Bakers Homer the Winning CIout
Philadelphia Takes Second Game of Series Third Baseman Scored Collins Ahead of Him-Pank Wins From Marquard in Battle of Southpaws

ond on Murrays tumble. He was sae- rificed to third by Oldring, and came home on Marauard's wild pitch.
 Lord and Collins Featured.
 The fielding honors today were the reverse of those of Saturday. The particular feature was Lords quick fielding of Snodgrass' long hit and his rif1e-shot throw to second, which caught the fleet footed center fielder by a. couple of yards trying to stretch the long single into a double.
 In the ninth inning Collins got a nasty bounder from the side and toss ed out Murray. ending the game.
 Merkle Caught Off First.
 Neither team was given much op- portunity to show it's speed on the bases. Indeed, neither team stole a base. Merkle, who was on first in the seventh inning, made a feint at run ming to second, but took, too much d ot a lead off the bag. Plank instantly turned and by a lightning throw to Davis caught the New York first base man by yard.
 The crowd that saw the first of the worlds championship game here was game for the worlds title played here with Chicago last year. It was a joy full thIong. however, and cheered from the time the teams came upon the field until Collins tossed out Murray in the ninth inning.
 Meyers is Some Catcher.
 The man on the New York team who received the heartiest welcome was Catcher Meyers. His superb catching caught the crowds fancy, and he was given hand each time he stepped to the plate.
 Wild Demonstration for Baker.
 Bakers hit out of the grounds was the signal for the widest kind of dem onstration. Hats and cushions went into the air and horns, rattles and other ise-making instruments rais- ed a din that lasted several minutes. The Athletic players showed their de- light by running out to meet Baker as he crossed the plate. The hero took the demonStra ton modeStly, and walked over to the players bench and took a drink of water.
 Thousands on House Tops.
 The outfeld contained several thou sand persons who were kept back by a four foot fence, and on the concrete fence surrounding the park sat a solid line of fans who risl1ed their necks to see the game. On the roofs of the houses encircling the park other thou fancy prices for permission to take a seat on stands built upon the roofs of the dwellings. The grandstand doors were closed long before the game began, but the bleacher gates were not shut during the progress of the game.

Big College Elevens Are Strong Scor-
 ing Machines This Season.

Saturdays football games on the college gridirons of the east develop ed certain signs that the elevens are rounding into the shape for which the coaches have StriVen in preparation for the important games, now be- ginning to loom immediately ahead. The presence among the larger col leSe teams this season of a. number of remarkable bacllfield men has result ed in the development of strong SCOT Ing machines, along old style lines Of play. The use of the open game has been noted most among the minor colleges. Uncrossed goal lines among the larger colleges are unusually few.
 Students of the game, who look to comparative scores to convey an idea of the relative worth of the teams find a more or less confusing situation. Princeton, heading the larger eastern colleges in the Humber of points SCOT ed with 142 in five games, is the only one, except Cornell, to have it's goal invaded for touchdown. Brown next in point of standing with total of 127, which like Princeton's total was amaSsed at the expense of teams rated weaker than those met by Yale and Harvard, has kept her goal clean.
 Both Yale and Harvard also have kept their goals inviolate, while run ming up smaller aggregate scores of 92 and fl points, respectively The Crimson however, has played only three games as against four for most of the other colleges

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
GAINS SCALED DOWN. Demand For Stocks Fell Off Material
 iy Yesterday.

New York. Oct 16-The demand for stocks fell off materially today and the market lost the firm tone which was it's chief characteristic last week. Short coverings, which was the main stay of the market on it's recent ad- vance, ceased. and there was virtually no inquidy for stocks at the higher level The market had also to meet the effect of extensive realizing sales. and there was a recession which seal ed down recent gains from one to two points.
 The report of the European supply of copper revealed an unusually large shrinkage, the decrease of 6,557, 900 pounds being the third largest since the falling off in stocks began in March, 1910. The London market was influenced to some extent by the de- crease, spot copper advancing on active trading.

lost in the sun. Plank was never in trouble and in the last six innings the New Yorks went out in order.
 Marquard, upon whom Manager McGraw had counted to make it two straight victories for New York pitch ed almost as well os Plank. He al- lowed the heavy hitting Philadelphia team only four hits, two in the first inning, in which the Athletics got their first run with the aid of a wild pitch, and two in the sixth on Collins double and Bakers hit outside the grounds. In the eighth inning Man ager McGraw changed pitchers, send- ing in Crandall,a right handler.
 Marquard Wavered at the Start.
 But once during the game did Mar ouard show any unsteadiness, and that was in the first inning. He ap- peared to be nervous and for time had trouble reading the signals from Meyers. It looked as though he would 'blow up," and Manager McGraw doubtless thought so, too, for he inn mediately sent Crandall down the side lines to warm up. But under the cool and steady coaching of his Indian catcher. Marquard soon settled down and he had no more trouble until BaJk- CT broke up the game in the sixth in ming. Nevertheless Marquard was hit harder than the score indicates. Five of the outs were long flies to Devore and one long fly went to Snodgrass. New York sent only three flies to the outf1eId, two of wllichs were captured by Lord and one by Oldring.
 Plank Led in Strikeouts.
 Plank had eight strikeouts. Devore fell a. victim to the crossfire delivery of the Philadelphian four times, while Marquard struck out twice and Snod- grass and Murray each once. Six of the Athletics went out on strikeoI1ts. They were: Lord two, Baker, Murphy, and Plank two. Marquard got four Of these strikeouts and Crandall two Lord and Plank-in the eighth inning.
 Neither Plank nor Marquard gave 8 base on balls. The only misplay charged against them was Marquard's s wild pitch in the first inning and Plank's hitting a man with a pitched ball. The Athletics went out in order in five innings.
 Meyers There With Timely Single.
 New Works $ only run was put across the plate by the last half of the bat ting order. In the second inning Her zog drove a fly to@center which Old ring allied to get, and the New Yorker reached second. He went to third on FIetchers infield out and raced across the home plate when Meyers singled to left.

 Plank Never Pitched Better.
 The big hit occurred in the sixth in- ming with two out, when the Athletics had hit Marquard for only three hits. Bakers smashing hit was the last of the game for the American leaguers, but il was enough. Just as valuable as Baker was on the offensive was Ed die Plank, the star left handed pitch CT of the house of Mack, on the de- fensive. The veteran southpaw never pitcher a better game in his long careeh. Only one of the Giants reached second base, and that was Herzog, who made that bag on a long hit to centerfield, which Oldfield either misjudged or

Pitching Choice Today-New Workers Hopes Rest In Their Great Twilr-

# New York, Oct. 16-"Athletics win'' Giants whichever way the big headlines read or the newsboys shrieked on Broadway today, the tidings were a damper on the hopes of the more ardent fans of New York.
 The opinion which the New Yorl. crowd which returned tonight from Philadelphia brought back was that the big title at stake practically rests with Christy Mathewson, who won the first game here Saturday. It was announced that he and Coombs, the hero of last years championship series. will probably be the opposing pitchers in tomorrow's game. If Mathewson loses the duel it will be a still harder blow, seemingly necessita- ting the resort to Wiltse or Ames, the relief pitchers.
 Marquart's nervousness exhibited in a costly wild pitch at the outset of today's game had been predicted by many fans because of his nervousness to opposition roofing" The fans be- lieve that on home grounds he would make a better showing.
 Unsettled weather for tomorrow was the local forecast this evening.
