ly to the improved length and strength of his ground shots, for although his vol- leys were constantly tortur. ing his opponent, his net at- tack could only thrive when Sulter was pressed to go for a difficult clearing shot by the depth and placing of the Englishman's ground stroke.
CHIVALRY OF HUGHES AGAINST SUTTER.
Hughes Travels 4 or 5 Miles in 37 Gadres.
Hughes, after his victory over Sutter, one of the strongest Americans, on Court 1, met with an ovation. At one point he was struggling for a vital game when a drive of Sutter's was given out, although it kicked up chalk from the line. Hughes promptly serv ed a double fault "amid apprecia- tive cheers..
How far does a player run dur- ing a match? A close check of Hughes during his 37-game match yesterday showed that he covered between four and five miles. Mme. Henrotin ran further than Mrs. Moody in their single by a ratio of about 3 to 2.

HEADLEY AND LANCASHIRE. Further developments can be ex- pected shortly regarding the question of George Headley, the famous West Indies bataman, taking a permanent place in English cricket next season.
Two other clubs in addition ta Haslingden, the Lancashire League side, were represented at. Algbarth when Headley played against Lan- cashire.
Headley has refused one offer from Haslingden, but he want to play in England, and there is reason to believe he will be with a League club next segnon.
