New York, June 22.-Walter J. Travis, who
arrived from Liverpool yesterday declared last
night that he did not expect to win the golf
championship when he went to England.
'.My game was bad, he said, 'half a stroke
less than normal 1t seemed as if everything
was wrong. Afterward improved, and at the

men, who estimated the game largely by the
matches played when I was last They
play better golf the other side than we do
here. They have no less than twenty scratch

than we and their courses are more narrow and
more replete with hazards than ours. Our
courses are too easy, and it is useless to hope
for great players being developed under these
