New York, Oct. (by the Asso-
clated Press .)-The Yankees and
the Giants fought furiously but to no
avail today in the second game OIL
the world series They had the score
tied at 3 runs each at the END
of the tenth inning when the UNI
pires. seeing the approach OF twl-
light. called an armistice. When
hostiIities break out anew tonor-
row the teams will be in the same
position as before today's game,
the Giants having one victory ana
the Yankees none. oo
Tens of hundreds of the S7,020
spectators who paid TO see the
thrilling encounter were angered
when the umpires ruled it as a
no-decision bout. They had come
10 see a knockout and as they
swarmed over the field they
soreeched their disgust to high
heaven and to every person they
encountered who was of any I'M
portance in baseball affairs. They
told Manager McGraw of the Gil
ants they wouldn't come back to
his old Polo grounds again for any
thing in the world. They hurled
mean words upon the umpires,
saving that anybody with good
eyes could see it was still light
enough to keep on playing. Then
they rushed to the box where
Baseball Commissioners Lands sat
with Mrs. lands.
Leaders Bark Questions.
The leading actors in the crowd
barked questions and comments at
the commissioner and the chorus
behind them booed them with
yigor. To hear them it seemed
they wanted to know what kind
Of an outrage the commissioner
thought the Giants and the Yam
KEGS clubs could get away with.
Unmoyed, Mr.. lands put on his
'old black hat over his flowing
white locks and started to walk
across the field to return to- his
hctef rhe crowd surrounded h.m,
hurting taunts and insults. A doz-
en- special policemen rushed in to
clear the way for him and the
commissioner sought to wave them
away, saying he could get through
any New York crowd. Mrs. Ian
dis, too, seemed unperturbed. The
bowling hundreds dogged their
footsteps until Mr.. and Mrs. Lam
dis had reached the Polo grounds
office. Later the commissioner
walked unguarded to his automo-
bile, refusing protection.
From the commissioner the mob
turned its fountains of advice upon
the writer's working in the press
box. They wanted the world in
formed what an awful thing 1t is to-
see a ball game that nobody wins.
The other thousands who went
straight home seemed to feel that
they had seen one of the most re-
markable battles in the history of
the titular autumn baseball
classics.
Giants Rush Into Lead.
They had seen the Giants rush
into the lead in the first inning
when Irish Meusel hit the ball into
the bleachers for a home run with
two men on bases. They had wit

to one run in the fourth when
Ward lashed a home run over the
fence above the left field bleach

that the Giants could not even

the Yankees tie the game in the

Nor were the innings that

Another time he went far back of

over, but he came up with his grip
still on the ball.
Once Heine Groh, the Giants
third baseman, leaped after a ball
and grabbed it while sliding in the
dirt. 1t was in the first inning,
from the bat of Whitley Witt. Groh
hoped up from the dust and
threw Witt out at first. This may
