DETROIT, Oct. 14. "I want
to Bay for the Detroit club that
they played clean baseball, they
played fast baseball, they play-
ed it like gentlemen and sports-
men. I can not say too much
in praise of their sportsman-
ship and courtesy. Throughout
the entire series there wasn't 4
even a small dispute between
the two teams, the friendliness
existing during the five days' in-
tense rivalry all that could be 4
desired. Manager Jennings has 4
a great team. I think the Chi-
cago team is greater and firmly
believe that no team in the
world could have beaten us with 4
the kind of ball we played dur-
ing the world's championship 4
series." Frank Chance, mana-

WON
(By Associated Press)
CHICAGO, Oct. 14. By defeating
Detroit this afternoon 2 to 0, the
Chicago team of the National league
retained the title of .champion base
ball team of the world. The present
series differed but little from that of
last year! The Chicago team, accord
ing to critics, showed superior base
ball in every department of the
game in the series as a whole. De
troit was handicapped by Schmidt's
inability to cut down runners at sec
ond, by the failure of her heavy hit
ting outfield to bat at critical mo
ments when hits meant runs. None
of Detroit's pitchers seemed able to
puzzle the Chicago batsmen, even
Mullin, who pitched Detroit's only
victory, being found for seven hits.
The games were singularly free from
squabbling and only on two or three
occasions were the decisions of um
pires questioned. At no time was it
necessary for a player to be sent to
the bench to enforce discipline and
good order.
The paid admissions were only
$62,232 for the five games and the
receipts totalled but $94,976 as com
pared with $101,000 last year. The
attendance at the final game this aft
ernoon was 6210, with gross receipts
of $9577.50. Of the money taken in
the Chicago players get $27,6,69 and
Detroit $18, 446; the club owners
$19,681 each, and the National com
mission $9497. A feature of today's
game was Schmidt's recovery of his
throwing arm, which had not been
working well during any previous
game. As a result Chicago was not
able to steal a base on him. Overall
for the second time pitched a master
ly game. Only three hits1 were made
off him. He was wild at times, giv
ing four bases on balls, but on the
other hand his strikeouts numbered
ten.

A Million Dollar Concern to Sell

Him To Operate in
Death Valley.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14. F. M.
Smith, the borax king, is to have ser
ious opposition In the field of com
merce over which he has long held
solitary sway. A new $1,000,000
corporation, known as the Sterling
Borax company, has been formed and
has acquired valuable property in
Death valley close to those which
have yielded a fortune for Smith. It
was announced that while the new
company had not been organized with
the express purpose of fighting
Smith, it was intended as a formid
able rival.
The new concern comes into exist
ence in the form of a consolidation of
the American Borax company, the
Stauffer Chemical company and affili
ated corporations. The merger in
cludes the Brighton Chemical com
pany, which is a branch of the Ameri
can Borax company, and the Frazier
Borate Mining company and Thomas,
Thor, Kildeson and company of Chi

been connected with the Stauffer
company.

TAFT TO
GET VOTE
OF LABOR
WHEELING (W. Va.), Oct. 14.
Judge Taft today concluded his three
days' tour of Ohio. Tonight he is
sued, a statement in which he stated
what he thought of the situation.
Taft says in his opinion the attitude
of labor toward the Republican party
has been misrepresented quite as
freely as that of the party and the
candidate toward labor. The Judge
says he finds no reason to believe la
bor will divide other than on the
lines that have heretofore divided it.
The situation in Ohio is entirely sat
isfactory and no one has a reasonable
doubt that the Republican majority
will be a substantial one.
Tonight at this place Taft address
ed an immense audience representing
labor and to whom he made his labor
speech In full.
English concern, which recently took
over the Palm Borate company. The
British company has begun the erec
tion of a $75,000 plant in southern
California to treat boric acid ore.
When completed the plant will be
able to treat 100 tons of ore a day.
By its acquisition either company
would be able to add great strength
to its position.
The Sterling company has mines at
Lang, in this state, and Ventura
county as well as in Death valley. Its
promoters claim that its fields are as
large and rich as those owned by
Smith. Its main office is located in
the east. The directors, who are for
the most part eastern capitalists, are
as follows: Thomas Ghorkildson,
Charles de Guigne of San Francisco,
John Stauffer, H. . Matther, and E.
Dawes of the firm of Dawes and My
ler of Pittsburg.
The borax industry of California
has been an extremely profitable one
for the last twenty years. The pro
duction for twenty-one years has
been 767,469,000 pounds, valued at
17,456,334. The production in 1890
waB a little more than 6,000,000
pounds. In 1907 it had increased to
106,000,4)00 pounds.
AN OIL STRIKE
AT MONO LAKE
CARSON CITY, Oct. 14. Word
was brought to this city Tuesday
night of a good strike of oil in the
Mono lake district just over the state
line in California. According to the
meager reports received here a strike
has been made at a depth of about
300 feet in the district and the new
well is flourishing at the rate of forty
barrels the day. The oil . is also a
rich lubricating oil and Is " conse
quently valued at about $8 the bar
rel, owing to this feature. T
Work has been la progress in the
Mono district for about six months,
but drilling has not been constantly
going on. The work has been of a
sort of desultory nature, a little drill
ing and then a long cessation from
labor. Consequently the district has
not been exploited to any extent.

STOCKS ARE

NEW YORK, Oct. 14. The stock
market took on all the aspects of a
narrow, professional affair today.
Varying fluctuations were meaning'
less and reflected no convictions on
the part of those responsible for the
bulk of the dealings, but merely an
attempt to effect a . movement
of prices for trading purposes. The
volume of the day's transactions was
meagre and the constant shifting
current of prices demonstrated a
feeling of hesitation and uncertainty
on the part of those taking part in
the market. . Harriman's Pacifies
were affected somewhat by reports of
intended prosecutions by the govern
ment to recover public lands in Ne
vada, including railroad grants.
