THE DIAMOND
THE TIGERS TEETH PULLED
Chicago Again Gives Detroit a Good Walloping For the
 Championship. /

Chicago, Oct. 1.-The C~bs art
 into the swing of their best sl ed ant
 when they are going that wa. 1t re
 quires exceptional playing to stoI them. They are out to avenge theil l loss of the worlds championship las
 season, and they took step nearer
 toward that goal yesterday when they
 once more obscured the radiance o
 the champions of the American
 league. It was the third game of the
 series and the most decisive of the
 three. The Chicagoes won, to
 and the series now stands one tie and two victories for Chicago.
 The Detroits fought with all the
 fight there is in them-and they have
 not weakened or curled up in the
 least-to square accounts yesterday l but they were forced to yield to g
 superior game. The Tiger went down
 groggy from the heavy and solidly
 landed blows of the rampant Cub, but
 he went down splitting and hitting back.
 Greater proficiency behind the bat stood out prominently in Chicagos favor in the first two games yester- day. It was better conducted pitch ing department that made the Cubs
 the winners all the way. Reulbach greatly excelled Siever, the Chicago pitcher, firing his curves over the disk with snap and swish that made run getting all but a lost art for the Detroits. The Cubs, on the other hand, soon mastered the left handed pitching of Siever and in due course shattered it for hits and runs that forced Siever out of the game. Killian pitched the last five innings for Detroit and with him the Chi cagos had none the better of the pitching.
 All of the pitchers were nobly backed up. The fielding was error- less, was without quaver or a fal- ter. Joe Tinker was the days most scintillant performer. He bolted out batter after batter by his wonderful work at short. His side partner, Johnny Evers, was the most active handler of the baton of the day, his ash changing into the ball for brace of two baggers and single. The at tendance was not up to the mark. It was chilly and the impression is get ting about that there is no stopping the Cubs now.
 One, two, three, the batsmen ot both teams crumpled and retired be- fore the pitching in the first inning. That also was the case with Detroits in the second, but for Chicago run was earned on doubles by Steinfeldt and Evers. The Chicagos rested in the third, only to open up again in the fourth. Kling padded to first on a safe splash to right and Evers nov ed him up base with safety to the same meadow. Schulte crowded a single to center and King drifted home. Evers tried to take third on the hit and was run down by the wideawake Detroit fielders. -
 Tinker more than did his share wit hthe whaleof drive that went to the left field fence for three bases and scored Schulte. Reulbach singled to right and scored Tinker. The De- troits made their first good bid for a run in the fifth, when a hit by Ross man, a base on balls to Coughlin and a sacrifice by Schmidt put men on second and third with one out. b double play disposed of this danger. o'Leary caught the ball squarely but lined to Tinker, who stepped on sec ond and doubled up Coughlin.
 In the second half of the fifth the total of tallies grew into five. Chance hit for two bases and scored on Steinfeldt's hit. The Detroits made their only run in the sixth and but for a double play would have made more. Killian singled. Jones walked and Schaefer trundled grass er to Steinfeldt' on which a brisk double play was made. Crawford single and Cobb followed suit and Killian home. The Chicagos ! could not do anything with Killian | after the fifth and were not near to | scoring. The Detroits had men on 1ases in the seventh and ninth in- lings. but the local teams defence both in the outfield and infield was lirtight and rockribbed and the base 'unners could make no substantial progress The battle will be resumed |
