SOURCE OF RUSSIAN
 GOLD IS A MYSTERY
Department of Justice Will
 Investigate Recent Shipment.

washington, oct. 4-Inquiry into the source of the recent shipment of Russian gold to the United States has been ordered by the department of justice. Belief exists at the depart ment that the gold may be a part Of the Bolshevik propaganda fund.
 Receipt of the shipment, totalling $339,636, was announced last week by the federal reserve board in it's periodical statement on gold imports and exports. This was the first ship ment of gold from Russia to arrive in the United States since late in 1916. Officials of the board said today they had not yet identified the shipment on it's consignee. .hs /.E
 Federal reserve board officials sug- gested that the shipment might have been one which started to this coun- try before Americas declaration of war. When the United States en- tered tho war, the government as- stunned control of exports, of all gold and silver and it was said that as a result the shipment might have been held up in some European country until its passage in safety was assured.

Speaker Plans Campaign

Cleveland, Oct 4.-Tris Speaker, manager of the Cleveland Indians had his team at League Park this morn- ing for 8 conference during which he formulated his mode of attack against the Brooklyn Dodgers in the coming worlds series.
 Although Speaker would not an- nounce definitely who his pitching se- lection would be in the first game to- morrow. it is likely Jim Bagby, who won .31 games for the Indians this season may be called upon. Stanley Coveleskie and Walter Mails both are ready and may be called upon if Speaker does not think Baghy has had sufficient rest.
 Should manager Robinson start one of his left handlers in the box against Cleveland, Speaker may send his right handed hitting crew, which worked so successfully in the Detroit and St. Louis series into the lineup. That would mean George Burns on first, batting in the clean-up position, with Joe Wood in rightfieId.
 Protecting the Fans
 About S5 per cent. of those fortu- nate enough to get tickets to the game to be played here were notified of the reservations today. Special arrange ments have been made in the post office to speed up the delivery of all letters containing orders for tickets to the world series.

 When a fan calls for his tickets he must take the numbered envelope and application with him. The appli- cation must bear the same handwrit- ing as the signature to the original letter requesting reservation.

 Labor Making Work

New York, Oct. 4.-President Eb- bets of the Brooklyn club announced today that Mayor Hyland has accept ed an invitation to throw out the first ball in the opening game of the series tomorrow.
 Definite announcement of the as- signment of umpires to their positions has not yet been made. but since the series will open in National league park it is expected that either Henry O'Day or William Klem will work be- hind the plate in the first contest.

Under this plan Connolly who is the senior umpire of the American league will work behind the plate in Wednesdays game.
 President Ebbets has decided to dispense with music at the games in Brooklyn, because attendance of the band would mean that just so many fans would be denied tickets.
 Distribution of the tickets was com pleted today.
 The weather bureau today gave a promise of favorable whether for the opening of the series. r
