BY 1000 OR MORE ADDl- TIONAL MEN.
GEN. BELL MAKES REPORT
Reports Received Are Similar Only in That They Show a Fight Occurred and That Pententiary and Other
 Buildings Were Taken.

Washington.-The most detailed accounts yet received of the fighting at Chihuahua City when Villa cele- brated the Mexican Independence day by a successful assault on the Car ranZa garrison, reached the War De- partment from Brig.-Gen. Geo. Bell, commanding the Fl Paso military dis trict. It asserts that Villa personally led the attacking forces; that he took and held numerous and important buildings in the city for several hours; that he was joined by thou sand or more men of the CarranZa garrison and retired, promising to re- turn soon, and taking with him a large quantity of captured arms, ann munition and artillery.
 Gen. Bells dispatch does not show the source of his information and many officials believe his account of the incident was founded on rumors reaching the border as were various stories which have been transmitted by State Department agents. They were inclined to believe for that req son that the full truth of what trans pired is not yet known.
 Reports so far received are similar only in that they show a fight did oc- cur on September 16 and that the Vil- la followers took the penitentiary and some other buildings. They all conflict, as to the part Villa played, not even agreeing that he was present.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. &c.
The qualifying round Of the twenty
second annual amateur golf champion
ship to DO held the week Of SeDtem-
Der over the two courses Of the
Merton Golf Club, will be played over
thirty-si1 separate holes for the first
time in the history Of American golf.
This is made possible by the use of
both tho east and west links Of the
Merton Club. The courses are marked
by a great dissimilarity, both as to
physical features and type Of holes.
The east course Is 6,445 yards in
length and is plenufuly supplied with
hazards, hand made and natural.
While the ground is Of an undulating
character, the soil, largely Of clay
loan makes the run of the ball more
pronounced than on the west course.
Two or three creeks and a quarry
are the natural features that make
some Of the holes on the east course
famous, while a road which bisects
the course at the tenth, eleventh and
twelfth holes adds to the other haz-
ards. The sixteenth, seventeenth and
eighteenth holes are the quarry holes,
the drop into the quarry Of 100 feet
facing the seventeenth tee makes an
excellent mental hazard. This course
is also noted for Its one shot holes
on any Of which careless play means
ruin. This will be the course used
for the match play after the qualify

The west course, which is to be
used only in the qualifying round, ls
a comparatively new one, opened in
1914, and is entirely different from
the older links. 1t Is 6,100 yards in
length and even moro rugged and Sc
cluded than the east course. II is
entirely surrounded by woods with no
roads near. In It's natural features 1t
is far superior to the other, with Its
winding creeks and in some holes,
falrways, guarded by short slopes.
The soil, too, is Of totally different
character from the east course, being
a sandy character which readily be-
comes spOngy and on which under
usual circumstances shots must be
played for what they are worth. 0w-
ing to the continued drought Of the
past few weeks, however, the soil has
become baked and Is practically In
the same condition as the other

they are under normal conditions aud
