about three hundred yards, and the

The Giants hit for .17o and the
Athletics for .244. while Mack's team
scored twenty-seven runs against
thirteen for McGraw. more than
doubling the New York output Most
of this margin is, of course. due TO the
1S to 2 hurly burly Of yesterday, but
just as pigs is pigs, runs is runs,
wherever you find them or however
you make them.
There was a touch OF sentiment at
the close when Mack sent in Earl
Mc1nness." the star little first Base
man, 10 handle the last putout Of the
game. This was "Suny's" sole chance
to work in the battle. but he can say
at least that he was there to retire
the last Giant up. The absence Of Nc
Inness was not felt as Davis played
the bag in great shape and hit like a
wild man, driving in a shoal Of tallies
by his consistent stick work.
The game closed out the richest of
all worlds series battles, where close
TO $350,O00 was taken in at the gate,
with a young fortune for each player
upon both teams and a real fortune
for the club owners.
II was a great series-possibly the
