Both players cawed an Inenedlble amount ef court -and made fan possible appearing returns, but always, Murray was Just a trifle Isrster and harder hitting than Strachan. Ia the third and fourth sets Murray increased his efforts, while Strachan begaa to slow up. The former was able to reach the aet repeatedly iu his early rushes from hich points be smothered many of bis exponent's returns log to his long reach. Strachan tried playing low Shots to Murray's backhand and lobs to deep court, lilt-h at times temporarily checked the victor's rushes bnt this defense did not avail ln the long run. The rain halted tbe special exhibition between Miss Molla Jjurstedt.

I have ever had him and if yoa know of any real tough game around you can go ahead and match Downey for It, ss be will dispose of Wells tnd do it deetsivelv. Yoa know I know Wells and all about bis cleverness. Also, yoa know I do not make predictions without first going over every bit of ground. "We shall arrive In Rochester Sunday morning." The eight-round bout between Kid CSil-cago and Joe Miller is easily the most talked of match made for Rochester and Rochester boys since the famous Gouse vs. Nolan affair.

It certainly has caused more guessing. WTith each holding "a kayo victory over the other and both training to the, limit and not confined to any weight conditions, there is no reason why it shouldn't be a case of the better boy winning. The eight rounds scheduled for Benny Foster and Young Hurley, of Syracuse, may turn out to be a slashing event. Both boya put in a claim yesterday for the right to meet the winner of the Chicago vs. Miller bout, and it ia not unlikely that such a match will be held up as a prize by the club officials.

If Hurley turns out to be anything like as good as he is reported to have been before Syracuse clubs it will be a hard night for Foster. Hurley has bad main bouts there. Besides the mala event and the two eight-rounds mentioned there will be four-rounders to complete the program and in these preliminaries there will be a number of new faces. ROCHESTER.

im Forest Hills, Aug. 24. Playing tennis of the most strenuous California type, R. ILlndley Murray, of Niagara Falls, N. but foremrly of the Pacific coast, defeated John R.

Strachan, of San Francisco, 4 3, fr 3, 1, la the semi final rooaa of the national patriotic singles tournament to-day. The victory gave him the right to meet N. W. Niles, of Boston. Ln the clisaax.

of the tournament to-morrow. The match, the only one of the day's program to be completed, was played between thunderstorms aad to tbe accompaniment of frequent lightning flashes and rain. The weather conditions undoubtedly threw Strachan off his game to a considerable extent. The vivid flashes ef lightning aad peals of thunder caused him to stop several times ln the act of serving or receiving but he fought on grimly to the very end. Murray opened the play la most erratic fashion, being extremely wild ln both service and volley, while his opponent set an exceedingly fast and accurate pace, repeatedly passing or out-generalizing the np-state player.

Strachan was troubled by Murray's terrific service bnt the letter's errors more than offset his advantage ln this department the play. The ultimate Tictor began to swing lnt his real form in the second set, smashing or driving the ball back with a force whlca made the ring of the racket strings heard all over the stands. Strachan was not much behind the winner in this respect INABILITY OF LEAFS TO HIT YEAN GREGG COSTS FIRST PLACE Hearne Is No Trouble for Gray While Southpaw Strikes Out Eight. Toronto, Aug. 24.

M'KINNEY'S FIRST TO FORE Hilton-Owned Horse Winner of the Free-for-All Event at Warsaw.

Warsaw, Aug. 24. Horsemen from Rochester and thereabouts had wads of money with them to-day to speculate on the free-for-all event, the big noise in the Wyoming County Fair series of races. Yedno, from the well-known Webber stable, was established as a favorite and a lot of money went down on the horse. McKInney'sS First, owned by Chubby Charles Skinner, of Hilton, and capably driven by Arthur Haslip, however, showed the way In all three hvats.

Haslip's Babe also scored ln the 2:30 pace in straight heats, her fastest mile being 2:10 1-4. The summary of the free-for-all follows: McKinney's First, b. Charles Skinner, Hilton (A. J. Haslip) 11 1 Yedno, br.

When John Londe, 52 years old, a 4 i bartender, apoared for trial in police cotirt yesteTGay a charge of abandon- meat was vrithdrawn and he wa, arrest- ed by Iteotive Oiristie on a charge of bigamyyIIis wife, who caused his arrest 7 in ALoaay several days ago, on learns-' i inr -bf his alleged perfidy fainted. I 4-iaLonde had 1vine Wi KaNal Matchmaker Jake Carey yesterday got a long letter from Emil Thlry, manager of Bryan Downey, who is to meet Matt Wells in the Alrdome A. C. mala bout Monday night. Among other things the manager of Downey wrote was that folks who make predictions as to the winner of the coming bout would do well not to base them on what they saw Downey do against Johnny Riley and Fred Dyer.

Downey now Is fit for a bard winter campaign and be Is easily 60 per cent, ahead of anything be showed against Riley or Dyer. He was a bit stale when here before, as be had been out of the ring four months. Another thing, Jake Downey did not plan to box all summer and did not expect to have to extend himself when he agreed to the matches. "Thla bout with Wells will be little different than the one Downey had in Buffalo with Battling Gates, and you know what he. did to Gates.

Of coarse, yon can say that Gates will never approach Wells as a boxer. Perhaps not In the general estimation of the public, but I think he will. Gates was a finished boxer, though he got in over his head before he was rightly shaped op for tough customers. Wells has had the experience and If there Is sny-fhlng In a good boxer being good enough for a bard fighter be should be able to get along If by no other means than stalling. But I predict nothing will save him.

Downey will win hands down and It will be all over before the tenth round. "Downey is now stronger and faster than SCHOLASTICS AND TURN-VEREIN DO BATTLE TO-DAY Will Compete in Athletic Meet on West High Field. WESTERN STAR ENTERED V. P. Thomas, Once of Hock Island High, Should Trouble Sam Mar-zulo In Distance Runs Goodno and Hicks, Sprinters, Back for Meet There is bound to be some good track and field competition, when th Rochester Turn Vereln, All-Scholastic A.

C. and a host of individual and unattached entrants clash this afternoon on the West High athletic field, in the first of a series of meets oa the All-Scholastics' schedule. The Turn Vereln, scoring a come back ia track, should bother the All-Scholastic somewhat but a number of stars entered independently in the contests assure them of a fight. The field, due to last night's rain, is in good condition. The rule, allowing men to enter events on the field indiscriminately still holds good, and should bring in a number of representatives of local track organizations not entered up to last night.

All in all, with th All-Scholastic team la good trim, it should be a fast affair. Jim Rawnsley's boys, until yesterday spread over the state on miscellaneous duties, will be practically at war strength. Willard Hicks, who has been finishing his last week on the farm, blew into Jim's rooms yesterday announcing his readiness to spring. Harry "Red" Goodno will come down from Conesus lake this morning to help hla mates convert their first meet into a win. Harry Wignall and Harry Leonardo, other runners away, would- not surprise their coach if they' should be on band.

Sam Marzulo and Ed Hale will be relied upon by the Scholastlcs. Marzulo will have to travel in the SSO to win over V. P. Thomas, recently from Rock Island High in the Middle-West. Thomas entered wearing several gold medals for the middle-distance runs, when he applied for entrance He was a star in the scholastic circles in Illinois and will also run in the 220- yards dash and the broad jump, representing Lincoln Park.

Harvey Morgan, Carl Bennett and Elbert Angevine should bring the All-Scholastics through top la the field events. The following Turners will take the All-Scholastic lads to task to-day. Conrad Klrschner, Fred Ltrertzlng, Louis Szeles, Welker Haefele, Fred Klrschner and Joe Ulrich. The All-Scholastics will be: Captain Sam Marzulo, Ed Hale, Harry Goodno, Carl Bennett, Harvey Morgan, Harry Wignall, Wlllard Hicks, Henry Leonardo, Lyell Wood and Elbert Angevine. James Skeene will represent Rawnsley's School of Physical Culture.

Time 1:30. Rochester was very much of a minus quantity as regards to being opposed to a real ball club yesterday, and Baltimore won the verdict by 8 to 1. Al Schacht, who had rested for something like a week, was the primary number in a losing cause, being driven from the mound in the third inning. Joe Lotz, who relieved, earned the legacy of men on first and second with but one out- He whiffed the first batter to face him but a single and a triple followed and before the inning rounded out Baltimore had acquired four runs. Lotz struck out nine of the Orioles in his spell of six and two-thirds innings on the mound and after he really had become warmed up to the task before him he twirled a splendid brand of balL The runs scored off him in the third inning, could not properly be charged against him.

One run already was in and two Orioles were on the bags but with one out. The one run chalked against him in the sixth resulted from' a cluster of four errors. Follow. Out McGraw Idea. Jack Xhinn had the Orioles playing the game in the first inning according to the Johnny McGraw idea.

Acosta sin-pried and Fewster sacriflc-d him along. Barber chopped an infield hit Wendell. IMcAvoy drove the ball against the left field fence for what ordinarily would be a double, but the ball reboimdcd directly to Collins and was credited with but a single. Acosta, however, scored. Lawry advanced Barber and McAvoy with a sacrifice bunt.

McGraw methods failed to deliver further, however, as Bues was thrown out by Schepner Shannon's infield Lit, Schatlfele's sacrifice, Hill's infield out, Acosta's tripl? to right and Fewster's single to fehort gave Baltimore a brace runs in the second. McAvoy led off in the third with a double to the bull sign in loft. Lawry hit to Schacht, whose throw was too "belated to get McAvoy at third.

DOG LICENSES ARE HELD DP Wicks Law Has Not Yet Been.

Ptt, into Operation. Many applicants for dog licenses comae to the city clerk's office, only to be told by the. clerks that dog licenses are ready yet, that they cannot say when they will be, and that owners need not worry, as dogs will hot be molested until after the owners have had aa op portunuy to oorain new licenses. It is the opinion of the city clerk tbkt the dog license law cannot be enforced until an opinion on several of its 'provisions has been given, and profitably not nntil next year. The greater 'number of the dogs in Rochester were tagged and licensed before the new law went into effect, and the old licenses are good for the term for which they were tissued, which expires in May, 1918.
