Atlanta, Ja., Aug. so.--(specia1.)-- John McNakin was the hero of today's game with the Pelicans. and Spartan burg John was cheered to the echo when he won his game from the New Orleans club. Score: Montgomery, 5; New Orleans. {. It was rather siop- oily played game at best, however, as ed poor support Busch made three err TOTS, Mullaney one, and deserved an other. and sohwartz another. while for the home club, Beck. Sullivan. Holly shape. oldring played in right held for the visitors and made a beauty catch up against the fence, which .eiic- tied much applause from the crowa; Tn gomery in all three games and has been roofing for them to win. They were doing even more roofing today than of Atlanta and has more friends here than any pitcher on the local team.
 Brouthers was the center of attrac- tion at third base. On one occasion. was sent at the big leaguer of the fu- ture. He slapped 1t down. played with Williams for few seconds. forcing him back tS second ,n ana then capgs. nos. sible margin. It was brilliant work and was appreciated. Bunched Pelican errors made possible the first three runs made by Montgomery, while bases on balls. a double steal nicely worked with Brouthers leading and a double by Old ring, brought in the two runs in the third inning. The Pelicans never quit and throughout the game played as if they were leading with all the assur- ance of pennant winners. It Is the pretty part of the Pelican work that they never give up. That Montgomery looks better than the Atlantas Is the general opinion of the Atlanta fans, and there are many lovers of the game who would like to see McMakin wearing q home uniform once more. Molesworth played stupidly, getting caught on body was out and a score should have been made with ease. The fat center fielder walked three time during the game.

SENIOR DrAz TO LEAVE.
Uruguay VIII Probably Cease to Have
 ReureaentatiVe Here.

: NEWEtUEWNNtHVU KAUNUs
 Washington, Aug. 30.-Senor pr. Eduardo Acevedo Diaz, Minister from Uruguay, is about to leave Washing ton for Uruguay and 1t Is doubtful if he will return to this city. He has called upon Acting Secretary Loomis to say farewell and will sail in day or two from New York.
 Senor Diaz came to Washington in 1904, being the first Minister to repre- sent his country here for a number of years. Probably revolutionary troubles in Uruguay made 1t expedient in the judgment of the Government of that country to have an active representa- tive in America, but peace has been completely restored and 1t Is improb- able that Senor Diaz will be immedi- ately succeeded in Washington.
