ed that whilethe existence of the pres
ent law is no guarantee against fraud,
or that the dishonest debtor will not
endearor TO use its machinery to his
advantage and to the detriment Of the
creditor whenever possible, yet the op-
portunities under the various State as
signment and insolvency laws were so
much greater and the frauds frequently
50 much more fragrant, that the FEEDER
al law has come to be looked upon as
one Of the most bencfcicnt and advan-
tageous to the business world that has
been placed upon our statute books for
many years. That the bankruptcy law
needs some amendment, was cmphaslz
ed by a recent decision OF the Supreme
Court that under the law as it now is,
any partial payment made within four
months prior to the filing Of Il petition
in bankruptcy, constitutes preference,
and that the creditor receiving such
partial payment cannot prove the bal
ance of his claim unless he first surren-
ders the full amount Of such payment
to t he trustees.
Mr.. Z. &. Brandenburg, who is in
charge of bankruptcy matters of the
Department Of Justice, says that in the
amendments recommended to Congress
by that department; this has been alter
cd 80 that when 4 man receives payment
on account innoccntly, he may prove
the balance of his claim, and adds that
he has reason to believe that Congress
will promptly pass the proposed amend
ment, which has been strongly endora-
ed by the National Association of cred.
it men, as necessary to protect innocent
creditors.

PORTS IN GEN ERAL

! The Evening Stars handsome golf cup
will rest In the Chevy Chase club house for
I a year at least, as result Of its team 8
! splendid victory over the Columbias Satur-
| day in the contest for the trophy, the score
being SO up on holes and 1S on points. Sat
urdays match was the final one of the
season for the trophy, and as Chevy Chase
has scored three victories and no defeats
the cup goes to Chevy Chase with clean
score on its first season.
Saturdays game was witnessed by quite
a large gallery, the playing of the best men
being watched with considerable interest.
AS in last Wednesdays match, but two of
the Columbia players came out ahead. DR..
L. l. Harlan and ]. W. Mckinley. The
latter was also one of the victors in We'd
nesday's match.
Chevy Chase's victory aptly illustrates
the advantage of seasoned players over be-
ginners. Columbias team comprises sew
eral unusually brilliant golfers, but they
lack that steadiness which wins out in the
end and which can be developed only by
several years persistent work. A major
ity of the Chevy Chase players have been
driving the little white ball for many years,
and such a thing as nervousness Is not
thought of. The large gallery Saturday
had an important effect on the playing of
several of the Columbia's best men, and
their true game was not developed until
they got to the links far removed from
the eyes of the spectators 1t looks like
simple matter to be criticised on how you
stand or how you handle the driver, but
when the remarks are heard at critical
point of the game 1t requires the nerve of
veteran player to withstand them.
Captain F. o. Horstman suffered the pen
alties of a leader Saturday and his playing
fell off as result. The Columbia boys
were early on the field. and the worry of
getting his men together was taken from
DR.. Harban's mind so that he played with
his old-time vim and accuracy. Mr.. Horst
man, on the other hand, was continually
on the to ascertain the whereabouts of
his men, and, a result, he went into his
match somewhat rufffed-
The playing of the two captains was
watched with considerable interest, and it
appeared as though everybody around the
club house followed MeSsrS. HorStman and
Harlan over the course after their initial
drives. AS in Wednesdays game, the
Chevy Chase captain did the best driving.
but the Columbia leader would catch up
by masterful approaches, and then both
would go to pieces on puts of the easy sort
or make the hole in the most sensational
manner. DR.. Harban'S play Saturday was
steadier than usual on the green, and his
victory over Mr. Horstman can be attrib-
uted to this fact.
A feature of the afternoons play was
the work of Col. Denny the last nine
holes. His approaches and puts were of
the most brilliant order, and as he came
home in 81 strokes, one more than the
record the brilliancy of his work can be
appreciated DR.. Lee Harlan came home
