 Cleveland got the jump on Brooklyn by scoring two runs in the second in- ming. Burns, first up, hit a high fly which came down where Konetchy was standing. The wind caught the ball and Konetchy jogged step for ward, then backward, then sidewise and in the end the ball dropped safe ly to the ground. It went as single, Konetchy picked up the ball and threw to second to head off Burns. but no one was there to receive the throw and the ball went to left field, | Burns meanwhile completing the cir i cuit for the first run. After Gardner had been disposed of at first, Wood ! irew pass and went to third on Se- i wells single to right center. Wood then scored on O'Neill's double down the left field line.

Brooklyn's only run came in the sev- enth when Wheat led off with dou- bic to right He took third while My ] CTS was being retired at first and scored when Konetchy was put out at first. Burns to Coyeleskie.
 The spectators were slow in filing l into the stands and there were many vacant seats when Evans opened the l game with an infield out. Later the 1 seats filled but there was an apparent lack of enthusiasm compared with preceding world series. Much of the usual noise and roofing was missing and there was little evidence or con- certed effort to cheer on either team.
 Find Few Purchasers Spectators who offered both grand stand and bleacher seats al several times their face value found few pur- ,hasers and after the first inning were glad to dispose of them for 50 per cent of the original price. The nigh ground back of the park and 'oofs of apartment houses in the vi unity were thronged with men and 'oys but these crowds dwindIed as he cold wind and inability of the brooklyn battcrs to hit Coveleskio safely, chilled their baseball ardor.
