-~-APTKBNooN oAMR.
A morning crowd Of fair proportions had
the aorTowful experiences OF seeing the New
Yorks beaten by che PhIladelphias yester-
day but In the afternoon as big an attendance
as the Polo Grounds ever fenced In saw the
New Yorks win lmpressivaly all the way.
There was not room enough In the grounds
to accommodate all OF the perfervld cranks
who took advantage OF the holiday TO 90
a-MRying TO the ball park. The gates were
ehut down at twenty minutes after 3 O'Clock.
for the seating capacity Of the arena was then
full to the bursting point. The closing OF
the gates In the face OF clamoring hundreds
OF the outside was not without its difficulties.
The panel OF one of the 90 cent admission
doors was smashed In by the pressure from
without.
IL was a delightful day Cor baseball. and
all went well enough In the afternoon until
there was q sudden overflow from the tightly
Jammed denlnens OF the left field seats. A,

below. and In another second scores were
following the lead of this Intrepid pioneer.

II was only u few minutes before game
time when the cataract from the altitudinous
bleacher broke loose. and as the field was
quickly overrun there was II delay Of half
an hour before the crowd was sufficiently
in subjection for play to begin. AZ to the
wonderful wire screen that WAS to hold people
in check, dozens clambered over that from
the right field bleachers and Joined those from

screens. and for those who did not take the
hurdle easily there were willing male hands
TO assist in clearing the barrier.
1t was not long before there was a solid
ring OF spectators all the way around the field
in front Of the stands and back field fence.
Those who seated themselves on the turf
in the outfield were all right and made no
trouble. but there were many among those
who rushed for vantage points near the front
of the grand stand who cared for nobody
but themselves. They would neither cit
down nor fall back. What few uniformed
peace preservers there were on hand were
altogether unable to force the crowd back.
The crowd was nearly up to the base lines
and was very stubborn about relinquishing
an inch Of ground. though to play while they
were there was out OF the, question.

but there we're not enough persons to ac-

was the agent that at length induced the
serried ranks to retreat u few yards. Phil
Seixas went out ON the field and informed
the people that there would be no game until
they made room for one. He did a good deal
toward convincing them OF the need Of moving
