June 5 At the end of the morning round of the 86-hole final for the Metropolitan golf championship today, between Walter J. Travis, Garden City, and John G. An derson, Siwanoy, on the links orf the Apawamis Club, the rival players were all square. The weather was ideal for this bat tle between the two celebrated golfers. The sky was heavily overcast, but now and then the sun broke through for a minute of doubtful sunshine.

A gallery of about 200 started at 10 o'clock with the match. Late arriv als swelled the throng to half a thou sand at the finish. The general Impression of the experts was that Anderson was "not there In the pinches." Travis comment at the end was: It's mighty poor golf, but a corking good match." In the beaten sixteen of the cham pionship division Dwlght Partridge was 1 up on Max H. Bebr at the end of the first round. The play for the championship, told in detail, follows: Anderson 1 Up at the Turn.

First Hole (377 Yards, Par 4) Fine drives, for both were far down the course. Travis had the better tee for his second, but topped, Anderson's second was over the green to rough, but after chopping back for an eight foot putt he sank it for a 4, while Travis took two putts for 5. Anderson, 1 up. Second Hole (356 Yards, Par 4) Travis pulled to rough, but Anderson topped his second and It was a half in 6. Third Hole (810 Yards, Par 4) Anderson sliced to a trap, was out a few feet and then put a high mashie on the green, 20 feet from the cup.

He sank the putt and saved a half in 4, Travis being straight. Fourth Hole (325 Yards, Par 4) Trapped In front of the green while Anderson was on in 2, Travis lost, 6 to 5, though Anderson took three putts. Anderson. 2 up. Fifth Hole (160 Yards, Par 3) Both were on from the tee.

Anderson ran up poorly for a missed four foot putt. Travis was dead on his approach putt and won, 3 to 4. Anderson, 1 up. Sixth Hole (330 Yards, Par 4) Anderson topped his drive to rough. Travis was par and straight and was on In two, Anderson taking one more.

Two putts for each gave Travis the hole and squared the match. Seventh Hole (391 Yards, Par 4) Travis topped his brassie to rough In the gorge, while Anderson was on with a fine Iron. Anderson's third was on the edge of the cup. Travis from twenty feet tried for his 4 and knocked in Anderson's ball, giving the latter the hole by one stroke less, or 3 to 5. An derson, 1 up.

Eighth Hole (176 Yards. Par 8) Off the green to the left by 3 feet, Anderson was so annoyed by being snapped Just as he played his second that he flubbed, and as Travis was on from the tee, Anderson conceded the hole. Match all square. Ninth Hole (612 Yards, Par 6 After slicing his brassie to long grass, Anderson made a great iron recovery, standing above his ball, to the edge of the green. Travis' three straight shots, twenty feet short of the green, availed nothing as he chipped over fifteen feet while Anderson laid his fourth dead for a win.

5 to 6. At the turn Anderson was 1 up. The cards out were: Travis 5 6 4 6 3 4 5 8 641 Andereon 4 5 4 5 4 5 3 4 639 Tenth hole (350 yards, par 4) Bv getting trapped hole high to the left on his iron second, while Travis was Just off the green ten feet from tho pin, Anderson lost, 6 to 4, match square. Eleventh hole (350 yards, par 4) Against the twelve-mile wind Ander son was out of bounds on his drive and skied his next, stopping in the hollow short of the slope, down near the brook. Travis was not over the slope and also lay near the brook, but thirty yards farther.

Anderson's long iron over the moat to the green was applauded. Travis used a brassie and was over the green, Just escaping rough. He chipped back dead. Anderson was on the edge on his long putt. It was Travis' hole.

4 to 5. Travis, 1 up. Twelfth hole (201 yards, par 3) Anderson played this hole like a duf fer. His drive was beyond the green in short rough. Travis was in the big pit under the hill.

He took two to get out and then lay off the green to the right. He ran up to 3 feet, playing 5. Anderson chopped out to the green, and then instead of going hard for the hole, he played it too easy, and the first thing he knew he was playing 4 with a 6-foot putt to get. He missed it and Travis got a half. Thirteenth hole 260 yards, par 4) By pulling his drive to rough and taking two putts, while Anderson was on for one putt, Travis lost the thirteenth, 4 to 3.

Match square. Fourteenth hole (548 yards, par 6) The advantage of a better long game was shown here. Anderson In 2 was well over the brook and up the slope while, on the like, Travis was short of the brook. Travis' iron up the hill was near the big rock, but not in rough. He chipped down and sunk a 15-foot putt.

Anderson's third was three feet short of the green. He ran up to four feet and missed for a half. Travis' hole, 5 to 6. Travis 1 up. Fifteenth hole (361 yards, par 4) Travis pulled to rough, but was out to Just short of the green.

Anderson, straight from the tee, also was short. Travis chipped up poorly, leaving himself an eight-foot putt. Anderson was stone dead. Travis missed the putt and Anderson won, 4 to 6, to square the match. Sixteenth hole (217 yards, par 4) By pulling his drive to a trap back of the second green, Travis required 3 to get the green.

Anderson was hole high in short rough. Again he threw away the hole. His chip shot left him mitt vuHirh Via mtocflH was on in 3. eight feet awav! and dropped the putt for a half In 4. Seventeenth hole (637 par 5) A poorly nu onve laii imvis in ine MAY NOT BE FILLED Public Service Commission Probably Will Not Appoint His Successor.

MAY USE SPECIAL APPRAISERS. Chairman McCall Hopes to Induce Real Estate Expert to Change His Mind. The bevy of Democratic aspirants to the $6,000 post of real estate expert to the Public Service Commission, left vacant by the resignation of Sig Ced-erstrom of Brooklyn, are doomed to a bitter disappointment. For It was learned today on good authority that the plan of action that the Commission will in all probability follow is not to appoint a successor to Mr. Cederstrom, but merely to carry on all that work, as was done for a period before his appointment, by special appraisers appointed for each Individual Job.

No action will be taken on the resignation nor will a final decision be reached on the Commission's future policy In real estate matters before the end of next week, it is believed. Everything is held up pending the return of Chairman McCall, who has been out of town for several days. Tremendous pressure has been brought to bear upon Mr. Cedarstrom to try to induce him to stay, but it has proved impossible to get him to change his mind. Chairman McCall, however, is understood not to have given up the effort and it is believed that upon his return, a most lucrative offer will be made to the Brooklyn real estate man.

That a substantial raise in his sal ary will be proposed Is known, and it is whispered that the Commission might be willing to make it as high as $10,000 a year, so valuable are his ser vices considered. But even this, it Is felt certain, will not move Mr. Ceder Strom. Reports that Thomas F. Byrnes, the Democratic leader of the Eleventh Assembly District, was in line for the place were found to be without foun dation.

Although the local organlza tlon would like to reward the former State Tax Commissioner, it is felt that his appointment would be Inadvisable. The mere fact that he is a district leader, that he was In the real estate bureau of the Finance Department at the time of the Kissena Park contro versy, and that he was actually removed from his late job in the State's service are all cited as points that militate against his chances. Many real estate men in all parts of the borough have their eyes on the plum, and officials of the Commission fear they will be swamped with applications for the place. Gossip has brought out the names of several Brooklynltes who would be likely timber if it were decided to fill the job. Among others talked of are James J.

Lahey, a follower of Ward In the Coney Island district; Thomas Hovenden, w. G. Morrissey, Isaac Cortelyou and DeHart Bergen. All that could be learned at the Commission today, however, was that all candidacies and booms were useless, as the place would be left vacant. The method contemplated of having special appraisers do the work would result, it is believed, in having Mr.

Cederstrom called in as advisor of the Commission in some of the bigger cases that come before it. Even before he went on the Commission as its expert, he did work of that sort. It is believed, however, that to handle the work in this way would cost far more, maybe above $15,000 a year, and would be far less satisfactory. For questions Involving millions of dollars come before the Commission in the course of a year. Mr.

Cederstrom was reached at his home at 616 East Twenty-first street today. He declined to comment on the matter of his resignation, referring all Inquirers to Secretary Whitney of the Commission, who could not be reached. That he plans to go back into his private business as soon as he has rested up, is regarded as certain. There was considerable speculation today as to what might happen if it were finally decided to appoint a successor in spite of the present plans. It was pointed out that Governor Whitman through Commissioner Hay-ward, would be able to wield a big stick over the four Democratic mem bers, and that it was doubtful If they would find any freedom of action.

In view of the recent charges, it is believed they could be prevailed upon to do pretty much as the Governor wanted. That this would spoil the chances of any very active Tammany politicians was regarded as quite cer tain. LEAVES $2,000 FOR A WINDOW. Mrs. Anna Shields Bequeaths Sum to New Utrecht Church.

The New Utrecht Reformed Church at Eighteenth avenue and Van Pelt Manor, receives $2,000 from the $15,000 estate of Mrs. Anna Shields, to install a window in memory of her mother, Anna Maria Cortelyou Van Pelt, and to be known as the Cortelyou Window.

SLAVER'S SENTENCE UPHELD. "Dago Joe" Anzllottl Must Serve Forty Years, Affirms Appellate Division. The Appellate Division unanimously has affirmed the conviction of Joseph Anzllottl, 31 years old, of 661 Sackett street, on the charge of white slavery, a second offense, and his sentence of forty years in Sing Sing, Imposed by Judge Fawcett.

Sugar Refinery Near Souchez Twice Captured by the French.

GERMANS REGAINED IT ONCE. 3,000 of Kaiser's Men Killed 3,000 Prisoners of One French Regiment, Is Official Report. Paris, June 8. 11:58 a.m. The capture by the French of the sugar refinery near Souchez is described In a report given out today by the official "eyewitness" at the front.

This is what it says: "Violent attacks on the part of the French from both the west and the south were met by a fire of the German batteries and machine guns located on the north side of the refinery. The Germans resisted for some time, but finally were demoralized by the artillery fire of the French, and withdrew. "The basement of the factory was found to be filled with German dead, while the French losses were slight. "Furious at having lost a position which would serve as a base for counter attacks on Ablaln, virtually all of which is in the possession of the French, the Germans made a desper ate effort tu regain it. Amid de stroyed walls and great holes In the ground made by large shells, the Ger mans began their attack at midnight.

In this rapid and confused engagement the French were obliged to withdraw but a watchful French major prepared rapidly for a counter attack. The French company which had momen tarily yielded later pushed forward. aided by reinforcements and an In tense artillery fire under which tho Germans feared their retreat would be cut off. "When the French counter attacl. had attained the refinery Itself it was round that the Germans already had wnnnrawn, and tne position was promptly organized by the French.

During this work a non-commissioned officer remained for eight hours at his post directing his men, and this In spite of the fact that he had a splin ter from a shell in his thigh. "In a period of three weeks nearly 3,000 Germans have been burled and more than 3,000 have been taken pris oners by the same French regiment."

Large Part of Russian Forces Succeeded in Retreating to the East. MUCH WAR BOOTY SECURED Petrograd Reports Advance of Ger man Center Cheeked Ten Miles East of Przemysl.

Berlin, June (via London) Reports from the Galician front indicate that the Austro-German troops are now in complete possession of all parts of Przemysl. The Russians contested stubbornly each advance, but at length were driven from the eastern and southeastern forts, which were the last to fall. It is generally admitted that the part of the Russian forces in Przemysl was able to effect a retreat eastward by defending the positions toward the south. This checked the attacking army of General von Boehm-Ermolli and temporarily presented the complete circling of the city, although the railroad line along which the retreat occurred was under the fire of field guns, they were too far away to be effective. Apparently the city suffered little during the Russian occupation.

Huge stores of provisions were recovered and a considerable amount ot war material was captured. Heavy Fighting Near Medyka. Immediately after the occupation of Przemyl General Von Mackensen's army pressed eastward. It encountered the Russian renr mmrris on the heights near Medyka, where fighting is still In progress. The Teutonic Allies have succeeded, however, in joining their forces along a continuous front moving eastward, which has relieved the difficult position of the north wing.

The only serious opposition which expected will probably be offered near the Grodek Lakes, south of em- berg, where the Russians may be able to throw in reserves. It is expected that the army of General Linsingen, moving northeastward from Stry, would be able to threaten the Russians from the rear, If they should offer such resistance. Germans Rushing Reinforcements Into Galicla. Petrograd, June 5 (via London) Further discussion of the evacuation of Przemysl brought out the claim in Petrograd today that the Germans doubled their forces operating on their southeastern front during the Galician advance, and that fresh troops and artillery are still being sent In. Most of these reinforcements are being directed toward the Russian left flank in the Dniester region, this having become since the abandonment of Przemysl the chief point of the Austro-Germania attack.

The movement of the German center would appear to have been stopped ten miles to the east of Przemysl, and the elimination of the Irregularities of the Russian align ment nas, accoruing to itussian militarists, advantageously shortened their front from 60 to 15 miles. It is now a straight line between Gussakow and oldava, and not more than 15 miles long. With this center of the Galician operations marking time, the Germans are described here as being forced back on their extreme left near the Lower San and as advancing toward the Dniester fortifications on their right. This gives the situation as a whole the character of a slow pivoting movement, with Przemysl as the center. ijonnon, June ine Ausiro-uer-man forces have pushed their salient as far as Tukhla, which is some distance northeast of Przemysl.
