The coming series, therefore, has been
rightly named the Worlds Championship
Series, for they will be played
by the two leading teams in the
representative base ball organizations In i
the world, comprising the cream OF base
ball talent. The series will consist Of
seven games-6ve games to constitute q
series. The first three games will take
place upon the Chicago grounds October
is, 10 and 20, and the next three upon
the Brown Stockings ground at St. Louis
October 81, 90 and 2S, Should the
seventh game be necessary to decide
the championship, IL will take place at
some point not yet decided upon, but
wherever may be mutually agreeable to
the two cubs. Since the arrangement
for the series has been completed, Presi-
dent Spaldlng has been 10 receipt of APP
plicatlons from many points DESTROYS OF
having the seventh game take place ia the
city from which the respective applica-
lions have come Des Moines, Rock
Island, Milwaukee, Cincinnati. Cleve-
land, Indianapolis, st. Joseph and many
others have offered to guarantee big
crowds, should the clubs arrange to play
one game there. We In Chicago, how
ever, do not believe seventh game will
be necessary, although our people realize
the fact that the Whites are going against
very crack ball club, and that the boys
will have to play ball II they want 10 win
The seat of dissatisfaction in the games
between these two clubs last Gear was in
the work of the umpires, end this year both
President Spalding and President Won
der Abe have taken every precaution
against q repetition OF last years difficult
7, aps, and have adopted every means
within their power to secure only efil-
cient and what they believe will be salts
factory umpire talent To this end
Mr.. Spslding has selected from the Amer
lean association corps Of umpires Messrs,
McOuade and Kelly, and President Won
der Abe from the league corps Messrs
Quest and Powers, the four 70 constitute
board OF umpires, from which the otlici
etipg umpire will be chosen by lot JUS
before each game is called. BY this meant
It Is thought that the admirers of boil
teams, as well as the teams themselves
will be satisfied. The men chosen hav'
given thorough satisfaction in their worl
during the past season, and it is believed
that their decisions will be fair and i'm
partial. With such spirits in the field o.
Latham, Bushong and Robinson on one sid
