PHII.ADKIjPHIA, Oct. .-Playlng with
the same sensational speed that marked
their rush from last place to the position
of pennant winners In the National
league, the Boston Braves crushed the
Philadelphia Americans here today In the
first 'game of the world's series by a
score of 7 to 1.
Although the newly constructed base
ball machine of "Miracle Man" fallings
wabbled once or twice, It never loft the

Pitcher Rudolph claahetl through Connie

Victory Well Won.
The victory carer the' two to one Ameri
can league favorites was well won, no
lucky breaks or base ball flukes figuring
in the defeat of tha famous Mack mail
olub. By sharp, heavy and timely hitting
the Braves plied up an offensive lead,
which, couplod with Rudolph's sterling
box work and the general defensive work
of his teammates, left no opening through
which the Philadelphia club's attack
could penetrate.
The Boston team drove Bender, the
Athletics' star right-hander, from tha
mound by terrific bitting, ' whloh the
Braves pleoed together when hits meant
runs. Gowdy was the bitting -star for
th Bostons, getting three safe Mows in
three tlmea at bat. One of Qowdy'a hits
was a double and the other a three
baggor, his third hit being a single
Holds Slacks Spellbound.
Rudolph pitched a game of first water
for his club, when he held the Athletics
spellbound by slow balls which came up
to the plate as big as a toy balloon. The
Athletic could do nothing with hla de
livery. The Boston rooters paraded out
of the grounds after the game led by a
brass band. '

Bender Ioat on Field.
The players of both teams were on the
field before 1 o'clock, with the exception
of "Chief" Bender, who did not emerge
from the Athletic' dugout until fifteen
minutes before the game started. Ha
warmed up alowly, stopping occasionally
to oblige a photographer by posing for
pictures. After the usual prolonged con-
ferenoe of the umpire and Captains
Kvers and Thomas play was called ut
1:05 p. m.
Moran of Boston, the first man up, let
Bender's opening pitch go by for a strike.
The second pitch was a -foul strike, the
third a ball, the fourth a foul and then
he sent up a high foul fly to Mclnnls, and
the Athletic rooters cheered. Captain
Kvers was given a hand by the crowd as
he stepped to the plate and shot a high
fly to Collins, who had to step backwards
to get It. Connolly, tho heavy hitting out
fielder, was next up. He took a strike,
and, after fouling off another, missed
Bender's next offering, and the side was
out.

War Summary
German heavy, rtllltry is
pounding Antwerp, the last re-
ninlnlng stronghold of tlie Bel
gian army, wlilln tlernmn armies
to the west I'V'itlnue the ptrui;l
with (ho French and British n'.lles.
llryonU this little la known of
the developments In Belgium
anil Kranc. The siluntlon at
Antwerp Is In doubt. The cen
sorship which masked the fight
ing there until the Bolivian gov
ernment was compelled to with
draw to Ostend, Is now veiling the
nttnek on the city proper. He-
ports co 111 ing through London re
fer only to events of yer.terdtiy

King Albert Is variously re
ported as leaiilng a part of the
Belgian army out of the city with
the Intention probably of effect
ing a Juncture with tho British
and French, and aa having arrived
at Selstne'.e, a village on tho
Dutch frontier. Refugees from

Holland. They report that the
German guns already have done
much damage in the rlty.
The bombardment of Antwerp's
Inner forta Is said to have begun

The general situation lu the
west has undergone no change,
says a French official announce
ment made yesterday. The
battle continues along the line of
Lena, Arras. Bray-8ur-Simme,
Cbaulnes, Roye and Lasslgny. An
artillery duel Is occurring In the
Woevre district. Otherwise noth
ing of importance on the right or
on the center of the allien Is re
ported by the French.
The Paris announcement says
that Montenegrin troops continue
their advance on Sarajevo, the
capital Of Bosnia. "A similar re
port has been made almost dally
fif many days.
The Austrian War office. In Its
most recent communication, re
ported successes against tho Mon
tenegrins and . a decisive - blow
against the Servian invaders of
Dofinla at Vluhngrad. '

LONDON. Oct. 9. The bombard

says an Ostend dispatch to the Reu-
nter company under date of Thursday.
"The Germans threw incendiary
bombs," the dispatch adds, "with
the result that many parts of the
town between the railway station at
I the south and the Palace of Justice
are in flameB.
"It Is rumored, bore. that. the Ger

THB HAGUE, Oct. 0. (Via Lon
don. )--The bnmbajrdje.nt of Ant
werp's Inner forts and the outlying
parts Of tho city started at 18:30
Thursday morning. At noon the
city was burning In four places.
It Is reportod that inner forts
Nob. 4 and 6 have been silenced. The
exodus of the panic-stricken, people
of Antwerp continues. It is re
ported that the dikes have been
opened.
ION'DON, Oct. . 4"o far ss England
knows this morning. Antwerp, the latest
of the cities of Belgium to be be
lesguered, Is still holding out agnlnst the
German onslaught. King Albert has
wlthdrswn from the city toward Ostein),
where the administration Is now fully
estitlillHhed. but practically the entire
Belgian field army has remained to re
sist, us long as possible, the fire of the
great Clermsn guns, the horrible effects
of which were'msdi. plain at Liege.
The nations opposing Ocrmsny hoped
that tho defenders could hold out till the
allies delivered some decisive blow along
the battle line In France, which has now
almost reached the North sea, and, taken
In conjunction with the fighting whU'h
extends across the Belgian frontier to
the northward of Mile, mskea a glgmntlo
front sprawling like, a snake half across
Belgium and across practically all of
northeastern France. .
The siege of Antwerp and tha battle
of the Alsne are thus becoming moro
closely related, and both Oat-mans and
allies are making the most desperate
efforts to smash through tho ever
lengthening western wings.
It Is contended that the Germans failed
In thelr efforts to drive a wedge through
this region, and the latest Paris commu
nication contends that the situation ts
stationary, though meet violent fUrht
tng continues.
If Antwerp falls It will provs tha In
effectiveness of modern fortifications
against modern guns, for Anta-erp Is the
Isst word in Ingenious barriers.
The sit uat:on on th East Prussian
i frontier
is becoming more like that in
France after the German Invasion and
retreat. Being driven from Poland, tha
Germans are making a stubborn stand,
and with reinforcements from Koenlgs
berg, will doubtless give a battle, which
will determine whether the Germans will
again Invade Russia In this region.
Roundabout dispatches reaching laon-
I don from 1'etrograd say that a new Rus
sian army has arrived at the frontier
near Posen, while another Is marching
toward Thorn.
All reports of the surrender of
Prxemysl sppear to be premature, as
were various reports about the be gin -
I ning of a batt'e at Cracow.
