HILTON TALKS OF TRAvERs.
British Golfer Comments on Tour
ney at Baltusrol.

NEW YORK, July Harold H. Hill
ton. in the British Golf1ng Magazine,
of which he is the editor. devotes sew
eral paragraphs in the issue which has
just reached this country, to the vic
tory of Jerome D. Travers in the ma
tional open championship at Baltusrol.
He begins as follows:
"Mr. Jerome D. Travers, admittedly
the finest match player that the states
has ever produced, has now set the seal
on his fame by winning the biggest
scoring event of the year. And his sue
cess would appear to be thoroughly de-
served. as he was well up in the quail
fying rounds-only four strokes behind
the leader-and was always in the
front of the picture in the champion
ship itself And it may incidentally be
mentioned that his aggregate for the
six rounds-two qualifying and four
championship-was better than any
other player in the field"
After according the full measure of
praise to the new open champion, Hilton
takes up the Hypothetical case of what
would have happened If Vardon, Ray
and Duncan had played at Baltusrol
and comes to the conclusion that one of
the three would have beaten Travers by
one stroke. Hilton bases his conclu-
sion upon what he saw of the Baltusrol
course when he played there for one
day in 1911, and 1t is not likely that
his decision will be received with a
great deal of NEvor by golfers ON this
side Of the Atlantic,

Merrill and Warner Defeat Ham and

The finals of the lower bracket in
the doubles of the tennis tournament
being run by the Washington Railway
and Electric Power Company were
played yesterday, and resulted in a
hard-earned victory for NJ. NJ. Merrill
and A. P. Warner over William s. Ham
and William L. Clarke by the score
of SO, 81 and 6-2.
Glazebrook and King recently won
the finals of the upper half of the
bracket, and are carded to meet Mer-
rill and Warner this afternoon. The
pairs have given evidence of putting
up stubborn contests. and this battle
for the title in the doubles should be
interesting and exciting all the way.
Another tournament Is talked of. and
it is to be a handicap affair. If all
the details can be completed II will
probably be started next week with a

BOSTON, July THAT old timely hit
which with few exceptions has always
been conspicuous by reason Of its alb
sence in tho Nationals games is still
among the missing these days The
present slump might never have been
launched had some ono member OF the
team been able to get a safe blow at
ono Of several times during any one OF
the five defeats which now have been
rolled up. But though the Griffmen
seem able to bring about threatening
situations. that essential feature, tho
been presented.
In the four games here. for instance
two runs have been scored. ana ootn
of these came yesterday. Just "nat
sort of pitching it would require 10
make that amount of scoring orlns
success Is hard to figure. Opportun-
ties have been numerous. II any good,
hitting team had as many 1t woulo
take an exceptionally long time TO re-
tire 1t. Perhaps the break is to come
today. when Gallia and Engei are
picked to pitch the douole-neaoer IN
the order named. Gallia mas eeeu
there is no reason why he should not
continue to do so. Engel has nad OUT
one chance on the mound: that was In
the opening game here. when he
worked in one inning, and seemed to
have everything necessary TO pltcn
good ball.
HOPPER had to be rushed into the hrst
xame when Boehling hurt his finger, and
he didn't have sufficient time to thofougn-
ly warm his arm, as result OF winch
he was not very effective until after the
second inning, from which time out the
Red Sox failed to score on him Hopper
undoubtedly convinced the ooupelnS
Thomases that he is a pitcher OF more
than ordinary ability, and that he Is sure
to be heard from if he is given chance
to work regularly.
Walter johnson, though he had two
days' rest, did not look impressive at any
stae of the second game. He lacked that
terrific speed which he has been olsplay-
ing of late, and was really hit hard Tor
the reason that he did not have much
with which to fool the batters. Poor
nlayine also helped the Sox to runs IN
the first and third innings.
Had Tommy Connolly been wide
awake on the bases in the final inning
of the second game 1t is not unlikely
that the Nationals would have won out
in this round. Connolly started the IN,
ming with a hit, and Henry was saved
when Janvrin dropped Barry's throw
to force Connolly on Henry's grounder.
Mcbride dropped a Texas Lacquer to
short right, and It was evident that 1t
could not be reached by Hooper. Con-
molly, however, waited between second
and third for the ball to strike the
ground and then. of course, only could
60 as far as third. when he should have

scored, which would have given Nc
Bride a two-base hit and put Henry
on third. Williams pinch hit would
then have gone safe instead of result
felders would have played in and
Barry would not have been able to han
die Williams liner. and the game
would probably have been broken up
there and then. But Connolly's fail
ure to run made tho inning non-pro-
likely proved the winning round.
The new arrangement Of the Ma
tionals' infield is sure in time to be q
success, though just now It is ap-
parent that both Foster and Connolly
still need more experiences. But Foster
Is covering a lot Of ground and Incl
dentally is relieving Mcbride Of some
OF the strenuous duty of covering Sec
ond base. in which Foster looks good,
though he did mum throw yesterday
which gave Speaker q steal in the first
inning of the opening game. Connolly
is doing well at third. He seems able
to take care of lot OF ground and his
throwing Is accurate.
Speaker drove Boehlins out of the
game when he hit him in the right leg
with a line drive in tho opening inning
OF the first game. the ball bounding
into left field. Boehling claimed to have
hurt his finger in trying to grab the
ball, and though Trainer Martin patch
cd it up. he found that he could not
pitch. and Boehling went to the club
house.
Janvr1n is playing havoc with his bat
The local youngster Is not only hitting
like a flend, but he is fielding his posi-
ton like a star. and is the recipient of
much applause, though 1t is only since
the last few days that local fans would
stand for him. He was publicly roast
ed, and there was danger Of him losing
his nerve. But he has stuck to his job
like a game fellow, and now the crowds
comes up on the field until the game
Is over.
There were 1871 paid admissions at
yesterdays double-header, and a sim
liar crowd is expected today, SO that
cidedly profitable. and would have been
much greater had the day been bright
Monday. But the present trip should
prove good one from a financial
standpoint The next stop Is Chicago
where the Sox are fighting for the lead
and big crowds are sure to attend the
games there. There is also going to
be big attendance at Detroit, but, of
course. not much at either St Louis or
Cleveland.
It is possible that the Nationals will
get train at 5:56 o'clock this after
noon for Chicago. The double header
is to be hustled through in time to
make this possible. If for some reason
or other this train cannot be made, the
team will have to leave at 11:15 at
night and will not arrive until Friday
morning, while the earlier train will
get them into Chicago Thursday.
