IMPOSSIBLE TO
PREVENT SCALP|NC
National Commission InveSti-
eating Charges of Dis
honest Methods.

CHICAGO, October 22--SpecuatiOn in
worlds series tickets was a live topic at
places where base ball fans congre-
gated yesterday.
President Lynch of the National League
went into the matter at length.
1T is absolutely impossible he de-
clared, ito completely suppress scalping
in a worlds series. Even where We have
limited the number of tickets. one person
can purchase to four, the buyers have
repeated on us and kept the scalpers
supplied. think that the system we are
using is perfect as can be devised.
THE charges Of entering into dishonest
conspiracy that have been made against
the commission have absolutely no basis.
We are making our own investigation
of scalping and we have found that in
every instance the tickets found their
way into the hands of the scalpers from
bona fide purchasers. For instance, the
employees of factory get together to the
number of 10 and 100 and send in an
order to us with the cash.
I'm some cases these buyers take two
or more tickets each. In order to recover
the cost of the ticket they intend to use
themselves they peddle the other two to
scalpers, or sell them themselves at scalp
ers' prices.
THE very fact that as high as $50 has
been charged for three-dOllar seats proves
that scalping is not carried on in the ex-
tensve form charged. The law of supply
and demand hgures i'll scalpng just as In
any other business. II there were plenty
of three-dollar seats to be had, the scalp
ers would be glao to sell them at 81 or -.
The fact that they are selling them for
$5o shows that there arc only few OF
them"
OFFERS for evidence proving a conspir-
acy, in which members of the commits
sion are involved, have been made said
August Hermann. president OF the ma
tional commits sion. ''Tll give $1,000 for
the same evidence. The charge that the
commission has anything to do with
scalping is a full-fiedged lie without
shred OF fact in it's composition

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
CHICAGO. October off ever real
effort was made to win Il ball game 1t
will be today, when the Athletics will DO
their best to make it four straight from
the Cubs. Every American League rooter
and official is anxious to see the Athletics
make a clean sweep. There are several
reasons for this. In the first place it
games are juggled so as to prolong the
series. and, incidentally, 1t would be a
slap at the National League, which in
the past has dealt many blow to the
American League pennant winners.
The postponement yesterday. 1t is fig
ured. will help the Cubs, for it gives
Brown another days rest, and he is fig
ured to come back. Cub admirers cannot
understand why he was so numerically
pounded the other day. and they predict
that he will set even for this humiliation
when he faces the Athletics the next
time. OF course, Bender will be worked
against Brown. and it may be a pitchers
battle if they are i'll their best form.
1t is only forlorn hope now that the
Cubs will be able to stop the Athletics.
To win four straight games from such
combination as CONNIE MACK > is d nun
dred-to-One shot, as the Cubs pitching
staff is all shot to pieces. The tw1rlins
of Coombs and Bender has been too
much for the former worlds champions,
and ii looks very much as if Chance and
his men will have to be satisfied this year
with the second place in the base bail
world.
There is one chance left for the Chi
cago men tn rally and Snow that game
ness that has made them the wonder
of the base ball world for so many years.
1t may be Brown or 1t may be Cole that
will go to the front and save the West
Siders from the humiliation of four
straight defeats. Connie Mack has had
his plans made for weeks just how he
would play his men, and If he adheres
to the original intention it will be Chief
Bender to face the Cubs in the fourth
game.
Connie may decide to give Eddie Plank
chance to go to the firing line. how
ever. since the first three contests have
been so easy for the White Elephants.
If Plank goes in against Brown the
Cubs will have a chance to string the
series along, and, of course. play the
shoestring out and win. The national
game is so full of surprises that there is
no dope that is absolutely accurate. King
Cole looks like the White Mans Hope
for the Cubs, but if the Athletics keep
up their great batting streak they will
likely drive the slender twirler TO the
as all of the other pitchers
have been driven so far in the series.
The Cubs have not quit. They are still
going to fight just as hard for the fourth
game as they did in the first three
They have not had any the best of the

that source in today's battle. 1t is an
unusual thing for a fOurgame series to
end without the luck of the game break
ing nearly even.
The hitting of the Athletics lras been
the surprise of the series. In Thursday S
game the fifteen terrific hits that were
made were no fiukeS, for most of them
were clouts that would have counted for
more bases than they did but for the
ground rules. There is confidence in every
one of the Philadelphia men when they
go to the plate. and they take long full
swings at the ball. and their long drives
have been the result. The home run
Danny Murphy made in the game Thurs
day was a hard drive into the right field
bleachers and was the deciding blow of
the game. Two men were sent in ahead
of Dan and the home run seemed to take
all the heart out of the Cub players, for
they did not show the same life after
that.
