TRAVIS DEFEATS WATSON.
Fine Match Game on the Golf Links at
Garden City Club.

NEW YORK, July S.-Walter j. Travis,
of the Oakland o.. - Golf Club, and C.
Watson, jr., of the Westbrook club. met in
the amateur golf tournament of the Gar
den City Golf Club links to-day. and Travis
defeated his younger opponent by two up
and one to play.
Last evening five men tied with scores of
1S7 each for the four last places on the
qualification role. This made it necessary
for the five to play off this morning at
medal play, to see which one of them
should drop out, and the unlucky one was
j. G.. Thorp, of Cambridge, Mass.
Sixteen pairs of golfers played thirty-six
holes each to-day, but the chief interest of
the spectators was conferred in the match
between Travis and Watson. Up TO and in
Guiding the sixth hole Watson held his
own. but from that point Travis made
gains which left him three up on the ninth
hole, and when the round was completed
he had his lead increased to five up. Travis
was not as good as usual on the long game
through the green, but he did some re-
markably clever putting. which is consid-
cred his weakest point in golf. During the
afternoon round Watson did much better
work, although a high wind which sprang
up was more in favor of Travis than of his
opponent. Watson brought down the Oak
land mans lead TO one up, but could never
get ahead of him, Travis winning out by
two up and one to place.

The $4,000 or $1,000 European troops who
will soon be at Peking will suffice for pres

~ into a war. A war OF the European pow
ers against China would be one Of the
gravest events of the century, especially
as we do not know whether the union now
reigning between the power would sur
vive several campaigns"
In the Chamber of Deputies to-day NJ.
Sembat, Socialist, asked for explanations
regarding the credits for operations in
China. He took a gloomy view of the out
look, saying he thought troubles might
arise out Of the Quarrels between the pow
ers regarding their respective spheres of
influence. The attitude of France, he
claimed, ought not TO be the covetous atti-
tude of certain powers whose aim was the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of China.
NJ. Delcasse, minister Of foreign affairs,
replied that France had no desire TO make
war on China, but could not shrink from
the duty of protecting her citizens and OBJ
tanning for them the same guarantee as Of
fered TO those who visited France. Continu-
ing, VI. Delcasse said: w nourish no Sc
cret design. Common danger commands a
common aim and common efforts. This ne
cessity is realized by all the powers. l as

nothing to strengthen the sentiment of
human solidarity, which will prevent the
powers from thinking of anything which
might divide them"
