Smith and Barnes,
Americans, Lead in
British Golf Tourney

Prestwick, Scotland, June 25.-(AP)
Two Americans, Macdonald Smith
and Jim Barnes, were in the lead for
the British open golf championship
tonight, with half of the 72 hole
struggle behind them. Both set new
records for the famous restick course
today. Barnes bringing it down two
strokes with stirring round of 70
in the morning and Smith reducing
it still further with dazzling 50 in
the afternoon.
Having done 76 in his forenoon
tramp. Smith ended the day with a
total of las. Barnes followed up his
seventy with n, for a total of LAT,
which put him IN second place.
Only a dozen of the British golfers
who set out this morning with the
hope of winning their own champion
ship back from the Americans. who
have held it for three years out of
the last four, were within striking
distance of Smith and Barnes to-
night.
Half dozen strokes, however, sep
arated Smith from even the first of
his British rivals, Arthur Compston
of North Manchester, with an aggre-
gate of ISL. One more stroke down
the line, Tom Fernie, S. Wingate and
w. H. Davies are tied for fourth
place with 152. Those who took 153
for the thirty six holes are J. H. ,Tay-
lor, Abe Mitchell, Ted Ray and
George Murdock Of Troon. George
Duncan finished eleven strokes be-
hind Smith.
Except for the remarkable rounds
made by Smith and Barnes, the days
golf produced mostly a vast amount
Of bad golf. In the first round less
than half the professionals broke 80
and the afternoon scoring was not
even as good.
The links were hard and so fast
that most Of the competitors devoted
a great deal of time to complaining
about their luck. A warm sun beat
down all day and there was sufficient
wind off sea to compel the golfers to
take it into account when making
their shots.
The galleries were immense.
Thousands of those who tramped
from hole to hole stayed close to the
heals of the thre entrants from over
seas, Smith, BarLes and Joe Kirk

China to recognize all treaty obl1ga-

losses of lives, property or business
as a result Of the pleent anti-foreign
agitation, was started today In
Shanghai by the American Associa-
ton of China. -
News that resolutions to that effect
had been adopted by the body failed,
however, to secure any response from
Washington. The only move OF the
JJrited States government during the
day in connection with the Chinese
situation was a step toward assisting
American tobacco growers to resist
the boycott in China against foreign
tobacco.
The present wave of anti-foreign-
nism in China is not directed at Am
ericans as much as at Britishers and
Japanese. dispatches today continued
to show.
Today was without any reports Oh

in connection with the annual dragon

President Tansey declared the fall

Thomas Bell, of Boston. of the Bos-

Bearish traders in the wheat mar

fact that serious disturbances were
also taking place in Morocco and
China. 1t was current comment that
such events had tendency to hinder
the movement of capital and thus We're
to be regarded as a detriment to busi-
ness generally, including grain. Ca
madam dnials of black rust rports, to-
gether with lower quotations from

towards weakening the market here
and so also was cool weather likely
to check rust development this side of
the Canadian boundary.

1.-THE Legislature apparently recog-
nized the constitutional provisions
and did not even purport to determine
whether or not a referendum should
be held upon the bill to abolish the
Direct Primary and return to the old
Convention System.
an the so-called "Direct Primary
petitions there were gross evidences
of fraud. A great number of sigma
lures We're obviously made by the
same hand. Duplicate petitions with
exactly the same names were filed
from certain towns. Manifest irregu-
larities were apparent upon a. very
great proportion of the petitions that
were returned.
"a postal card canvas was accord
ingly made and hundreds of voters
reported back over their own sigma
lures that their names upon the petit
tions were not signed by them. These
reports came in largest numbers In
certain of the larger cities of the
State. Further investigation was ac-
ccrdingly made and resulted in
wholesale reputation Of the petitions
that had been filed.
"In certain cases the signatures OF
the Justice of the Peace taking oatf
to the authenticity of the petition
had been forged. Sworn testimony
was presented tracing these petitions
in their uncompleted condition to the
hand of the one responsible for theil
circulation throughout the State ant
for the filing of the petitions with
the Secretary Of State. Such cir
cumstantial evidence does not, how
ever, seem to warrant a prosecution
for forgery.

laid down by the Justice at the time q

exchange turned weak on reports OF

kroner touched a new high at 1858.
Bond prices drifted downward with
the rise in call money and diversion
Of speculative interest to stock trad

felt that the stiffening of call loans
was only temporary in view Of month
end settlements. the development
was used as an excuse for general
profit taking.
Revolutionary disturbances caused

ed uneasiness over the Chinese situa-
tion at the same time was reflected in
a recession in Chinese railway IS to a

For the first time this week buying
support was lacking for United
States government obligations and
prices of both liberty and treasury
bonds were shaded. Speculative pur-
chasers were induced to unload some
of their holding by the record high
levels attained on the recent upswing.
Railroad issues, after showing a
tendency to follow the upward trend
Of carrier stocks in the early dealings,
turned reactionary. The downward
movement embraced Frisco, Chicago
