SCANDAL CURTAILS
BETTING ON SERIES

NEW YORK, October 3.-Betting
on the world series was at a stand
still along Broadway yesterday as a
result of the scandal in the camp of
the Giants.
Instead of discussing the probable
outcome of the series the fans turned
their attention to this unexpected de-
velopment, and the burning question
was not whether the Giants would
win, but whether they would play at
all.
Rumor was rife and all sorts Of
wild stories were circulated. One vas
that the world series had been called
off. Another. that Brooklyn had been
declared the National League pen
nant winner and would replace the
Giants.
There was no foundation of fact in
any of these stories. of course, but it
was small wonder that they kept
speculation on the series down to a
minimum.
At John Doyle's, where perhaps as
many bets are placed as in any other
one spot along the White Way, not a
bet was made during the day and
only one was offered. That was So, 900
that the Giants would not take part
In the series at all, and it found no
takers. 1t was the general opinion
tiiat Ho matter WHAT the Hnal OUT
come of the scandal situation was
that it would materially affect odds
on the series and that the Nationals
would enter the first game pro-
nounced favorites
In Wall street the betting was ap-
parently not materially affected j.
S. Fried g. Co. reported considerably
more activity than on any day since
the series contenders were decided
This firm announced that it had made
one wager of $4,000 at even money
that Washington would win, and that
at the close of business that it had
an equal amount to place the same
way
W. l.. Darnell & co. reported that
it had placed $4,000 during the day
one bet of $4,000 against $4,000 was
made that the Giants would win the
first game, and another of $4,000 at
even money. The company has an
additional $40 BOO to bet against s1o-
900 that the Giants capture the first
game
G. r. de Chadenedes & Co. reported
several small bets and announced
that it had $4,000 to place against
