Baseball Contest Yesterday
FIack Responsible.

Chicago, July 18.-With the Ma
tional leagues record for overtime
tied and no chance to beat it, Max
Flack poled a clean single into
left and brought victory to the
Cubs yesterday with nobody out in
the last half of the twenty-first in
ming of the final game Of the Phtla-
delphia series. Score. tn l.
Only once before has battle in
the veteran circuit lasted that
long, and only one game in the
major leagues ever went farther
into extra chapters. The Giants and
Pirates played twenty-one innings
in Pittsburgh four years ago. The
Athletics and Red Sox fought an
American league contest for "a
rounds before it was decided IN
1906.
Flack's breadwinning swat was
his fifth for the day and permit
ted him to participate in both OF
the runs scored by the Cubs. He
registered the first tally himself in
the opening inning on a pass, a
single, and an out The Phillies
tied that up in their fourth with
the aid of an error by HolloCher
From the fourth to the twenty
first neither team could count
again in spite of various and sun
dry openings. George Tylef and
Milton Watson. who pitched the en-
tire battle, were invincible when in
trouble, which was frequently in
the extra innings. Time after time
they had to pitch themselves out
of difficulties, but they were sue
cessful each time until luck turn
ed on Watson in the twonty-first
and broke his back. The score:

TELEGRAPH MEN FACE CHARGES
 OF GOVERNMENT
Western Union Alleged to Have Violate t e q Law by Sending Tn ous IF d s of Night Messages by Train
rRr Reriew I.eased WlreN

WASHINGTON, June 20.-Trans- mission of night letter telegrams by train messenger instead of by wire between eastern cities is a practice of long standing, it was learned today after the pOstoffice department had taken action to stop the traffic by ar resting five train agents of the Vest ern Union Telegraph company who had brief cases filled with night mes sages which they were carrying be- tween New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington.
 The messengers--four of whom weer taken at New York and one at Bos- ton-will ha called before a federal grand jury. Those responsible for the practice will be charged with violating the law giving the government postal system a monopoly of the transnission of public communications by train or other post routes
 It was intimated today thas few high officials of the company knew Of the practice. Upon conviction they would be subjected to the penalty ci $500 fine or six months imprisonment for each Offense.
 Postal inspectors who made the seiZ- ures today had previously gathered evidence, it is said. that thousands of night letter telegrams have been car ried by train between the eastern cities, and delivered to their destina- tions with all the ear marks Of hay ing been sent by wire. Fictitious let ters and figures ordinarily indicating the identity of the telegraph operator | at each end of the wire, and the time of receipt, were borne by the mes sages, which had been typed in the of i fees where they originated.
 : By leaving either end of their routes on midnight trains, messengers usually were able to deliver bundles Of messages in the destination cites early the following morning, and the telegrams then were delivered to the ' addresses as if they had just come by wire.
 ! On some occasions, it is said, trains were held up for hours. and the teie grams were then transmitted bywire from the nearest station.
 ! Reports reaching the postoffice dc pertinent today after the seizures were that the system of sending quan titles of messages by train had beer in effect for many years, and thai since it often relieved wires already overburdened and resulted in delivery as promptly as if they had actually been telegraphed. the practice wal considered justified.
 Postal authorities will refer thei evidence to district attorneys in New
 York and Boston for prosecution which. it is said will be directed 4 the company officers or executives rd
 sponsible for the system, rather thai
 at the messengers who acted only a employees under instruction.
