CHEVY CHASE WON,
Washingtons Defeated in Golf Match
for Evening Star Cup.

The attendance at the Washington Golf
Club links Saturday afternoon was greatly
interferred with on account Of the disagree
able wind which prevailed, and the match
game for the Star cup between the teams
Of the Washington club and Chevy Chase
club was witnessed by fair crowd of devo-
tees of the game. The visitors from Chevy
Chase were victorious, winning by twenty
six holes.
The Washington club was represented by
Messrs. Samuel Dalzell E. NJ Talcott, Hen
ry Morris. Blair Lee. J. A. Taylor. w. w.
Finley, E. F. Riggs and Col Henry May
while the Chevy Chase team consisted of
Messrs. F.. O. Horstmann, w. NJ. Gray, o.
McCammon, M. Thompson, A L. Seligman.
A. Parker. A. G. McClntock and G. Ayr
ault. The matches resulted as follows:
Mr.. Horstmann defeated Mr.. Dalzell, / up.
MIR. Gray defeated Mr.. Talcott. 5 up.
Mr.. McCammon defeated Mr.. Morris, 3
up.
Mr.. Thompson defeated Mr.. Lee, 6 ND.
Mr.. Seligman defeated Mr.. Taylor, 4 up.
Mr.. McClintock defeated Mr.. Riggs. 8 up.
MT. Parker defeated Mr.. Finley, 3 up.
Col. May defeated Mr.. Ayrault, 1 up.
The best score was made by Mr.. Horst
mann. who covered the eighteen holes in SO.
The average score was about 80. Mr.. Dali
zell who played against Mr.. Horstmann,
was beaten by only one hole. WHICH was
considered as very good performance,
since Mr.. Horstmann is regarded as one of
the best golfers in the amateur ranks Of
the city
This was the first match of the season
for the Washington club and the second for
Chevy Chase The exceedingly strong wind
made par golf nearly impossible and ac-
counted for the poor showing made by all
the players. The long drives were dsas-
trous inasmuch as the wind detected the
ball from its intended course and made
1t very difficult to calculate the distances
properly. The players expressed them
selves as very much pleased with the con-
dttion of the course and had the weather
been more favorable it is probable some
excellent scores would have resulted.

American and National Bodies Battle
for the Players.


The Pennsylvania supreme courts de-
cision has opened up base ball war that
many people thought had been settled. and
just as the public had commenced to
breathe easier over the patching up of the
National League difficulties, the higher
court steps in and opens up breach that
promises to develop into the most disastrous
base ball war in the. history of the game.
Both leagues have opened up old wounds
and have declared they will fight the ques-
ton at issue to tho bitter end, and what the
ultimate result will eis hard to tell. One
thing Is certain, that while the public at
large is a patients SET 1T will soon become
urea OF the constant chickering's and turn
It's attention to other fields OF sport.
The Lajeie case should be decided today
and the outcome ofFthe base ball fight will
De watched with unusual interest all over
the country. From the present outlook
Colonel John ]. Rogers seems to hold the
whip hand. and asks. the court to make the
injunction against Lajoie permanent one,
and will also apply for preliminary injunc-
lions against Fraser and Bernhard.
Inc American League officials not only
oppose the notion. but Will, through their
attorneys. argue for atdissolving of the in
Junction proceedings. Just what argument
WIN be presented or upon what lines they
from the number and class Of witnesses
tnat nave been subpoenaed some new and
startling features are apt to be brought out
should Colonel Rogers win, which would
mean the loss OF L6iioie to the Athletics.
the American League team would lose a
most valuable player, and other suits of
similar character would no doubt be
brought in other cities. which would in
crease. the legal tangle and do the national
game vast amount of harm.

PENNSY'S BIG MEET.
Track Athletes Show Fine Form on
Franklin Field.

The worlds one and two-mile relay rec
ords were broken, the intercollegiate pole
vault figures were raised and the worlds
figures for 100 wards were euualed on
Franklin Field, Philadelphia, Saturday
afternoon in the carnival of relay races and
field sports. The quality of the sport was
the finest ever seen at the annual relay
meet of the University of Pennsylvania.
and more than 5000 persons witnessed the
contests.
Harvard won the one-mile relay cham
pionShip in the new figure of 81 2-5 Penn
sylvania captured the two-mile champion
ship and clipped one-fifth of a second from
the worlds record of s %. and Yale took
the four-mile relay championship in slow
time In the latter race Wisconsin pushed
Yale hard. but the New Haven runners were
equal to the occasion. and held the western
men safe. All the races were well con-
tested.
The prettiest running In the champion
ships was shown by Smith, colored, of
Pennsylvania. and Boynton of Harvard, in
the first half mile of the two mile race
They kept well together until the stretch
was reached. when Smith drew ahead and
won by about foot.
The lOO-yard race was run in two heats
and final. and in each of his heats Duffy
OF Georgetown eQualed his worlds figures
of 8 As seconds. The wind blew directly
across the course and interfered slightly
with the sprinters.
The work of Gray OF Pennsylvania and
Magee of Chicago in the pole vault elected
considerable applause. Both cleared the
bar at IL feet inches, breaking the inter-
collegiate figures of IL feet 41a inches In
the tump-off GraY cleared IL feet inches,
but Magee failed.
j. A. Nelson Of the Columbian University
carried off the shot-putting contest, cover
ing space of AZ feet 2 inches. Mr. Nelson
had not been feeling very well prior to
taking the trip to Philadelphia and the
news Of his victory created surprise, but
great glee among the local collegians. F.
G. Beck of Yale was second and ]. r. De-
Witt Of Princeton third.
The best the Central High School runners
could do in the one-mle high school cham
pionship was to finish third, but the win
ners. South Division Of Chicago, had to
break the record to score a victory. Brook
Ign high school was second. The time was
3.35, breaking the record Of 3.41 2-5 made
by the Centrals in 1897.
In the one-miie college relay race the Gal
laudet lads had to be content with third
place. the Westminster College of New
Wilmington, Pa, finishing first and Johns
Hopkins second.

WOMAN'S WHIST LEAGUE.
Annual Convention Will Be Held in
Boston This Week.

The whist world is looking forward with
great interest to the next annual whist
tournament, to be held In Boston. Mass. at
the Somerset Hotel, under the auspices or
the Womans Whist League Of America, on
April $3.50 and May /.
There is every reason TO believe that there
will be as large a gathering Of strong whist
players on that occasion as at the whist
tournament OF 1901. held at Sherry's In
New York city. and 1t is a foregone con-
cluson that all the clubs OF the United
States will be represented by strong teams,
as it is the one occasion of great impor-
lance during each year.
The contest this year for the various
trophies. in the number OF days. VIII not
be so arduous as at the last convention In
New York, the time being shortened one
day.
The principal prize which is offered and
the one most eagerly sought after Is the
Washington trophy, which decides for the
year the championship Of America, and
which is only allowed to be played for after
all the teams have had two days trial and
in which a certain high standard can be
maintained. Out of all the teams repre-
scented in the New York convention, only
twenty were found TO reach the high requi-
site and allowed to enter the competition
for the Washington trophy.
The Washington trophy is held for the
year 1901 by the Colonial woman's Whist
Club OF Philadelphia, and the first four or
that club which won the prize in May, 1891.
at Sherry's in New York city, are the fol-
lowing ladies: Mrs. William III. Newbold,
Mrs Hood Gilpin. Mrs. Duncan J.. Buzby
and Mrs John c. Bell, captain; they expect
to represent their club as before. 1t is a
remarkable gathering of women who are
well known in their respective localities
throughout the country.

Georgetown Smothered Columbian.

Saturdays game on the Georgetown field
between the blue and gray representatives
and the Columbian University lads resulted
in landslide for the former. the score be-
ing 20 to 0 in their favor. The strength OF
Georgetown this season is something re-
marhable. and that Columbian would be de-
feated was a foregone conclusion. but the
friends of the latter thought they would
at least make good showing. But the con-
trary was the case, Georgetown putting up
a perfect game, while Columbian had nine
errors and secured but seven widely scatter
ed hits off Fay. Pitcher Runkle has a
pretty good reputation as twirler, but he
had nothing Saturday that was not to the
liking of the Georgetown lads, not one on
the team but who got one or more hits.
Shortstop Moran had his batting eye with
him and hammered out a triple, a double
and two singles The fielding of the blue
and gray infield was something good to look
at. Bowling. Dorman. Morgan and Moran
knocking down thirtytwo chances without
a msplay.

YALE WON AT GOLF.
Defeated Garden City, Headed by
Champion Walter Travis.

Yale's golf strength was well tested Sat
urday. when representative from Old Eli
visited the Garden City, L. L.. links, and in
a ten-a aside match proved victorious by 16
holes to 6.
The home combination was headed by
Walter ]. Travis, who played against
Charles Hitchcock, jr. A strong wind from
the southeast prevented anything like rec
ord figures; In fact, this is shown by Mr.
Travis requiring Sc for the round. while
his opponent took 80 to complete the course.
On the outward journey the Yale captain
was up going to the seventh hole and 1
up at the turn. The homeward journey.
however. was a disastrous one for the
leader. and after the amateur champion
mad squared matters at the tenth hole he
gradually forged ahead and eventually fin
ished 3 up.
The only other members of the home ag
gregation to score were A. w Norris and
H. p. Taylor. The veterans c. B. Macdon-

Dark horses showed up prominently at
the cycle races held at the Vailsburg. n. j.,

bunch on the backstretch and went iap
