 Luck was with Shreveport today. That element entered largely into the game and but for it the result might have been different. Aside from the pitching of Stultz and White. the feature of the game was the great work of Norcum in right field. His throw to the plate. cut ting off Stickney. was magnificent. The work of both teams in the field was ex- cellent with three excusabfe exceptions. Burnett's work at the bat was enthusi- astically applauded by the spectators. He got two hits, both of them triple, and scored the only run for Montgomery. The run getting began in the first in ming. Smith singled went to second, when Norcum was hit by pitched ball, was sacrificed to third by Beck and scored on Weikart's fly.

Monterey. Mexico. Sept. 7.-Monterey Is manifesting an unusual spirit of heroism in her efforts to aid Linares. the fever stricken city, short distance southeast of here.

 The authorities here are more rigidly enforcing the quarantine against Lnares. and every effort is being made to prevent yellow fever from reaching Monterey. That 1t does not exist here is regarded as phenomenal.
 The police patrol is kept at the railroad entrances and orders are emphatic to shoot any one who attempts to come into the city unless he has a certificate or is known.
 Dr. Dean has written to friends in Mon- terey from Linares, where he went to attend yellow fever patients, saying that 50 per cent. of the people are in the hands of yellow jack.
 Although the disease is rapidly spread ing. comparatively small per cent. of those afflicted have died, the per cent age being less than half. Linares. Mex ico. is a city of about 5000 people.

 Matters,

Honolulu, Sept. 7.-H. B. Gehr. an ap- plicant for the Kohala, Hawaii moun- tian ditch franchises which will confer the privilege of constructing an immense system of water works, has asked the grand jury to investigate certain charges which he says have been made to his detriment.

 The questions in dispute have been fought in committee during two sessions of Congress at Washington, being finally remanded here for settlement as terri torial business.
 Senator F'oraker communicated the charges to Gehr who informed Governor Dole regarding them and the latter will be asked to testify before the grand jury

 Professor Jenks of the American Com mission was not present, he having sailed for New York on September in order to make arrangements to proceed to China to further promote the Commissions g work
 The plan which has been approved by the powers and approached by the com mission is based on the Dutch plan, which has maintained successfully during the last twenty-five years in Java and re- sembles the new currency system recently begun in the Philippine Islands. It will enable merchants in China to settle their outside purchases in gold in order to avoid the constant fluctuations in the market price of silver. The details of the plan will be determined by China herself and if the undertaking Is successfully accom- plished. those interested believe it will re- suit in great benefit to the commerce of the world.
