CUBS WIN JN THIRTEEN
Defeat White Sox, Six to Five, in
Thrilling Battle.
'CONTEST IS A RAGGED ONE
Victory of 'Nationals Mainly Doe to
Conrase and Coolness of "Din
Jim" Vaughn, Who Stand
1 Fat Before Onslaught.
I CHICAGO, Oct. 8. In a thrilling- thlr-I'teen-lnnlng
battle the Chicago Nationals
, made the standing In the Chicago cham
i plonshlp series one and ono this after
! noon, downing the American leaguer, 6
to 6, before 29,368 "persons. The victory
of the'Cubs was dije mainly to the cour
age and coolness of "Big Jim" Vaughn,
who' refused to give way before the vig
orous attack of the south aiders.
The game was a ragged one and poor
plays were as Important factors in It as
I good ones. Though Clcotte was ham
mered hard, ho might have lasted If
some poor playing back of him had not
' been bunched In the fourth round a dis
astrous Inning for the White Sox. In
that Inning Chappelle, whose timely hit
In the eighth pushed Chase over with the
tlelng run, let loose a wild throw that
struck the grandstand; Schalk muffed a
throw' from Lord that let In' a run and
Bodle, later delivering an opportune sin
gle, misjudged Archer's short fly so
badly that two runs counted on the hit
and the Cub catcher drew up at second.
Singles by Bvera and Sohulte and a safe
bunt by Zimmerman had opened the In
ning, which ended only after the west
eiders had scored four runs.
Dens Succeeds Clcotte In Fifth.
Bern succeeded Clcotte in the fifth after
Xach's safe drive, a pass to Overs and
Sctiulte's hit scored the former, and after
.that he pitched a great game until" the
1 thirteenth. Then Zimmerman singled,
Baler walked. Good filed out and Brld-
well was passed. With the bases full
Archer shot a drive into left and Zimmer
man counted the winning run, Saler be
ing caught at the plate on the throw-In.
The Sox bunched sir hits In the fourth
for three runs. Lord made the first of
them and In trying to score from second
en Bodle's single a moment later collided
with Zimmerman In rounding third base.
To Umpire CLoughlln, as well as to most
of the spectators, It looked like a deliber
ate attempt at Interference by the Na
tional's third baseman and Lord was al
lowed to score.
Score Tied In Eighth.
1 Hfrers fumble gave Bodle a life in the
sixth and Collins hit and two Infield
(outs gave the American leaguers their
I "fourth run. They tied the score In the
eighth. Chase opened the round with a
single and Bodle laid down a perfect sac
rifice. Collins" fly to Leach was too
amort to help, but Chappelle drove out
khAneeded hit and Chase scored.

In the opening game today of the series

The teams, which finished eighth In

derful exhibition In the field behind great

when his rival made a wild throw to
second base to catch a runner. .The Na
tionals secured but one hit oft the
Browns' elongated hurler, but the blow
did not figure In the scoring.
Alio run was the result of a base on
balls to Whltted. O'Leary then hit 'to
Wellman. who threw to center field try
ing to get Whltted at second, and the
flatter' toolt third while O'Leary was
safe on first Wlngo rolled to Wares,
who tossed htm out at first, while Whit

The Comlskey-McGraw aggregation of
ball players touring the world this winter
will pais through Omaha about October
going out to the bustling little burg
of Superior. Neb., which has put up the
required guarantee of 11. COO for a game
The guarantee proposition was offered
Pa Rourke for a game at nourke park,
but Pa declined It.
Pa turns down the proposition simply
as a matter or Duswess, i raring mai, in
view of his experience with crowds the
last season, the fans might not rally to
his support on this occasion.
Blue Rapids, Kan., a town of 1,600
Dopulatlon Is another point that hai
come to the front and offered the re
quired $1,000 and 75 per cent of the gat
receipts for one of the games when the
team makes Its Junket. Officials of the
town have notified the Union Pacific of
the offer and have asked that arrange
ments be made for running special trains
into Blue Rapids the day of the game.
At headquarters it Is learned that be
sides Omaha, the proposition of the
Comlskey-McQraw aggregation was
turned down by Des Moines, Sioux City,
St. Joseph, Kansas City and Denver, the
sports of these cities not feeling safe In
taking the chances on putting up the
guarantee and getting out whole.

POLO GROUNDS. NEW YORK, Oct. 3.
-The New York Giants and the Phila
delphia Athletics, pennant winners of
the National and American leagues.
crossed bats here this afternoon In the
third , contest of the world's base ball
serles Thirty-five thousand persons, un
dismayed by a constant threat of heavy
rain, swarmed the vast concrete stadium
to view the struggle. Kach team, with a
victory to Its credit', was determined to
win the day's game to obtain what the
ball players call "the Jump on the other
fellows."
"You know luck breaks better for the
leading team," tatd Larry Doyle of the
New Tork Nationals, "and that's why we
will be out there today to beat the Ath
letics."
A soggy field, drenched by hours of
hard rain, slowed up the fielding of both
Giants and Athletics. Water had soaked
through the coverings during the night
and a dozen ground keepers worked from
dawn to game time to dry out the mot
ture. Gallons of gasoline were sprinkled
on the base paths and the early specta
tors saw what appeared like the sart of
a prairie fire. The ground was then care
fully sanded and the puddles In the out
field were sponged up.
Umpire Rlgler Inspected the grounds at
10:30 o'clivck and reported tl diamond
in shape to play It there was no more
rain. The gates were Immediately opened
and a fits of weather-anxious spectators,
that stretched for four or five blocks
away from the entrances, passed Into tho
unreserved stands, scores of women
stood for several hours waiting for the
gates to open. And they were Just as
lively as the men In the rush for the front
row seats.
Comparison of Teams.
"We're a crippled team," remarked
John McGraw grimly, "but we will have
a good club In the field today, as Mack's
men will find out."
The Athletics came to the Polo grounds
with every member in fine playing con
dltlon.
riuea wim rar greater assurance
than on the opening day before the teams
had tested each other's mettle, New York
fans began to flock to the grounds. Tho
wonderful pitching of the great Mathew
on yesterday and the fine way his mates
had rallied to his support and with
crippled team preventing a single Phlla-
delphlan from reaching the plate had
worked wonders with the spirit of tho
club's followers.
On the other hand, Fhlladelphlans were
In no wlso dismayed by the defeat thel
team had sustained In the first game at
Shlbe park. Again, as In the first game
he worked In the 1811 series, the wizardry
of tho veteran Mathewaon had been too
much for the Mackmen, but they and
their partisans recalled that they had hit
him freely on other occasions two years
ago. Tesrau and Demaree, one of whom
McGraw was expected to start today,
are practically strangers to tne wnite
Elephant!.
In number of available!, the superiority
lay with Mack, who had given a season'
hard work for the schooling of Brown
Bush, Houck and Shawkey and by work.
Ing them through when fit and In relays
when the acting twjrler began to show
signs of wavering, successfully woi
game after game In the regular leagu
onion. In quality, however, New Yorkers
olaimed that McQraw was far ahead
with Tesreau, a man who has bee
through the wire of a world's series an
who showed so brilliantly In the few In

grounds, and Demaree, a leader among
this years National league twlrlers.
MeGrarr laj Confident.
"In comparlton with what our oppon

Connie Mack was less explicit, but ap
parently he had no fear of the outcom
"We are not a bit discouraged by our
defeat." he said.
The Giants with the mighty Matty

coat of white wash got away with yester

Injured this process early In a game
would compell the substitution of one

ley, whose nerves the speody Athletic
runners might try Reverely.
Merklr Horn Flnv Work.
Merkle started out to hit well In this
series and ho la an experienced first
sacker, which George Wiltse Is not, al
though this fine fielding pitcher gave a
plendld account of himself at Shlbe
Park, saving the game for the Giants
by his skillful handling of taps by Lapp
and Plank In the ninth Inning.
Altogether the general batting and base
running and probably the defensive
trcugth of the Giants Is lessened by the
Inability of the crippled trio to play.
As the series stood this morning, how-
over? even with the Giants' crippled team,
the advantage at tho start looked to
many close observers of the play to be
with the National leaguers. They at least
had one superbly dependable pitching vet
eran against none for Mack, whose prob
able expectation of taking two games
with Bender and Plank before having to
resort to his young twlrlers had been
spoiled by the phenomenal work of
Mathewson.

WEBSTE" CITY TROTTER'S
REMARKABLE RECORD
WEBSTER CITY, la., Oct. 9.-(BpecUL)
George LeValley has Just returned to
this city with his remarkable trotting
horse, "The Deacon," from a tour of the
racing circuits of Iowa, Missouri, Illinois
and Wisconsin. "Tho Doncon" has a
phenomenal record, which probably can
not bo equaled In all the United States,
or, perhaps, In the world. During his five
years of racing this hors has never fin
ished worse than fourth, staying always
Inside the money. And at that he has but
three fourth places In his record. "Tlvi
Deacon" has been much written about In
the big horse and sporting magailnes, the
Horse Review but recently having carried
an Illustrated story on him.
Two years ago "The Deacon" was one
of fifty-six horses In all the United States
that had won fifty-eight heats during his
racing career. This remarkable horse
now, however, has a total of eighty-six
heats won to his credit. His record aa a
world beater, though, will probably stand
on the record that during five seasons h
has never been behind the money, and
that even then he has only three fourth
places to his credit.
His season this year was comparatively
short. Mr. LeValley started him in only
nine races. On these nine, however, he
won five firsts, three seconds and one
third.
Two Games at Beatrice.
BEATRICE, Nob., Oct. 9. (Special.) A

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Oct. 9.-(Speclal.)-The Ne
brnska Athletic board, at a meeting
here thla evening, decided to turn down
tho protest of the University of Kansas
and the Kansas Aggies against Clint
Roes, Nebraska's bl gguard, on color
lines. Secretary Clapp was notified to
immediately wire tho Kansas schools of
the action of the board.
Not n dissenting vote was cast against
the resolutions, which Coach Stlehm him
self drafted, declaring Ross eligible to
participate In the games. The resolutions
called attention to the fact that Nebraska
had never enforced the color line and hod
always allowed colortd players to par
tlclpate. The board took the attitude
that now was not tho time to Invoke the
rule.
Tho sentiment prevailed that both
schools were protesting from Insincere
motives, Nebraska's action may lead to
an athletic spilt between Nebraska and
Kansas, but tho board announced today
that the resolutions passed Indicated Its
final attitude In the matter.
Guy Reed, manager of athletics, has
several letters Indicating that Kansas
had better clear Its own skirts before
taking up protests against players In
other teams.
It Is said the Jay hawkers have several
players whose participation Is questioned.
Practice tonlgHt was light, without
much scrimmage. The varsity scored four
touchdowns In Us turn against the
scrubs.
