FIERCE BATTLE.
10, 900 Attack 1000 Imperial
Troops Which We're Strong
ly Entrenched Today.
BRAVERY ON BOTH SIDES
Rebels Attempted to Take
Breastworks With Bayonets
When Ammunition Failed.

grscial by Uvsted Press Wtrs
Hankow, Oct. 1s.--The first real
battle of the Chinese rebellion has
ended In a Victory for the imperial
troops who, In decisive engage
ment north OF here today, held their
entrenchments against vastly su-
perior force OF the rebels, infiictfng
heavy losses. The rebel forces, after
several sanguinary conflicts, were
forced to retire, the soldiers having
no ammunition with which to con-
tinue.
The imperial brigade of 5000
men was attacked by 10000 well
armed rebels and battle RACED for
several hours. The rebels retreated
toward Wu Chang when their am
munition was exhausted.
The battle opened at dawn. The
losses on both sides were heavy,
both rebels and imperial forces fight
! ing with splendid va1or. Several
times the rebel forces swept across
the open country and tried to take
the imperial position at the point OF
| the bayonets. Each time they we're
repulsed, leaving their dead and
| wounded on the field. The imperial
| forces too lost heavily and long
trains Of wounded are being brought
into Hankow, where they are being
cared for by volunteer Red Cross
organization made up of foreign
residents.

Humble Matty in Third Game.

New York, Oct 18.-Another home
raln--this time In the ninth--and on
Chrdsty Mathewson, the Giants main
stay In the delivery department, gave
the Athletics the third game of the
worlds series. The score was 8 to q,
the Giants making only three hits Oh
Coombs and scoring q run In the last
inning.
The Giants partially crumbled under
the heavy cannonading OF the Ath,
lettcs In the eleventh, who pounded
Matty for three hits, which, with err
reFs by Merkle and Herzog, netted
two runs, Just enough to win, for In
the last half Herzog made up for sev-
eral bungiing plays by lining out a two
bagger, after which be reached the
plare on a tumble by Collins. Mathew
son was found for nine hits, but he
was batted much harder than the score
Indicates. He received magnificent
support from Mayors, Doyle and MUIR
ray, who helped him out of numerous
tight places. Coombs used terrific
speed and pitched with wonderful con
fdence. Meyers and Mathewson hit
him safely In the third inning. after
which the Giants were helpless until
Herzog cracked out his double ia the
final round,
The game was exciting and filled
with sensational Incidents Numerous
close decisions worked up the players
and the crowd. yet the rulings all wors
eninently fair. The only unpleasant
feature was the spikiug OF Baker BY
SHedgrass In the tenth Inning, tle lat
ter deliberately jumping into the crack
third baseman in such manner that
his spikes tore Bakers trousers and
inflicted d painful wound. For this
exhibition OF poor sportsmanship Snod-
grass was roundly scored by thofl-
sands OF fair minded fans In the grand
stand and bleachers.
Havsrs beaten ..athewson, the Atm
letics express confidence In their abil-
ity to Win the series. for they will use
Bender In Philadelphia this afternoon.
while the Giants probably will send
Marquard to the mound In g desperate
attempt to stem the tide.
In spite of the cold and threatening
weather the attendance almost equaled
that OF Saturday The turnstIle count
showed that 37,216 persons passed
through the gates. The gross receipts
amounted to s75, The players
share was 4O.s20.22. Each club own
er received s13,6o6.74 The commits

For the three games the total attend

ment that only one, John w. Rob

was convinced that the best men In

The defense today impeached

swore he never had an opinion of
the guilt or innocence of MCNAMARA
or as to how the Times was de-

TENANTS MUST
M0VEA ONCE
Health Board Takes Action
Against Joseph Matteucc;.

Drastic measures were taken by
the Board of Health at their session
last night to compel property owners
to abate nuisances within the time
prescribed by the Board. The rul-
ing was directly applied to the ten
ement house In 516 Smith street,
owned by Joseph Matteucci. where
twenty-five families reside The
Board notified the owner OF the
building over a month ago and he
has openly defled them. After de,
liberating some time it was decided
to post notices ordering the tenants
to seek new quarters within ten
days.
President Kaletsch relative to
statements appearing in the NEWS
relative TO the inability of the Board
to prosecute offenders, gave a
lengthy talk. He criticised the al
legged slow progress made by City
Attorney Hommann in following up
complaints made by the Board. He
declared 1t was not UP to the Board
after notices to prosecute were sent
and the City Attorney failed to do
SO. The Board as whole, Mr..
Kaletsch said, would investigate the
cause of delay and act accordingly
Stagnant Pool Case.
Peter Jenson, of 331 Stockton
street, who made the complaint to
the Board some time ago about the
stagnant water in Meade street,
was given ten days to abate a nui-
sance at his own house. It was con-
tended by Mr.. Jenson that one OF
his sons became I'll with typhoid
fever from the pools in Meade
street, but according to the report
made TO the Board by Inspector
Kerr, -enson's own house was
enough to spread the disease.
Inspect Milk Places.
Leo Schwartz announced to the
Board that all of the places where
milk Is sold as we'll as the dairies
In this vicinity, are being thorough
ly inspected and the work will be
completed before October 81, when
all milk licenses expire. 1t was re-
ported that the nuisance at 430
Market street and several minor
complaints were abated.
Special plumbing license was
granted j. Hanson, for work In
Park avenue.
A bill for s26.42 was sent to the
Board by William II. Mccormick &
Son, covering food supply for Isola-
ton Hospital in 1902. 1t was ex-
planned that the bill had been mfa-
laid for some time and was sent for
payment. The Board OF Health
coula not act On it ana it was orr
dered forwarded to the Board Of
Aldermen.
Applies to Slaughter House.
The commissioners went into can
Gus at s:05 until 9:15 discussing the
advisibflity Of granting q license to
