vision OF Hon. e. C. Madison, the oys-
ter inspector for this district.
In this connection there cann& be
too emrhatically impressed upon oyster
planters the necessity for having their
corners properly marked. for the board
will unhcsitatingly declare all ground
not found to be marked for rent.
AS is we'll known, the neces-
sity for a new survey of the
oyster grounds in this, as well as
all the other districts bordering on the
river and bay in this vicinity, has
long existed IneXtricable confusion
has been caused by reason of lack Of
definite information about planting
grounds and because of laxity of plant
ers in marking their grounds. Many
evils Of this nature will be corrected
by the survey, which will be thorough
and complete.
Since Mr.. Madison has held the office
of Oyster Inspector. the business has
materially increased in this district.
but is now by no means what 1t ought
to be In Newport News. especially,
considcrinn. it's favored location. the
oyster packing business has been small,
but those who are in touch with this
phase of the enterprise expect TO Wit
ness. a large increase in this respect
within the next few years. Indeed, it
is he .ieved that in the course of time.
Newport News Will rival Norfolk in
the oyster packing industry. but if il
cxpects 20 do this. there will have to
bc a considerable amount of hustling.

Portsmouth again defeated Norfolk at
baseball yesterday, the score being to
l. The game was played on this side of
the river and was very creditable eN-
hihition. There was kicking by
either club which fact greatly pleased
the spectators. who were beginning to
tire of the many farces the national
game has been subjected to for several
days past. The umpire was Mr.. Brougll-
ton gentleman from Portsmouth, and
his decisions were fair and impartial
He demonstrated that he knew the
game. and when once he reached Il
decision he set down on it and kicking
was useless. Speaking of kicking, it
would be well to state that there was
no kicking. Neither club had any occa-
sion to dispute the umpire's decision
Hats off to Mr.. Broughton.
To turn 10 the game. 1t was an in
teresting contest from start to finish.
Portsmouth outplayed the locals and
won easily. The home team made their
only run In the third inning. and never
had another chance to score except in
the sixth, when Ticrney made three
Dagger. but his colleagues failed to hit
and he died on the base. The game was
delayed for fifteen minutes at the end
of the fourth inning on account of rain.
Flanagan and O'Brien both pitched
good ball, but the latter kept the hits
scattered much better than his oppo-
nents and thereby kept the locals from
scoring. Jim Smith was hit on the foot
by 4 swift line ball. which necesstated
delaying the game for few minutes.
He was able to resume play after few
minutes.
There will be two games in Ports
mouth this afternoon. the first begin

after.

THE SHAH OF PERSIA.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION l.
REGARD TO HIS ASSAILANT.

(By Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot>
Paris, Aug. Sat the meeting of
the Cabinet this morning it was an
nounced that the would-bc assassin of
Muzaffer Ed-Din. Shah of Persia. had
given his name as Salson. a man of
this name. who had been regarded and
watched as an anarchist, disappeared
from Paris in 1895 and had not since
been located.
The discovery of Salson's identity
was made by means of the Bertillon
system, his measurements agreeing
with a card at police headquarters.
When shown the card and photograph
the criminal said:
Yes: that is me-"
His full name is Francois Salson. He
is n Frenchnan, and was born in 1876.
He was regarded as n dangerous an
anarchist, and in October, 1898, was
condemned TO three months imprison-
ment for preaching anarchy. In June,
1899. he was condemned to eight
months imprisonment for n like Of
fence.
Salson was more communicative to-
day, and when an effort was made to
interrogate him he spoke freely of
yesterdays attempt and ventilated his
anarchistic ideas. but when asked If
he acted as the instrument OF others
he declined 10 answer, saying. how
ever, that had he killed the Shah and
escaped he would have killed the Car.
Further inquiries at the working
mems hotel, where Salson lived,
brought to light the fact that he had
been working at day labor until re-
Gently. when his work was finished.
He was then unable to find new en-
ployment and became more uncommu-
NEGATIVE even than formerly. though
still keeping regular hours. The last
few days the question of existence was
q difficult one for him.
