Pittsburg Takes Sensational Game
Detroit Beaten in Third of Series, to 6Wagner All
 Around Sar-Bush and Delehanty Also Do Great Work with the Bat-4igers Fight It Out to the Last

Detroit Mich,J Oct. 11.-Pittsburg defeated Detroit by the score of to here today in one of the most sen sational and fiereely contested games ever played in d worlds championship series, and the National league cham pions are correspondingly jubilant. The Detroits showed in the final innings of the contest, however, that they are a far from hopelessly beaten team. Weather conditions were extremely bad. Rain fell frequently during the nine innings, several times in hard showers of several minutes duration. The sky was threatening all day and the low changing, dark clouds made it so dark during the last two innings that it was hard for both players and spectators to follow the ball. A sharp northwest wind this afternoon added to the discomfort of the players and the spectators in the unprotected stands.
 Despite the wretched weather, the attendance. 1S,277, broke all local rec ords for the worlds series.

Works, who then went in, was lucky in the eighth after Abstein had made two base hit, with but one out. The next two were easy outs. In the ninth, the Pittsburgs batted him for three hits and that clinched the game for them. Had Jennings sent in a more experienced pitcher in such a situation he might have gained at least a tie.
 Detroit Found Maddox Towards End.
 Maddox was on the rubber for Pittsburg and was hit hard in the closing innings, although Detroit could do nothing with him in the early inn ings. When. the American leaguers did start to hit him they landed hard and often but Manager Clarke left him in the-box because of the lead his team had.
 The mighty Hans Wagner was the star of the game, but he was forced to share some of the honors with Ow- en Bush and Delehanty, of the locals Wagner made four hits and stole four bases, although Catcher Schmidt was not to blame for at least one of the thefts. Besides his hitting and base running. Wagner played an admira- ble game in the field In the first
