NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Now
that the New York Giants have
elected themselves to a second
term as champions of the Nation
al league by defeating Boston
twice yesterday, Gotham fans and
fanettes today predicted that Nc
Graw's men will walk away with

York and Chicago each have nine

when the National league season
officially closes, but the Cubs
could win all of their games with
out a displacement of the Giants

Although he is not boasting,
Manager McGraw Is con fident that
the Red Sox cannot repeat the
dose handed his men last year by
Connie Mack's Philadelphia Ath-
letics.
II am not making any predic-
tions," McGraw said today, but
the boys are confident. We have

Giants to win the series, but slip

iObjecting to everything in the
way of evidence that looks dam

Houston, on trial in federal court
for coal frauds, this morning cap
ped the climax by asking that the
trial be postponed 80 days to al
low them TO look over a wagon
load of records9of coal sales.
The request was denied.
The government had piled up
several hundred pounds of daily
reports on coal sales Il by their
companies at, Nome. Those re-
pdrts when gone into show that
when the government was paying
them s29 tons under. their alleged
collusive bid coal was selling at
Nome for an average Of about
SIT.
Attorney McCafferty first OBJ
jected to the evidence on the re-
ports going in. When the court
said it should go, then McCaf-
fsfty bobbed UP with request
that the case be continued so he
could look over the records.
The court thought, since the
records are those made by the
defendants themselves that they
were not being taken by surprise
atsall and denied the request.
