Detroit's Tigers and Philadelphia
Athletics were struggling In the final
series OF the baseball season in the
Tigers lair. Upon the outcome de-
pended the championship of the Amer
lean league, and the chance to meet
the Chicago Cubs for the worlds
championship. The Athletics were
ahead in the race, and although
Mack's team had not ripened to its
null strength 1t looked as II 1t would
hold Its lead. The game was the first
OF four that were to be played in De-
troit, and in the eighth inning the
Tigers were leading by the narrow
margin OF one run. Every member of
the two teams knew that the first
game probably would decide the Sc
ries.
Detroit was clinging desperately to
the one run lead that was earned by
two terrific drives by Crawford and
Cobb. Donovan was pitching magnif1-
GENTLY, yet he could not prevent the
Athletics from hitting; time and again
the Tigers were thrown back on the
defensive and saved by the won
derful fielding feats of Cobb and
Bush. The eighteen athletes we're
strained to the breaking point and
each one was ION his toes" every in

balls fall safe almost every time, just

He started the instant the ball was

who, seeing the victory snatched from
his team by sheer luck, had turned on
the wonderful burst of speed that has
made him the marvel of baseball. It
looked as II Cobb might reach the

JURORS IN FLYNN
CASE STILL OUT
Panel Retires Again After
\ Quizzing Court on
Charge.
PATERSON. N. j.. July 3.


Although the jury which heard the
trial of Elizabeth Gurley Flynn was
out exactly twenty-seven hours at
245 o'clock this afternoon, they had
not arrived at verdict and the prob
abilities were that the jurymen would
not reach decision until late this
evening, II at all.
J The jury retired at 1145 o'clock yes
terday morning.
At 1925 o'clock this afternoon Judge
Klenert called the jury from the de-
liberating chambers and inquired II
the members had arrived at verdict
The court was informed that no de-
cision had been reached. He then
asked If the Jury required any in
structions, and one juror wanted to
know If he could secure a copy of the
judges charge.
Judge Klenert answered that this
could not be granted, although he was
willing to instruct the juryman on
any question of law. He urged the
members Of the jury to bring in a ver-
dict one way or the other. stating
that the case was an important one
and had proved very costly to the
State
The jurymen then heard the law on
which the indictment of Miss Flynn
was based The court instructed the
jury to consider only the words used
in the indictment and 1t was for
them to determine If that language
had been used by the defendant.
One of the jurors wanted to know
IL th{ jurymen could select a new
man as their foreman. William
Waldron declared he was not capa-
BILE of filing the post. The court an
swered that such a course would not
be advisable. Judge Klenert was then
asked If 1t was a crime to do picket
duty, and he replied that the jury
did not have to consider that ques-
tion, as 1t had nothing to do with the
charge on which they were deliberat-
ing.
Another juror announced that they
could undoubtedly reach a verdict
within fifteen or twenty minutes after
they retired again, but his prediction
failed to materialize even two hours
later.

The second reason given is for time
TO verify the signatures of the prop
erty-owners who are protesting

the hearing is to await word from

About forty million parcel post pack

largest postoffices, where about half
the postal business Of the United States
Is handled. During the month. at the
fifty largest offices, 1885. 433 packages
were handled. and the amount Of bust
ness done the last two weeks OF Janu-
airy exceeded by more than 100000
packages that done the first two weeks.
A statement irsued by the Postoffice
partment reads:
Chicago exceeds all other cities In
