FENWAY PARK, BOSTON, Mass, Oc-
tober 16.-Before the game today condi-
tons favored the Giants, the fact that
they came from behind, together with the
reported trouble on the Boston team
seeming to give them a decided advan-
tage. There are denials galore regarding
the reported fight between Wood and
OBrien before yesterdays game, but it
is learned from an authoritative source
that O'Brien struck Wood
! 1t seems Wood expected to pitch the
game in New York Monday and that
he instructed his bro her to bet on
him.. which he did to the, extent of
about $500, but at the last moment
OBrien was substituted and the game
was lost Wood was sore and, II is
said, when he arrived at the clubhouse
yesterday afternoon he uppraIded
OBrien for making a balk which Iost
the game. O'Brien resented the CRU
cism, it is sad, and deliberately hat
ing him out Wood was revived aI.er
with the result that he was slaughtered
in the first inning.
Attendance Falls Off.
The weather is cool this afternoon.
There are no clouds in the sky, whi.e
stiff wind is blowing. A natural fail
ing of in the attendance indicates the
Boston public has apparently weakened
in it's support of the team. The fact
that the Boston Loyal Rioters, an or
SANITATION at the head of which Mayor
FITZGERALD placed himself. had run-in
with Secretary McRoy Of the Boston
club as a result of which the rootels
refused to attend the final game, also
had its effect.
The rooterS attended games in both
cities They were 500 strong. but yes
terday Mccoy failed to hold out a sec
ton of the bleachers for them, and the
rooters passed resolution demanding
McRoy's discharge, and pledged them
selves to attend no more games while
he is identified with the club.
Stahl Picks Bedient.
Stahl decided on Bedient after watch
ing both him and Wood warm up.
Mathewson was McGraw's selection, al
though Vanguard was kept warmed up.
OLoughlin was behind the plate and
Rigler on the bases, with KLEIN and
Evans in the Outfield.
Boston players started as if they in
tended to play one of their best games.
They were full of life, and Bed.ent went

same form he did on his previous APP

TO MAKE RATE ZONES.
Bill Introduced to Regulate Charges
Of Express Companies.

Washington. April 2-The house
Interstate and foreign commerce COM
mittee today reported favorahly a bill
TO amend the law giving the inter-
state commerce commission authority
over express companies. Provision
would be made for rate zones, the
charges varying according to the dis
lance the package was carried from
the point of origin.
A close working arrangement also
would be provided between the ex-
press companies and the rural free

partment.
The bill would govern the transport
tatlon of packages not exceeding IL
pounds in weight and with valuation
of $50 or less. No allowance would
be made for the expense of transfer
from one express company to another.
The rates would be fixed as follows:
Between any two points in the United
States more than 1000 miles apart,
II cents per pound; not more than
1000 miles apart, 10 cents; not more
than 1900 miles apart, Z cents; not

The provision for cooperation between
the express companies and the rural free

ure. Express matter destined for a farm
living on a rural mail route would be
delivered by the express agent at the
nearest point to it's destination, where.
provided the shipper had attached the
Necessary postage it would be turned over
to the mail carrier through the regular
channels for delivery. Rural carriers
likewise would be authorized to accept
matter on which postage had been paid
for delivery to the express company.
Failure of any express company to car
~ out the provisions of the law would
be punished by a fine in each case of $1G0
and attorneys fees, together with such
damages as the person aggrieved might
collect in court.

KILLED HIS BUSINESS.
Witness Charges Postal Authorities
With Running Lewis.

ST. Louis. April 2.-William C..
Hunter of Chicago, testifying as an
expert publisher in the trial OF E. G..
Lewis. charged with using the mails
to defraud, said the Lewis publica-
tions in 1907 were among the best
mail order mediums in the United
States.
The withdrawal of second class
mail privileges, he said, had a tend

it was twice as expensive to revive a
