THE "0PEN" TO LONG LIST OF WINS

Short Hills, N. j., June 18.-For the

duous test of Y holes medal play,

Montclair, N. j., won the title with q
score Of 297 strokes.
Summit Of Career
Travers has won four national anna
teur and five metropolitan as we'll as
several other important golf cham
pionships, but his hearts desire was
gratified when he added the open to
his long list Of victories.
Tho Competition
There was no f1uke or flaw in the
quality of golf which the winner dis
played during the week. He won his
honors cleverly from a field Of 140 Of
the best professional and leading anna
teur golfers in this country. The COM

SAYS REGISTRY
FOR SHIPS UNDER
ANN FLAG WAS
WELL INTENDED

New York, June 1S.-R. g. Wagner.
president Of the American Transact
lantic Co., whose application FOR
American registry for number of So
called Danish freight steamships has
been refused by Eugene T. Chamber
lain, United States commissioner OF
navigation, said in statement made
public today that his request had been
made in good faith and that all the
stockholders of the company are
Americans. He explained his efforts to
obtain American registry for the YES
sells by saying that while in Denmark
last January he saw the opportunity
to obtain an interest in the owner
ship Of several vessels and was in
formed by the American consul that
there would be no difficulty in trans
ferring them to American registry.
Returning to the United States, he
incorporated the American Trans-At-
lantic Co. Mr.. Wagner said he laid all
the facts before the navigation COM
missioner at Washington, assured the
commissioner that all the vessels al
ways had been under neutral flags,
and gave him a guarantee that the
ships would not be used in any way
to embarrass the United States gov

in the Galician region the Russians are
meeting with repulses.
In the West
On the western line seemingly a breath
ing spell has followed the heavy COM
bats of preceding days, except in Alsace,
where the French declare they are con-
tinuing to advance in the region of Met
zeral and along both banks of the Fecht
river. In this region Paris asserts that
the French troops are holding under
their fire the German line of comrnuni-
cations between Metzeral and Munster.
Dispatches from the Italian front indi-
cate that the Austrans along all their
fronts have thrown their crack regiments
to take the place of customs guards and
soldiers of the Landsturm. On the Ty-
rol front the Austrians in the vicinity of
Mort and Rovereto have taken the Of
fensive against the Italians and a battle
in that region is in progress. Vienna re-
ports that heavy losses were inflicted on
the Italians near PLAYA when Delmatian
troops repulsed an attack. 1t is added
that the Italian offensives on the Isen-
zow front have met with little success.
The Austrans have bombarded with
torpedo boat destroyers the Italian towns
OF Pesaro and Rimini, and also a sector
of the coast railroad near Fano and
Pesaro, on the Adriatic sea- Rome re-
ports that three civilians were slightly
injured at Rimini. but that the material
damage nowhere was important.
Another British steamer, the Ailsa.
has been sent to the bottom by German
submarine off the southeast coast of
Scotland.

final stage Of the contest, as he finish

fourth and fifth cash prizes with the

Travers' Play
Travers played steadily all through
the two days test and while he made
mistakes, most Of them were quick
ly rectified by clever recoveries. In
the final round today Travers knew
that he had hard task to beat the
total Of 29S made by the Boston bred
professional Tom Mcnamara. He had
taken 80 strokes going out and was
forced to equal par or 81, for the last
nine holes in order to win by a single
stroke.
Tho Championship
On the tenth tee he lost a stroke by
slicing out on bounds. Then he sent
his next into the rough, but fine re-
covery put him on the green in three
and he holed out in par 4. At the
eleventh green he had to sink a TWEEN
ty-foot putt for the necessary and
he did it. After this Travers went

Cologne. June IS, Via London, 1902
p. M.-The Cologne Gazette has pub
lished a despatch from Berlin concern
ing the outcome Of the recent general
elections in Greece, in which doubt is
expressed as to whether M. Zenizelos
would be unconditionally in favor Of
armed Intervention by Greece on the
side Of the allies, even in case King
Constantine should again entrust him
with the conduct of affairs.
It is rather to be assumed, the Ber-
lin despatch goes on to say, that NJ.
Venizelos is following the develop
ments in the Dardanelles very close
ly; that he has noticed England's ad-
mission that progress there is posi-
BILE only with great sacrifices. and that
the latest attempts to induce Bulgaria
and Rumania to cooperate with the
allies have failed. Conditions in this
quarter Of the world have changed

June I've were undecided whether to
attempt to turn the Germans, who had
broken through our front near Stry, or
to fall back on the Dniester river. The
general situation in Galicia finally caus-
ed US to adopt the latter course The
night of June the enemy demonstrated
against our bridgeheads in the direction
of Mikalajow, losing several thousand
men.
1.-The principal attack was delivered by
the army under General Won Bothmer at
a point more to the east. The attack
against Zidaczow was repulsed, but on
the night of June General Won Bothmer
crossed the river Dniester near Juravno
and on June occupied the left bank of
the river for a distance of Is miles.
June and June 9 the bulk of the
German forces were decisively defeated
and thrown back across the Dniester.
Nevertheless on June 10 the German COM
mander, beginning a general offensive,
delivered a new attack with what re-
manned Of his regiments. The principal
German force moved aIong the right
bank of the river Stry and attacked our
bridgehead near Zidaczow.
Toward June Is the time came for an
other reverse of the enemy. At Berezni-
ca and Kruleyska alone we killed with
the bayonet and buried 1000 Germans
who had abused the white flag. Between
May % and June Is we captured in this
sector 10000 prisoners, including $50 Off
GERS; over 100 machine guns and two
dozen cannon. The total losses of the
enemy on a front of IS miles were be-
tween 10000 and 10000 men.
"Dense additional columns descended
the slopes of the Carpathian mountains
daily and reinforced the enemy Many
supplementary attachments, originally
destined for eastern Prussia. met their
final fate in the valley of the Stry.
I'VE have noted serious symptoms of
Generalization which are beginning to
show themselves in the ranks of the en-
envy in the vicinity of Mikolajow.''

Bryan Suggests Mediation as the Way
Out Of War and Proposes Extension
OF His Commission Peace Treaty Plan
Says, in Concluding Sec ton of His Statement
That Warning Nations May Thus Be Brought
into Conference

Mr.. Bryan continues: when can
peace be restored? Any time now if the
participants are really weary of this war
and ready for 1t to end. If any nation is
not ready, let it's ruler state in clear.
precise and definite terms the conditions
upon which it is willing to agree to
peace; then If an agreement Is not
reached, blame for continuance Of the
war will be upon those who make I'M
usual demands"
In proposing mediation the former sec
rotary points out that The Hague conven-
ton expressly declares an offer Of media
ton shall not be considered an unfriend-
ly act, and adds:
THE duty of offering mediation may
seem to rest primarily upon the United
States, the largest Of the neutral nations
and the one most intimately bound by tie
of blood to all the belligerents. The
United States did make an offer imme-
diately after the war began. but why
not again and again until our offer OF
some other is accepted, Our action OF
failure to act need not deter any other
neutral from acting. This is not a time
to stand on ceremony; if any other coun-
try, for any REASONING matter what the
reason may be--is in better position
than we to tender it's good offices, il
should not delay a moment
To assure permanent peace, Mr.. Bryan
urges that his plan of investigation trea.
ties be adopted by the warning nations.
"A treaty such as those which now pro-
tect the peace of the United States" he
said, would give years time for in
vestigation and report, and who doubts
that a years time would be sufficient tc
reach an amicable solution of almost
every difficulty? Does anyone suppose
that the present war would have been
begun if years time had been taken
to investigate the dispute between Aus
tria and Servia?"
