CHICAGO CHAMPIONS AGAIN
CUBS CAPTURE THE FIFTH GAME
FROM DETROIT TIGERS.
Decrease Of Interest This Year Shown
by Attendanoe-Teams Share OF
Gate Receipts Is S46.115.

Detroit. Mich - By defeating De.
troit Wednesday afternoon. TO O.
the Chicago team of the National
league retained its 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 10 get one tie
game and then went down in four
straight defeats. In the present series.
Detroit snatched one victory out OF
the Ave 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 won.
Detroit was handicapped by
Schmidt's inability TO cut down run
ners at second and by the failure OF
her heavy hitting outneld to bat at
critical moments when hits meant
runs. None OF the Detroit pitchers
seemed able to consistently puzzle the
Chicago batsmen. for even Muilin.
who pitched Detroit's only victory, was
found for seven hits throughout the
series Chicago's hitting was opportune.
The occasions were rare when. with
men on bases and runs needed. a Chi.
cago batsman was not there with the
needed hit.
The games were singularly free from
squabbling and on only two OF three
occasions we're the decisions OF the
umpires questioned. At no time was
Il necessary for a player to be sent
TO the bench 20 enforce discipline and
good order. The series. however.
created less interest In the two cities
most affected than that OF last year.
II the attendance may be taken as a
guide.
The paid admissions we're only g..
232 for the five games and the re.
ceipts to,aled but 1876. as compared
with $10i 900 last year. The attend
ance at the final game Wednesday

the fierce uphill battle he ntood on the

best efforts. No success OF the rival
