 The storm has broke and it is driving the holders of the open seats back under cover. This will delay the starting of the game. It is raining, however, but not a steady continued rain. The thun- der clouds seem to be passing away and comparatively clear sky is coming over behind the clouds.
 While the bleachers are we'll fill ed, still there are many empty seats in the left field bleachers. The upper deck, along the left field side is comparatively vacant, and the reserved seats in the mezzanine floor and lower grand stand are comparatively vacant.
 The rain has stopped and, the sun, at the moment, is shining. There is still dark threatening clouds in the offing. The ground keepers are removing the tarpaulin covering. The sun came out only for a moment and then disappear ed.
 Ruffing and Bush, the pitchers, are out again warming up.
 The Mayor of New York City, Joseph V. Mckee, will throw out the first ball. There is a bare pos- sibility that the usual opening fes- tivities will be dispensed with, which includes the march of the players, etc.
 The sun came out; holders of re- serve seats are now coming in fast. Coach Fletcher of the Yankees and Captain English, of the Cubs. are handing their lineups to the Um- pires.
 Opening festivities have been dispensed with and the Yankees are taking the field. The first game of the first 1882 Worlds Ser les will now start to play ball.-It is still cloudy.
