Prediction Freely Made That Winter
Will See Severest Shortage Known.
Chicago, Oct. 9.-Railroads of the
country are already face to face with
freight car shortage. This fact be-
came known yesterday when the car
efficiency committee of the American
Railway Association issued its semi
monthly bulletin regarding the car
sftuation.
The information disclosed is that the
surplus of freight cars of the entire
country has practically been wiped out.
Where little more than year ago
there We're nearly 100000 idle freight
cars standing on the sidetracks, there
is now a small shortage being exper-
fenced in several lines of traffic.
The prediction is freely made that
before the winter months set in the
country will be facing the severest car
shortage in the history of railroads in
this country

Pittsburg. Oct. 9.-Another large
crowd turned out for the second game
ef the worlds championship series be-
tween Detroit and Pittsburg today
Cheered on by the victory Of Pittsburg
yesterday, local enthusiasts were out in
.orce and a majority appeared to be
confident the National League cham
pions would win the series in four
straight games, but the Detroit follow
ers appeared to have different views.
The crowds started pouring into the
immense amphitheater long before the
game was scheduled to start, and the
attendance was estimated at more than
10000. Both teams are scheduled to
leave for Detroit tonight and spend
Sunday there.
No Sunday Game.
There will be no Sunday game in
Detroit despite the fact that the Amer
lean League champions have been play
Ing regularly on Sundays Those
games were being played without
rognizance of the city officials, because
there is law forbidding Sunday base
ball in Detroit. 1t was feared, however,
that the large crowds attendant upon
the worlds championship game would
cause complaint and might result in
stopping all Sunday games. Therefore
the Detroit management decided not to
take the chance.
Manager Clarke wore confident
smile as he led his team upon the field.
Each member of the team was roundly
applauded, but the lions share OF
cheers settled upon Leach, Clarke
Wagner, and Gibson, the heroes of the
first battle.
Jennings Still Confident.
Manager Jennings. of Detroit, refused
to take a pessimistic view of~the sit
uation. He and his men came on the
field with jaunty air. They were de-
termined to win today, as they knew
another defeat would practically put
them out of the running for the great
est honors in organized baseball. The
Detroit infield worked smoothly in
practice and showed no signs of an
other blow-up such as marked the fifth
Inning in yesterdays game. Delehanty
and Bush were detected over their err
rors yesterday and determined that no
more from them should mar the play
ing of their team. Following is the
lineup today:
