CRICKET MATCHES PLANNED. An Alphabetical Game May Be
 Played Next Month for Charity

At meeting of the California Cricket Association held yesterday it was decided that, Tn making up the the batting and bowling averages for the Burnell prizes. all matches held "under the auspices, of the association during the season of 1898 be taken into consideration; but that. in order to be eligible as a competitor. a member of one of the city clubs must have batted or bowled in not fewer than eight innings, and a member of coun- try club in not fewer than five innings.
 On September IS and 25 match will be played on the Alameda ground be- tween teams representing the cities of San Francisco and Alameda, the former to be selected by R. B. Hogue, and the latter by H. Ward. The match will be under the auspices of the association.
 Cecil Gardner, well-known cricketer of Santa Clara County. has suggeste that game, to be called the 'fAlpha- betical Cricket Match' should be played before the end of the season on an fn- closed ground, admission to be charged Benevolent Association or some other deserving charity. Invitations to take part in the game to be sent to all we'll known cricketers in the State, and the teams to be selected by committee ap- pointed by the association; players whose names begin with any letter from A to l. to constitute one team, and the bear CTS of names commencing with any letter fom M to to form the other eleven. Be- fore definitely accepting this suggestion 1t was decided to ascertain whether or not the cricketers of Placer County pro- pose to visit San Francisco before the end of the present season. In making up the schedule of the association for 1898 the month of October was left open for engagements with country cricketing teams visiting San Francisco.

REFUSED FIRE ALARM
 BOXES AT HIGH PRICES
SULLIVAN WIPED A FAT JOB
 IN THE BUD.
Contractors Planned to Charge the City Almost Double the Market Prices for Ap-
 pliances.

You may count on me to oppose you at every turn" was the suggestive re- mark that Fire Chief Sullivan made yes terday to R. A. Rose, representative of pany.
 That Is just what said to him." re- marked the Chief. His company is try ing to make the city pay what I con- sider an excessive price for new fire alarm boxes. The Supervisors recently received bids for 100 boxes and two bids came in-one from the Gamewell people and the other from the United States Company. Both were for keyless boxes, and the same figure was named-s125 apiece. told MT. Rose that it had come to my knowledge that the Gamewell con- cern was selling the same box to other parties for $100 He admitted the fact but said that he thought was his friend. told him that 1 was on the basis of s100 per box to the city, but not on the $l25 schedule. He then declared that the company could not see its way clear to sell to San Francisco at $100 per box. The interview broke off with the statement from me that 1 should oppose the letting of the contract. It is my understanding that the United States Company and the Gamewell are practically one and the same, although they bid under two diff why the city should give s,-,500 for 100 boxes when they are not worth over half that sum. In the past, but at different times, the city has purchased 260 of these boxes at the high price demanded by the company. That was before l learned that cheaper rate was quoted to other GUS toners. It isn't fair to San Francisco to charge the top price,"
 Superintendent w. R. Hewitt of the Police and Fire Alarm Telegraph coincid- ed with Chief Sullivan. We can get along without the 100 boxes rather than pay the fancy price demanded by the Gamewell people, he said. 'In fact, I alarm boxes needed in future in the city shops. It can be done without infringing any patent. We can make good keyless box for s65, the same as the bidders want to sell us for SI25.

A RAILWAY SYSTEM
 HAS CHANGED HANDS
LOCAL CAPITALISTS CONSUM-
 MATE A BIG DEAL.
The Huntingtons and Other We'll Known Financiers Have Pur- chased the Los Angeles
 Street Railways.

A syndicate composed of San Francisco capitalists will soon be in control of the Los Angeles street railroad system. The deal has been in contemplation for some time, and will be consummated within Q few days.
 The local ananciers who are interested in this new enterprise are: c. P. Hunting ton, Henry E. Huntington, l. W. He'll man, Christian de Guigne and H. Borel.
 The Los Angeles street railroads were recently consolidated and bonded. These bonds will be purchased by the new com- bination and another issue made.
 Parties interested deny that the South ern Pacific is the ruling power of the concern. They claim that theirs is a to- tally distinct business corporation and that Los Angeles will hereafter benefit by 1t to very great extent. A system such as this city possesses will be formed and every effort made to give complete satis- faction to the Los Angeles public.

WITH THE
 PLAYERS

The Shakespearian performance given at the Baldwin Theater last evening would better be entitled Lady Mac beth" for Macbeth himself, as played by MT. Herman, was a subsidiary and indefinite figure. The honors of the night were entirely Modjeskas. Lady Macbeth is not one of her greatest roles. It would seem beyond nature for an actress to embody such a Mary Stuart as Modjeska's and yet attain to the he roic severity of Lady Macbeth. And still there are moments of repressed intensity Gin the dagger and sleep-walking scenes. for exampie) in which she gives the part a most poignant reality and in spite Of the differences between her tempera- ment and the heavy obligations of the character, there Is never a moment in which she is not an artist and entirely consistent in her interpretation The portrayal is intensely imaginative and tnrilling-but it Is as though Patti should essay Brunhilde.
 With the exception of Mr. Herman. who was really not of this earth in his rantlng and fuming, the company did very we'll; especially Mir. Lonergan in Macduff, which was even better given than during the last engagement. Mary Stuart will be played again tomorrow night, Camille" Friday night, and AS You Like It. at the Saturday matinee.
