were the first 10 leave the train. Behind
them came McGraw. with Murray, while
the other players trooped behind. The
players looked solemn. and apparently
were anxious 10 get away quickly, but the
enthusiasm and good nature of the crowd
made themselves felt and brought smiles
to their faces.

a vigorous slap on the back and wished

There was a little force TO the greeting.
and for a moment Murray glared. but the

and Murray smiled. Somebody proposed a
cheer for Fletcher and the crowd yelled.

The Athletics. flushed with a third VIC
tory. arrived at the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Station at 1925 last night, and were
cheered by practically the same crowd OF
fans" which had greeted the Giants
few hours before. There were many
small bows in the crowd, and as Connie
led the players 10 waiting taxicaos the
Youngsters shouted to him: LOOK out
for Matty tomorrow. He's working
again" Mack smiled.
The players Immediately went to the
Hotel Somerset, on West 47th street, ana
a few Philadelphia supporters were there
to greet them. A modest fan VINO mad
failed to leave his name, had left at the
hotel office a long. narrow package al

package, but Murphy opened 1t and found

Murphy was asked what he thought or

Sees a Chance

John j. McGraw, manager of the
Giants. was in fighting mood last night
on his arrival from Philadelphia with
his team. as II he saw looming before
him a record for Connie Mack that will
take him years to equal, If ever. He
was as energetic as ever, and there was
a grim expression on his face.
1T looks pretty bad he said to an
inquiring friend. but we still have
chance. Boston pulled out Of worse
hole against the Pirates In 1908. II they
beat us tomorrow they will know they
have been in ball game"
Connie Mack almost smiled after the
game, but seemed no more willing TO
talk than usual. lie did say, however,;
THAT was a good game to win, as II

Giants made n bold stand at the end,
but Bender pulled himself together in

final. struggle at the Polo Grounds for

gan 10 gather at the gates before dark
ness fell last night The dismal prediction
OF the weather man-increasrng cloudi-
ress, fog and every prospect of showers
during the nightmare no difference 10
many hundreds OF bows who meant to Sc
cure places at the head OF the line or
perish in the attempt
The first boy at the Polo Grounds was
Joseph Riggs, sixteen years old. who
lives at No. sos West Nth street. He ar
rived at o'clock in the afternoon with
materials for making bench TO repose
upon during the long hours and large
snack of lunch to fortify the inner man.
The next corners were not far behind
Riggs They struggled along In twos and
threes until. by s o'clock, there were some
70 or 100 in the line. Most of them dis
played the same forethought as Riggs and
came provided with luncheons and board
beds. During the evening they refreshed
themselves with liberal rotations of cof-
fee. bought over from nearby restaurants.
and further kept up their courage by
singing and playing on harmonious.
Inspector Titus early foresaw that a
goodly number of men would be needed
70 handle the crowd that all signs indi-
Gated would be on hand by O'Clock IN
the morning, and at midnight he detailed
twenty-five patrolmen to duty at the
grounds.
The hard luck that the Giants have
been playing in seemed TO require some
special demonstration OF sympathy and
confidence from the youthful fans, and
a crowd collected In the evening around
the Hotel Braddock, at l26th street and
Eighth avenue. which is the local head
quarters of the team. Now and then a
player drove up to the hotel in taXicao
and the crowd gave him hearty cheer
Nobody seemed inclined to discount the
chances OF the game being postponed on
account of the weather. and there were
no assertions from the ranks during the
night Intense loyalty to the Giants IN
their hour of trial kept every man at
his post.

The Giants don't seem 10 have any

were wrong in the seventh and eighth
innings. when they got after Bender
and almost pulled a hopeless looking
game out of the fire. did not mean
that they were quitting. Nothing Ike
that. They're fighters. those fellows;
but l was disappointed. and still am. at
their failure to jump in there and start
something sooner.
Bender pitched good ball for six
innings, but il looked TO me as If he
was saving himself all he could. and
the Giants did not seem TO realize this
until they'd got a man on. and then
Bender would pitch his head off and
make them look foolish.
The Chief was fairly tottering in
the eighth and ninth innings and was
going badly in the seventh, but when
the Giants scored their first three runs,
thanks largely TO that home run by
Fred Merkle-say, that ball was trav-
cling. 1t almost went on dead line
TO deep left, but the Giants had one
break in their favor when II bounded
into the bleachers. If it had been a
little higher it would have carried
there, as there was plenty Of power
behind II.
