MONSTER
Being Built in New York to Cross
Atlantic.

c. A. Allen and John j. Meckler of
New York are building an aeroplane
with which they think they can cross
the Atlantic. This aeroplane is a
monster. 1t is to cost S1l, 900. II will
weigh 5000 pounds. Its framework
is Of soft steel tubing. 1t is 104 feet
long and its main plane is 76 feet
wide. 1t will have gasoline tanks with
a capacity of 1900 gallons. There
will be an engine room. an operating
room and a sleeping apartment. The
two engineers expect to take turns
sleeping and working the engines on
the way across. There will be five
engines. Four will be for the con-
slant operation Of the propellers and
the fifth will be an auxiliary engine
which can be put in operation instant
~ II the others for any reason should
stop.
Two balance planes. 6 by 8 feet, one
at each side of the machine, are to
keep 1t from overturning. The ma
chine will be equipped with a series
Of alright tanks which will keep it
above water if the power should fail
and it should be necessary to make a
stop in mid-Ocean. The inventors say
they will be able to make 100 miles an
hour. but they expect to hold their
machine down to about sixty-hve miles
average. The auxiliary engine will
keep the aeroplane going at about Is
miles an hour.

"Toss Up for Winner of Big
Scries''- Hughey Jennings

and the third game will see Marquard
and OBrien hook up. That is the Way
l believe they will start out in each
game. but any one Of the six I have
mentioned may be called, in to finish
for another.
In my opinion stahl will no use
Hugh Bedient unless it is to finish q
game. Unquestionably he will start
the three I have mentioned in order
and pitch them back in the same or
der. The same with McGraw.
Carrigan Brainy; Meyers Can Clout.
Wood and Collins should prove the
most effective for the Red Sox, pro-
viding that Wood is in shape. In his
last W. games he seemed tired. Stahl
should not pitch him more than one
game every five days for the remaind-
er Of the season.
Tesreau. In my opinion. will be the
most effective man for New York.
Vanguard may. but that Is doubtful.
Mathewson proved easy for Boston in
n series these two clubs played sev-
eral years ago. He certainly has not
improved since that time. and Boston
today has a better hitting club thar
before.
In the catching department It is a
stand-of between the two clubs. Bill
Carrigan is a brainier backstop than
Snlel but the Indian IL a
much heavier hitter than Carrigan.
Wilson is a better player than Cady,
due to his superior hitting ability.
At first base it is again: a stand-oft.
Fred Merkle is a much faster and bet
ter fielder than Jake Stahl. but the
Boston manager is the better hitter
and balances the account that way.
Larry Doyle is a better hitter and
also a better fielder than any man
Boston will use at second. Doyle is a
great ball player anyway you look at
him. by far the best man on the
Giants infleld.
I believe that Wagner Is q better
shortstop than Fletcher. He covers
more territory in fielding and is a
harder and timelier hitter than
Fletcher.
Gardner would also be my choice ut
third. Herzog is a better base run
ner. but cannot hit the way Gardner
can.
When It comes to the outheld, Bos-
ten can eclipse anything In the Ma
tional league. individually and COL
lectively. the Red Sox surpass the
Giants in the outfield.
Now. take your choice.

SAYS
: HE'S NOT TIRED
Takes Exception to Reports
That Cub Players Had
Been Hitting Booze.

Chicago Sept. 3o.-Frank: L.
Chance. manager of the Chicago Ma
tional league baseball team. said here
yesterday that he had received no Of
1ictal notification that he had been de-
posed. from that position by Charles
w. Murphy, president Of the club and
tina he was ready to sign a contract
to manage the Cubs next year.. Chance
said that the operation he Just under
went in New York for the removal Of
a blood clot in his spinal canal was a
complete success and that he expected
to be able to play ball all next season.
Chance and Murphy did not meet
yesterday. Murphy was positive in his
assertion that he had NJ appointment
that there was no likelihood of Chance
being retained as manager.
Mr.. Murphy said that he was not
prepared to say anything about who
would manage the team next season.
Il want to say that I do not back up
an inch on my assertion that charges
that the Cubs lost pennants by drink
ing are false" said Chanie. "Sueh
charges. II any n makes them. no
matter who he is. are false. I will not
listen to them in silence. One thing
that may have started them is that 1
let my ball players do as they saw fit
within h bounds Of propriety. When
q Chicago ball player wanted a drink
he drank 1t openly where anyone
could see him and did not sneak up to
his room with a bottle or get in a
quiet place with a %congenial crowd
and keep q bell boy hustling drinks.
Consequently the few and harmless
drinks my men might take were
known to anybody that might be look
ing. But no player even came on the
field in uniform who was not in shape
to play.
1.-The operation 1 went through was
a complete success and my doctors tell
me I will be able to play ball next sea-
new to me as 1 prefer that to the
bench. I feel hat I have as good
baseball to deliver as ever I had and
I am ready to deliver it,"

Two great clubs will battle for the
worlds baseball championship next

the other lacks. but comparing them
and balancing up their assets It be:
comes a toss.up as to which club will
win. / would not attempt to pick eth
er. ..
The Giants have the advantage that
experience brings. Experience helped
the Athletics in the worlds series Of
1911. While New York has the edge
on Boston through this experience.
stahl's team has a shade over New
York on strength. I think Boston has
fielding club. the difference in fielding
being caused by Boston's great out
field.
Both clubs are game. equally 50.
New York showed gameness in the Sc
ries Of 1911 when they came back at
the Athletics after the championship
seemed hopelessly lost. They twice
this season when they arose to the &C.
casion and held their lead against an
onslaught by the Chicago Cubs.
People at that time said McGraw's
team: would weaken under the strain
and get on a losing streak from which
they could not recover. because things
were breaking badly for them. But
Luey CAME .Il6Ht OdChs uSlO ILlcIE lodO
and still have It.
No one was ever heard to question
the gameness of Boston. Stahl's club
is game. II anything.
In: this series much will depend on
managers. and in this respect McGraw
has the edge on Stahl. The New York
manager has been through many
nerve-breaking% seasons. has won sew
eral pennants and engaged in worlds
series and in that he held a utility
role. A crisis always arises In a big
series and McGraw. with his developed
g%eneralship. will have a handicap 9
his rival.
Consider the individual members Of
the. two contesting clubs. First, the
pitchers. I believe it's q toss-up. Each
club has three good men for this Sc
ries. stahl will. in all probability rely
on Joe Wood, Ray Collins and BUCK
O'Brien. while McGraw will assign
JEFF Tesreau, Christy Mathewson and
"Rube" Vanguard.
!. think the first game will find Tes-
reau opposing Wood; in the second
contest Collins and Mathewson will
undoubtedly be the pitching choices.
