 Tie,

New York. Sept, 23-According to the official score of the New York Baseball Club. the local Nationals won today's. game from the champions at the Polo grounds by score of to I.
 The game has been protested by the Chicago club. but President Pull!am denied tonight that he had taken any action in the matter. as he cannot and will not do so until the case has been presented to him in the regular form.
 His official announcement tonight was rumor that he had declared the game tie. Following is the state
 "The New York stock ticker tonight having carried this statement, Harry League. decides today's game between Chicago and New York tie, and am nounced that it must be played over I say such statement Is unauthorized. I have made no decision and will not until the matter is presented to me in regular form"
 The trouble arose in the ninth in- ming when with the score a tie, to l, New York was at the bat. Chicago had made a run in the fifth, Tinker hitting out a home run. McGraw's men had followed suit in the sixth with a run by Herzcg on Steinfeldt's error, BreSnahans sacrifice and Don- lin's single.
 In the latter half of the ninth. with two out. Mccormick on third and Merkle on first. BridweII smashed a single to centre, scoring Mccormick. the batter being declared safe at first. Just then the crowd. wild with excite ment ran on the field and Captain Chance claimed that Merkle did not go to second. He and Evers tried to get the ball there tc claim a force but MeGinnity caught the sphere among the crowd and threw it into left field.
 Merkie Insisted that he had touch ed second and the Chicago players were equally positive that he had not Chance claimed the run did not count. as there was so much Interference that his men could not get control of the ball
 Umpire Emslie was judging the base running and is credited with saying that he did not see whether Merkle went to second or not. ODay later on declared that the run did not count.
 While the players were arguing a small sized riot was going on and a general melee seemed imminent, but the blue uniforms of the police were easily discernible in the midst of the twisting, swirling mass of people on the field and what tn hreatened to be a serious outbreak was quelled with out any one being injured.
 The umpires are expected to make a report to President Pulliam at once.

promptly agreed to work the charm, pro-
viding she could raise 500. She turned the
money over to them and they put $500 with
1t. and the whole amount was placed in
sack, which was given the young woman,
and she was told to wear It around her
neck for four days and the charm would
work in that time.

she removed the sack from her neck and
looked into IT, There was nothing but
paper in the sack and her money was gone.

had left the city the night before. The

mary examination before the justice of the

o'clock and before 10 o'clock they were
loaded two or three deep with children rang
ing in age from 2 to Is years. There were
so many little ones that nine of the
Sisters OF Mercy from the orphanage ac-
companied the party. They made a hasty
trip about the city, scores of the children
never having enjoyed the sensation of rid
ing in an automobile before and wanted
to ride some more, but bfore noon the
entire party was within the gates at the
pleasure resort. The little folks had free
trips on about everything in the park,
which was safe for children to ride; they
saw the old Dutch mill with its splashing
water wheels; experienced the sensation
Of swingout over the hill sides in the big
swings; heard all kinds OF music and some
of them saw monkeys for the first time.
The children saw just enough to make
them want to go to a circus and then
Doc" Waddel happened along and each
child went home clutching a real circus
ticket and next Tuesday the entire party
will see the show.
Though It threatened rain during the
morning hours and did sprinkle at noon,
the children enjoyed the day, as It was
cool and comfortable and the big dinner
served for them was under shelter.
