Chicago. Oct. 22.-Nineteen thousand
sane in the ninth inning by tie, and
in the tenth inning by victory saw
the Chicago Nationals come back" and
capture the fourth game in the worlds
series from the Philadelphia Ameri-
cans, to 3.
The combat was one that will live
in history. There was not a moment
when properly interested partisan
could draw calm. full breath. 1t was
anybody's game until the finish, when
a double, an out and single put the
winning run across the plate.
Up to Chicago's half of the ninth,
the score stood to N favor of the
visitors. 1t looked as if the latter
would perform the record breaking feat
of capturing four straight games in
the worlds series and take the pen
nant home. A number of Philadelphia
visitors went so far as 10 make sleep

agent at the srandstand. AS events
turned out, Chicago prevented the oc-
cupation of the berths.
Schultz stepped to the plate in the
last half of = e ninth. There was a
prayerful silei.ce and then something
happened. The debonair rightfielder

Bat the crowd was fairly crazy with
excitement. The roar of cheers was
ear-spIitting when Captain Chance
came to bat. The first ball pitched

he had walked into it, and it served

then resumed his position, glaring in
the direction of the still grinning Bend

the result was different. With every
muscle of his angry system tense, he
caught the ball on a seam and slammed
il into the farthest corner of the lot
for three bases. The gloom which had
hung like a pail since Monday floated
away, and in the sky of the fanatics
appeared rainbows of hope and promise
unbOunded.
The devoted band of Philadelphia
rooters remained passive, and conf

ming side had not deserted them. They
acclaimed the Indian hurler when
Zimmerman and Steinfeldt went out,
leaving Chance, with what would have
been a running run, stranded on third.
The game might have ended at this
stage but for a sensational catch by
Baker Steinfeldt poked a foul into the
left field box, and, although the occu-
pants thereof were far from helpful,
the fast fielding third baseman of the
Philadelphians leaned over among
seats and shared the ball. But that
was only one of many Ifs" with which
the game abounded. The Philadel-
phians came to bat in their half of the
tenth with unabated confidence.
Archer smothered a foul and Baker,
the first man up, was disposed of. Cap
tain Davis rose to the occasion with
a clean double to right, and the To-
cal crowd felt something in its throat.
"Homerun" Murphy was up, but his
best was a sharp grounder. Tinker
fumbled for one breathless moment and
then threw Davis out at third. Berry
ended the rally by striking out.
Two were out when the winning run
came Tinker popped out and Archer
interpolated a double which was fol-
lowed by Browns out at first. Every
local hope hung on Sheckard, but, for
tunately those with weak hearts did
not have to hang long. The Chicago
left fielder lit into the first bali pitched
for single over second. Archer trot-
ted across the plate and the agony was
over.
Chance answered the call Of the West
Side constituency by sending king
Cole into the pitching box. Archer was
named to catch because Kings batting
average of .0S7 for the series, 1t was
thought, would not be lowered by Ar

Chicago scored first, when Sheckard
walked, stole the only base of the day
and scored on Hoffman's single. In the
fourth, Schultz single and went to third
when Hoffman hit to Davis. scoring
on a single by Chance. Further scor-

Philadelphia tied the score in the
third when Bender walked and came
home on Strunk's triple to deep center.
