CHARLTON TAMES A SPIDER
Prisoner Still Ignorant Of Delay Of His
Trial Till April

Rome, oct. Porter Charlton has
not been informed that his trial will
not be held until April so he is still
hopeful of quick decision. He has
followed the course of the traditional
prisoner and has tanned a spider with
which he whiles away his hours.
He says that, while prison life here
Is rOugher than in America. he has
nothing TO complain of and that his
jailors are extremely kind What
causes him the greatest discomfort Is
the approach Of cold weather which is
becoming marked i'm Como. The floors
and walls Of his cell are stone, with
no method Of tcmpering the atmos-
pherc.
Surprise is caused by the fact that
Charlton is still without counsel. No
reply has been received by Deputy
Camera to the letter which he wrote
to the prisoners father.

to 6: If he happened to be in New
York the odds were 10 to that the
Giants would win.
Hence the unusual situation pre-
vailed that bettors i'm both cities were
willing to give odds on their home
teams. This situation obtained FOR
several Gays until Larry Doyle, cap
tain of the Giants, was injured in an
automobile accident and center fielder
Snodgrass strained tendon in his

grass might be unable to play in the
series were instantly reflected and bet
tors i'm New York were unwilling to
risk more than even money on their
team IN the face of these reports.
Many Freak Wagers.
By far the greatest amount of mon
ey placed in the first few days after
the opening date was announced was
wagcd in so-callcd freak bets. There
was no end of these. Reports from
Chicago were that a bet could be had
en- anything pertaining To the games,
and the Following were quoted as some
of the odds given on bets made there:
Even money on the Giants and Ath-
letics.
Two to one that Bender does not
win one game.
Four to one that Bender does not
win two games.
Seven to FIVE that Mathewson does
not win two games.
Twenty-Five to one that the series
goes over four games.
Two to one that the series does not
so seven games.
one hundred to one that the Giants
do not win four straight
one hundred to one that thc Athlct-
les do not win four straight.
In New York one bet was recorded.
at odds of four to FIVE, that Mathew
son would pitch the .irst game. An
other bet was reported at even money
that Demarce would win his first
game. 4 third bet was that the series
would go six games. This bet was al
so at even money. one Giant cnthu-
siast offered one to four that the
Giants would win the iirst three games
but found no takers.
Infinite were the variations on wbicn
the early bettors laid their money.
one man bet even money that the
Athletics would make more runs dur
ing the total games than the Giants
would. Another offered even money
that the Athletics would lead In hit
ting.
In both New York and Philadelphia
the usual plant was heard that plen-
~ of money was being offered on the
home team without takers.
