SUFFOLK, VA„ Oct. 18—4 P.
M.—Vote tame on 256th ballot.
Voting down a motiun to reopen the
nomination! to permit the entry of a
dark horse, the Suffolk convention cast
Ita two hundred ami thirty-seven bal
lot at 1 o’clock Tuesday, and again
took reeesa for two hours, with the j
deadlock over the nomination of a
representative from the Second Vlr- :
glnla district unbroken.
The ballot stood as the first: E. E.
Holland. *0: William A. Young, 63;
Harry Maynard, 17; Joseph Ideal, 7.
For the first time since the con- I
venttoned opened at noon yesterday j
Deal and Holland, both styled ‘Inde
pendents," pooled their strength and
prevented the reopening of the nomi
nation. Young's manager. "Jimmy" ;
Trehy, Norfolk's elty "boss." dlapteas* j
ed at the action of Deal In declining
to come over to Young, tried to pave
the way for a dark horse entry.
Maynard's delegate* were with him,
but the 80 votes were not sufficient. j
l>e»l still Controls.
Deal continues to hold the key to
the situation, declining to come to
the aid of either Holland or the pre
sumed Young-Mavnard combination,
which would become effective at once
If Deal and his 7 votes could be se
cured by Y oung.
There are recess rumors that Hol
land and Deal leaders are nfxr.tnv
Young and Maynard, who ran !n tne

out b> the State committee, on »>-- |
count of rank frauds, are bitter to- i

other hand. Deal and Holland, tf tne j
deadlock continue*, would rather pool
their strength In favor of one or tne
other than to see the nomination go i
to Young or Mavnard. both of whom
until now have been Identified with !

destinies are guided by Senator Tho

"We want two hours to confer. I

This was the first intimation that a

Yeung Men Sore.
The convention baa been In sesalon
but an hour to-day. the morning be
ing devoted to conferences among the
disgruntled parties. The Young ad
herents are especially piqued, believ -
ing the State committee should not
have ordered a new primary, but should
have thrown out only the precincts
where frauds occurred In the Maynard
Young primary.
This feeling accounts for Leader
Trehy's attempt to let In a dark horse
rather than see Deal or Holland, the
•'added starters." win the race.
A nomination must be made by to
morrow night, as the Virginia laws
require that the names of the nomi
nees be filed with the secretary of the
Commonwealth by that time.
Unless either Deal or Holland makes
a sacrifice this afternoon the conven
tion may see another tiresome night of
balloting.
The convention 1* not likely to re
verse Itself on the "dark horse stay
out” decision, as It will take a two
thirds majority to again bring up
Trehy'a plan.

Into their own camp before any one
man received a necessary 84 votes.
At 1:40 o'clock this morning, after
the two hundredth ballot. Mr. Trehy,
Young's manager, laid the blame on
the Holland delegate, which did not
deviate in Its vote on the two hundred
ballots.
Mr. Parker said the Holland dele
gation could not be held responsible
for the deadlock. Enthusiasm was
renewed in the discussion over who
Ig ^responsible for the deadlock and

SI II HE PARK. October 18.—
On die way to Slilbe Park tills
afternoon, a taxicab In which
Kane, Stetufeldt, Zimmerman,
McIntyre and Overall. »t the
Chicago team, were riding, ran
into a mail wagon. It «a« u hard
smash bat fortunately none of llw
! players was hurt ami they reach
ed the grounds only u fen minutes
I after the others. The t ubs were
in doubt as to whether to con
sider the accident a good or bud
omen.
i The second world's championship
! contest between the Athletics and
Chicago Cubs furnished a big attend
ance surprise, the crowd being about
I 6,000 under that ot yesterday. Con
sidering that the home team won the
opener and that to-day was "tailor
made'" from a baseball standpoint, the
i attendance was a k^en disappoint
. ment. The bleacher stands were
again packed and the grandstand and
pavilion tilled, but not more tnan 6,000
occupied the center field. Nearly all
1 of these were crowded back of left
1 . field. Early reports concerning the
' 1 crowding of the grounds proved to
1 be a case of census padding.
Tito Unc-l p.
1 The line up to-day was as follows:
|i Athletics—Strunk. center held;
l.orrt left field: Collins, second base;
.Baker. third base: l»at Is. first base:
! Murphy, right Held; Barry, shortstop;
Thomas, catcher; Coombs, pitcher.
| i Chicago—Sheckard, left Held;
Schulte, right field: Hofman. center
! field; Chance, first base; Zimmerman,
'second base; Stelnfcldt, third base;
| Tinker, shortstop; Kling. catcher;
1 Brown, pitcher.
Picking Best Pi tellers.
While neither Chance nor Mark
, would make ah official announcement
! regarding their gunners, the word
’ passed out from the players' benches
, i was that Coombs and Brown would
( ! do the hurling. Chance was dead set
on copping to-day's game, so that the
' j Cubs might return to their own play
j grounds on even terms. But the Cubs
t realised that they were going up
| against another wonderful man in
I? Jack Coombs, whose favorite pastime
. this year has been in decorating op
posing teams with horse collars.
! In the warming up to-day Jimmy
Dvgert and Big Ed Reulbnch hurled
I the ball with all their might. The
,1 Cubs showed the same happy spirit
as on yesterday, but if one could have
. scratched beneath the surface he
, would no doubt have found that grim
j determination possessed every gray
’ clad player. Bender, the red-skinned
hero of yesterday's battle, warmed up
with the other Athletic twiriers, and
, seemed none the worse for wear,
i The teams will leave to-night at
8:55 over the Pennsylvania for Chi

strike on him. Hofman also walked.
. | The fourth ball caused him to make a
i wild scramble to escape being hit.
! Coombs seemed to be a little nervous,
j though he was taking plenty of titne
i for his work. Chance had lire In his
i eye as he came to bat. Coombs gave
j Chance two balls and Jhom&s walked

Third Inning.
Cubs—-The Cubs began with the top
of their batting list In this inning, with
Sheckard up. For the second time
Sheckard walked. Schulte sacrificed
by a little roller to Coouibs, but Davis '
once more muffed the assist, all run
ners being safe, in an attempt to sac
rifice. llofman popped out to Davis.
Schulte gets credit for a sacrifice hit
just the same. Chance tried to work
Bigler for his base, claiming that the
ball that struck his bat hit him first,
but Rigler would not allow it. Thomas
made a wonderful stop with his bare
right hand of a wild pitch by Coombs,
keeping the runners from advancing.
Chance fanned. Zimmerman flew out
to Ford No runs.
Fp to this stage Coombs had shown
but little of his reputed prowess, the \
Cubs hitting him hard, even though
not safely. j
Athletics—Thomas beat out an in- i
field hit to Stelnfeldth. The official
scorer called it an error by Ctelnfeldt
who came in rapidly on the ball and
was compelled to field it with one >
hand. It looked like a hard bit of t
scoring against Steinfeldt. Coombs
fanned, the last strike being a foul
tip. Strunk rolled one down to Brown,
w hich the miner mussed up. It count
ed as u hit. Brown ran almost to
first to field the ball. Lord hit to <
Zimmerman, who threw to Tinker, i
forcing Strunk. Thomas went to third ! j
Hero a council of war was called by i
Chance, Brown and Kling and Rigler
taking part in it. With Collins up the . ■
situation looked ticklish. Collins hit i
over third, scoring Thomas and Lord. 1 i
The hit went for a double. Lord scored j i
by an unexpected burst of speed. |
though the fielding by Sheckard and j i
Stelnfeldth was not the fastest In the ; i
world. Baker out at first. Two runs, j
With a lead of one run Coombs set
out to hold his advantage, cut loose a ;
fine assortment of speeds, in-shoota j 1
Fourth inning. i
Cutis—Stelnfeldt flew out to Strunk, i
Tinker singled to center. Tinker went I
out stealing. Thomas to Collins. Kline i
struck out. No runs.
Looks ns if Coombs was master of I
the situation and visions of a second I
Athletic victory loomed large.
Athletics—Davis hit to Tinker; <
thrown out at first. Tinker made a
fast play. Murphy fouled out to i
Chance. Barry hit to Tinker, who fum- i
bled; safe at first. It was o hard
chance, but scorer decided to give 1
Barry a hit. Thomas singled to right; i
Barry reached third. Coombs struck i
out. No runs.
Fifth Inning.
Brown got away with an infield ;:
hit which Coombs booted twice. An
error was charged to Coombs in place
of a hit for Brown. Coombs also '
fell down on Sheckard's bunt to the
box allowing Sheokard to reach first 1
and Brown second. Both were, the
hardest kinds of chances and the
methods of the scorer caused some
surprise. Schulte sacrificed to Davis
unassisted. Both runners moved up.
Hofman walked on four straight balls,
tilling the bases. Needham at first
base and Steinfeldt at third yelled
their heads off In their coaching effort.
Chance up—Chance flew out to Mur
phy, who doubled Brown by a per
fect throw to Thomas. No runs.
Strunk fanned for the second time.
Lord singled to right and Collins, the
demon player was next up. Collins
forced Lord at second on a tap to
Tinker who threw to Timmerman.
Collins stole second, beating a perfect
throw' by Kling by slipping under
Tinker. Baker walked. Davis
singled to left, scoring Collins. Baket
took third on the throw In.-Murphy
hit to Tinker and was out at first.
