DWELLING WRECKED
BY FIRE; Loss $1,000
Firemen Confine Bad Blaze
Within Narrow Limits
After Hard Fight
ORIGIN OF BLAZE
PROVES MYSTERY

Fire Of unknown origin caused about
$1,000 damage to the dwelling No. s2J
orange street, at o'clock this morn
ing and only the prompt work Of the
flremen. who responded to an alarm
from Box No. 1913 at Eighth and Orange
streets, prevented the fire from spread
ing to adjoining properties. The house
is tenanted by Henry Robinson, a well
known Negro driver for the Bush Line.
He said there was no fire in the build
ing when he left this morning.
The blaze started in a stairway lead
ing from the kitchen and was discoy,
cred by James Jeffers, an employe Of
Joseph Hamilton, OF No. s23 Orange
street, the owner Of the property. JEFF
fers called George Sparks, a foreman
for Mr.. Hamilton, who broke in the
kitchen door. At that time the frame
kitchen was a mass Of flames.
Patrolman John j. Riley was at
Eighth and Orange streets at the time
and he sent in the alarm. The loss on
the furniture owned by Robinson was
estimated at siOO, on which there was
no insurance, the insurance policy hav-
ing lapsed two weeks ago. The loss
Of the property was covered by insur-
ance, however
The fire broke out afresh shortly be-
fore noon and the Fame Fire Company
responded on a still alarm and extin-
guished the blaze.

MONEY GRABBING
HURTS BALL GAME
Demand Comes for Retire
ment of Johnson and
Herman from Sport
FEW ENRICHED
BY Loyal FANS
BY the United Press.

BY the United Press.
BOSTON, Sept. ii.-lf baseball is to
continue after the war It Is evident fol-
lowing the sensational draft for money
yesterday, that some iron-elad rules and
a broader and freezer spirit win have
to be brought into the game. News
papers here were demanding that Ban
Johnson and Garry Hermann remove
themselves from baseball.
The national game has slipped from
a point highest in the minds Of the
sport lover to a sport, where It is now
recognized merely as a means Of en-
riching a few individuals who could not
approach such a sum anywhere outside
Of the game.
The National Commission is blamed
to a great extent for its action last
winter in naming a sum for first place
clubs TO take part in world series. Here
tOfOre clubs taking part in series have
received a sum depending on the pa
tronage. IL was pointed out by the
National Commission that they could
not change this rule without consulting
the American and National Leagues.
This could not be done But the fans
realized yesterday that they were walt
Ing TO see ball game while rival
crowds OF money grabbers were srgu-
ing under the grsndstand.
II was believed among the fans and
without any attempt TO hide the feel
ing, that the present worlds series
would constitute the last ball game 10
be played under the old national agree
ment.
Fred Mitchell, manager Of the Cubs,
is expected TO send George Tyler to the
pitching mound today 10 hold of the
Red Sox, who are now within one game
Of the worlds championship.

More>than ten thousand persons took
part in the final outdoor sing, held al

between the chorus aud the crowd.
Encircling the restless mass OF the
huge gathering We're at least 1900 auto
mobiles, in ranks from five 10 ten deep.
Streamers OF flags were suspended from
the top Of the tower to the bandstand,
which was gay with allied flags and
electric lights. Acetylene lights were
placed at convenient intervals over the
grounds. The executive committee,
efficiently assisted by the park guards
and police, provided well for the com
fort Of the crowd and all went OF
smoothly and in orderly fashion.
The number Of picnickers was con-
siderable, though very small compared
with the total OF persons coming for
the sing. Family groups were scattered
among the trees as early as 5 O'Clock,
and a number OF automobile parties ate
supper in their machines.
The New York Community Chorus
Band took its place on the stand about
7.l5 O'Clock, receiving a welcoming ova-
tion from the crowd The band was
naturally the big event OF the evening.
