Boston, Oct. 13-The Boston Ma
tionals won the worlds baseball cham
pionship today, defeating the Phila-
delphia Americans in the fourth
straight game, 3 to 1. Rudolph
pitched a mastery game for Boston,
allowing but seven scattered hits. Bos-
ton secured six off Shawkey and Pen
mock, but punched them in two inn
ings. In the fifth inning, with two
out, Rudolph's single, Moran's double
and Evers' single netted two runs,
olinching the game.
The Braves were carried from the
field on the shoulders of the crowd
and Manager Stallings and President
Gaffney were compelled to make
speeches. The team was escorted to
their hotel in triumphant process
sion.
Shawkey pitched unhittable ball for
three innings. then weakened. His
Gouble was responsible for the Ath-
letics' only score.
In the final game, as in the en-
tire series, the Braves outfigured, out
hit, outgeneraled and outguessed the
former worlds champions.
Batteries-Boston, Rudolph and
Gowdy; Philadelphia, Shawkey and
Schang.
The lineup of todays' game was as

of capturing and using the port in
her operations against England. A
bitter struggle to keep the Germans
from the coast is inevitable. Reports
indicate that the German cavalry ad
vance is less than thirty miles from
Ostend.
The strength of the allies at Ostend
is not known. 1t is possible that Brit
ish reinforccments which were unable
to reach Antwerp in time to help in
the defense of that city are in Os-
tend.
Vienna reports heavy fighting at
Przenysl and says that Russia has
given up the siege of the fortress. The
Austrians defeated six Russian divis-
ions near Cancaut and routed one Cos
sack division east of Nymao.
The general staff at Berlin reports
that all the Russian attacks behind
the East Prussian frontier have been
repulsed. The Russian attempt at
outflanking the German left wing near
Schirwindt has been frustrated and
1000 Russians have been captured.
Russian reports of victories at Au-
gustowo and Suwalki are said to be
pure inventions. The worthlessness
of the Russian report is declared dem
onstrated by the fact that the tre-
mendous defeats of the czar's forces
at Tannenbaum and Insterburg have
been concealed until now.

On the morning Of May %. Hancock
Corps became the center. OF the Federal
line. Gen. Wright was ordered to close
In on his risht; but his corps became
involved In swamp and failed to reach
It sassigned position. On Haneockss left
the Ninth Corps took position snd In the
course Of the day succeeded In crossing
the Totopotomoy. Hancock planted ar
tillery that silenced the enemy's fire and
toward the end Of day's heavy skir-
mishing succeeded In driving him from
his advanced rifle pits behind the stream.
Farther east Gen. Warren had encoun-
tered the enemy's skirmishers, but had
slowly advanced until he came to a
crossroads known. a. Huntiey's Corner
Here was posted Early's Division of
Lees Army. strongly intrenched. The
position was an important one, A. 1t
right OF the Confederate Army
A little farther east was the old Church
pike, an important road that must be
held by Lee at all hazards IL he were to
cover his right nank. On the afternoon
OF May 80 the Confederates learned that
Warren's skirmishers had reached the
road Early at once sent a division
CRodesD from his position across country
to attack them. Near Bethesda Church
Rodes came across the left flank of War
ren's corps and drove back a Federal
brigade. A battery posted half a mile
down the road stayed the Confederate
advance until re-enforcements could be
hurried by the Federals to the scene.
Gen. Rodes made q determined attack,
but was beaten on. with heavy losses,
especially in ofncers. That evening the
Confederate Withdrew from the field,
leaving Bethesda Church to the Federals.
II later became Grants headquarters.
These operations-the details of which
hli many pages in the Oficial Records
had determining influence on events
Immediately ensuing. They warned Gen.
Lee to look to his right, for he foresaw
that Grant would soon throw q strons
force against IL.
They confirmed Grant in an earlier i'm
preston that he could not attack Gen
Lee behind the Totopotomoy with hope
OF success, and that he must again at
tempt to maneuver him out of his posi-
ton, as he had done at the Wilderness
S2ottsylvania, and. most recently, on the
North Anna.
Therefore. as soon as the results of
the fighting Of May 90 were made known
to him. Grant ordered his cavalry to
move to the left and seize Cold Harbor

strength on that point. which. because

Irrigation Committee
Kills the Resolution
to Aid Dry District
CFrom a staff correspondent.l }


WASHINGTON. Aug. 13.-(Special Tele-
gram m.)-Representative Kinkalds resolu-
ton requiring the Interior department to
release for use of the drouth-stricken
settlers in the Platte valley the surplus
water impounded by the Pathfinder dam
was turned down today after heated
discussion by the house committee on
irrigation. which refused TO report favor
ably on Judge Kinkaids measure
The ONeill congressman admitted after
the vote was taken in committee that not
withstanding the vigorous fight put up
20 obtain this water, he found the power
ful opposition of the Interior depadtment
too much to overcome.
Aithugh hope has not been given up to
secure relief in the suffering localities
from Washington. yet as the matter
stands tonight it is practically at a stand
still. the next move being uncertain.
So far as todsys vote in the committee
was concerned there was strong senti-
ment In the committee in favor of Judge
Kinksid's resolution. but the reclamation
officers held that under the terms of the
present law 1t would be impossible for
them 20 take the action desired.
