Errorless Ball for Dodgers
The play today was clean through
out, with the exception of one wild
throw by Gardner. AS in Mondays
game, his wild throw was the only err
ror made by the Red Sox contingent.
The Brooklyn defense was like a.
stone wall. The Brooklyn outfielders
proved on a par with the Boston guar
dams OF the jungIes, and Myers,
Stengel and Wheat played perfect ball.
Stengel's throw to Mowrey in the
first inning retired Shorten and saved
run for the home team
Otto Miller played a great game be.
hind the bat and his throwing was of
the. best Both Hooper and Shorten
attempted to steal, but Miller threw
true to the sack and both runners
were retired. lack Wheat has the
honor of being the only man to steal
a base in the series He beat Thomas
throw to the sack in the seventh in
ping, after he had singled.
Brooklyn Can Hit
All doubts regarding the ability OF
the Brooklyn men to hit were waved
aside today when the Dodgers secured
eight singles and two triples off two
Boston right-handed pitchers. They
have proved to be at their best against
right-handed twirlers, and Leonard is I

the Dodgers tomorrow
Boston during tins series to date
has not shown any preference, as
neither Coombs nor Prefer, right
handlers, has been batted heavily, and
Smith and Marquard were effective
against the Beaneaters. Pfeffer may
go back into the box on "Wednesday,

an increase Of 25 cents a ton is a rea-
sonable figure in view of the increased

firms here to talk over the situation,

Not Yet Contemplated
Manager John n. Drew of Castle &
Cocks shipping department said no
Increase is contemplated at the pres
ent time. There may be one later,

come effective much before January

Some Increase Natural Result
"A raise Of rs cents or so tor
would only be natural sequence, with
stevedoring costs higher on account
of increased wages" said Fred l..
WaIdron, president Of the firm of Fred
L. Waldron, Ltd, local agent for the

general merchandise and island prod

now far lower than rates on the same

for a voyage from San Francisco to
the Orient Capt Matson was offer
ed that much. Honolulu shippers
should certainly not object if they are
asked to pay few cents more a ton,
IN view OF the present low rates.

Sheriff Rose stated this morning he
was in no hurry to break up the mess
which had been established for the
extra policemen doing duty at the jail
and on the waterfront during the

Now that / have a crew that can

never tell about these strikes until

he remarked.
Policemen doing duty at Pier 16 say
that the three squs res day" are be-
ing missed by number of Filipinos
who did temporary duty at the docks
