600 such seats were on sale today, the
reserved seats having been previously
disposed of.
The Giants are confident of the out
come of the series but at the same
time they expect to be fought until
the last man is out
mo one among our boys holds the
Red Sox cheap remarked "Chief"
Meyers, the Indian catcher OF the
Giants, who was one of the first play
ers to report at the club house today.
''We'H Try to Win,'' Says Doyle.
Soon after the ''Chief' came Math-
ewson, MerkIe and the other players,
for there were spikes to be sharpened
and bats and Uniforms to be inspected.
Few of the players were recognized IN
their street clothes as they edged their
way through the jam at the entrance
1--WE naturally expect to wln, salo
Cantain Larry Doyle, the Giants sec
ord baseman. We'll try, of course,
to make it four straight. What more
can any one say? Luck plays her part
in baseball as in everything else L
have never been able to figure luck in
advance We have a fine team, one
ready TO make plenty of action.
LAS to the Bostons, well, they must
be a good ball club to win a pennant-
One hears much of their fine pitching
staff. but haven't the Giants been hit
ting good pitching all the year? think
we can hit Joe Wood and the other Red
gotten that the Red Sox have yet to
show whether they can hit such pitch
ing as will be served by Matty, Tes-
reau and Marquard. In a short series Of
seven games pitching is the big factor
and the Giants have a rafting lot OF
box men,"
Manager John M. McGraw said the
Giants were prepared to make hard
fight. McGraw has looked the Red Sox
over and studied the fine points of their
play, but the New York players said
this morning that it was doubtful if re
had laid out any plan of battle in adj
vance. They know him as a man who
depends on quick judgment on the field.
The Red Sox are in fine fettle. Be
ycnd the injury to Larry Gardner, no
ailments were reported TO -anager
Stahl by his men when they turned out
this morning. Gardner will hold down
his old position at third base unless his
injured finger gives him trouble. Clyde
EngIe will take his place should Gard
ner be compelled to retire. Engle is a
good player but has not Gardeners field
ing or hitting ability.
Manager Stahl has primed Joe Wood
his star pitcher for duty today but
there were reports that he might send
in Ray Collins. Il think our seasons
record will justify me in saying this
much about the series with the Giants,
said Stahl, land that is that there won't
be one game that our opponents won't
have to knock US down to get.''
Thousands of dollars have been wag-
cred on the outcome of the series. Boston
was the favorite at 10 to and 10 to 8.
Boston money in sight. Bets of to 5
that Boston would win if Joe Wood
pitched today were popular with the
visitors.

COWDRY ARRESTED.
He Had Alteration With Police Over
Using Hack Stand for Auto.

J. R. Cowdry, an automobile deal
er, was arrested Monday night for re-
fusing to move his automobile off the
hack stand at the Rock Island pas
senger station. He drove his car to
the station to meet his wife, who was
due to come in on a train from Kan
sas City about 1890 o'clock, and left
it in place on Kansas avenue which
is allotted to the hacks.
Officers Nash and England were on
duty in the vicinity of the station and
received a complaint from hack driv-
ers that Mr.. Cowboys automobile was
occupying space which had been al
lotted to them as a hack stand. The
officers told Mr.. Cowdrey to move his
machine, but he objected and his ar
rest resulted. After arresting the man
the officers discovered that he failed
to display license number or light
on the rear of his machine.
Mr.. Cowdry resented the arrest and
made things unpleasant for the Off
GERS. AS result they took him to
the police station and held him I'M
til an employee called and produced
the necessary money for his appear
ance in police court to answer to the
charge. Mr.. CoWdry will be re-
quired to stand trial on the three diff
ferent counts.
Mr.. Cowdry feels that he was badly
tSeated by the police in this matter.
The police claim that Mr.. Cowdry
would not have been arrested at all,
but merely booked on his own recog-
nizance had he acted reasonably when
told to move his car.

''I expect to wait for him at the
Auditorium said Mr.. James, land

portunity.''
Mr. James is a member of the Ameri-
can National Live Stock Association.
and has an interesting letter of recon-
mendation from the secretary in Den
yer, asserting that he is familiar with
western conditions regarding use of The
unappropriated semi-arid grazing lands.
The cowboy is contemplating a trip
through the east, ready to explain to
any one interested the exact conditions
as to use of the open range. This is
question of great Importance" writes
the secretary, mot only to the western
live stock interests, but to the entire
consuming public in the east
Mr.. James also belongs the Society
OF American Indians and is making an
effort to further the bill now in con-
gress regarding the preservation of In
dian land.
He is a big six footer, evidently used
to out-of-door life, and apparently of
versatile mind. He not only favors
open range and Indian protection, but
is also an advocate of woman's suf-
frage. vote for Women" he scrawIed
across the picture he gave a reporter,

]. ]. KINGS HORSE.
Stolen Three TimeS-LaSt Time
Found at Lawrence.

Norman Noble and Charles McCul-
ley, also the horse and buggy belong
ing to J. J. King, all of which disap-
peared Monday morning, have been
found in Lawrence, and are to be sent
home.
The two 9-year-olds are apparently
incorrigible and have run away sew
eral times before. Mr.. Kings horse
has been abducted three times since
spring. Charles has relatives in Kan
sas City, and it was believed that was
the boys destination. The police fol-
lowed their trail, however, and found
them in Lawrence
As the horse kicks, and the boys
beat it numerically, Mr.. King feared
for their safety. They were found
in a perfectly whole condition, and will
have to answer to the police for their
theft

GET RATE REDUCTIONS
Topeka Traffic. Bureaus Work on
NoIasses Schedules.

The Topeka Traffic Bureau has
been instrumental in the reduction of
rates on mo1asses and vinegar shipped
into Topeka. From st. Louis Peoria,
Chicago and st. Paul an even three
cent reduction per one hundred
pounds has been made by the rail-
roads on carload lots. For example,
the rate from Peoria was formerly 80
cents a hundred, and the new rate is
~ cents. The new schedule is al
ready effective on some lines; it will
be effective on all lines by Novem-
Der 1.
The rate per hundred pounds from
New Orleans to Topeka in carload
lots has been reduced from AZ cents
to 40 cents.
In the course of a year twenty car
loads of vinegar are shipped into To-
peka and twenty-five carloads of mo-
lasses. The Otto Kuehne company is
the largest consumer of these com

FOR GAMES
Thousands at Polo Grounds
Waiting for Umpite's Call.
Men and Women Lined Before
Gates at Midnight.

New York. Oct. S.-t'New York Gil
ants VS.. Boston Red Sox at the Polo
grounds today
To baseball enthusiasts from coast
to coast that announcement foretold
the opening day of another world S
championship baseball series, the New
York National League pennant win
ners to contest with the Boston Amer
lean League club, the champions OF
their organization for the worlds title.
To the winners of the first four out
of seven game series also goes the
larger share of the money prize reck-
oned at more than 100000.
Day broke fair and crisp, and the
weather man promised a fine after
noon. Groundkeepers Murphy looked
out over the field of the polo grounds
and reported diamond ready for fast
playing.
Neither of the rival managers was
prepared to announce his batting order
early today for everything depended
upon the selection for box work just
before the game. Should Boston send
their left-hander, Ray Collins, to the
mound instead of Joe Wood, Mana
ger McGraw of the Giants probably
will switch Snodgrass from center to
left field and replace OutfeIder De-
wore who is weak against south
paws with Becker.
Thus the uncertainty over the pitch
ing selections indicated some jockeying
of batting orders just before umpire
in-chief cried play ball'' at 2 o'clock
this afternoon.
The early corners began to gather
at the Brush stadium early last night
to be in line when the gates opened at
o'clock this morning. By midnight
this line had grown to 500 people,
Many of them had brought camp
stools and soap boxes upon which to
take an occasional sitting nap It'll
grew cold toward morning and the
crowd struggled close to the high
board fence along Eighth avenue
to escape a biting west wind.
Waiting at the Gates.
A woman appeared in line just after
midnight and was cheered. She was
not long without feminine company.
By sunrise a score of women were
found in the shivering trail that led
from the yellow gates down toward
the IT, station at One Hundred and
street. Club officials esti-
mated that there were 1000 people at
the gates at O'Clock. This early
throng was formed in a line. four
abreast, and when the gates were
flung open there was a rush fo~ the
sections on the lower
grandstands and for the ''bleacher'
seats back of the outheld. About 3d.

TOOK THEIR LUNCH WITH THEM
Early Fans Carry Meals in Baskets to
Polo Grounds.

New York, Oct. S.-The long line was
fully equipped for the nights siege
just ended, with every sort of seat,
wrap and nourishnent. Women heav-
lily bundled in furs and sitting on
camp stools with steamer rugs about
them, held grimly to the baskets in
which their breakfasts were slowed
away. Others who had brought no
food with them kept an eye on the
stands, which gave "hot dogs and
coffee. ersrl
Nearly everybody bought a double
supply of eatables as lunch was ahead
of them before the game was called at

At O'Clock This Morning They
Started to Watch the Throngs.
New York, Oct. S.-The police depart
ment made elaborate arrangements to
handle the crowd. Inspector Sweeney
was in command of 100 traffic men and
100 mounted men in Eighth avenue
north of One Hundred and Fifty-fifth
street, while 20 patrolmen were on duty
on the Speedway. The police got busy
at a. M, although orders for a small
er force to take charge at Ii o clock
last night were issued yesterday.
The surface cars will be unloaded
at One Hundred and Fifty-f1fth street
and allowed to go empty to the switch
three blocks further north. Automo-
biles will be stopped also at One Hun
dred and Fifty-fifth street and must
be parked east and west of Eighth
avenue so that after the game the
machines east of that thoroughfare
will proceed down Seventh avenue,
while those to the west must use
Bradhurst avenue. In that way Eighth
avenue will be left for the exclusive
use of the surface cars and persons
on foot.

NOT FOR SUFFRAGISTS
School Board Refuse to Allow Build
ings Used for Politics.

A request of the Good Government
club that school buildings used for
suffrage meetings caused a lively dis
cussion at the board of education
meeting Monday night. The male mem
bers of the board were of the opinion
that the suffrage question is polii-
cal issue, and therefore it would not
be policy to grant the request. Mrs.
c. ]. Evans, the one woman mem
Der of the board, on the other hand
declared that suffrage is an educa-
tional proposition as well as political.
She favored granting the request
A special committee consisting of
Mrs. c. J. Evans w. E. Atchison and
L. NJ. Jones was appointed to discuss
the question and report at the next
board meeting which will probably not
be held until November 4, after the
suffrage campaign has closed.
