II mas been suggested that Robert -.
Wrenn. president Of the United States
Lawn Tennis Association had another ob-
ject in going abroad than seeing the final
, matches for the Davis Cup Legislative
, questions on lawn tennis will be dis
cussed and the deed Of gift for the Davis
Cup revised. At the present time there is
no provision made as to whether the
| matches should be played on turf or dirt
courts. 1t seems that the countries are at
odds over THIS question but it should be
an easy one to solve, and TO the complete
satisfaction of all concerned. It is only
necessary 10 insert clause that the de-
Tending nation shall elect whether the
matches be played on turf or dirt.

some sacrifices IN neglecting his busi-
ness for so long a time he felt repaid
by the new interest which seems 10 have

otherwise, and with good reason in some
cases; but, Of course, everything depends
on the point OF view.
The umpiring in both major leagues
could be improved. but so long as UNI

PROCEDURE NOT DECIDED
Democrats May Pass Sundry
Civil Bill at Extra Ses-
sion, However.

Although the democrats have not vet
adopted any plan of procedure for enact
ing into law the sundry civil bill, which
was vetoed yesterday by Mr.. Taft it was
said today by leaders of the House that
there was strong probability the same bill
would be passed by the new Congress in
extra session.
If this course is adopted, it was pointed
out, there would be no need of appointing
the appropriations committee until. the
next regular session. in December 1t is
the desire of the leaders to have no COM
mittees appointed except those absolutely
needed to handle the tariff and such
other measures as they may desire to
put through at the extra session.
Once before. at least. when an apprO-
priation bill was vetoed It was put
through the next session without change.
If this plan is followed out the District
of Columbia items contained in the bill
are assured. Among them is $1O0O0O put
in the bill by the Senate for beginning
construction of the proposed new build
ing for the Columbia Hospital and s1O7 O0o
for enlarginS the National ZoologicaI
Park. which was inserted in the bill by
the House.

GARRISON LEARNING DUTIES
New War Chief Has Long Confer

Mr.. Garrison, the new Secretary of
war. was in close conference with
Secretary Stirnson for several hours
today, and obtained a good general idea
Of the status of all the important ques-
tions affecting the military establish
ment that are likely to demand his con-
sideration in the early weeks of the
new administration.
The new Secretary afterward was the
guest of Secretary Stimson at luncheon
at the Metropolitan Club, the other
guests being Assistant Secretary oliver
and Maj. Gen. Wood. chief of staff.
During the Internal conversation sew
eral military matters requiring i'm
mediate consideration were talked
about.
1t was arranged between the two Of
fcials that the transfer of the office
should take place at o'clock this after
noon, at which time the principal officials
of the department will be presented to
the new Secretary of War.
At the suggestion of the retiring Sec
retary all the heads of the purely mill
tary bureaus Will attend the reception in
full dress Uniform. In greeting the new
head of the department the officials will
improve the opportunity to take official
leave of the outgoing Secretary.
Mr.. Daniels, the new Secretary of the
Navy said today that in case he was
confirmed he would qualify at the Navy
Department at O'Clock this afternoon
and assume his official duties tomorrow
morning. An official of the department
clothed with notalial powers probably
will be asked to administer the oath of
office. Commander Palmer. naval aid to
Secretary Meyer, will remain with the
new Secretary in the same capacity for
the time being, at least.
