MEXlCO'S Big SHOW
DOESN'T siEET WITH GREAT EN.
CouRAGEMENT.
The Federal Government Not Giving
Financial Aid to the Enter
prisc-RaiIwny Project.

Mexico City, Jan. 2O.-Neither the
citizens nor the Federal government
seem inclined to give financial assist
ance to the Mexican International cx-
position and many merchants who are
able to contribute lioerally to the pro-
ject regard 1t with Indifference. and
some with semi-hostllity. fearing that
1t Will be the means of Introducing
large quantities Of goods which Will be
sold at low process.
The Mexican Herald, reviewing the
present situation, says there seems to
be q great amount of apathy regard
ing the enterprise, and our people are
not coming forward in support OF the
exposition. This lack OF encourage
ment, accompanied by the lack of sup
port from the national government in
IL financial way, throws II back into
the category of a purely private un-
dertaking and renders the chances Of
SUCCESS problcnaticaL
The cooperation of the states OF
Central America has been sought and
mas been given in the belief that
Mexico in its national capacity was
behind the undertaking. II the expo
sition Is to 30 forward, 1t should be
lifted out OF the category of ordinary
business ventures.

Preparing for the Tournament of tn 9.
Southern Association.
The affairs of the Southern Lawn Ten
MS Association are booming up, and at a
recent meeting held at the office of Mr..
John c. Davidson, on F street, the pros
poets for the coming year were talked over
This was the tenth annual meeting of the
association, and 1t was attended by num-
Der Of tennis players of some note from
the southern states. The meeting was of
more particular interest from the fact that
officers were elected for the ensuing year,
those selected being Mr.. H. S. Post Of Bal
timore, president; Mr.. John c. Davidson,
vice president, and Mr.. w. P. Metcalf Sec
retary-treasurer. An executive COMMITTEES,
consisting of the above, and Messrs Yates
Pennington and John H1nckley Of Balti-
more, Mr.. Harry Cover Of Georgetown
University, and Mr.. H. H. Westcott was
appointed.
Georgetown University made application
for membership and was elected unani-
mously, the varsity being represented by
Mr.. Robert Dick Douglas, the manager of
athletics, and several others. The Balti-
more Cricket Club and the Gainesville
Country Club were also represented. The
Southern Lawn Tennis Association was
originally formed for all states south of
the Mason and Dixon line to meet In an
nual competition for the championship of
the territory. Since Joining the National
Lawn Tennis Association change has
been made. and while the membership is
limited to clubs In the southern states the
championship series is open to any out

side PLAYER. This was done in order to
make the anaua, tournament more inter
esting and mora largely attended by good
tennis players.
Last year the annual championship was
held on the grounds Il the CatonSville
Country Club, the championship being won
by Mr.. Fl. S. Post, now president of the
association. This year The tournament will
be held in Washington on the grounds of
the Bachelor Club, during the week of
May 10. The last time the annual cham
pionship series was held in this city was
in 1894, when w. Gordon Parker of New
York won the championship. The cham
pionship series this year promises to be
unusually Interesting on account of the
large number of outside players who viii
compete, a number of Philadelphia and
over to participate.
One of the leading men for the cham
pionship this year will be Mr.. John c. Da-
wilson, who for the past five years has
held the championship Of the District, and
who last year was defeated for the cham
pionship of the south by Mr.. Post in an
one point difference. Should Mr.. David
son win the championship Of the District
this year he will be entitled to permanent
possession of the magnificent berry bowl,
which is offered by the Bachelors Club,
and which goes to the man winning three
successive championship games. Three
years ago Mr.. Davidson came in possession
of a championship trophy in the same
way The trophy is a Brandenbery
placdue worked in beaten copper and oxi-
died silver, representing a lawn tennis
scene.
The five courts of the Bachelors Club, To-
Gated on the south side of NJ street. be-
tween 18th street and Connecticut avenue
are in a beautiful condition. They have
been carefully attended to and rolled so
nicely that the ground Is as smooth as a
parlor floor. Every evening the courts are
filled with members of the club who are
getting in trim for the coming tourna-
