RUDOLPH EXPLAINS TROUBLE
BETWEEN TEAMS HEADS
Boston Pitcher Also Gives Gowdy
Credit for Victory.

new light on the Mack -StallinRs con-
troversy was furnished today by Dick
Rudolph, victorious pitcher of the OPEN
ing game, who said Connie Mack refused
TO permit tho Boston Braves to practice
at Shibe Park, because of sloping
pitchers box, we'll calculaaed to confuse
any twlrlcr not accustomed to its use.
Rudolph would say but little regarding
the unpleasantness between the two man
ayers, except that, In his opinion the
arrangement of the pitching box was part
OF the Mack tactics and strategy which
the Athletics manager did not care to
have known until 1t was necessary.
Rudolph praised the work of his team
in yesterdays contest. He modestly dis
claimed great credit and said Catcher
Gowdy deserved as much praise as he.
Concerning his victory, Rudolph said:
How could you expect a man to feel
after winning a game like that? When
I went into the box in the first Inning, |
felt little tmid, as I faced the first bat
Ter If Murderers' Row. The batters l
feared most were Collins and Baker.
When the second inning started | re-
gained my confidence and after that
everything went we'll. I felt sorry for
Jack Barry, who tried his best to get
a hit, but failed. 1t was not masterful
pitching that won the game for me, and
Catcher Gowdy deserves as much credit
as l do. I did not think the Athletics
We're hitting at all well, so ! simply out
guessed them"
Rudolph would not discuss the possi-
bilitles of today's games
The Boston team spent a quiet morning
at the Hotel Majestic. Before breakfast
the players sat about, discussed the re-
suit of yesterdays contest and the merits
of various membeEs of the Athletics
With the appearance some time later
of Manager Stalllngs the entire team
held a conference with its chief.
Many flowers haye been sent to various
members of the Braves team by admir-
ing fans in this city, Some came from
Boston. The flowers were placed on dis
play for a while, and it was later an
nounced they would be distributed among

POLICE LIEUTENANT H0RNSBY
STRICKEN AT SHIBE PARK
Two Spectators Overcome by the Heat
at Game.

at Game.
Stricken with heart disease while in
charge OF squad OF policemen in Shibe
Park, Police Lieutenant Charles Hornsby,
commander of the Branchtown Police
Station, collapsed this afternoon. Brother
officers who were nearby picked him up
and carried him outside Of the park.
He received first aid from physicians
who were I'm the crowd, Later he was
removed in a patrol of the 18th and Pine
streets station to the Jewish Hospital
Physicians at the hospital said that
Lieutenant Hornsby was unconscious
when brought there.
Lieutenant HoTnsby has been In charge
OF the Branchtown Police Station for
the past eight years. He Joined the
police force 2l years ago. He Is married
and lives at 60S Olney street.
Scarcely had the excitement following
Lieutenant Hornsby's sudden collapse
subsidized when two more men, evidently
stricken with the heat, keeled over In
their seats.
The first to faint was Charles r.
Brown, a business man from York, Pa.
Brown said he had had nothing to eat
since an early breakfast. He was taken
behind the gmndstand by Lieutenant

ATHLETICS LOSS PUTS
POLICEMAN BEHIND BARS
Guardians of Law and Order, Disap-
pointed, Seeks Solace in Saloon.


There is no sadder man IN this city
today than Policeman Patrick Kirby.
When the Athletics lost yesterday Kirby
made up for the loss by getting in touch
with more spirits far away from his
district, which Is the 55th and Pine streets
station,
Kirby 1t appears, was detailed to help
handle the crowds at the worlds series
game He anticipated decisive victory
for the home team, and when the Braves
brought run after run across the home
plate he couldn't tolerate such a condi-
tion.
But just how the policeman lost his
bearings and got to 18th and Filbert
streets on his way to 55th and Pine from
2lst' and Lehigh avenue Is a matter OF
conjecture.
While in a saloon near FS5Sart street
early this morning, 1t seems that Kirby
attempted to tell others Just how the
Athletics lost. He became so noisy In
his explanation that he was ordered out.
In the meanwhile Policeman McMullin,
of the 18th and Winter streets station.
happened along, and. hearing the racket,
ran inside. Kirby objected to being ar
rested by another policeman, but could
not specify clearly just who he would
like TO be arrested by Even the ap-
plication of the brother poiceman's club
did not seem to impress him. Finally
he was half carried to the Winter street
station house and placed in a cell
Magistrate Tracy made every effort TO
learn how Kirby got into the district,
but the prisoner did not know, nor did
he care. He was held in $500 bail for
further hearing,

placed him ahead of others at good
places in the line after he had Slipped

Dehrndt. "and had no trouble in getting

ARREST SCALPERS
OF SMALL FRY" BUT
LET big GUNS" WORK
Baseball Ticket Speculatofs
Hawk Their Wares on
Streets Again, Though
Police Have Orders to
Stop Them.

The police campaign against "small
fry" scalpers of world series tickets was
continued today. Several of the less i'm
pcrtant SPECTATORS were arrested during
the night and arraigned this morning for
hearings before Magistrate Renshaw. at
Central Station, and the big guns" were
unmolested.
Today the really important scalpers
we're still busily at work on Chestnut and
Bread streets, Haunting large patches of
tickets in the faces of pedestrians. Re-
serve, traffic and every other type of
policemcn paid no attention to them The
scalping goes merrily on.
The little men" are becoming fright
ened and are using more care today In
disposing of their wares. EXPENSES of
employing counsel to get out of the
clutches of the police take away ali
their profits. and they are doing every
thing possible to avoid arrest.
Among those arraigned this morning
was man who gave his name as Harry
Raglis and who literally arrested him
self. Raglls went up to Police Captain
Tempest last night at 18th and Chestnut
street and asked him IL he had any world
series tickets to sell.
Tie lieutenant VINO was IN cltlzen 3
clothing explained that he had not, and
then Raglis offered to sell tickets. Before
Tempest could reply Raglis caught him
by the arm and started to walk him UP
Chestnut street, talking volubly and quot
Ing rates. At Broad street the scalper
turned north. Appreciating the Joke.
Captain Tempest permitted himself to be
led into a shadowy corridor in City Hall.
Then he took charge of the situation,
when Raglis tried to stop. and took the
man to the roll room on the sixth floor.
Rates dropped today on all classes of
tickets, but not appreciably There were
fewer scalpers on the streets, due to the
fact that most purchasers took seats for
all three games. The demand. however.
Is still large and the scalpers are not
losing money.
