For upward OF an hour the widest
scenes prevailed. Women. caught in the
ever increasing press. were crushed until
they cried for an opportunity to escape.
Several tainted. A dozen mounted po-
licemen near the entrance tried to main
tain some sort OF order. and many an
unoffending foot was trodden under
steeled hoofs. The management OF the
park became scary Of the growing traffic
block n closed most of the entrances.
That simply added to the difficulties
without. for the public, none of II, would
give way.
FINALLY the management announced by
~megaphone from the Office windows that
all the standing room and unreserved
seats had been sold, that none but ticket
holders would be admitted. This an
nouncement the crowd took good natur-
eddy under the circumstances. Those
who. had no tickets worked their way
out and those who had were able to
work their way in. But the manage

Efforts to Rattle Chalmers,
This holiday crowd seemed even more
animated than the larger assemblage of
yesterday. Also It seemed more unfair
and less eportsmanlike. It did not
shower on the visitors Boston's Gus
tomary encouragement and adulation for
plays Of merit. And many times when

Elected this same spirit.
Carrigan's coachers repeatedly en-
croached upon the rules Of etiquette.
They left the coaching box. They yelled
loudly at Chalmers when there were no
men on the bases. They waved their
arms widely. prompting the hordes in
the nigh hlled to ftful spasms
OF frenzied noise making-all with the
view OF breaking Chalmers's cool
resolution.
IT was noticed too that Boston's style
or game at times approached rowdy
r~oughness. Iris Speaker in the first
inning attempted a steal. Burns's per-
feet throw had the Texan beaten BY
yards. but nevertheless. though Niehoff
waited with the ball. Speaker went into
the second baseman with cold steel. His
iron shod foot cut Niehoff slightly on
the left wrist. There was absolutely no
occasion for Speaker to use his spikes.
Niehon resented the attack. Angry
words passed. Speaker gathered him
self up and 5awed his way to centre
field. Shore detracted somewhat from
, his victory by apparent use Of the
bean" ball. He came dangerously close
to the heads OF Cravath. Luderus and
other leading Philadelphia batsmen.
Added to the general rumble and
was the blaring brass Of half a dozen
bands distributed through the main
stands and bleachers. A killed band
OF pipers skirled their pipes and emitted
n dozen interpretations OF the pibroch.
Two thousand letter carriers occupied
the right wing Of the left field pavilion.
In their uniforms Of gray and with their
wild rebel yells they looked and sounded
like so many freshly QUILTED Con
