FIERCEST
BATTLE Of
SERIES ON

Boston, oct. l6.-One to 1 in tina
ninth inning
That tells the story as The Forum
goes to press today.
Todays game, the deciding contest
in the world series, was a heartbrealS-
cr. Bedient, who held New York 20
three hits the first and only other time
he pitched against the giants, was OPP
posed to the crafty veteran, Mathew
son. For inning after inning the game
was the ierCest, most stubbornly con
tested pitchers battle Of the series.
New York drew first blood. In the
third inning DevOre walked. He stole
second, was sacrificed to third and
trutted home when Merkle slammed
out a two-bagger, making the score
] to for New York.
Neither side could do anything more
until the seventh when Boston tied II
up.
StahI was on second and Wagner
on first in the seventh when Bedient
came TO bat. Stahl wigwagged him
back and called out Hendrickson to
bat in the pinch. AS has been done
several times before in the series, the
pinch hitter made good. He slammed
out a two -bagger. scoring StahL That
ended the scoring, and at the end Of
the ninth the game was still tied up.
Wood, who was batted out of the
box yesterday replaced Bedient.
The climax of the season Of base
ball came today in the eighth game
of the worlds championship series be-
tween the New York giants and the
Boston red sox, the pennant winners
of the National and American leagues
respectfully. at Fenway park. The ii
tIe of the worlds baseball champion
ship and the consequent honors and
major share Of the players profits. the
greatest in baseball history, are at
stake.
The giants, having won two games
in succession and tied the series,
when the red sOX needed but single
victory to seize the title predicted
freely they would be champions of the
world after today's game. The red
sox are in the fighting mood and made
more careful plans than in any OF the
previous games. ...

of the parents, Mr.. and Mrs. NJ B.
FELTON,, 165 Reeves avenue.
Playing with his twin brother, Rob-

terror reached the mother.
Mrs. Felton entered the chamber
to find her baby a mass of flames.
With her own hands she beat upon
the fire that enyeloped her little
boy. Her hands were burned by the
cruel flames, and before she could ex

been burned so badly that there was
no chance for his recovery,
1t was 2:45 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon when the accident happened;
at o'clock last night the little fell

Hardly a square inch of his little
body had not been scared and scorch-
ed by the flames. Even the inside of
his mouth. and his throat, had been
burned as he inhaled the flames.

Constantinople, Oct. 16.-Wireless to
kustendje, Roumania-The conclusion
of peace between Italy and Turkey was
fully anticipated by the Ottoman gov
ernment although the news did not
reach here until 4 o'clock this morn
ing and still is unknown to the public
generally.
In the meantime, the ministry of
marine was taking active steps to pre-
pare the Turkish fleet to take part
in the campaign against the Balkan
states.
Three battleships and two cruisers
which have been bottled up by italian
squadrons now have been stationed at
the mouth of the Black sea in order to
escort an army of invasion 10 the
Bulgarian coast. This movement of the
Turkish forces will compel the Bull
garian military commanders to divert
a part of their army from the main
attack on the Turks in Macedonia.
Notwithstanding the most elaborate
precautions taken by the Turkish
troops, Bulgarian bands have succeed
ed in destroying some important
bridges near lstip and Kotschana, so
that communication with Scutari is
completely interrupted and news from
the Montenegrin frontier is very
n1edgre.

CATTLE TRAIN
DROPS IN RIVER
ENGINEER KILLED, TWO INJURED
AND SIX CARS OF STOCK GO
OFF pRAWBRIDGE.

Minneapolis. Oct. 16.-One man
was killed, two were hurt and several
hundred cattle crushed or drowned
when a stock train went through an
open drawbridge near South, St Paul
today. Charles Kramer, the engineer,
is dead; Frank Webber, the fireman,
and John Garvin, the switchman,
were injured.
The train, consisting of a locomo-
tive, eighteen cars and caboose, APP

and the draw was open. A fog COW
cred the river and ii was impossible to
see the danger,
:, Daniel n Ttlahet. 4the bridge tendeR
asserts he did not blow the whistle
which tells trains to advance. The
train, running slowly, bored through
the fog and into the abyss, The
weight Of the engine was enough to
drag over the six cars following. All
were packed with live stock. The
bawling of the. cattle, the roar and
crash of the breaking cars and the
cries from the men about the scene
attracted hundreds of persons.
Rescue Crews Formed.
Rescue crews were formed at once.
and wreckinga trains were hurried to
the scene. One car was hanging over
the edge of the bridge and the cattle
in it were roped and dragged into the
river, where they swan ashore. Many
were so badly hurt that they had to
be killed. K.
The loss was about $4,000. The
cars were on the ST. Paul bridge and
the terminal tracks of the belt line
running to the stock yards from the
city. They were Great Northern and
Milwaukee rolling stock.
Kramer's body was recovered
shortly after the accident. An inves-
tigation of the bridge tenders story
will be made.
