New York, October 22.-(Special 1-With yesterdays game called off at 9 o'clock in the morning in Philadelphia, the base hall world. or what is left of it, moved up to New York yesterday afternoon.
 As soon as the official announcement became public MeGraw hastily collected his team and escaped from the four day martyrdom in Philadelphia. The rain has pounded necessarily upon the fans and field at Philadelphia, and the chances are that, even if it ceases tonight, that Shibe bark will not be in condition for play on Monday.
 Whether tho series ever can be finished is becoming a more vital question than which team will win. The weather man both here and at Philadelphia refused to hold out any hopes and announced more rain for tomorrow. As they predicted clearing weather through three days of steady rain, you may copper their guess if you desire.
 It was sad and bedraggled bunch of prayers and fans that came back from Philadelphia this morning. A lot of them have made four trips, hoping to see a game, and the Giant players have lived fer four days in a hotel filled with frantic fans.
 The conditions of the Giants at glance did not seem good. The players were peevish and fretful, and the nervous strain seemed to be telling on them. They were glad to be back to a city that holds them heroes instead of surrounded by bugs who want them beaten. Some of the Giants had escaped yesterday, but the main playing squad came over at -:oon and scattered to their homes.
 Immediately half dozen Broadway the atres announced that the Giants would attend their performances tonight. The actor idea seems to permeate the entire situation here, and from that fact has arisen tine latest scandal connected with the worlds series.
 Some one sold the moving picture priv iieges to one firm, and shut all photog- raphers, newspaper and otherwise off the field. The players have demanded a share in the moving picture proceeds, and the national commission has turned them down cold That has caused much anger among the inflated Athletics. who do not consider $4000 each enough for playing the series although the yearly salaries of inc players do not average as much as they will get from the series. On the other hand, who gets this piece of graft
 The interest in the series is waning sc ro pidly that it would be a good thing to call it off now and let it go as it stands The national commission did not take the trouble to go over to Philadelphia this morning. The rain was pelting down ana as the umpres had reported Shibe parl unfit, except to drink, they called of the game by telephone.
 There is another scandal that is ripen- ing rapidly.
 Hughie Jennings, manager of the De troit club, is out with an axe for the national commission. He was accused o1 being a traitor to the American league and of advising McGraw to have his play CTS jump at Baker, telling them Baker would quit if attacked. Jennings planes some of the national commission mem bers, and he cursed the commission open ly within their hearing. :. Nice doings
