No NEW PLAGUE CASES
incubation of Chinese and jap
aneSe Goes On.

San Francisco, May 20.-No new cases
of bubOnic plague have been discovered
and the situation remains practically IN
changed. This announcement was made
by the board of health tonight
The incubation of Chinese and Japan
csc is quietly going on. From unofficial
sources it is learned that eight Japanese
and eleven Chinese were inoculated with
hafkine yesterday and twenty-six jap
anese and fifty Chinese today. At all the
exits of the city doctors are stationed
and unless a Chinese or japanese can
exhibit d certificate Of inoculation he is
not permitted 70 pass the city limits.
Bhe declaration OF the board OF health
that the plague exists IN the Chinese
quarter of the city has produced no
alarm outside Of that section. The chief
feature OF the situation lies in the OPP
position OF the Chinese and japanese TO
incubation
The position Of the board of health is
that the circumstances do not warrant
the quarantiuing of the Chinese district
or the compelling Of its inhabitants to
submit to incubation so long as they
remain in the city. Only those desiring
to leave the city are required to be in
oculated.
The Chinese consuI. general stated to-
night that he would take no action in
the matter until he is more fully in
formed as to the plans II the board of
health or until some development in the
situation requires him to take official
action. Business was suspended in the
Chinese quarter today and knots OF
Chinese stood on the streets discussing
the situation and expressing their de-
termination not 20 submit to incubation.
They say they would rather die from he
plague than from poison.

LEFT-HANDED BATTERS.
They Have Many Advantages Over
the other Kind.
(CoIorado springs Telegraph)

COLORADO Springs Telegraph)
It is interesting to recapitulate the
great advantages a eft-handed batter
has over the other kind. He has some
ten feet the best of it running to first
base. He has the curve Of a right
handed pitcher mastered. His over
whelming advantage, however. is Of the
team rather than the individual sort.
He can bunt to better advantage than
the right-hander, because he can reach
first faster. Nothing will demoralize
an infield so much as having a series
Of hunts or slow Founders beaten out.
Having balls hit through like cannon
shots is had enough, but having
scratch hits beaten out by a fast fell
low, having a third baseman drawn in
to field bunt and then almost massa-
cred by a hard drive, is the most pro
yoking and exasperating of all plays.
Playing against Indianapolis the other
day Burke i. Heidrick and Donovan of
the Cincinnati team, made successive
safe hunts. which followed by two hits
were enough to win any game and drive
any team up IN the air. It is the utter
state OF decentralization, rather than
anything else, TO which a lot Of left
handed hitters drive an inf Z that
makes them valuable. The superiority
Of the left-handed hittars is apparent
by the fact that Of the eighteen best
hitters in the league twelve bat left
handed. OF the sixty players who bat
ted within the coveted 800 class last
year thirty-fiVe were left-handed hit
ters. At that the right-handers were
piled together at the bottom Of the list.

Indianapolis, Ind, May 20.-Indiana
Republican leaders and delegates to the
national convention will go to Phila-
delphia with the intention of starting
boom for Senator Fairbanks for pres
ident in 1904. They have talked the
matter ever among themselves and
have come to the conclusion that the
time is ripe to begin. Since Congress-
man Lands, in a speech before the
state convention, announced that In
diana would propose the name Of
Senator Fairbanks for president in
1904 it has been regarded almost a
certainty that Senator Fairbanks will
be a candidate for nomination.
Republican leaders in the state say
there is a growing sentiment for him
everywhere, and unless something IN
expected happens, the prominent men of
number Of states will rally to his
support when the time comes for him
to make an announcement.
They say that the course of Senator
Fairbanks has been pleasing TO the
president, Senator Hanna and others,
and the leaders in this state say that
it VIII not be difficult to impress the
crowds at Philadelphia that Senator
Fairbanks is the right man for the
party to nominate for president next.
1t is probable that Senator Fairbanks
viii be made chairman of the Indiana
delegation at Philadelphia. There will
be probably 8 thousand Indianans at
the convention

Hawaiian Natives Plan to Enter
American Politics.
WILL STAND TOGETHER
IDEA rs TO PRESENT UNITED
FRONT AND GAIN CONTROL.
Financial Boom on the Islands is Pre-
dicted Under United States Rule
Two Sugar Plantations Become
Idle-Foreign Steamers Lose the
Coast Traffic.

Honolulu, May u (via San Francisco,
May 20.)-If their leaders have any con-
troll over their political destinies, the
natives of the islands will not for some
time to come, express utilization with
either Of the two political parties. So
much was decided by a number Of them
at a meeting held recently.
At this meeting were men inclined
to be Republicans, and some favorable
70 the principles Of Democracy. A ma
jOrity, however, favored some sort of
whites as were. acceptable to their
ideas. The Portuguese were mention
ed.
The idea of the natives is to form an
independent party. It was remarked
that out of 1000 votes that could be
mustered, the natives would poll 5000.
Some of these would be lost to the
Republican and Democratic parties,
but with white and Portuguese allies,
they would have a large majority.
Financial Boom is Predicted.
The financial assurance of a stable
government viii, IT is predicted, cause
a financial boom in Honolulu. In ad-
dition to the influx of capital that is
expected from the mainland, comes
word that President Mckinley has ap-
proved bill lately passed by the coun-
ell of state making available $2,eoe, 000.
Word has also been received that Sec
rotary Gage has announced that within
forty-fivs days the Washington govern
ment will call in the 81, 600, 900 of bonds
assumed by the United States and pay
for them. Probably $4,000 600 of those
bonds are held by the Hawaiian peo-
pie, and it Is estimated that s., 0e6, 900
are now in the islands.
Added to this, plantations viii pay
their dividends in June and Jaly.
Sugar Plantations Idle.
Kamalo plantation and the American
Sugar plantation, both on the island of
MOlokai, have suspended operations.
Work on Kamalo has been stopped on
account OF lack Of funds. The Ameri-
can Sugar company could not develop
a pure water supply, and therefore
was compelled to suspend what prem
Used to be one of the largest sugar es-
tates in the world.
Foreigners Stop Coast Traffic.
For a time the steamer, freight and
passenger service between the islands
and the coast Will be less convenient
than it has been. The steamships fly
ing foreign flags will not carry freight
or passengers between here and the
coast after June Ia, in accordance with
the territorial bill. The Canadian-Aus-
tralian line is not effected, as their
steamers so to Victoria and Vancouver
and not TO American ports.

REPUBLICANS FOR TowNE.

Him For Vice President


Him For Vice President.
Kansas City, No. May 21.-Dr. A. B.
Lawrence Of Eldorado, Kan, is here at
the request Of Charles Towne, the Pop
ulist nominee for vice president, for
the purpose of completing arrange
ments for holding the national con-
ventiOn of the silver Republicans in
this city.
Mr.. Lawrence is the national commit
teeman from Kansas, and will act in
conjunction with Mr.. Corser of Mime
apelis, who is the treasurer of the ma
tional committee.
DR.. Lawrence said: Bryan viii go
through with q shout. There is not the
slightest doubt Of that. Whether
Towne will be his running mate is
something that is too far ahead for
me to say positively. But that the sill
Yer Republicans viii try to force him
to take the nomination is something
that is not so sure. We shall n6t
threaten. or in any other way force his
nomination on the Democrats. But it
is my impression that they can get no
better man to run with Bryan than
Towne.
THE Kansas silver Republicans will
hold The state convention in Topeka
July 2. Mr.. Towne has said that he
will be there, and will, of course, be the
center of attraction. They will finish
the business at Topeka in time for the
entire convention 70 come directly here
and participate in the business of the
national convention"
