IDELEHANTY BEST
 BATTER IN SERIES

In the course of a baseball season )cores of arguments arise over the re- spectiye playing strength of the two mjaor organizations. Fans, however, series between the Pirates and Tigers, Giants and Red Sox and Cubs and White Sox, were able to get somewhat
 of a line on the merits of the two lea gues.
 The National league, on the face of l the results, overshadowed the Ameri- can league in taking the worlds series honors again, while the Cubs trim med the White Sox; the Johnsoaian or 1 ganization credited itself with victory l in the Red Sox-(iants series.
 In the grand total of playing rec ] ords in the games the American lea gue clubs outbatted the Nationals PAP ] to -227, but the mother organization excelled in fielding .963 to .922 The National league clubs also displayed
 more speed on the bases and in gen. eral all-around work

 In the worlds series interest was naturally centered in the individual i AS the records show Cobb failed to class with the Dutchnan. Wagner carried off the batting honors in the 1 duel with a, mark of-.376 to Cobb's PA. 1 Wagner was also the superior of Cobb | on the bases, as in the series he led 2 with eight -thefts to his credit. DEuEEBANTY BEST STICKER. \ Individual batting honors in the big series went to Frank Delehanty- He led in stickwork with mark of 1885,
 and was followed by Wagner and T. ! Jones. Pittsburg had the best of the argu-

 pregnable in every game. In the three i contests the Tigers were able to gar : rer only eighteen hits, six in each

NEW SCRUB STAR
 ON YALE FIELD

An incident: on Yale field yesterday
 fternoon illustrates what a large dunlber of men there are on the squad
 that are of varsity calibre but who are not good enough in some minor de- tails to be regulars, men who would
 be stars on teams at the smaller col
 leges, and who. are all but wasted at Yale. The incident was the playing of Robinson, a heretofore unknown scrub, who was one of the best half backs seen in scrinmages at the field this year. He played on the varsity against the strong scrubs, tearing holes in the line of the latter, making a, lew good gains around~the ends,. re- covering a forward pass and an onside kick. and regaining a fumb1ed ball, scoring the only touchdown made by the varsity after a pretty run of 40

STATUS OF WALLA WALLA
COMPANY STILL IN DOUBT

Secretary OF State Charles S. Tingey is
still in doubt as TO the status of the Walla
WaIla Fire Insurance company. Yester-
day he received a message from ]. II.
Shiveiy. deputy insurance commissioners
for the state Of Washington, located at
Olympia, saying that receiver had been
appointed for the Walla Walla company
and that no report had been received as
to the condition of the company. Z. II.
Pierce, who represented the Walla Walla
here. was notified that the American
Home Insurance company had been organ
lied at Seattle to reinforce the Walla

understand why the Walla Walla company
is in trouble. At the same time he is in
receipt of letter from o. p. Coneway.

the report that the company is in the
hands of a receiver, and -instructing him

WHO'S WHO AND WHY" BILL" SPRY
BY JOHN c. pERKS.
2 Saturday Evening Post for this headiine-l

who live on a peanut diet in order to
get that makeup
..BlI'' Spry is a democrat. The sad
dest word that can be written about
him Is that he is not a Democrat To
show YOU that he is democrat, Gov
ernor Spry walked. accompanied by
Mrs. Spry, to the senate chamber yes
terday where he was to take the oath
How many incoming governors do you
think would have done that2 How
many would have been satisfied with
shoe leather instead of barouches and
victorias2 Spry was It's way he
has.
Yesterday Governor Spry enunciated
doctrine that win be keynote in this
state. When he said, i'm effect, Let US
forget party, class and creed and get
together he said something that
means something. An Individual might
say those words half hundred times
and mean nothing, but when a governor
says that 'it is time that previous con-
ditions in this state cease to exist" it is
equivalent to the pledge that the states
first officer viii use all of the powerful
machinery and influence at his COM
mand to wipe out the i'll feeling, the
pickering and the bitterness and the
hatred.
Can Spry make it stick? That is a
question the answer to which is not to
be foretOid. Those who know the char
acter of the man say that he will. There
is no question that he is in earnest; no
man can say that Bill Spry is insin-
cere. He has a pretty big job on his
hands. He has an enemy to fight in
ternally that is worse than the other.
Will they let him do it? VIII who let
him do it? The church. The federal
bunch.
A man was coming down the steps of
the city and county building yesterday
who overheard a remark of this kind
Don't you ever think that Spry is
going to let any clique or gang run
that governors office. He's going TO
be governor, governor, real governor. -"
So whatever of politics may enter
into the matter, you will not find a man
who can truthfully say other than that
Bill Spry is a mighty good citizen"

make a particle of difference with the
men who know him best. Among these
men, perhaps, there is none who know
him better for his personality than the
newspaper man. There never was a
time when Spry, as marshal. was too
busy to talk with newspaper man:
there never was q time when he was
too sleepy to answer a telephone call
for "A newspaper man, no matter at

paper man got it from Spry he could
put 1t down for being so, because SpTy
would either tell him yes, no, or that he

more satisfactory to the newspaper

EVEN THE CITY FAILS TO
BEAT SLOT MACHINES

The fact that the monthly report of the
chief of police to the city auditor. filed
yesterday, for the month of December
falied to allude to the $3.50 which II is
aleged was turned over to former Chief
or Police Tom D. Pitt as receipts from
the owners OF slot machines and held bv
MIN for some months, revived interest in
the question as to what had become of
this money.
The matter has been referred to be-
fore in public manner. and il was said
that Chief of Police Pitt held the money
in the safe at police headquarters, but
never made an accounting to the CITY
In an endeavor to learn the facts in the
case, The Herald last night interviewed
former Chief of Police Pitt, and the fol-
lowing statement was made:
Some time ago the police committee
of the city council placed the slot ma
chimes in much the same class as that of
the fallen women; that is, a monthly
fine OF license was to be collected. The
owners of slot machines We're reollfred
to put up a certain amount that was
nominally bail money, and then the bail
was to be forfeited.
My secretary, Carl Peterson, collected
this money, but some of the slot machine
owners objected to paying. and a test case
was made The district court held that
the slot machine was a gaming device
In view of that decision / did NOT feel
justified in going ahead and collecting a
fine or license, and the matter stood that
way until turned over the fund to Soren
y Christensen, who acted as attorney
for the slot machine owners. This money
was supposed to be returned to those who
had deposited it as bail, and this course
was taken under the suggestion of the
city attorney. who said that was the prop
er and only thing to do. I have Mr.
ChFistenson's receipt for the amount.
That is why the fund does not show In
the report
A peculiar feature of the case is that
while the courts nave declared slot ma
chimes a gambling device. and the city is
obtaining no revenue even through fines
the machines. both trade and coin are
still running, flagrsntiy and openly.
