Chicago, Sept. 6.-.The Chicago Na- tionals put the worlds series on fifty fifty basis today by defeating the Boston Americans, to 1. in a good old-fashioned game of baseball.
 Tyler. pitching for Chicago. was the hero of the contest. for he projected a steady stream of bafflers and capped the climax by shooting single over second that scored two runs.
 All of Chtcago's runs were made in the second when Bush. on the bridge for the Red Sox, could see periscopes bobbing up all around his craft. Bos- tons run came in a desperate and spectacular rally in the ninth. Strunk, the first man up for the visitors, se- lecting a Bib Bertha from among the bats, slammed the ball against. the right field fence. Whiteman, who aided materially in Boston's winning rally yesterday, was cheered as he came up. His wallop was the mightest of the series tlHs far. the pall smash ing into the word Buy in the war savings sign in center. StI'unk trotted home and the Chicagoans who had counted the game won halted on their way to the exits. Tyler, however, steadied and threw out McInnis at first. Scott was allowed to walk, and the gigantic Dubuc came to bat for Thomas. He fouled off half a dozen good ones but in the end struck out on wide one. Schang, who was sub stituted for Agnew, popped to Holloch- CT and the game was over.
 Merkle started the scoring for Chi cago by waiting for four bad ones. Pick bunted gently toward third and Thomas amhIed gracefully forward and let it bound past him. This placed Pick on first and Merkle on second, while kind-hearted official. scorers awarded Pick hit. Deal fled out. Kille- fer was the next man up. Earlier in the game Tyler devoted much attention to getting something out of the catcher's eye and the operation was a complete success. Killefer got both his good eyes and the convalescent one on the ball and delivered a two bagger, the first extra base wallop of the series. Merkle scored and Pick roasted on third. Surgeon Tyler rose to the occa- sion with a single. scoring Pick and killefcr, but was himself caught try ing to reach second on the play.
 The CL\s threatened in the sixth, but the cloud did not develop rain Hollecher hit down the first base line and his speed stretched it into a triple. He never got further, however, for Boston rallied heroically. The in- field drew in and Mann was out, Scott to McInnis, Hollocher hardly having a chance to move off the third sack He tried to register on Baskets grounder, but Scott's sharp throw was ahead of him. Paskert was safe and Merkle singled but a miss-fire double steal failed ignobly and the clouds cleared from the Boston sky
 Boston started the second inning with the aplomb and confidence of champions and for a time seemed to have an excellent chance to score but a snappy relay from Pick vut off the impending tally at the plate. White mar, whose bat was efficacious yester- day, was awarded a pass. Killefer and | Tyler collided over McInnis' bunt and both were safe. It was on this occa sion that SWgeon Tyier began to work Killefer's eye. Both were ad- vanced an additional base by Scott's

CHICAGO'S VICTORY EvENS UP SERIES

sacrifice and Thomas came to bat His best was a drive to Pick who threw Whiteman cut at the plantc. Agnew closed the rally with a high foul to Flack.
 The fighting blood of both teams was up from the beginning. Umpires were growled and snapped at; the crowd grew partisan and way down in the depths of the Boston boom proof, Knabe, Chicago coach, and Wagner, ditto for Boston, got into a fight. The crowd learned of it when players and umpires made dive into the dugout and separated them.
 Flack magnificent throw from right saved the day for Chicago in the eighth. Schang, batting for Agnew, singled too hot for Hollocher. Hooper singled into far right. Schang passed second at a 10 second gait, but Flac!; throwing on line with deadly accura- cy caught him feet away from the base. It was a disheartening out for Boston.
 Despite the warm and pleasant weather, the attendance was anly a | few hundred more than yesterday and the 20,040 persons present left many vacant seats. In the whole assemblage
 there probably were less than 100 wo-
 men. In normal times they come ir l crowds to notable contests. on the dia- , mond.

BOTH MANAGERS CONFIDENT
 OF WINNING TODAY

Chicago, Sept. 6.--Mays probably will be selected to face the Cubs in the third game of the worlds series tomorrow, according to Manager Bar row of the Red Sox tonight
 "Todays game was a tough one to lose, especially as we nearly broke it up in the ninth." Barrow said. "The Cubs had the better of the breaks, I think, and piled up lead in the sec ond inning too great for Us to over come. I do not mean to- take credit away from Tyler. who pitched great ball and deserved to win. l expect to start Mays tomorrow and hope 10 make it two and one"
 "The task of the Cubs is now cas- fer" said Manager Mitchell. of the Chicago club, ''We are on even terms with Boston. The Cubs certainly re- covered their batting eye and they are confident of retaining it. Tyler ;.itch- ed a wonderful game and never was in danger except in the ninth, when he grooved them over for Strunk and Whiteman.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK EXCHANGE IS
 TO INVESTIGATE CREDITS


 New York, Sept 6.-Another impor- tant step toward the conserving of credits for all but essential and pro ductive purposes was taken today when the Stock Exchange adopted 4 resolution authorizing daily investi Sation of it's members loans.
 This action. it is generally believed, will result in a further pronounced curtailment of speculative activity, if not a gradual reduction of brokers loans to nominal dimensions.
 Authorities of the exchange were quoted as saying that the situation presaged nothing of a disturbing na- ture, but publication of the resolution was succeeded by volume of selling in which many important stocks feIl 5 to points under final quotations of the previous day.
 During the morning moderate un- settlement occurred, especially in the transportation group. because of the dissa tisfaction expressed at Director General McAdoo's form of rental con tract.
 Declines among seasoned rails ave- ragged little more than a point, how ever, until the extensive liquidation Of the last two hours. The selling of that period evidently embraced nu- merous orders from, out of town GUS toners.
 [. s. Steel bore the brunt of the on slaught as usual, suffering an extreme setback of points to 110 Is, from which it rallied point. Other in- custrials, equipments and numerous specialties forfeited to 4 points, but rails recovered moderately at the end, St. Paul common showing marked strength. Total sales were S20.0O0 shares to which the last hours out pOurings contributed almost 40 per cent.
 The bond market developed a reac- l tionary tone as stocks yielded, bur losses in that division were relatively light. Sales, par Talue, were $7,675,- 900.
 Old U. S, bonds were unchanged on call,
