Philadelphia, Oct. l0--With the first

away by the score OF to /, the Boston
Braves waited expectantly for the second
clash with the Philadelphia Athletics
this afternoon when the second of the
pitching "triumverate," was slated TO go
in and try to duplicate the wonderful
performance of Dick Rudolph yesterday.
To Rudolph more than any other play.

masterful game throughout, allowing but
five scattered hits and holding the pow
erful attack of the Athletics at safe
distance. Indeed, had it not been for an
error by Moran in letting Strunk's single
go through him in the second inning,
Rudolph would have scored clean shut
out.
On the other hand the veteran Bender
cracked under the strain and was driven
from the box in the sixth inning after
eight safe hits had been made off his de-
livery. WyckoT took up Bender's work
and was scored on only once in the re-
mainder of the game and then only
through some daring base running by
the Braves. 1t was the first time that

GIVEN BY N. E.
SECURITIES COMPANY
Payable to Billiard Company
There is No
Security

Portland, Me- Oct lot is a fact
that there is in the possession OF the
estate of the late Governor John +. Hill
note for 81 800, 900, drawn by the New
England Securities company and payable
to the Billiard company. There is spec
ulation as to whether the existence of
this note will enter into the suit brought
! bv the New York, New Haven & Hart
| ford against Billiard company directors
| to recover sums alleged to have been
lost by that road in dealings with that
company.
When asked about the existence of
this note yesterday following morn
ing paper story. Norman L. Bassett OF
Augusta. counsel for the Hill estate,
said that there was in the possession OF
the estate note for 81 100000, as de-
scribed, which had been found among
the effects of Governor Hill after his
death.
The note was drawn by the New Eng
land Securities company, payable to the
Billiard company, and bore Endorsements
showing that Sl,000,000 had been paid
on it. Asked if the note had been in
dorsed over to Governor Hill, Mr.. Bas-
sett said that it had not. Mr.. Bassett
said that the note was not accompanied
by securities in the form of large block
of shares in the Eastern Securities com
pany, as had been rumored. Further
than this the only thing that Mr.. Bias
sett would say was that at the proper
time and the proper place there would
be full explanation about the note,
that every bit OF information about il
would be given and that when it was
Governor Hill would be "all right"
Mr. Bassett declared that every other
statement imputed to him in interviews
published yesterday morning in Bos
ton and New York papers, such as an
admission that Governor Hill might have
been the medium through which New |
Haven money may have been intended /
to flow or that he may have been in the |
Billiard deal what Tom" Byrnes was in I
the Westchester transaction, was made |
entirely out of whole cloth. This note,
il is understood, was not considered i
part OF Governor Hills estate and was
not included in the inventory which was
made by the appraisers, former Govern.
or William T. Cobb of Rockland and |
Fred g. Kingsman and Nathan Weston
Of Augusta.
