Stall i ings and Johnson are to meet in Chicago [this morning and take up the matter, and itiie American Ijcague president and mem i ber of the nation il commission is to ask ] that Herrmann, as chairman of tlie com mission. reopen the case. There is no reason why the St. Louis Pittsburg deal shouldn't be beneficial to both teams. The Pittsburg team gets a third baseman who rounds out its in field to greater smoothness, adding a touch of value for a team making n pen nant fight. The St. Louis <-lub sets what ' it much needed, an additional infielder land also a couple of players likely to be of value in the reconstruction of the team. Managers don't make .l^als to "set the better" of somebody, but to strength en their own teams. I Detroit and Boston Gain on Athletics. The Athletics, Detroit and Boston teams will begin another week's campaign in the race for the Amer ican league championship pennant closely bundled and with ea?*h of the three teams being in a position to be credited with a good chance of winning the tlag. As a result of the sanies played yesterday, Detroit and Boston sained on the Athletics, who remained idle. The Athletics will close their scries with Cleveland today. Tomorrow begins the real tight for first place between the two strong est contenders for the champion ship, the Athletics opening a three day series of games with the cham pions at Detroit. Connie Mack has reserved Krau.se and Plank, his two star left-handers, for this series. These two pit< hers have been stumbling blocks to Ty Cobb and the other sluggers who have been keeping the Tigers near the top of the list, and in saving them for the Detroit series Mack is figuring on capturing at least two out of the three games, which will keep the Athletics In first place. Detroit gained three points on the Athletics by beating Washington j yesterday, while Boston gained four I by its victory over St. Louis. While the Athletics and Detroit 1 are battling, Boston will be playins j Chicago, and this will give the Red i Sox an opportunity ot gaining on i the leaders, 110 matter which team wins the Athletk s-Detroit series, j The White Son, however, have been putting up a fast game lately, and may slop the rush of the Boston team. It will be an important week for the three leading teams in the race, and the result may play a promi nent. part in deciding the winner of the great battle for supremacy. The standing of the three teams follows: Won. Lost. Pet. Athletics To 4'_' .??) Detroit <?? 4^1 .'!1H Boston IS* 4<? McGUIRE TAKES HOLD OF CLEVELAND NAPS i CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 2:.? James MclJuire. the new manager, took active charge of the Cleveland American ball team today. At League Park there was an early conference with the team mem bers. McCJuire gave the men a short snappy talk and tiien they reviewed the signal code, which was followed by an hour or two of fast practice work. While the Cleveland team lias prac tically no pennant chances, yet McCJuire said he would do his best to give this city a winning club. He is especially anxious to start his new duties by gar nering a victory from Philadelphia today, which is that club's last appearance in Cleveland this season. The visitors have taken three games from Cleveland, and are keen for the fourth, as Connie Mack has an ambition still to have his team in first place when he invades Detroit j tomorrow. One of McGuire's most zealous players is Napoleon I^ajoie. whom he succeeded as manager. Already Lajoie gives evi dence of the responsibilities that have been lifted from his shoulders by mas 1 terful work on the diamond. TENNIS PLAYERS CRIPPLED. Clothier, Lamed and Behr in Poor Form for Championship. < NEWPORT, R. I., August iSS.-Tlie real ; tests of lawn tennis skill are aliout to en gage the leaders in th~ national cham i pionsliip. As the draw now stands, with the experts entering upon the final, the lower half contains the real problem of hard matches. Frederick <*. Colston, the , Mar\land state champion, m Re-hard 11. Palmer. New Jersey state holder, to day. and Frederick Ionian, metropoli tan champion, is destined to face Gustavo , F. Tout-bard. With both t'lethie: and Behr limping j cripples, it max be possible for l'ell i<> { dispose of Purdy. Oth-rwise the im pression prevails that another meeting of the Pacific coast cracks will he the fea ture filial. Then, with William A. Lar ned in poor form mid suffering from an injured knee, the challenge match all de p?nds on whether or not his long experi ence as a general of the courts will carry him above such a fast player and hard hitter as McLaughlin, for on all sides McLaughlin, the youth of nineteen years, appears as the logical winner of the tour- | iianient, barring upsets. One thing is c. r tain as to the challenge match, and that is to keep his title Larnsd must win in three straight se's, for he is not in eon- j dition to toot the ten miles of a five-Set j grueling contest.

About tJOO patients have been treat ed also in the Kisiba and Hugabu dis tricts. and I'rof. Kleino believes that 1 ? lias had every native through his hands who has shown signs of being infected The natives are forbidden to seek worlc in L'gindiu where the sleeping sicknes-s prevails, and in this way. combined with careful medical Control and tlw* 1 removal of the undergrowth, it is hoped that 110 fresh cases will occur. of these ?MN> cases only thirty were women, the wives of men who had been in Uganda seeking work Disease at Standstill. While the medical officers have thus practically brought the disease to a stand-* still in the districts around ihe German portion of Lake Victoria, various circum stances combine to prevent the attain ment of a similar result in the districts bordering Lake Tanganyika. The natives are shy of Kiiropeans. and are reluctant to place themselves in the hands of the German medical men; the population is more dense, and it is impossible to clear away the undergrowth from the banks of so many small rivers (hat empty into the lake. The consequence is that in spite of the untiring seal of the German doctors the sleeping sickness had spread in sev eral directions during the past year. On the otiier hand, the German districts around Lake Nyassa seem to be free from danger, as the Klossina paipalls is riot indigenous there. Several of the Eu ropeans engaged in combating the sleep ing sickness have caught the disease, but in all cases the attacks have been rela tively mild. This is ascribed to the cir cumstance that proper measures ar?? i adopted immediately the symptoms aro ! observed. j The report conclude.-; "I'rof. Klein* and his assistants have made a most im portant scientific discovery. The well known Knglisli savant. L?r.

The process is thus similar to that undergone b.s malaria parasites la the bodies of gnats." Origin of "Thames."* 1 riv.r.1 tile I-on?ieu ?"hroniil".
