RIVALS ON CHEVY CHASE LINKS President Defeats Both General Edwards and Captain Butt at Many Fine Shots GolfMakes Utilizing every opportunity to be at his one outdoor sport President Taft yester- day afternoon led the two mainstays of the Golf Cabinet Gen Edwards and Capt Butt a merry chase around the links at the Chevy Chase Club The party consisting of the President Gen and Mrs Edwards and her guest to with Capt Butt arrived at the club about 3 oclock and did not leave until late in the evening After watching the beginning of the contest which dentally the President won by a good the ladles were interested of the rivals in the mens singles on the tennis courts Mr Taft swung oft with a drive good for 160 yards and his score shows that he is not so far behind some of those who aspire for club honors The heavy rain did not deter the party from finish Ins the round and although they came in drenched to the skin seal over the gamo was not lacking The President Is fully as enthusiastic over his drivers and brassies as was Mr Roosevelt with his racquets and tennis court After coming io from the links he talked of the game a few moments to a representative of The Waahington Herald at the bungalow where ho dresses and it was evident that he is determined to show the colony at Berkeley this AMES FLAYS PAYNE IN BITTER DEBATE Continued from Page One doing It also developed that both Mr Payne and Mr Ames had talked tho mat- ter over at the White House There grew up a feud in the apparently placid bosom of the Houses of Representatives and it was on the Republican sides Finally the lid of Mr Ames wrath blew otc yesterday He sailed into Mr Payne vigorously After announcing his object in taking the floor Mr Ames read sOme corre- spondence which receptly passed between himself and Mr Payne In a letter sent to Mr Payne Repre- sentative Ames said in part In answer to your letter from the Committee on Ways and Means on the 10th instant I would call your attention- to the fact that on three separate occa aions I approached your august person naked verbally and politely for a hearing Accused of Arrogance To my first request you arrogantly In- sisted that as far as you could flix out no one wanted the resolution that It was not good political sense Believing that your lack of courtesy was inexcusa- ble and that you were unable to under stand or appreciate that many Repub- lican members of the House not only wantod the resolution passed but believe the resolution to be good political sense I wont to the unusual labor of circulat ing a petition which I Inclosed with my written and last request for a herring Mr Ames went on to say that the President was interested in the that he dictated a letter to Mr Payne indicating his approval of the reso lution though not specifically asking therefor lest his request might embarrass tho House or lest the Housesmight em- barrass him by refusing Its indorsement Mr Ames then referred to an occasion when Mr Payne had Informed him that his relations with the President were such that when he wrote such a letter he did not want tho resolution If that bo true then Representative Fish and myself were both deceived said Mr Ames and I assures you It Is not even to be assumed either intention- ally or unintentionally that the Presi- dent would be lacking In sincerity or straightforwardness Your whole attitude In this matter is so lacking In common courtesy and a proper sense of proportion that I feel forced to make this written protest thereto Tree Be Damned Your letter should be interpreted The desires of many Republican members and tho public be d d Continuing his letter Mr Ames road It is just such hidebound intolerance of the desires and rights of others that is forcing members to advocator against their better fudgment a committee on committees In tho House in ardor to purge itself such individual misrule ether I Public g inc accrete specta- tors sum- s and resolu- tion It ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ mer some of the fine points of the game Whether the saying that only a Jolly man can really enjoy golf is true or not it la certain that few get as much fun out of the game as the President He te always ready with a word when a good drive is made either by himself or one of his guests and a pod hearty laugh is heard when a bit of hard luck chances br However Taft plays the gone with careful science as well as with good fun Yesterday out around the sixth hole where there is an unusually stiff haaard he made as pretty a stroke as been seen on the local links in many a day and his drive from the seventeenth hole to the home green ccme within a foot of the cup The President was in rare good humor- as ho stepped law ills car for the drive back to the city not forgetting a little goodnatured jotty directed at Mrs Ed- wards over the defeat administered to her husband The score pf the Presi- dent Gen Edwards and Capt Butt was ae follows J64J6757 t8 4Oft Ont la 5f 4 767 5 Oat la old la and abuse of power It is just such domination and disregard of the public desires that is fostering the movement of insurgency not only in the House but also the widespread Insurgency with which we are now lace to face Replying to Mr Ames Representative Payno said he did not care to get into a personal controversy with the gentleman from Massachusetts He denied that he had treated Mr Ames with discourtesy- He insisted that the passage of a reso- lution urging the negotiation of a com- mercial treaty with Canada would do no good and possibly might embarrass the Executive who was charged Vith the duty of making treaties Mr Payne said the majority of tho committed wa op- posed to action on the resolution and that some of those who had signed the petition asking for action on it were As far as I was concerned myself said Mr Payne I did not pro pogo by my vote in committee to bring up the question of the tariff In any way during this session of Congress and to that position I adhere MISSILES THROWN AT STREET CARS Womans Arm Js Bruised as Result of Disorder Continued disorder on the street cars and the difficulty of effectually stamping It out under present conditions has forci- bly directed attention to the recent rec- ommendation of the superintendent of police that conductors on street ears be given police authority upon the convey- ance which they are in charge of as In Virginia About 11 oclock Thursday night a woman passenger on westbound Penn- sylvania avenue car No 520 was struck on the right arm with an empty bottle thrown by an unknown negro at Twenty sixth street and Pennsylvania avenue Tho was badly bruised The negro had been ejected by the conductor be- cause of disorder- A short time before this two negro boys threw a stone at Eleventh and L streets southeast that smashed several windows In the car and startled the oc- cupants The boys had ben passengers on the car and had a dispute with the conductor Leaving the car they throw tho stone which bruised the motormans arm and broke the glass In the front of the car New Rectory nt Tnlconm The rectory of Tatcoma Parish was formally presented to the new pastor last night Among those present

committee also received uni- versal praise for the excellent menu and for the quick service main tained E H Neumeyor chairmen of that committee had a corps of trusty helpers who executed his aishea with admirable facility and the Ug crowd was better fed and more satisfactorily than over before on one of the Board of Trade outings Beet of all the dinner was the most informal affair possible The members filed in from the boat with congenial friends stood up at tables SlUed with abundance of good food and such drink as each might choose from the most rigid occupant of the front seat on the water wagon to the man who Is not afraid to look upon the amber fluid when it is amber and the fruit of the vine when It is red The fact is every guest and member of the Board of Trade had what he when he wanted it as he wanted it and in quantity to teat his ability to cat and drink to the utmost Crowd in Good Hnmor It a happy prosperous group of men who gathered at the Seventh street wharf at 189 oclock to take the after- noon boat The crowd numbered M many a 3W The early boat had taken down the several committees and a good many of the members The dining tents at Marshall Hall were in position the dinner was smoking hot when the boat arrived after discharging a big load of the Sunday school visitors at Mount It was near 3 oclock as the pas- sage of the boat down the river with its heavy load was slow Everybody had a good appetite and the serving of the dinner was the first duty to which the committee of arrangements directed its attention After dinner It had been arranged that- a fierce Same of bejeball should be played and tho players were out in their uniforms practicing But just as the game was about to be called rain began to pour down and contestants guests and members were driven to the dancing pavilion for shelter null Game Po tpmicl Tho baseball game was postponed but the outer contests on the programme were called on in tho pavilion and for two hours the place was forty times more animated than if a bit dancing party had been going on The ICOyard desalt the 50yard dash the threelegged the fat mens race the potato race soap bubble blowing the tugofwar and tho contest wero pulled off In the order given Interest wasarou ed by the of tho fat men The list of entries an nounced numbered thirtyone and in- cluded all the heavyweights of the Board of Trade and a few not so heavy such as Robert 1C Harper and E C Graham Not all the entrants appeared on the floor but the running team was made up of J E McGaw S I Bessollovro G W Engel R von Gilmer and half a dozen more whose ample girths are the pride of the town They ran swiftly and kept their feet upon the slippery floor They ran two laps from end to end of the building and though some of the contea tents were pretty well winded at the end they looked radiant and happy and don ned coats over white walscoats feeling that a valiant duty had been well per formed The threelegged race was also a spirit- ed affair he several teams making good time Potato Race Animated Possibly the potato race afforded much qmusement as tiny of the contests Five lines of potatoes wore laid and the five men ranged for the contest were H C Bangs Henry Balger W W Cone H G Taglcr and H C Shaddock A potato race on green turf is one thins and on a smooth dancing floor It Is quite another was much slipping and

Orville B W E Burns E R Banks and G Farquhar lined up for the contest In this race a second John Brewer had ben appointed Judgo of the first John Brewer who contested Tho two made an effort to win by the runner getting tho potatoes and tossing them to his partner The ruse was nearly defeated as tho crowd caught on and tho potatoes along the lino about as fast as tho Brewers could get them off It

meringues Evident- ly the boys had never had pies that tasted better and they ate them with a deliberation and a relish most maddening to the spectators Finally someone appeared on the Hear and smashed one of the tell late the face of one of the boys and then the fun began The other fellow dropped his pie and skipped for the door He was off and forced to take up his anew But in the end the pieeating was not the success it was hoped it would be A liberal contributions of dimes anti nick incident closed The award of prism was a pleasing In- cident of the trip home The members crowded to

Finally the lid of Mr Ames wrathblew otc yesterday He sailed into MrPayne vigorously
After announcing his object in takingthe floor Mr Ames read sOme corre-spondence which receptly passed betweenhimself and Mr Payne
In a letter sent to Mr Payne Repre-sentative Ames said in part
In answer to your letter from theCommittee on Ways and Means on the10th instant I would call your attention-to the fact that on three separate occaaions I approached your august personnaked verbally and politely for a hearing
Accused of ArroganceTo my first request you arrogantly In-
sisted that as far as you could flix outno one wanted the resolution that Itwas not good political sense Believingthat your lack of courtesy was inexcusa-ble and that you were unable to understand or appreciate that many Repub-lican members of the House not onlywantod the resolution passed but believethe resolution to be good political senseI wont to the unusual labor of circulating a petition which I Inclosed with mywritten and last request for a herring
Mr Ames went on to say that thePresident was interested in the
that he dictated a letter to MrPayne indicating his approval of the resolution though not specifically askingtherefor lest his request might embarrasstho House or lest the Housesmight em-
barrass him by refusing Its indorsementMr Ames then referred to an occasion
when Mr Payne had Informed him thathis relations with the President weresuch that when he wrote such a letterhe did not want tho resolution
If that bo true then RepresentativeFish and myself were both deceivedsaid Mr Ames and I assures you It Isnot even to be assumed either intention-ally or unintentionally that the Presi-dent would be lacking In sincerity orstraightforwardness
Your whole attitude In this matter isso lacking In common courtesy and aproper sense of proportion that I feelforced to make this written protestthereto

man can really enjoy golf is true or notit la certain that few get as much funout of the game as the President He tealways ready with a word when a gooddrive is made either by himself or oneof his guests and a pod hearty laughis heard when a bit of hard luck chancesbr However Taft plays the gonewith careful science as well as withgood fun Yesterday out around thesixth hole where there is an unusuallystiff haaard he made as pretty a strokeas been seen on the local links inmany a day and his drive from theseventeenth hole to the home greenccme within a foot of the cup
The President was in rare good humor-as ho stepped law ills car for the driveback to the city not forgetting a littlegoodnatured jotty directed at Mrs Ed-

and abuse of power It is just suchdomination and disregard of the publicdesires that is fostering the movementof insurgency not only in the House butalso the widespread Insurgency withwhich we are now lace to face
Replying to Mr Ames RepresentativePayno said he did not care to get into apersonal controversy with the gentlemanfrom Massachusetts He denied that hehad treated Mr Ames with discourtesy-
He insisted that the passage of a reso-lution urging the negotiation of a com-mercial treaty with Canada would do nogood and possibly might embarrass theExecutive who was charged Vith theduty of making treaties Mr Payne saidthe majority of tho committed wa op-posed to action on the resolution andthat some of those who had signed thepetition asking for action on it were
As far as I was concernedmyself said Mr Payne I did not propogo by my vote in committee to bringup the question of the tariff In any wayduring this session of Congress and tothat position I adhere

versal praise for the excellent menuand for the quick service main
tained E H Neumeyor chairmen ofthat committee had a corps of trustyhelpers who executed his aishea withadmirable facility and the Ug crowdwas better fed and more satisfactorilythan over before on one of the Board ofTrade outings
Beet of all the dinner was the mostinformal affair possible The membersfiled in from the boat with congenialfriends stood up at tables SlUed withabundance of good food and such drinkas each might choose from the mostrigid occupant of the front seat on thewater wagon to the man who Is notafraid to look upon the amber fluid whenit is amber and the fruit of the vinewhen It is red
The fact is every guest and memberof the Board of Trade had what he
when he wanted it as he wanted itand in quantity to teat his ability to catand drink to the utmost
Crowd in Good HnmorIt a happy prosperous group of
men who gathered at the Seventh streetwharf at 189 oclock to take the after-noon boat The crowd numbered Mmany a 3W The early boat had takendown the several committees and a goodmany of the members The dining tentsat Marshall Hall were in position thedinner was smoking hot when the boatarrived after discharging a big load ofthe Sunday school visitors at Mount
It was near 3 oclock as the pas-sage of the boat down the river with itsheavy load was slow Everybody had agood appetite and the serving of thedinner was the first duty to which thecommittee of arrangements directed itsattention
After dinner It had been arranged that-a fierce Same of bejeball should beplayed and tho players were out in theiruniforms practicing But just as thegame was about to be called rain beganto pour down and contestants guestsand members were driven to the dancingpavilion for shelter
null Game Po tpmiclTho baseball game was postponed but
the outer contests on the programmewere called on in tho pavilion and fortwo hours the place was forty timesmore animated than if a bit dancingparty had been going on The ICOyarddesalt the 50yard dash the threelegged
the fat mens race the potato racesoap bubble blowing the tugofwar andtho contest wero pulled offIn the order given
Interest wasarou ed by theof tho fat men The list of entries announced numbered thirtyone and in-
cluded all the heavyweights of the Boardof Trade and a few not so heavy suchas Robert 1C Harper and E C GrahamNot all the entrants appeared on thefloor but the running team was madeup of J E McGaw S I Bessollovro GW Engel R von Gilmer and half adozen more whose ample girths are thepride of the town They ran swiftly andkept their feet upon the slippery floorThey ran two laps from end to end of thebuilding and though some of the conteatents were pretty well winded at the endthey looked radiant and happy and donned coats over white walscoats feelingthat a valiant duty had been well performed
The threelegged race was also a spirit-ed affair he several teams making goodtime
Potato Race AnimatedPossibly the potato race afforded
much qmusement as tiny of the contestsFive lines of potatoes wore laid and thefive men ranged for the contest were HC Bangs Henry Balger W W ConeH G Taglcr and H C Shaddock
A potato race on green turf is one thinsand on a smooth dancing floor It Is quiteanother was much slipping andshuffling find the last potatoes came hardThe affair created so much diversion thatIt was decided to run another heat withnew foams from tho large number of entries In second race John BrewerOrville B W E Burns E RBanks and G Farquhar lined up for thecontest
In this race a second John Brewer hadben appointed Judgo of the first JohnBrewer who contested Tho two made aneffort to win by the runner getting thopotatoes and tossing them to his partnerThe ruse was nearly defeated as thocrowd caught on and tho potatoes
