Boston, Oct 9.-It is practically impos-
sible 10 secure hotel accommodations in
this city tonight. The army OF New
York fans" who are staying over to see
the tie game played off tomorrow have
snapped up every room in the city, and
those who have not been fortunate
enough 10 secure quarters are offering
premiums for any sort of sleeping quar-
tiers. but without avail. AS soon as Silk
OLoughlin, umpire-in-chief this after
moon, called the game and announced
+ that it would be played off here to-rnor-
row, the New York 'rooters' swarmed
down on all available telephones and
booked their quarters over the wire.
Those who waited are facing the pleas
ant prospect OF wandering around the
streets after the theatres and cafes close
up for the night.
Josh Devore's right arm, which was hit
during batting practice on the Polo
Grounds yesterday afternoon. is so badly
swollen that the little fellow may be out
of the game during the remainder of the
series. Devore tried TO warm up here TO-
day, but the arm was so weak that Nc
Graw sent Becker 70 centre field and
moved Snodgrass to left.
The city has gone baseball mad, and the
more rabid fans" are now shouting that
If the Giants were unable to win with
Matty in the box they will not be able to
down the Red Sox at all. or. IL victory is
theirs. it will not be by margin Of more
than one game.
The Royal Rooters" were out IN force
again to-day. Headed by their brass
hand, they marched around the park and
entered the field through gate in front
of the centre field bleachers. A blare OF
martial music heralded their approach.
but once on the scene Of action they fell
hack on the old reliable "Tessie" and
l'Tammany." There is not a man In the
ranks but believes that these songs con-
stitute fetch which will see their favor
ties through to victory in the end.
The Boston Elks were also on hand
with full brass band They drove down
10 the park in 'rubberneck autos" and
occupied seats in the grandstand. where
they kept the "fans'' amused by the
tunes. Unfortunately both bands insisted
on playing at the same time The band
Of the Elks had varied repertoire, while
the Rooters stuck to their two favorites.
At times the discord was almost sooth-
ing to the nerves.
In military array, fours front, the
Rioters marched to the centre field seats
which had been set aside for them, and
throughout the game they caused a riot
Of noise. Many fang leaped out OF the
regular bleachers end tried TO force an
entrance into the sanctuary Of the
original bugs" but a Gordon of mounted
police herded them all back whence they
came. One woman was insistent in her
demands to sit In the midst of the loyal
ones, but husky cop lifted her bodily
over the fence, and made her go back.
The sun came out in the second half OF
the nth inning and shone down fiercely
INTO right field. Murray and snodgrass
at once changed places, for the former
cannot cover the sunheld.
Some enterp1sing vendors were on
hand with pennants bearing the legend
In white block letters: Red Sox. Worlds
Champions, 1912" The enthusiastic
fans" snapped them up, and the enter
prising youths reaped harvest.
The wreck Of a freight train held up
the traffic on the New Haven Railroad
last night and the midnight specials ar
rived in this city from one to two hours
late.
Chief Meyers settled all doubts as to
which tribe OF Indians he belongs. II am
Camilla Indian. a branch Of the Mis-
tion nation he said. THE name is pro-
nounced kaw Wee Yah" The chief said
jokingly that he did not object to being
called an Apache, Sioux or a Comanche,
when reference 10 his mighty bat is
made for II all goes TO uphold the honor
OF the Indian race. One fan said that he
knew now where Hughie Jennings got
his famous "Ee-Yah" yell.
Cy Hgler Is nursing a badly swollen
knee as result of collision with Fred

Polo Grounds after the game yesterday.
Cy could not run without pain. but he
