was to the Red Sox In that series
what Mathewson was to the New

to the Pittsburgh Pirates In 1909. and
what Coombs was to the Philadelphia

Big Bill was called upon to work In

Bill held the Pirates to three hits

s to 4. Bill won his third game to
8, allowing 10 hits, while In his final
effort he again whitewashed the Pi-

BOMB EXPLODED ON A sTEAMEl

An unknown man went into the Law
atory OF the ferryboat Berkeley just
after it left San Francisco for Oakland
on its, trip last night and exploded a
dynamite bomb. He was blown to
pieces and six other men in the room
we're badly injured. Two of them
will die. One man had his right arm
blown off. Another lost both legs,
ani is terribly mangled.
A great hole was torn in the side OF
the steamer near the water line. The
Berkeley carried about 1000 commu-
tiers on the way home from business
from San Francisco. The explosion
shook the vessel from stem to stern
and caused the vessel to rock as in a
heavy sea. A high southwest wind
added to the seriousness of the situa-
tion.
The body of the suicide, badly maug.
lied, lies on slab in Oakland, but had
not been identified at a late hour.
