CHICAGO GETS FLAG
DETROIT DEFEATED IN FINAL CAME OF WORLDS CHAM
 PIoNsHlP SERIES.
TOTAL RECEIPTS FROM GAMES ssl,s76
Of This Sum the Players Get $46, ,00o and the Owners and National Com mission s48,o0o--The Games Were
 cleanIy Played--Detroit outplayed at All Points--chicago to Celebrate.

Detroit, Mich. Oct I6.-By defeat ing Detroit Wednesday afternoon ? to 0 the Chicago team of the National league retained It's title as the cham pion baseball team of the world. The present series differed but little from that of last year. In the previous series Detroit managed to get one tie game and went down in four straight defeats. In the present series Detroit snatched one victory out of the five games played.
 The Chicago team, according to the critics, showed superiority in every department of the game in the series as whole. although this superiority was not so apparent on the day that Detroit batted a victory off Pfeisters curves Detroit was handicapped by Schmidt's inability to cut down run ners at second and by the failure of her heavy hitting outfield to bat at critical moments when hits meant runs. None of Detroit pitchers seemed able to consistently puzzle the Chicago batsmen for even Mullin, who pitched Detroit's only victory, was found for seven hits. Throughout the series Chicago's hitting was oppor- tune. The occasions were rare when with men on bases and runs needed. a Chicago batsman was not there with the needed hit.
 The games were singularly free from squabbling and on only two or three occasions were the decisions of was 1t necessary for a player to be sent to the bench to inforce discipline and good order. The series, however, created less interest in the two cities most affected than that of last year, if the attendance may be taken as a guide. The paid admissions were only 62,232 for the five games and the re ceipts totaled but $94.976 as compared with $101, 900 last year. The attend ance at the final game Wednesday af- ternoon was but 6.210. with gross re- ceipts of $9.577.50.
 Of the money taken in the players of Chicago, the winning team, gets $27,669, and the Detroit players s1S,- 446. The club owners get s1s,6S1 apiece and the national commission S9,447.
 When the last man on the Detroit side went out Wednesday the pen dulum of victory ceased it's swing be- tween the two leagues. In 1903 the worlds championship emblem went to Boston of the American league; in the succeeding series New York brought 1t back to the National league. In the following year the Chicago White Stockings" recap tured 1t for the younger organization. Last year the Chicago Cubs" brought it back to the National league by de- feating Detroit. But this year the pendulum did not swing back and the flag remains as the proudest exhibits which President Murphy has to dis play at the West Side ball park in Chicago.

Chicago, Oct l6.--The Chicago team expects to add material sum to its earnings by two exhibition games to be played on the Chicago grounds next Saturday and Sunday with the De- troits. President Murphy has an- nounced that all the receipts will be distributed among the players. Co valeski, the left-handed pitcher of the Philadelphia club. who shattered the hopes of the New York team by win ming three games of the last New York Philadelphia series, will be one of the pitchers in the exhibition games and probably will be given the first s1 ,000 of the receipts.
 President Murphy declares the season one of the most successful financially in the history of the Chicago National league team.

NATIONAL PIKE TO HAGERsTOWN
Route Selected for Main State Road
Through Western Maryland.

The Hagerstown Globe, Monday night
6Says:
information regarded as reliable
comes to Hagerstown to the effect that
the State Road Commission has deter
mined that Hagerstown shall be on the
line of the State road to be made in
Washington county. 1t has been prac-
tically determine that part of the State
road in this county will extend from the
Allegany line to Hagerstown oyer the
National Pike. What course will be
taken from Hagerstown to the treder-
j county line has no been been fully
determined, but the impression prevails
that the road will run by Rowland S
Mills and thence in a southeasterly di-
rection toward Myersville.
at can be stated with assurance that
the Ringgold-Harper's Ferry route,
suggested by the County Commissioners,
will not be adopted.
''Those in favor of the road running
through the county from east to west,
and going through Hagerstown, are re-
joicing in the reported decision of the
Roads Commission. 1t is contended
that such road will be of especial ben
eft to Hagerstown as it will bring hun
dreds of touring automobilists through
this city. These tourists, it is alleged,
will ldrop great deal of money here
with the hotels, garages, restaurants
and stores"

TAFT VS. BRYAN.

In recentpublished interview, Major
Randolph Barton, of Baltimore, Dem
ocrat of the oldeschool, speaking of the
nomination of Secretary Taft for presi-
dent, expressed what is in everybody's
mind when he referred to Mr.. Taft's
splendid equipment and training for the
Office. There is a great deal of humbug-
gerry in politics, in political platforms
and in political interviews, but it is not
difficult to tell the true from the false.
Major BartOn's talk rings true" says
the Baltimore News, one of the most
influential independent Democratic
newspapers in the South Like a great
many other Democrats Major Barton
doesn't need time for consideration with
Mr.. Bryan on one side and Mr.. Taft on
the other-the issue is made up. Many
Democratic newspapers are equally out
spoken. The Brooklyn Eagle for in
stance, a newspaper which supports
Democratic candidates whenever it can
do so without stultifying itself, says:
For Mr.. Bryan on no platform what
ever will the Eagle be-
For Mr.. Bryan under no circum-
stances whatever will the Eagle be-
For no platform and for no candidate
whatever of Mr.. Bryan's making or
prescription will the Eagle.be.
The Eagle neither waited for Chicago
to say the foregoing nor is it waiting
for Denver to qualify the foregoing.
The Eagle is historically andllogically
Democratic, wholly anti-Bryan and
wholly anti-Populist.
This is to say, IN the minds of all but
hide-bound partisans Mr.. Bryan has
come to represent socialistic program,
government paternalism. Voters who
ike that sort of thing will support Mr..
Bryan, but there is no reason why
those who do not like it, whether they
are Democrats or Republicans, should
do so. As Mr., Barton says: The DIFF
ference between the2 policies of the
Democratic party and the Republican
party have now so completely disap-
peared that the President as a man is
of greater importance than ever. Com
pared with Mr.. Bryan, Secretary Taft
is safe man for the country. He is
Bryan's superior in experience in public
life, in judicial temperament, and l
think, in political sincerity" That is
the exact truth as the man in the street
sees it. Apparently it is the truth as
Mr.. Bryan sees it. He is constantly
accusing the Republicans of stealing his
thunder and of appropriating his issues.
In the circumstances, the campaign is
bound to hinge largely on the characters
of the candidates VS.. Bryan-and
on that issue the Republicans are ex-
,ceedingly fortunate.
