About obtained, of which 120 are new to sclence, Every part of Japan was visited in the search and everywhere the most courte- ous treatment was accorded. President Jordan has been engaged by the Japanese Government to write a book on the fishes of Japan, which will be used as a text- book by students of their schools and colleges. The work will be published by the Imperial University. While in Shanghal President Jordan no- ticed that the natives were disposed to be more friendly toward Americans and :lr"ldr-d tows the American fashion of ress. While he belleves the Japanese Govern- menT has the best of intentions, he can- not understand why troops are now being sent to Amoy.

CALL BUREAU, WELLINGTON HO- TEL, WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—Admin- istration officials will watch with interest who was Secretary of the Interior during the military government in Porto Rico. and his son, native Porto Ricans, who have applied for regisiration as voters in Baltimore. Dr. del Valle claims the right to regis- the case of Dr. Francisco del Valle Sr., | ter on the ground that he is & citizen of the United States. The question of his cltizenship is now before the Board of a matter that must be dealt with by the Maryland Legislature. It is possible that it may reach the Federal courts, for if a decision adverse to Dr. del Valle should be made in Maryland he could appeal to the Federal courts on the constitutional question involved. Pending a judicial decision as to the status of the inhabitants of Porto Rico officials of the Government decline Lo recognize them as citizens of the United States. A few days ago a representative of the Hawallan Sugar Planters’ Associa tion called on Assistant Secretary of ths Treasury Taylor to ascertain whether he could legally go to Porto Rico and con- tract with Porto Rican laborers to go to Hawail to work on suzar plantations. He was informed he could not do so. but that if Porto Rican laborers should come to this country he could enter Into a con- tract with them here. Until ihere is a judicial decision to the contrary executive officers of the Government will hold that the act of Congress not only Rico to be citi but, making a ¢ and such ens of the ted States, stinction between them citizens, practically declared that they were not citizens, but wera just what the act declared them to be. citizens of Pgrto Rico, and as sucheentitied to the pro@tion of the Unfted States. GAME ENDS IN A ROW. St. Louls’ Catcher Causes His Team to Lose by a Forfeit. CORRECT STANDING OF THE CLUBS. Pittsby Philadel Boston BROOKLYN, Sept. 19.—To-day's game be- tween the Brooklyn and St. Louls clubs ended in a row in the third Inning, and Umpire Gaff- ney declared it forfeited to Brooklyn by a score of 9 to 0. With Farrell at third, Jones sent a grounder to Wallace. who_ threw badly to the plate. Farreli siid under Robjnson's hands and was Ueclared safe. Robby Jumped up and after throwing the ball at Gaffney rushed up and struck him on the chest with his fist. The umpire swung bis mask at the player, just grazing his nose. He ordered the big catcher out of the game, but he refused to go, and McGrew backed him up. After walting the customary time Gaffney declared the gams for- felted and McGraw withdrew his men from the field. McGinnity and Jones were the opposing pitchers and the game promised to be interest- ing. Brooklyn had scored a run on a homer by Jennings in the first and anot “hird on Farrell's double, MeGinnity fice and the play above mentloned, while St. Touts was blanked, although they gave indi- cations of batting hard, having made five hits to two for Brooklyn.

A OAKLAND, Sept. 19.—One of the most severe earthquake shocks in years aroused Berkeley at 11:5 o'clock to-night and | rumbled with less violence through Oak- land. The college town was so seriously shaken that large frame building could be seen to move. g The shock was accompanied by a deep rumbling and lasted, apparently, more than a minute. The entire town was aroused. ~ Hundreds of frightened occu- pants of residences rushed from their quivering houses. Clocks and crockery were knocked off the shelves, bric chimneys about town were cracked and university grounds. A big pile of lumber at the Southern Pa- cific depot E Berkeley was thrown down by the vere shake. Beyond the severe fright no reports were made of jury to “persons. The shock much lighter in Oakland. It had the ef- fect of a twisting uy al of the ground. TOM BROWN WIKS A BLONDE GIRL By the Force of His Fist He Gets a Medal and a Sweetheart. Tommy Brown won the lady—auburn | hair, cherry lips, pink complexion and all. It was a hard fight while it lasted, two minutes of the first round and the finish being the most sensational part of it. J. P. Jacobs, rival of Brown for the affec- tions of the fair-haired one, was picked as the winner and he looked it for more than 100 seconds. Then Brown ‘“‘soaked” a few stiff ones to the chin of Jacobs and the latter mounted the historic ladder in a sleep that lasted more than ten seconds. Flat on his back dropped Jacobs and he dreamed of the pleasures and joys that might have been. Brown won out and Jacobs went out. Between the two they held the crowd at the San Franecisco Ath- b last night In delirfous excite- Theirs was the last event on the ment. | programme. All the others were fought for prizes only—the last one for a lady and a prize. The lady was hard pressed by the attentions of both pugilists and be- ing unable to decide from their mental qualifications which one she would have she set her admirers to the test of fists. They were both willing to enter the ring to win her favors, so o h was ar- ranged. Brown proved the champion. He now has a medal and a fair-haired girl Flerce and hot were the fights. Each of the first three matches ended In_the third round. Jack Cordell went at Johu Smith in _whirlwind fashion for rounds and a fair section of the third. Then Smith went to the floor and meas- ured his length. Eddle Battler, by a series punches on Charley Witzel's stomach, won a bright sfiver medal. Lit- tle George Fuller. sober and sad, made Ed Devlin regret that they were matched. Fuller punched Devlin until the fight was off in the third. Ed Wiley had sufficient punishment in two rounds to last htm for a while, so Alec Greggains, the referee, made Hugh Friel happy with a breas: ornament. In four rounds of clever fighting Frank ‘Wall got a decision over Jim Little. Billy Jones and Ed Savage then went at It. Savage, who was thickly corpulent in his “downstalrs’ region, succumbed to the tappings of Willlam' Jones. Al Wildson didn’t ltke his man, Gus Salisbury, who | struck him so violently in the eye in the first round that he quit on the spot. The match between Mike Curtin and Tom Hamilton went five rounds and was called @ draw. Curtin is a cousin of “Spider” Kelly, but that is all the relationship ex- isting between them. More Bankrupts.
