 New Orleans, June 3.-(Special )-Wil- helm proved this afternoon that he Is just a trif1e more than the Pelicans can solve and is one of the best pitchers in the league. For the second time he de- feated the leagues leading players, and this time in a fast struggle by score of 3 to ?.
 The game on both sides was filled with sensational ball playing, but the Coal Barons were thoroughly awake and were a match for the Pelicans at every point.
 Just before the game started Sorber complained of being sick and Brown took his place in the field while Blue went back of the plate and caught an excep- tionally strong game. Smith on short was an improvement over the previous day, and toward the end of the game he reached above his head and nipped a hot liner with one hand that proved sensa- tion. He Is developing into a very speedy shortstop and will doubtless give all the service the Coal Barons can want.
 Some Lively Fielding.
 In the third there was some more lively fielding recorded by Hallers band. The bags were full, with one out and that is a dangerous situation to allow the Peli- cans to occupy. It did not seem to rattle Wilhelm in the least. Stanley came up and his hitting ability drew a mammoth cheer from the stand, but the best he could do was to shoot hot one down to Wilhelm that came back to the plate like a flash, caught Freeland coming In from third, and Blue advanced the ball to Haller in time to catch Stanley, making a fast double and retiring the side. It was a great piece of baseball work, and the local gathering, as much as they like the Pelicans, paid the tribute so cleverly earned
 Crowd Cheered Atz.
 In the fifth Longley lined one out over Atz's head and that clever player jumped high in the air and got 1t with one hand and again the crowd cheered. The game was filled with just such incl dents, which added considerable excite ent
 The Coal Barons captured two of their runs in the second inning. LaRocque was first up and ripped out a single to left. and F. Smith sacrificed and Brown fol- lowed with a drive to right center that brought in LaRocque and Brown scored from second on Blues single. Blue in the seventh walked to first, advanced on Wilhelm's sacrifice and scored on w Smiths single. He had a difficult slide to get in

recorded upon the occasion of the reg
uiar election two years ago. The Fourth
district voters will find that there is
such demand for their ballots that
there viii be no chance for any man to
escape going to the polls. There will be
no confusion in voting, as the law says
voters must cast their ballots in the
same precinct where they voted two
years ago.
Republicans and Home Rulers held
meetings of the managing committees
yesterday and the result was that each
claimed that the victory was assured.
The Republicans are most confident
owing to the declarations made yester-
day that many business men will vote
before coming to their offices, which
will insure the polling of the full vote
OF the district.
The reports made at the meeting held
at headquarters yesterday afternoon,
indicate that there viii be few lag

reported that during the day he had
been in conference with voters of the
party, and they had been given the
strongest assurances that no Republic

and give testimony before the execu-
tive. There are so many counts in the
Indictment that there may be some
thing sensational in the matter when
1t comes out finally. There are only
two or three cases. which are so well
known that they may be discussed. One
OF them is the case OF Wong Leong,
whose sufferings have been those OF the
mind. and may yet be those OF pocket.
Wong Leong was one of the chief Of
tenders. but owing to the fact that his
immediate family is in this country. of
which he has been a citizen for many
years. the Chinese authorities must
needs take up the matter of making
their reprisals upon the Wongs. There
are some 5000 Wongs, and the first
thing done was the seizure of the an
cestral shrine. 1t is alleged that three
times was this done. and each time
the family was taxed for it's redemp-
ton The total sum collected in fines
for the release OF the temple was $3.50.

against the consul is that OF extor.ion.
