So well did he do the Job that when
he was asked 10 handle the sale OF
tickets again this year. Secretary
Heydler begged to be excused because
his success had already lost him
enough friends in previous worlds
series. He failed 70 satisfy ther re-
quests for tickets and they got

The prospects for a ticket sale that
will come very near pleasing every
one are very bright this year. The
tickets will be sold by the clubs
themselves. All reserved seats win
be cold for three games, and in the
event of three games not being played
the money for the game unplayed will

Since their inception in 1904 there
has always been q big scandal about
the handling OF tickets after each
worlds series Spectators got pos
session of a number of tickets and the
spectators were compelled TO pay ex-
orbitant prices 20 sec the games.
This evil was remedied very little
until last year. In the series Of 1911.
between the Giants aud Athletics. the
handling of the. tickets left a bad taste
in the mouths OF the fans of both New
York and Philadelphia Persons who
had been regular patrons throughout
the playing season we're deprived of
tickets. while out-of-town orders we're
being filled. This had also been the
case in all previous worlds series.
Last year in the series between the
Giants and Red Sox. the handling OF
tho tickets was probably better than
ever before Fewer tickets fell into the
hands of spectators. and more genral
all-around satisfaction was derived.
The sale was under the supervision Of
the national baseball commission. and
John Heydler. secretary of that body,
acted as its representative.
At the Polo grounds Heydler re-
served only the upper tier of the
grandstand This enabled many per-
sons who could not get into the
stadium the year before TO see the
games. He also handled the New
York preferred list" TO the advan-
tage of the public When he had
filled the orders of the national COM
mission. the two contesting clubs and
their players. the press. the managers
of other clubs, in both minor and
major leagues and various officials
connected with the series, he still had
$500 reserved seats left for the pub
lie. Not more than two or three hun
dred Of these reserved seat tickets
fell into the hands of spectators.
In Boston almost the same con-
ditions prevailed Many OF the spec
ulators bought tickets secondhand
and lost money in their enterprise
Not few Of. the tickets that were
bought at premium in the hope that
they might be resold at a gain. were

That is the question that the fans

well recall his good work with the

on both Mathewson and Marquard,

EXPERTS AT

BIG SERIES
Chance, LajOie, Griffith and

tics to Win
NEWSPAPER WRITERS
PICK GIANTS As BEST

Opinions regarding the outcome Of
the worlds series this year appears.
to be unusually divided this year.
Prominent baseball players and
writer's are predicting a very close
series of games. with low scores pre-
dominating. All speak of the luck or
break of the game being an import
ant factor in the ultimate winning
Of the championship.
The same situation has developed
in the betting Outside of the home
cities Of the two competing clubs the
wagering is at even money. In Phila-
delphia the Athletics are slight favor
ties over the New York team, and in
New York the home team supporters
are quoting odds of 10 to 3 on the
Giants to defeat the American League
representatives.
Expressions Of opinions on the part
of managers and players of other
clubs are beginning to be heard in
New York with the gathering of the
advance guard for the opening game
Tuesday Among those who are
favoring the Athletics are Frank
Chance. Napoleon Laioie. Clark Grif-
nth and Umpire Billy Evans. Some
of those who are naming the Giants
as probable winners are George Stall
ings. Johnny Evers, Fred Clarke and
Ty Cobb.
Hughey Jennings and Bill Dahlen
have stated that the teams are so
evenly matched that the outcome Of
the series is a toss-up, with luck
playing a leading part
A consensus among 80 of the lead
ing baseball writer's of the big league
circuits shows that Is favor the
Giants to win, against . for the
Athletics and frankly undecided.
Almost without exception. however,
/ they qualify their predictions by stat
ing that the series of 1913 will be
very evenly contested and that the
slightest break in the luck of the
game will swing the championship
one way or the other. The chief ad-
vantage accorded the Giants is their
strength in the pitching department
The Athletics adherents concede this
point. but contend that the superior
batting ability of the Philadelphia
club will more than offset the slight
difference in the twirling form Of the
two stats.

BRITISH GOVERNMENT PLANS
TO CONTROL OPIUM COLONY
[uNlrnp pnnss 1nAsrp wmr.1

Hong Kong, Dec. 17.-In addition to
the long standing agreement which it
maintains with the opium raisers Of
India, and the monopoly which it main.
tains in the Straits settlement, the
British government today set in motion
plans to monopolize and to absolutely
control the raising, marketing and sale
of opium in the crown colony Of Hong
Kong, on the southern coast of China.
Now the plan becomes effective on
March |, 1914, and has been ordered
in an attempt to counteract the deficit
of $2,O36,6l6 Mexican in the budget of
1914. This abolishes the opium farm
system which has been in operation here
for years.
BY taking over the opium farm, and
establishing an official monopoly, the
government expects to reap a profit
of Sl,579,360 Mexican which will come
within $5OO,OOO Mexican Of wiping out
the dreaded $2,O36,6l6 slump in the gov.
ernmental revenues.
Caustic criticism Of this plan which
will make the crown colony a traffick.
er in pernicious drug for profit has
called forth denials from Claude Sew.
ern, the Official administering the gov.
ernment, and other Hong Kong Off
cials, who contend that the plan is the
best that could be devised under the
circumstances.
