there was large selling today, not only
in stocks in which there had been open

was resistance offered to the decline

TROPHY CUP
Is Won by Brooklyn Over Pittshurg in the
Fourth Game.
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. 1S.1Brooklyn
is the owner of the beautiful $500
hronicle-Telegrap trophy and car
rIes away half the gate receipts Of the
four games necessary to decide their
supremacy over Pittsburg. The cham
pions demonstrated throughout the
series that they are deserving of the
league pennant, by playing better ball
in every way than their opponents,
who finished second in the race. In
only one game Of the four played did
Pittsburg look to be in the same class
with Brooklyn. That game was play
ed yesterday and a victory so encour-
aged the :'ittsburg PLAYERS and local
fans that the 1886 people who attend
ed the game today expected to see the
victory repeated. The Pittsburg men
went at their work today with great
determination, and every point was
worked to the limit by both sides up
and a tumble by Lever netted three
runs to Brooklyn. After that the To-
Gals seem to lose snap, and while they
played hard to win, it was conceded
that the home team was outclassed.
WaGdell was put in the box as a for
lorn hope, but the handicap was too
much. McGinnity won his second
game in the series by keeping the hits
well scattered and receiving the fin
est kind of support. Gross was es-
pecially effective by spelling hits by
getting in the way of numerous balls
speeding toward left field making
wonderfully fast throws to Jennings.
The hronicleTelegraph trophy will
be presented to the Brooklyn players
at the Alvin theatre tomorrow night
by Mayor Diehl.

School for Paris Cabbies,

There are coachmeu and cOachmen,
the newest type being the conductor of
the automatic car. The city Of Paris
secures his proper training at Auber-
villiers, where the Compagnie General
des VOltures has its school. A circular
track OF 700 meters In extent serves as
the training ground. 1t Is what the
French call accidente-in one place fat
and macadamized, elsewhere gently
sloping upward. or falling in abrupt
descent; here paved with wood, and
there with stones, while little further
on the road is up" and sand heaps,
loose bricks and broken glass threaten
the tyrO and the tire. The wayfarers
who are dotted along the route must be
''humored and not druv." Fortunately,
they are not flesh and blood. They are
merely metal dummies propped up by
a stick from behind and ready to fall
at a touch. Each figure presents the
familiar personalities Of the Paris
streets-bourgeOis, soldiers, scorchers,
Tommy playing marbles. and the cur
that goes for every wheel. There also
are nurse. baby and go-cart. The cast
iron baby shows complete Indifference,
which also is true to life The track of
Aubervilliers is nothing II not realistic.

Barrister and Solicitor,

Lawyers In England are divided into
two great classes-counsellors or bar
risters, and attorneys or solicitors. The
cOunsellOrs or barristers, as these terms
imply, confine themselves to the actual
trial and argument of cases in open
court, and to consultations with attor-
neys or solicitors who represent the
clients. 1t is contrary to professional
etiquette for a barrister to confer or
consult directly with his client. The
attorneys, or solicitors, as they are all
now styled, see the client, take his
statement, gather the facts, and put 1t
all down In writing In what is called
1.-The brief" The brief is then handed
by the solicitor to the barrister, with
his retaining fee, and thereupon the
barrister and solicitor confer; the bar
rister gives his advice and opinion, and
II the case goes to trial he does all the
work in court, such as examining and
cross-examining witnesses, and argu-
ing or summing up the case before the
court or jury. The solicitor does not
speak in court at all.
