Seven Runs Scored Off New York Pitchers While the Giants Were Able to Cross the Plate but Twice in the Sunday Game. Bv H. C. HAMILTON. (United Press Staff Correspondent.) ! On Board the White Sox Special, * Oct. 8.—A happy, laughing team of ball i players rode this train to Now York 1 today. Two up on the Giants after ; their first clashes with the National ] league champions, the White Sox bask- j ed in the sunny smiles of fandom, for' they are just half-way down The trail that leads to the world's champion- ! ship. Everything seemed to favor the Am- | erican leaguers as they approacned ! their two contests to be staged on the ! polo grounds. The prospect of playing ! on an alien field bothered them but j little. They have the knowledge that I John McGraw is short of pitchers and 1 that Clarence Rowland can now af- I ford to take a chance. Cicotte and Fa ber. his two stars have downed the enemy. They are now «able to take a rest. PERRITT MAY BE USED. It wasn't that way with the Giants, •s the Chicagoans figured it. They had witnessed the setting of two suns —those of Schupp and Sallee. They had faced the fearsome shoots of Per ritt and had come off victorious. They know the curves and tricks of Fred Anderson. John McGraw was left helpless from the standpoint of pitch ing strategy. Supporters or the New York club who had figured McGraw would save Schupp to work against the Sox at home were confident the Giants leader wovld not start the young left hander. They believed it meant a start for Rube Benton or Poll Perritt. The latter's showing against the Am erican league champions, while not ex ceptionally brilliant, was surfieient to convince baseball followers that in tne Tight arm of the former Cardinal li«*s the greatest pitching power the Na tional league champions hold. As had been predicted by the United Press the Sox have taken the jump, and the rest of the prediction—that the White Sox would come through with their second world's champion ihip—seems about to be realized. WHITE SOX CONFIDENT. There is favor for the Sox in playing At the Polo grounds, for they have be come accustomed to the home of the Giants. There were some w r ho believ ed the return home would have a cheering effect on the Giants that would amount to more than a mere Jov At coming home. The Giants never played baseball in Comiskey par* and were at some disadvantage. The White Sox's confidence, however, was running wild. Never a member of the team could consider anything but vic tory in two more games. That sort of figuring seems out of fhe ordinary, for McGraw is at the head of a powerful baseball club, one that will go strong with breaks in the luck. He still holds an ace in Slim Sallee, who pitched an Extraordinary game against the Sox In the opening encounter. He still has Benton to fling into the fray, and lie possesses an excellent right hander in Perritt. Dope points to at least one victory for the National leaguers, with a probabil ity that they will take away two games.. Clarence Rowland could send Eddie Cicotte back today. Cicotte is a whale of a pitcher, of which the Giants are • ware. His presence on the pitching mound would have a great effect. How ever, Reb Russell has been showing lots of stuff and is expected to get the call. He would give Rowland the added advantage of mixing it up for the opposition. It was considered improbable that Schupp would get to work again, un less he starts the second of the home games. Schupp, in addition to having riva of Ty a me into his as the day victo ry. Jo» 1 rrings of the and once he nothing on the ball to speak of, ap peared to be a frightened youth. SOX HIT EVERYTHING. Yesterday's bill game from the spec tators' standpoint, was a frightful murder of what had been called a great baseball club. The non-hitting White Sox leaped on everything that watj turned into the pitching box by Mc Graw and made it a terrible day. Schupp wasn't alone in his sorrow. Fred Anderson and the rest of thorn received a Chicago greeting sufficient for anyone. Joe Jackson, slugging Cobb in bygone days, c. old stand-the -spotlight closed on a White Sox three times clubbed off« Giant hurler» for a hit walked, giving him a perfect batting average for the day. Joe's hitting form and the remarkable fielding he has displayed during the series entitled him to at least a runner-up position for hero. And Joe's hitting will mark him for respect from now' on. Jack son. always figured by the Giants a hard nut to crack, is made doubly *o now', for McGraw's pitchers were sent out to pitch to him and they failed. PLAYED STRAIGHT BASEBALL. It was straight clubbing that won the second contest for the White Sox. Their heavy bats went the route, where sacrifices and daring base run ning had been expected to be the heavy factor. They nearly batted around in the fourth inning—the session In which tfcey chased five markers across. Four hits they bunched in the second inning and, pushed over the two runs that tied the score. Red Faber, meanwhile, was going at top speed. He was nicked hard in the second inning and appeared to be on the wày to the clubhouse when his team mates came through with the winning punch. Filled with the confidence that the extra runs gave him. Faber then began to pitch a great game. He had control and smoke. His curve ball >vas so sharp-breaking It had Schalk digging balls out of the dirt as Giant batters swung at the offerings. A mishap in the second was respon sible for one Giant, for it was Robert son's slide that dashed the ball from Schalk's hand and not a bad throw' by J.ackson, who had fielded McCarty's hit. That allowed Hoke to cross the plate with the second run. Starting with Jackson in the se cond inning four of the White Sox singled in succession and Schupp gave up the ghost. Two runs counted. Be ginning with a hit for Weaver in the fourth six of the American leaguers cracked out safeties and five runs cou H ted. But in all the hitting the game af forded there was not an extra base blow registered. The score: J NEW YORK. AB.R m I.PO.A K. Burns.

Michigan Central tr.ain No. 18 arrived here today with the Giants aboard. From Buffalo on, the Giants feel they are among friends, but it was a thick trail of gloom that Was strung across Indiana and Michigan last night. SAW SOMETHING WHITE.

"Ah don' want 'em; ah don' want 'em," was the way the whisk broom wielders greeted the news that the Giants were to board the train, just before pulling out of Chicago. "Any bunch that has taken the lick in's they'se took these lust two days ain't goin* to be free with change," was the porters' philosophy. ALL HOPE NOT GONE. But all is not lost. George Burns, who has two hits to his credit, whistled and conducted a cheer-up party. The twist Lew McCarty's shoulders got yesterday is not serious and he will be able to get back in harness Tuesday if McGraw calls on him to do the re ceiving. Two games in the hole, the Giants realize they are up against it strong. The Soxs' pitching schedule has worked to perfection, while that of the Giants was badly messed up in Sunday's game, Both of McGraw's southpaws have been w hipped. Sallee was nosed out by Happy Felsch, and Schupp, the Giants' best bet, was lambasted and driven to jthe dugout. Then with Anderson and Perritt be fore them, the White Sox showed they lean nick the right handers. Interviewed last night, McGraw was communicative enough to indicate ne would pitch Schupp, Sallee, Perritt, Anderson. Demaree, Tesre.au or all of them Tuesday. FINE WEATHER FOR GAME IN NEW YORK New York, Oct. 8.—Anyhow, the weather wasn't gloomy here today, if Giants supporters were of that cast of mind. Nor was there any dimunition in the demand for seats for the world's series games of tomorrow and Wed nesday. The well known pasteboards were scarcer than pacifists in Ger many, and about as well covered. The few that were still in circulation gave graphic proof of the low purchasing Price of the famous American dollar. The Giants headquarters in the Fifth Avenue building concluded it's distri- I bution of reserved tickets by noon, a ' clamoring crowd seeing the finish. New York's own weather man j phophesied the same zippy October j autumnal weather for tomorrow that | the city was enjoying today. New York hasn't lost It's faith in the j Giants. There was plenty of good solid j confidence among McGraw's support- } ers that back home in their own bail- | I wick the national Jeague champions! would redeem themselves. The tricky White Sox playing field was Mamed for something of the erratic behavior ol the McGraw machine. Huge bundles of White Rox money were in sight today and the prepon deranee was so strong that some bets were made at two to one odds on the Chicagoans. Just the same McGraw and his war riors will have a goodly welcome home late today, plenty of the lovai ones figuring that under the stimulus of home support the Giants will come back strong. LIGHTWEIGHTS ARE READY TO TRAVEL FAST PACE FRIDAY Jack Carpenter and Lee Morrisey Training for Their Battle—Idaho Falls Boy Boxes at Salt Lake. A wireless from the training camps of Jack Carpenter and Lee Morrisey, the lightweights who are to meet Fri day night at the Liberty Gardens, con tains the information that the two principals are ready to go the limit at as fast a pace as has ever been set in the garden ring. The supreme confi dence with which they view the battle, his inspired their supporters to back them to the limit. Neither is taking a chance. They are trimming down to a shade under 135 pounds so they will be able to have every ounce within the limit to place behind the blows they expect to land. Carpenter especially is working overtime. lie is now con fident he will be in better form for the Friday night mill than he has been for months. Jack will need all the form he can develop and it will prove fatal for him to attempt to get through the ropes unless he is hardened to travel 10 fast rounds. BOXES McDEVITT TONIGHT. Tonight Morrisey meets one of the crack lightweights of the Pacific coast, McDevitt. He istouted as one of the best boys ever developed in San Francisco and if Lee can outpoint him he will take a rise in lightweight stock. Fans at Salt Lake are looking forward to a treat when those two boys meet and if McDevitt boxes Morrisey they will not be disappointed. Immediately following the Salt Lake match Morrisey will return to Boise, taking up the balance of the week to train for his go with Carpenter. Mor risey keeps in fast form and will enter the ring Friday in excellent shape to take on Carpenter. The Brandon-Leonard match for the preliminaries is also attracting atten- tion for both are good hoys. There will be one or two other preliminaries. The boys for which have stiii to be picked. The entire program promises to be good and no doubt will attract a big house. ------ The Stephens orchards will endeavor to handle at least two carloads of ap ples daily. A capable lidder could find employment at large wages. Adv. 014 i I j I I Pacific hotel dining room now open.

In fact, I should be quite willing to credit the proceeds to your personal account." Constance glared at him. "You are not possibly serious?" "Quite. I admit that, in all probabil ity, the cost per diem of this animal la not a largo item. It is the principle to which I object. There are a thousand and one trivial sources of expense In this household. "I am checking them as I encounter them. Although none may be great In itself, the effect of each Is to inculcate wasteful habits and destroy a sense of true economic values, while the total expense of all is a very considerable sum. I am here to do my duty by your father." "Do you know that my father gave me this dog?" inquired Constance tri umphantly. The efficiency man did not seem abashed. "I am not concerned with the source of origin of any given thing In this house,'' he said. I merely consider it as a desirable or necessary part of the establishment.'' "Suppose my father had given me a St. Bernard or a Dane instead of a Pomeranian?" observed Constance with fine scorn. "Do you know how mych St. Bernards eat?" "1 have never had occasion to in quire, but 1 presume I could easily learn,'' answered the efficiency man so gravely that Constance was uncertain whether she was being treated serious ly. "Well," she said. "If you ever at tempt in any way to interfere with my «log—mine, understand—I shall imme diately get several very large dogs and establish them in this house. Then you will have a chance to find out exactly how much they eat. TÄe idea! Why, even you will have to «admit that De mosthenes is more economical than a Great Dane!" "Probably true. Miss Brooke. Never theless, if you persist in keeping this animal. I shall ask you to maintain It nut of your allowance. 1 am not justi fied in permitting it to draw supplies from the general account."
