FENWAY PARK, BOSTON,
Oct. 9.-One of the most desper-
ately contested games of the
worlds series ended here this aft
ernoon in tie game when dark
ness forced the closing of the
second contest in the world s
baseball championship contest be-
tween the Giants and the Red
Sox. Three pitchers-Collins,
Hall and Bedient-occupied the
slab in turn for the home team,
while the veteran Mathewson
bore the brunt of II innings of
desperate fighting, winding up
the afternoons work by retiring
his last three opponents in order.
The Giants got up badly, put
ting Mathewson in hole in the
first inning, when the Sox piled
up a three-run lead.
Stahl's men continued in front
until the eighth inning, when the
strain proved too much for Col
Inns, and the Giant stick WELD
ers forced in three runs, took
the lead for the first time and

LEVY WILL BE
IL MILLS ONLY

The city tax levy will not be
raised to 13 mills.
It will remain as fixed Monday
at IL mills for 1913.
The commissioners had a
fright last evening when it was
suddenly discovered that no pro-
Vision had been made for paying
the light and water bills which
will be due the light and water
department in 1913 for service.
Here was a bill of about $4,000
that had been overlooked in
making up the budget.
They began to talk about a
'13 mills levy, but this morning
Controller Meads came in and
showed that If they would sim
ply reduce the water and light
bills paid by the city to the same
basis as the bills charged the
school board, park board and
other public institutions the city
would have plenty of money to
get, along on.

In running down every clue,
the police found a telegram sent
to Mrs. Brooks by her sister, Fay
Van Govender, from Portland,
telling her that Fillmore was on
on October 8, but was never re-
ceived owing to a mistake in the
address. 1t reads:
Elmer received letter. On his
way up there on 10 O'Clock train,
but don't know your address.
Think he will look up Mrs. Evans.
Be nice to him IL he finds you,
but tell him the truth. Couldn't
keep him from going. Will write
tomorrow"
The Mrs. Evans mentioned In
Lou Evans. well known to the po-
lice as a habitue of the tenderloin
district. True to the dead wom-
ans sisters intuition, Fillmore did
locate the Evans woman and
asked for the address of Mrs.
Brooks, but was refused informa-
tion.
1t is believed he located her
through a ruse, by calling the
Annex bar where Fincham worked
and asking for her address on the
pretense that Ii was a telegraph
company holding a message for
Mrs. Brooks.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fillmore, father
and mother of the suspect, left
Dnrt1axaI dttr Inc he 10 -
last week, and it is thought are
in Tacoma at present, although
the police know nothing of their
address. Whether their son Ii
with them, or knows of theiH
whereabouts is only a conjecture.
Among the dead woman's eff
fects today was found a postcard
addressed to Mrs. Grace Monroe,
Parkhurst apartments, Portland.
1t is thought this was the name
under which she lived In that
city.
Detective Captain John Fitz-
gerald today said he had every
hope of catching Fillmore. All
trains and boats are being watch
ed. Puyallup and Roy and other
neighborhood towns have been
notified, as well as Vancouver,
Victoria, Gle Elum, Portland and
other points.
The remains of the dead woman
are at the Hoska- -Buckley-Kin
mortuary, awaiting word from
her relatives In Portland.
The body shows that each OF
the five bullets took effect, three
in the neck and head, two in the
body. They were fired at close
range, the powder scorching the
skin and setting fire to her
clothing.
H. A. Mcdonald. owner Of the
house in which Fincham and his
common-law wife lived. returned
today from California, leaving
his wife there, and Is cleaning
up the disordered apartments.
Neighbors say there never was
more quiet woman than Mrs.
Brooks. None Of them had seen
her more than twice aimee she
took the apartments.

Every avenue of escape for the
murderer of Grace Brooks, aged
80 years, the woman who was
shot last night I'm her apartments,
12121e South / ST., is today be-
ing closely watched by the police.
Elmer Fillmore, a former lover, is
being sought, as a suspect.
The dead woman left Fillmore
i'm Portland a year ago, il is said,
and has been living i'm this city
since that time with Lloyd
Fincham, a bartender at the An
mex saloon. Fillmore arrived in
Tacoma Monday and located his
former sweetheart yesterday. i.
During the afternoon yesterday
persons living in the neighbor-
hood of the house, the upper por-
tion of which was occupied by
Bartender Fincham and Mrs
Brooks, noticed a strange man
lettering about. Later this man
tried to enter the place by means
of a pass key through the front
door.
At about 6:20 o'clock last
evening, ]. 9. Madden, who lives
in the house next door, heard five
shots fired in rapid succession in
the Fincham home. AS he rushed
from his yard into that of the
house adjoining, a man answer
ing closely the description of Fill
more was seen running rapidly
away In the darkness, shielding
his face and head with his. arms.
Madden hurried up the stairs
which ascended to the upper part
of the house where the shots had
been fired and found Mrs.
Brooks lying face downward In a
pool of blood, dead. Five empty
cartridges lay on the carpet.
The police instantly rushed a
party of detectives to the scene
and combed the district for the
murderer, but availed nothing.
1t was found from the appear
ance of the room that the woman
had been surprised. but that she
had put up a desperate battle for
her life. Marks on her hands indi1
cate that she struck her murder

sent Collins to the bench.
The veteran Mathewson's VIC
tory was short-lived, however, as
double and single in the Sox's s
half put them on even terms
again. The ninth was a blank
for both sides, but in the tenth
the Giants went into the lead
with margin of one run, which
the Sox promptly duplicated in
their half.
Neither scored in the eleventh,
and the umpires called the con-
test and announced it would be
played off on this field tomor-
row.

BLIND MUSICIAN
RUN DOWN BY AUTO

Carl Guiott, we'll known musician,
who just recently recovered from a
broken leg, had a narrow escape from
serious injury today wnen an auto
mobile driven by Walter McCorm-
mach, proprietor of the Pendleton
Auto company, ran him down at the
corner of Main and Court streets. For
tunately, he escaped with only Sc
we're bruises although physicians at
first thought bone in his ankle had
been broken.
Guiatt, who is almost totally blind,
was crossing the street when the au-
tomoble coming north on Main street
started to turn up Court. Seeing the
man in front of him, Mr.. McCorm-
mach applied the brakes Immediately
and the wheels slid for distance of
twenty-five feet before the machine
collided with the man. However, the
force of the impact was sufficient to
hurl Guiott to the street and he was
dragged for a considerable distance
Medical aid was at once secured and
the unfortunate man taken to his
home where he is recovering from the
shock
Witnesses of the accident are not
inclined to blame the driver of the
car,
