 The series between the Giants and Yankees will start on the Polo grounds on Thursday, Oct. 12. The second on the Hilltop on Oct 14, and the next day back to the Polo grounds. These are the opening dates wired by Presi- dent Brush of the Giants and President Farrell of the Tanks to the National commission yesterday. The National commission last evening picked JJrn- pires Klem of the National League and Evans of the American to odicfate at the series. The series will end when one team has won four games.
 The Giants and Tanks wiIreprobably lay off on Monday, Oct. IT, and also the Athletics and Cubs will be bat ting in Philad elpnia.
 It is figured out that the two St. Louis clubs in the past 10 years have paid out something close to s3oO 900 in drafting and purchasing players, and have turned out only one real 5olayer
 
 dtnalS. The White Sox alone in the past three seasons have spent about s20OO00 in developing players with du- bious results. On the other hand the Yankees because of profitable sales through old players and through the shrewdness of their clubs scouts have developed into winning form practic- ally without cost.
 Catcher Lou Criger of the Tanks, re- garded by many as the best catcher in the business in his day, and without a peer a coach for young pitchers will not be retained by the Tanks. The Tanks will have Sweeney, Blair, Mitchell and Walsh do the work next season.
 It is now stated that Johnny Evers' injuries are such that they may affect his future career as a baseball player. It was first believed that a small bone was broken, but an x-ray examina- ton showed that three bones were broken.
 Zimmerman who is to take Johnny Evers' place at second for the Cubs in the worlds series, broke into the hero class yesterday in the game with Cin-/ cinnati. He made two of the most wonderful hits in baseball. The first ball pitched to him by Suggs went over the center field fence. On his second appearance at bat he lifted the bill over the left field fence In nine years no player has ever hit the Gin cinnati fences on the fly. Tn his last appearance at Dat he came near du- plicating his former flights over the boards, when he hit the left field fence, getting a triple. He made three of the Cubs five runs If he can play like that in the worlds series. the Cubs have no reason to lament the loss of EVers.
 Owner Ebbets of the Brooklyn club is little peeved that his team is not in on the Yank-Giant series. He says it ought to be a three cornered affair If the Tanks defeat the Giants then Ebbets will eventually have a crack at the title, for a series has been ar ranged between the Hi1ltopersr and the Dodgers in the spring.
 The series for the championship of Ohio between the Maps and the Reds will be started in Cincinnati on Oct. Il. The series is to end when one club wins three games. Brennan of the National and O'Loughlin of the American are to be the umpires.
