THIEVES FAIL IN
 EFFORT TO BREAK DOWN FACTORY DOOR

Several minor robberies and one at- tempt at burglary were added last night to the long list rolling up in Bridgeport and the vicinity during the past week. The most serious is that reported by the Columbia Nut & Bolt Co, in the West End where a des- perate attempt to gain entrance to the offices of the company resulted in the iron covered outer doors bein griddled with driII-holes. An attempt to "jin- my the door having failed the drill was resorted to in an effort to pene- trate the lock. It is thought that the thieves were frustrated by the ap- proach of some be1ated pedestrian OF an officer upon his rounds.
 The apartments of Mrs. Charlotte Wheeler, upon the third floor of 418 Koesuth were entered yesterday af- valued at $50, a chain and loo2<et valued at '$35, and a bag said to con- tain $15 in bills were secured. The watch bore the monogram 'R. H. W. The work is thought to be that of To- cal sneak thieves or boys who entered the apartment from the rear while the occupant was called to the front door by the ring of a bell.
 Search is being made for a silver card-case and silver-mesh bag, lost or stolen from the sitting room of the tertaining friends.
 Investigation is being made into the alleged loss of $1O.5O taken from Mrs. Austin, who lives at 43 Cottage St., last night. The exact manner in which the theft was perpetrated is not aS yet known.
 Edward O'Connor 1897 Fairfield ave- nue reported the loss of $94, which he alleges was taken by a former room mate at that address. Search is be- ing made for the suspect whose name is in the possession of detectives.
 The home of Mrs. Charles Krause, 50 Butler street was entered this morn- ing by thieves who abstracted $15 from a hand bag hanging behind the door while a valuable gold watch, silver toilet articles and S10O in bills in the same room were overlooked. The theft was performed while Mrs. Krause had gone to the street to purchase a morn ing paper and was almost immediately discovered when she went to return the change from a bill to her bag.

Peerless Matty Picked by Mo Craw
 to Face Bedient- Dismal Day
CBY GRANTLAND R1CE.)

Boston, Oct. 12.-The Giants and Red Sox cIashed at 2 this afternoon under adverse weather conditions. The day was dark and the field was shrouded in fog until a few minutes before the contest started.
 This is the fifth game of the series.
 The Red Sox have won two, the Giants have captured one and one battle was a tie. Manager NIcGraw had both NIarquard and NIathewson warming up but finally selected NIatty. Manager StahI of the Sox picked Hugh Bedient, the youngest member of his staff.
 It was 12:5O when the first of the Giants stalked in through the gates and it was actually several minutes before the bIeacherites, half hidden in the fog, spotted them.
 Under these conditions. the contest developed into a greater gamble than ever. The series has been freaxy and bezaarine to date without combined in to develop further frenzy. It was really the most freakish day on which a worlds series game was ever called but fog or no fog the bIeachers were Jammed to capacity earlier than in any previous game of the series, thou sands having sat patiently in the chilling mist for hours.
 The appearance of such vast stretches of muggy weather put an- other kink in McGraw's pitching dope. He had first planned to work Mathewson but as the dark day was manufactured for Marquard's slash ing speed, he had the Rube warming up with the Big Gun, with Jeff Tes- reau, WiItse and Ames alongside
 @'I'H try them all out,'' he remark ed, EIand pick the guy who is right. We need this game and can take no chances
 It was a great day for a man with a fast curve ball and real speed. It was shown in the early batting prac- tice what both clubs were up against because outfielders and infieIders con- tnuaIly misjudged or ducked away from low line hits.
