I must also show the people that I have my mind on the game and my eye on the ball Instead of thinking of the new epoch In my life. I must also reach the Initial bag so as to give encouragement to the crowd and other batters that follow me, for Kansas City is five runs to the good and we must win this battle." Such were the musings of Orville "Woodruff, newly married, as he sauntered to the plate, the first batter up in the last of the eighth inning In the game with Kansas City yesterday afternoon. Up until that time Woodruff had played a star game at third and was in the battle with his club, showing no fiightlness as one in hi3 position might do. lie realized that unless he did something for his country the fiverun lead secured by Kansas City In the opening of the eighth might prove enough to give the visitors the game. lie connected safely and the crowd began to cheer. Kihm followed with a smash that was so warm that McAndrews could not handle It and he perched on first. O'Brien followed with a single and Coulter pranced home. By this time the rooters were on their Xeet yelling themselves hoarse. They cheered and yelled and poked each other below the shoulder proclaiming that the Hoosiers would win out in spite of the big odds against them. Kmil fertig took his position in front of the left bleachers and there was an Incessant uproar. It only decreased a trifle when O'Brien was forced at second by Coulter's effort to Grady. McDonald was rapidly tearing away from his moorings and Kuhns coaxed him for free transportation, filling the bags. Heydon dropped one in left for a single and Kihm and Coulter pranced home. The reserve rooting force was brought Into play and McDonald felt himself dragging his anchor. He could not settle down and when Williams dropped an easy one in front of the piatc McDonald fumbled it and went on tin atrial flight. He was sent to the bench and Gibson went to the slab. The change of faces did not affect Hogriever and he picked out a good one for a single to right, Kuhns and Heydon scoring and Williams going to third. The score was tied and the crowd was Irantic. Captain Fox asked for a runner for Williams, but this was not allowed and Williams was taken off the base and Kellum pJt in to run for him. The change was not made until after Fox declared that Williams was out of the game. Hogriever had taken second when the ball was fielded to third and when Fox hit over third Kellum and Hogriever scored. Fox went to second on a wild pitch. Woodruff struck out the second time at bat, but Kihm hit to Lewee and the latter made a wild throw XUest. a1J.P Fox to eccre. making xfrt eighth run in that inning. O'Brien walked, but Coulter was retired on a line drive to McAndrews. KILLEN CHECKED VISITORS. Killen went to the slab for Indianapolis In the ninth and retired Kansas City without a run, thus ending a game that was lull of excitement, much batting and brilWEATHER FORECAST.

llant play.. Indianapolis took the WI in the first inninK. with three runs and thvn rested while the visitors plugge.l alonj;, tied the score and went five to the good in the first half of the eighth. The same v.as won by the sucesslul batting of the Hookers at a time when all forces had to rally ar.d each man do his Lest to land a victory. Only one error was charged to Indianapolis and that was piven to Heydon for muffing1 a thrown ball in the cißhth, whica permitted a runner to score. Aside from that error the holding was fat. Kuhns made a remarkable catch in left, while Fox and Woodruff did wonderful work in the infield. Rothfus also made a sensational catch in right for Kansas City and theie were several other fast plays recorded by the visitors. Williams pitched good ball for Indianapolis for lour innings, but he received more bumps after that than a phrenologist could read in a month. McDonald twirled goo.l ball after the first inning until the eighth, when the Hoosiers opened uch a nro on him he had to be taken from the After the visitors were retired in the first inning Indianapolis started in with a lead of three tallies, making the fans feel jubilant and the fair spectators, it was ladies" day, declare they were the best mascots in the business. Hogriever started the fun by hitting to right for three bases and scoring a moment later when Fox dumped a single in right. Woodruff went to bat and the entire team filed out on the Held and presented him with a handsome wedding present, lie responded by sacrificing Fox to second. Kihm drew a free ticket, but O'Brien forced him at second. Coulter singled, scoring Fox and sending O'Rrien to third. When Coulter stole second O'JJrien scored. Kuhns was retired. HOW KANSAS CITY SCORED. Kansas City was unable to do anything with Williams until the fifth, when Bevillo led oft with a double. The next two men fouled out and Lcwce's single scored Beville. Fox mado a wonderful stop on Lewee's effort, but could not recover himself in time to throw to first. Gear hit to left for three bases and Lewee scored. Beville's single, a sacrifice and Nance's hit tied the score in the seventh. Then came the eighth that wrecked hopes and later made the crowd joyful. Thiel singled and reached second on a sacrifice. The next four men hit for singles and Lewee for a double. Gear hit to Woodruit and Heydon dropped the ball thrown by Woodruff and Nance scored. A moment later Lev.ee was caught at the plate on a similar play and the side was retired when Thiel Hew to Coulter. In the last of the eighth Indianapolis rallied and won out as already described.

playing rood ball, but the Ho osiers hope to complete their work of revenge by winning both games.

Ilaelnll otci. Gear and Gibson should be easy picking this afternoon. Hogriever, Fox. Woodruff and Coulter led the stick work yesterday. Williams pitched good ball until he got himself in a hole and then he was found safely. Jack Grim has been appointed a regular umpire. Haskell, who was to officiate here, has been sent to Louisville and Grim will umpire the games in Indianapolis. Woodruff was presented with a set of solid silver of fifty pieces, handsomely put up in a rosewood case on which was engraved. "To Mr. and Mrs. Orvllle Woodruff, lrom the players of the Indianapolis Baseball Club." Woodruff Is one of the most popular players that ever donned a uniform and the crowd cheered him yesterday when he received his handsome gift. Th players and fans wish him one long, continuous honeymoon. Those who left the park after Kansas City scored five in the eighth and did not stay to see the last half, missed the most exciting finish of the season. A game is never lost until the last man is out, and the Hoosiers have demonstrated several times this season that they are good finishers. The crowd was very enthusiastic during the last of the eighth, and more rooting was done in that half inning than in a dozen ordinary games. DOHERTY BROTHERS WON AM KIl I CAN PLAY KItS LOST THE LAW.X TEX.MS CHAMPIONSHIP. "Ward and Davis Defeated In the Donblc Matches Results of the Golf Contests. NEW YORK. Aug. 8. The famous Doherty brothers, former tennis champions in doubles of all England, defeated Holcombe Ward and Dwight F. Davis to-day in the doubles match on the courts of the Crescent Athletic Club, Bay Bldge, before 7,000 spectators. The American team of national title holders, by virtue of this defeat, lose their holding from the national championship, which they won two years ago at Longwood, Mass., by defeating the Britons In the first series, for the international challenge trophy. It was not generally expected that the Americans would win this match and the prediction was fully realized in four sets. The first went to Ward and Davis at 6-3, but the second, third and fourth were scored by the Dohertys at 10-S, C-3, 6-4. Capt. W. H. Collins, manager of the English team, said that in his estimation the best men had won throughout the series, and while he was sorry they had failed to lift the challenge cup this year, the Britishers were by no means discouraged, and would surely make another trial. Whether or not it would be next year it was impossible for him to say. The English Lawn Tennis Association had sent over the three besc men in their ranks. H. L. Doherty, champion of all England in the singles, It. F. Doherty and Dr. Joshua Pirn, both former holders of that title and also at doubles.

I., Aug. 8. The match-play rounds played to-day in the annual tournament of the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club have narrowed the contest down so that former Champion W. J. Travis and U. A. Murdock, of Shinnecock, meet to-morrow in the finals at thlrty-slx holes for first honors. In the morning matches Travis made the course in seventy-nine and had no great difficulty in disposing of George T. Brokaw, of Princeton. Daniel Chauncey, of Dyker Meadow, had T. G.. Thomas, jr., of Shinnecock, beaten at the fourteenth hole. The match between C. T. Richardson, of Shinnecock Hills, and S. I'. Nash, of Columbia, was stubbornly fought hole by hole, and the victory only went to Richardson at the nineteenth. Allan Kennedy, the New Jersey State champion, and IT. A. Murdock also had a close struggle. Murdock led his opponent almost from the start, and was at times as much as three up. Kennedy pulled up during the last holes and by running down a fortyfoot put on the home green made the score all even. The nineteenth was halved, but Kennedy got into trouble at the twentieth, losing it and the match. Murdock had another close match In the afternoon when he met Chauncey. The latter was three down at the turn, but braced and made the score all even at the sixteenth. Then Murdock took the next two holes and the match. Travis beat Richardson this afternoon by two up and one to play. The match was evenly contested and was followed by a considerable gallery. The semi-finals for second, third and fourth prizes were also played this afternoon. Cards for the afternoon plays for the first cup were: Travis Richardson ...

It Holds that Its Authority Is Absolute and Not Shared by the Treasury Department. NEW YORK. Aug. 8. The board of classification of the United States general appraisers to-day rendered a decision of great importance to all classes of importers. It relates to the Jurisdiction of the board. It is held that the Jurisdiction and authority of the board, as laid down under the law, is absolute and is not shared by the Treasury Department. For some time past, it is said, there has been a growing practice on the part of the Treasury Department to withdraw protests that had come before the board, presumably to correct errors, and then never bring the cases before the board again. Instead of that the department would simply announce a ruling which would cover the case in question. The board of classification now holds. In effect, that such action really amount to an attempt on the part of the department to exercise judicial functions concurrently with the board, and that It is an usurpation of Judicial functions wholly without warrant In the law. The great importance of such a decision will appear from the fact that the board of United States general appraisers U a permanent body. Its decisions are subject to review by the government courts, but, the board now holds, matters which come under its Jurisdiction cannot be decided by the Treasury Department. This cae, llkj all others of the Board of Classification, may be taken to the Federal Courts an.i ultimately to the Supreme Court of tha United States. The decision was rendered in the matter of two protests filed by J. S. Johnson Co. against the decision of the collector of customs at New York as to the rate and amount of duties chargeable on certain merchandise imported on the Antllia and entered respectively June 13 and May 15, 1301. The opinion relates that the protests were transmitted to the board under Section 14 of the customs administrativ act of June IA, 1890. The collector requested the return of th4 protests and the related papers to hii orlice. This the board denies in a long decision, which concludes as follows: "Our conclusion is that the application of tha collector is without merit and is unau thorized and must be denied. It is so ordered. The protests will be docketed lof hearing by the board, of wnich the partus will have due notice." No Difference f Opinion. WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Referring to th decision of the Classification Board of th Board of General Appraisers at New York treasury ofiicials said to-day that them never had been any difference of opinion between the board and the Treasury Department as to the former's Jurisdiction. The board's decisions on questions of classification may be reviewed on appeal by the courts, but on questions of valuation the board has absolute Jurisdiction. lr neither caso does an appeal lie to the Treasury Department. This ruling has been In force for several years. In cae of undervaluation the Treasury Department has no recourse, except to remove members ot the board who are responsible for such undervaluations.
