TROUBLE WITH MEXICO AGAIN.

American troops have invaded
Mexico. The invasion came after
bullets fired by Mexican troops in
the battle of Juarez had killed one
American woman and wounded five
others, two of them U. S. soldiers.
Infantry, cavalry and artillery are
included in the units that crossed the
border Monday. Dispatches today
indicate that the Americans have
driven the Mexican rebels, headed by
Villa, into the mountains and have
retired to the American side of the
border.

GAME ANALYSIS
Holds Hurting Was Best in
the Five Worlds Series
Contests Played Up
to Date.

Chicago, Oct 6.-Hod Eller's
sensational pitching for Cincinnati
in today's game OF the worlds series
stood out plainly in the pitching
analysis. After his two-base hit had
paved the way for his teams four
runs in the sixth inning, he took
chances with the Chicago basemen,
but in the first FIVE sessions he was
using his best brand Of shoots, hops
and Blenders on every occasion.
OF the rs strikes which Eller
pitched, Sc came in the first five in
nings, and half of that number were
recorded in the second and third,
when he struck out six successive
batsmen. In the third inning Lie
bold was the only Sox player to
touch the ball, and his best was a
high foul into the upper tier of the
grandstand,
In the sixth Filler threw only five
times. One of those efforts was d
ball, another was fouled. and a fly
and two easy grounders disposed of
the three batters. The big Red
twirler missed the plate IS times in
the first three innings, but in the
last six had only seven bad ones
called. This was largely due to the
fact that he was putting practically
every ball across the plate, and the
Chicago men quit trying to wait
him out.
While Eller's work was unusually
fine, Williams pitched a fine brand
of ball also, and made a creditable
record in all departments. He had
40 strikes in eight innings and only
% balls, performance which was
far ahead Of his exhibition at Gin
cinnati in the second game of the
series. Williams was working the
inside corner constantly, and it was
a pitch of this species below his
knees that Eller lofted between
Jackson and Felsch after waving
weakly at two similar offerings
Williams yielded four hits to Eller's
three, struck out three TO Eller's
nine and gave two bases on balls
as compared with Eller's one.
Mayer, who pitched the ninth for
Chicago, exhibited lack of control
giving one pass and mis- sing the
plate II times out of Fl attempts
All told, the Chicago pitchers threw
l26 times. Filler got through with
ga throws.
