WASHINGTON April 27. Secretary
Ijansing Kaid late today he had no I Hi
ther advices from Berlin regarding the
submarine issue and the situation le
mained unchanged. The German em
bassy also was said to be without Infor
mation.
Announcement In press dispatches from
Berlin that Ambassador Gerard would
confer with Emperor William at the
army headquarters was regarded by of-
ficials as being significant. The opinion
was freely exuresaed that It was ncft at
all unlikely that the emperor might have
in mind supplementing Germany's reply
to tne American note uemunding the im-
mediate nhundonmont of present meth-
ods of submarine warfare with a person!
communication to 1'reRident Wilson.
Ambassador Gerard in visiting the em
peror is not acting under Instructions
from 'Washington. Consequently officials
assumed that tna emperor invited air.
Gerard to confer with him. In both of
flclal and diplomatic ouarters the iniec
tlon of the emperor's personality Into the
subject was regarded-as being a hopeful
indication.
President Wilson expects to receive the
German reply within the next few days
The president officials declare will not

sands of telegrams sent in the past few
day to senators and representatives
urging them not to approve any action
which might lead to war. His course in
the German situation will be guided en
tlrely by the character of the German re
ply. Should any serious effort be made

A DA Y OF SENSATIONAL SURPRISES
Famous Figures in State Golf Went Falling in Two Rounds
of Match Play for Title.
In a day of sensational surprises and
remarkable overturnlngs of the form
Fheet the eleventh State golf tournament
here progressed through two days of its
four-day schedule and the first two
rounds ot match play In the champion-
ship. As a result of the most phenomenal
series of defeats experienced in a State
tournament the eight players remaining
to contest the third round in the title
flight number but few of the names that
have made other golf tourneys memorable.
Today in the upper half of the sur-
viving pairings the rugged Houston vet-
eran battle-scarred by links battles for
years gone Bryan rteara. stanus om 03
the sole bulwark of middle age against
Young America. For the other three
plavers in his half who will oppose Ins
way into tne semiutiais una iiimiii
three of the young players of the State
two of them being the sensational Tar-
rants from San Antonio ana tne inner
Billy Hunt ot Houston who lea tne
Houston contingent In the qualifying
round Wednesday but whose score hy
mistake was given as 85 Instead of 7o.
In the lower halt of the survivals um
veterans have been grouped together as
A. D. Langham of Houston. George Al-
dredge of Dallas. O. J. Niekson of Gal-
veston and L. R. Munger of Dallas are
all experienced players.
By far the biggest feature of the tour-
nament was the defeat in the first round
Thursday morning of. George v. itotan
the Huaco club star- for the past four
consecutive seasons the State champion.
Rotan was beaten by rred 1 arrant tne
San Antonio stripling who outplayed the
champion" from tee to green and won his
match on the fourteenth hole t up ann .
Itotan had tied the four-year mark or Bon
Connerlv of Austin a mark which in
view of Rotan's defeat yesterday will
probably stand for some time to come.
The live-year consecutive title bolder Is
many years in prospect.
There were no other realty reinarKBQie
occurrences in the first rouna tnougn
there were several close matches but
they came .thick .and fast in the second.
A n. Danchnm of Houston trimmea
"Happy" Mass'ingail of Glen Garden. Fort
Worth who had turned in a 1.1 on I hurs-
day In the qualifications and had beaten
the redoubtable Karl Moore or jai esiun
2 up In the morning 3 up and 2 George
Aldredge slipped tne itiscarn to anomer
Houston bet when he defeated Benny
Brown. 2 up. This wan hardly a surprise 1
as Aldredge has always been one ot tho
best players of the state and twice a
finalist. Voting America had a shock I
when Charlie Dexter Jr. of Dallas last
year s runner up 111 the 1 exas cnampion-
shlp and Southern title holder was beat-
en 1 up by G. J. Nk-kson of Oleander
Galveston. .Niekson la a newcomer to
Texas golf but he is an Englishman who
learned his game on- the other side and
a proficient veteran as the "high card''
learned. Koy Munger wound up the day's
sensations by eliminating Clarence Maug-
ham of San Antonio 2 up and 1.
Wagerers have always ventured wisely
or unwisely on golf matches but the
talent suffered a severe reverse yester-
day and will probably fight shy of today's
round. .
Bryan Heard Is to meet the tournament
whirlwind young Fred Tarrant. The 'vet-
eran golfer who has never won a State
title is playing at top speed. This may
be the year in which lie will come
through. It ia again Houston against
San Antonio in the other match in this
half Billy Hunt being pitted against
.lack Tarrant.
In the lower half Langham of Hous-
ton will face Aldredge of Dallas and
Niekson of Galveston will meet Roy Mun-
ger of Dallas.
But three of the third round player
had scores tinder 0 in t lie qualifying
round Hunt making 75 Heard 76 and
Jack Tarrant 7D. Mckson of Galveston
got In with an 85 where it took 86 to
qualify.
Rotan's experience yesterday is no new
one. Two years ago the lengthy Texan
reached the semi-finals in Southern golf
only to be eliminated by the phenomenal
ferry Adair of Atlanta a mere youngster.
The eight survivors to play the third
round for the Houston cup Friday morn-
ing include two Houston players three
from Austin two from San Antonio and
one from Fort Worth.
As In the championship the pairings
havefavored the distribution of cities in
this flight and no two representatives of
the same club will face euclt other this
morning.
After the championship Interest usually
settles In the contest for the Texas cup
open to the defeated 16 of the llrat round
of match play In the championship flight.
The first round for the Texas cup was
played Thursday afternoon.
Only two of the matches were clOBe
Bart Moore of Oleander Galveston de-
feating Dr. R. W. Cox 2 up and 1 and
B. A. Baldwin of Houston besting Kd
Tarrant by the same score. Itotan who
would undoubtedly have been the class
of the field courteously defaulted to
Franklin. In the second round Houston
bus four players Galveston two Sau An-
tonio and Fort Worth one each.
in the survivors for the second round of
the consolation flight (defeated 16 of
