WE'RE A CRIPPLED TEAM
Said McGraw Before Game, but He
Was Very Confident.

Polo Grounds, Oct. 9.-New York
and Philadelphia, pennant winners of
the National and American leagues,
met here this afternoon in the third
contest of the worlds baseball series.
Thirty-fiVe thousand persons, undis-
mayed by the threat of rain, came to
view the struggle. Each team had a
victory to it's credit before today's
game. A soggy field, drenched by
hours of hard rain, slowed up the
fielding of both teams.
Umpire RigIer inspected the
grounds al 1890 O'Clock and reported
the diamond in shape to play if there
was no more rain.
crowd of weather anxious spectators
that stretched for four or five blocks
away from the entrances, passed into
the unreServed stands. Scores OF
women had stood for several hours
in line and they were just as lively
as the men in the rush for the front
row seats.
Were a crippled team remarked
John McGraw grimly, but we will
have good club in the field today as
Mack's men will find out"
The Athletics came to the Polo
grounds with every member in fine
playing condition.
The Athletics and the Giants came
upon the field together shortly before
l o'clock and the greeting cheers Of
the crowds had scarcely died away
before the Giants started in long
batting practice. There was general
cheer when Mathewson and Wiltse
marched across the field together.
They were regarded as the heroes of
yesterdays combat and they had to
repeatedly doff their caps in recoS-
milton of the crowds plaudits.
The sun came out about 1 o'clock
and indications of a clear afternoon
helped keep the crowd in good humor
During New York's field practice,
Merkle went back to his station at
first base. His ankle seemed much
improved and Manager McGraw said
Merlzle would play today. The crowd
had now filled all the upper and lower
grandstands and every seat in the
back field bleachers was occupied with
hundreds pressing for admittance at
the gates. Bush and Lapp and Shaw
key and Thomas warmed up for the
Athletics on the side lines. Umpire
Rigler will give the decision on balls
and strikes; Connolly will take care
of the bases, while Umpire KLEIN was
stationed in left field and Umpire
Egan in right field.
Manager McGraw sent word to the
press box that TeSreau and Mclean
would be the battery for New York
Bush and Schang were announced
as the battery for the Athletics.

Return From Investigation of
the Fish Hatchery.
NO ACTION HAS Been TAKEN
Gen. Dawson Makes Statement
Regarding the Situation.
Finds Nothing Against Dyche
Warranting a Suit.

Members of the state executive coun-
ell returned today from an 'investi-
CATION of conditions at the state fish
hatchery at Pratt. No action was TAX
en- by the council either as to the fu-
ture management of the institution or
the final disposition of the charges
filed by G. T. Rankin of Hutchinson
against Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish
and game warden. Rankin was not
located in Hutchinson and could not
be called as a witness by the council.
Governor Hodges, who accompanied
Attorney General Dawson, State
Treasurer Akers, and State Auditor
Davis on the Pratt trip, did not return
to Topeka today and is in Winfield.
General Dawson acted as spokesman
for the members of the executive
council in the discussion of the Pratt
hatchery. He declared that without
some definite evidence from Rankin it
would be impossible to prosecute the
custer suit sought against Prof. Dyche.
AS to conditions at the hatchery, Daw-
son declares that he is inclined to be-
lieve that they are good. but that he
will prosecute the custer suit if real
evidence is furnished. AS for the fish
and game warden's apparently incon-
sistent newspaper interviews. the at
torney general points out that such
etClIOII IS IOI d NlOldllOl OF the statutes
and not covered by the custer act.
Discussing the investigation and the
opinion of the executive council re-
garding conditions at the hatchery,
General Dawson stated:
