CHICAGO 2, DETROIT o.
Champions Outclassed
the American Leaders.
Day Was Chilly and Fans Ap-
peared i'm Blankets.

National league baseball team at Ben.
nett park Saturday afternoon won the
worlds championship, defeating the De-
troit American league team by the score
of 2 to 0. 1t was the fourth successive
victory for the Chicago team in as many
days Taking advantage of every slip
made by the local players and running
the bases cleverly, the Cubs scored two
runs in the first two innings, while the
Detroit team did not succeed in getting
one man over the home plate.
1t was disappointing day for the
local team in more ways than one. The
weather was raw and cold, entirely I'M
fit for baseball. The official count of
the attendance was 1870. The tempera-
ture was below so degrees and raw
wind swept across the field throughout
the game. Many of the fans wore
blankets. The sun broke through the
clouds only once and then for only a
few minutes.
Mullin and Brown both pitched well,
| but the Chicago man received stronger
support from the teammates. Brown
was also steadier than Mullin, giving
only one base on balls to Mullins three,
one of which developed into a run in the
first inning There was missing in the
play of the Detroit team again the dash
and vim which carried them to the top
| of the American league and won the
| pennant for them. The local team had
q man on third base only twice during
| the game, and each time Brown held
| the batterS safely.
! In an effort to check the base-stealing
of the Cubs, Manager Jennings sent in
| Catcher Archer to receive Mullin, but
the Chicago men succeeded in stealing
| four bases from him, stolen bases figuI
| ing materially in the scoring of both
their runs.
Jones and Coughlin succeeded in steal
ing bases from King. whose throwing
to bases aided so largely in Chicago's
victory. Chicago scored in the opening
inning. Slegle waited for a base OH

Of infielders then worked a clever dou-
BILE steal. Brown was given base on
balls and the bases were full with only
one out. Evers scored on Slagles
grounder to Schaefer while the Cub
center fielder was put out. Sheckard
ended the inning and the scoring for the
