New York, Oct 6--In a pitchinS duel between the leading hurlers o5 the National and American League s| Burlelgh A. Grimes, Brooklyn's spia ball ace, today shut out Cleveland three to nothing in the second gamJ of the worlds series at Ebbets field! His ability to hold the Indians iil check when hits would have meanA runs, marked his superiority oveS| James c. Bagby.
 The victory, which placed the Sua perbas alonside Iris Speakers Ind dians was due almost entirely to thsl excellent hurling of Grimes, who had the heavy hitting representatives os the junior league baffled throughout the game. With the exception of thx eighth inning, when Grimes tempor5 arily lost sight of home plate, CleveA land never appeared in the light of X series contender.
 The inability of the Indians to conjl meet with Crimes slants, is apparA ently illustrated by the fact that th(| Cleveland clan got fourteen runner|l on the bags, of whom ten werll stranded and four were retired bd subsequent plays. The Indians weriI not without repeated opportunity t& score, but in every emergency Brook lyn's moist ball star met the emerN gency with masterly collection oH sharp breaking slants, or slow break which cut the corners of the plate or shot in close, to the .sbody of thd ; batter, with the result that the sever hits of the invaders were so scattered as to be useless in runspr6ducing.
 Not as Good as Coveleslie
 Bagby was not as effective .in thu box as Coveleskie in the openin4 game, or as his opponent Gifmes notwithstanding that he delivered less pitches than did the winning hurler. The Superbas reached hi& offerings effectively when runner were on bases, as compared to th Indians, for, of the ten Brooklyi batters to reach first, three salred three were retired and the re4aininf four left. The crux of the sfpitchjn1 analysis is shown by the fact that th@ winners scored three runs on seveI hits scattered through six innings while Cleveland, with an equal nun Der of swats, was unable to send run across the plate.
 Uhle, who replaced Bagby in th( seventh, proved more of puzzle, iii Robins going out on strikes or flie% in order during the two periods, Thj contest, aside from Crimes power puzzle the Indians at critical tiMe1 was as devoid of sensational featured and color as was the initial, batt{ yesterday. Speaker pulled off 1T other sensational catch in the fourt inning when he raced far over int} Jamieson's territory and hauled dowI Kilduff's long drive. Right fieldel Griffith starred with catch off th( wall in the seventh when he con pleted Sewell's savage smash in manner somewhat similar 10 N thrilling handling of Speakers drfv of Tuesday.
 Display Defensive Skill
 A flash of defensive skill of thd Indians was shown in the third ses sion with Brooklyn at bat. Bagb1 served up a slow floater to Grine1 who peppered it to center for singh Olson followed with a bunt whicl Bagby threw low to second. Wambsj ganss, in his efforts to hold the bal stepped low over the bag and Grimes dashing to the sack, turned com plete somersault over the prostratd infielder. Griffith's double to righ scored Grimes and put Olson on third Bagby purposely passed zack WAea and relied on play on Myers tS shut off the rally. The entire Clsve1 land team was on it's toes and wAet Myers slashed sizsling groundex q Gardner, the Indians' third basenAa1 shot it back to O,Neill, forcing M
