INTERNATIONAL GOLF IS
PLAN OF NEXT SEASON
Australians viii Tour from Coast
to Coast, Playing Many
Match Contests

NEW YORK, June 6.-International
golf of nature hitherto unknown in
this country, unless the visit of the
Oxford Cambridge team in 1903 be eX-
cepted is practically a certainty for
next season. This time the invading
forces will represent Australia, and
they will be headed by DR.. F. G.
Brathwaite, the American vice con-
sui, who will act as manager. In ad-
dition to the golfers, there will be at
least two lawn tennis players in the
party.
The plan thus far mapped out is for
a team to arrive in this country early
next summer and to tour America
from coast to coast, taking part in
team matches and tournaments, but
arranging the schedule so as to take
in both the amateur and open cham
pionships The Australian team as
made up at present consists of eight
golfers and two lawn tennis players,
but it is possible that this number
may be increased
Prominent among the visitors will be
Michael Scott, the amateur champion
of. Australia and open champion of
New South Wales and Victoria. He is
a brother of o. Scott, who has been
runner-up in amateur championships
of Great Britain. Next or the list is
Clyde Pearce, who has been both open
and amateur title holder of Australia.
Then there is Felstead, left-handed
golfer. who recently broke the record
for the course at the Royal Melbourne
club. Last year Felstead won the
open championship tournament of
Australia, beating all the professionals.
Another equally well known golfer
booker for the trip is Duncan, five
times champion of New Zealand, and
runner-up in the Australian amateur
tournament in 1908.
Bruce Pearce, the youthful phenom-
enon of many titles, also enjoys an in
ternational reputation. This 18-year-
old lad, who will be a member of the
team, is champion of Tasmania and
South Australia, and all together he
holds sixteen minor championship
titles.

 News Notes
STRIKE TIES UP WORK
 ON THE STATE CAPITOL.
General Walk-Out Follows Refusal of Stonecutters to Handle Alleged
 "Unfair" Stone.

A general strike of all union work men employed in the construction of the new state capitol was called one day last week, and as a result be tween 100 and 200 men employed on the building walked out The strike was caused by the fact that the union stonecutters refused to handle the stone from Bedford, Ind, which thev claim was quarried by non-union la Dor. Union men employed in other trades affiliated with the stonecut= ters walked out in sympathy.
 Practically all work on the new state capitol was stopped. Only the bricklayers and plasJtrers remained at work, and they cannot work long unless the other men go back to work.
 It is believed that Governor Don aghey and others interested in the completion of the state capitol think tha the strike will be settled within week and that the strikers will re turn to work by the end of that time.
