly oft frequently on ball and strikes, but neither team got th worst of th decisions. Th same teams play today. The score: DES MOINES. c v. . - AB. R H. PO. A. E.

AMERICAS. ASSOCIATION MEETS Cases of Kelley nnd Lydlard Referred to National t'ounalsslon. MILWAUKEE. Aug. Sl-The caae of Manager M. J. Kelley and Secretary L. A. Lydlard of the Minneapolis btuie ball club, who were cited to appear and show cause why they should not be expelled for thtlr alleged connection with the charges against Umpire Clarence Owens, who was accuaed of wagering money on the Mlnne-apolia-Columbus aeries played In Minne apolis several weeks ago and who was Utbi aisiulttwd, came to an abrupt ending this evening after the passage of a resolu tion offered by Charles S. Havenor of Mil waukee and seconded by T. J. Bryce of Columbus, referring the whole matter to the National Base Ball commission. This action was taken in view of the fact that earlier In the day the control of the Mln neapolia club passed Into new hands, the new owner being Gus Koch of this city. Kelley and Lydlard, by disposing of their stock, sever their connection as officers of the club: this situation rendering it un necessary for the board of directors of the American association to take action in their cases. The resolution includes a request that the National Base Ball commission, at the earliest possible opportunity, take such action In reference to L. A. Lydlard and M. J. Kelley as In Its Judgment seems best and proper. Randolph Beats BlooaaSeld. RANDOLPH. Neb., Aug. 22. (Special Tel egram.)
