NEW AMERICAN LEAGUE RECORD.
Four No-hit Games Are Pitched by
Young, Smith, Joss and Rhoades.

| After going two seasons without pitch.
| ing no hit game, American league
! twirlers set new record this year by
| pitching four games without allowing a
! safety. That is more than ever before
were recorded in one organization in a
single season. Better than that, the
worlds record Of shutting ont team
without letting baseman reach first
base was tied "Cy" Young of Boston
Rhoades and Joss Of Cleveland, and
Smith of Chicago are the American
league pitchers who worked in complete
games of nine innings without allowing
hit this year To Joss Of Cleveland
belongs the honor of equalling the best
possible performance on the slab that
OF retiring ~ men in succession without
letting one of them to first. Joss per-
formed that feat against the White Sox
and made ii all the more remarkable By
doing it in the thiekest of the American
leagues sensational finish, thereby tax
ing a game by a score OF ! TO 0 away
from Walsh of the Sox, and that game
would have meant a championship for
the Sox ii Walsh had won it.
Only once before since the pitcher was
moved back has that record been made,
and "Cy" Young, who pitched a no hit
game in his 42d year, did ii in 1904.
When the dean of the Boston pitching
staff shut out New York without hit
this season it was the third time he had
accomplished that feat, but in two Of the
games batsmen reached first. Frank
Smith made his no-hit mark against
Philadelphia and it was the second time
for him, his previous game being against
Detroit. Rhoades blanked Boston only
two DAYS before without single in
nine innings. Aside from these no-hit
battles. the low hit games have not been
as numerous in the American league
this year as last. Whereas there were
seven games last season in which only
one hit was scored of a pitcher, there
have been only five such contests this
year. Young of Boston and Joss OF
Cleveland added to their 1908 laurels by
pitching one hit as well as no-hit games.
Joss did it against Detroit only month
before be BANKED the Sox absolutely.
Young did it against Washington early
in the season.
The two-hit games pitched this year
number q, which is four less than the
record for 1907. Smith accomplished the
feat Of holding Washington to two hits
in 10 innings and Summers duplicated
that mark against Philadelphia in the
same number of rounds Four times this
wear games have been won with two
hits. The Sox did il once against Ora
hanoi st. Louis, Philadelphia turned
that trick on Frank Smith, New York
did It to Manuel and Cleveland was
equally lucky against Gates of Washing
ton. The games in which only three
hits have been made Of a pitcher this
year number only IS, as compared with
So such games last season. Nine times
q team has won its game with only that
modieum Of swats N 1905.

Crowley worked for substantial gains.

Indiana Is Conceded to the Republicans
Nebraska in the Bryan Column
and Kentucky Once More With
the Solid South.
IN N. Y. HERALD FORECAST

New York, Nov. This is the fnal
forecast by the New York Herald Of
the election Of zoos.
There have been few changes in the
outlook since the publication Of the fore.
cast last Sunday, when The llerald's
electoral table gave Taft ESQ votes,
Bryan 1856; doubtful with Republican
leanings, %; doubtful with Democratic
learnings, n.
Basing the forecast of yesterday still
on surface indications and on reports
made by disinterested correspondents in
various doubtful states, The Herald
gives Mr. Taft 800 electoral votes and
Mr. Bryan III.
The states changed from the table OF
last Sunday are six. No state that Mr.
Taft seemed then TO have with reason
able surety has been lost to him during
the last week OF the campaign. No
state that Mr.. Bryan was credited with
last week has gone from his column.
The four states of Colorado, Indiana,
Montana and Wyoming, which were last
week classed as doubtful. with Republi.
can tendencies, are now credite to Mr..
Taft by the correspondents OF The Her
aid
The two states of Nebraska and Ken
lucky, which were classed as doubtful,
with Democratic leanings, are now given
to Mr.. Bryan.
Taft appears to have gained 2e and
Bryan q.
Thus during the week the net apparent
gain Of the Democratic inclinations is.
now given to Mr.. Bryan.
1t yet remains to be seen, however,
whether the peculiar announcement by
John d. Rockefeller that he would sup
port Taft can be turned by the Demo
Gratis into an argument which may swing
some close states back to Bryan.
The Democratic campainers are max
ing use of the incident with all the avid
ity with which last card Is seized upon
in the closing hours of the campaign.
New York mistaken.
Thus during the week the net appar-
ent gain Of the Republican candidate has
been 20 electoral votes. while the net
gain Of the Democratic candi
date has been 81, All observers agree
that Mr. Bryan did not add to his cleo
toral strength by his last journey to the
East. He utterly failed to shake the
electoral vote Of New York from its Re-
publican mornings, and, indeed. during
his presence in the Empire state the
belief was intensified that there is
working agreement between a large mum
her of Democrats and Republicans to
throw the state to Taft and CHAMBER
In the states east of the Alleghenes
and the Appalachian chain the situation
remains much the same as it was a week
ago All reports from New England
show that that section Il strongly for

The labor situation In that state has
much improved for Judge Taft,
Republican Detection in Ohio
There appears TO be some element Of
doubt in Ohio, but the latest testaments
from that state say that It will give Mr.,
Taft plurality Of more than 10000
while Harris. Republican, will probably
be elected governor. Tia Republican
managers have been in desperate frame
of mind over Mr., Tafts home state, be-
cause of the peculiar conditions existing
there and because the expected large
drop in the plurality from 255,000 for
Mr., Roosevelt In 1904 allowed no relia-
bic basis for calculation,
The extraordinary exertion put forth
by the national Republican committee,
which followed Mr., Roosevelt's advice,
and extended helping hand in that
state, has resulted in far better con-
dition, Secretary Root, who carries the
reputation as the spokesman for Mr.,
Roosevelt on political occasions, made
two speeches in the state, one at Gin
cinnati and one at Toledo, both hot beds
for Foraker disgrlIntlement, and 1t Is
believed they did much good.
Indiana Is Close.
Indiana Is going to be close. and two
very careful canvasses during the week
were made by the newspapers associated
With The Herald in this forecast.
One of these reported that Indiana was
safely Republican, but by very reduced
plurality The other said that the out.
come was rroblematical, but that Taft
might get $4,000, The labor situation
in Indiana, as elsewhere. has improved,
in consequence of President Roseyelts
letters, and the result now rests with
the farmers. TIE Republicans claim Of
the state is 10000, the Democratic claim
10000.
The Republicans seem TO be winning
everything in Illinois. Tafts plurality
is likely TO be enormous. Mr.. Chain,
the Prohibition candidate for president,
who Is very unfriendly to Mr.. Taft, says
the Republican national ticket will have
at least 100. 900 excess votes. There has
been a ripping fight over the governor

Nebraska a Democratic, Island.
The contest in Nebraska has been car
ried on with desperate energy, but the

Democratic island surrounded by a Re-

MARRIAGE Amona the Aztecs.

The Aztecs, the most civilized peo-
pie Of the new world at the time Of its
discovery, had a curious marriage Gus
tom. The ceremony was performed
by a priest, who took the hands Of the
bride and bridegroom. asking them If
they would marry.
He then took a corner Of the wo-
mans veil and the mans robe and
knotted them together, and so they
were led to the bridegroom's house. A
fresh fire vas then kindled on the
hearth. and around this fire the priest
caused the bride to 60 seven times.
The welded couple then sat down to-
gether. and so was the marriage con-
tracted. An inventory was also made,
which the father of the bride after
ward retained. Of all the man and
wife brought together, Of furniture for
the house. of land. Of jewels, orna.
ments and clothes. Then II it CHANGED
that the couple were divorced (as was
common among the AZtecs when man
and wife did not agree) they divided
the goods according to the portion each
had brought to the other, both man
and wife having liberty to marry again
whom they pleased. OF the children
Of the marriage the daughters were
given to the wife and the sons to the
husband. 1t was enacted upon pain
Of death that the divorced couple were
not again to remarry.
