NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-Some As. 900
citizens of New York and environs
threw aside ordinary business today
and moved on the Polo Grounds to
watch the amazing New York Gil
ants engage the Washington Sena-
tors in the opening game of the 1888
world series.
1t was the most potentially ex-
citing series in recent years. 1t in
wolves a club-the Giants-which
judged by ordinary standards, has
no earthly business in world title
play. Weak on attack, never bril-
liant on defense save in pitching,
and composed largely of young
players, the Giants, before the Ma
tional league season opened last
spring, were consigned to a lower
division berth. But, led by Mem
phis Bill Terry. they displayed so
much fight and zip, they captured
the pennant.
The Senators, too, were not gen.
orally figured to reach the cham
pionship flight, They were the Sec
ond choice club, and when the al :
most universally favored New York
Yankees faltered. the Senators,
headed by Joe Cronin, youngest
manager in the majors, rocketed to
the top.
Interest in the series, first mani
fest Wien the conquering Giants
came home to rouSing civic well
come, reached a fever point today.
Scores of baseball nuts who find it
pleasant to stand in line all night,
rushed through the gates when they
were swung open at 9 o'clock. Mean
time the Giants downtown office
was damned with prospective spec
tatorS, most of them taking ad-
vantage of the revised ticket sale
plan which allows the purchase OF
single admissions instead of blocks
of tickets for three games. Ticket
spectators offered their wares but
did little business because the fans
preferred less favorable locations to
the scalpers' choicer seats.
Two Men Out
With two exceptions the clubs
were at full strength. The Giants
were without the services of john
ny Vergez, baseball's greatest hard
luck player. who is recuperating
from an. appendicitis operation
while in California attending his
seriously i'll wife. Fat Freddie Fitz-
simmons, right handed pitcher, was
a doubtful starter because of a
swollen angle. Vergez' place will be
taken by Travis Jackson unless
Jacks trick knee goes back on him,
in which case it will be Charles
Dresser.
While the Senator were favored
to win the series, the Giants were
the betting choice in todayS game
because Manager Terry announced
definitely that Carl Hubbell, his
screwball ace, was his starting
pitcher Cronin refused to make
known his choice. The name Of the
Washington hurler may not be an
nounced until game time.
Most baseball men expect the
choice to be Alvin CroWder star
right handler. Other possibilities
are Earl Whitehill and Walter Stew
art, left handlers.

Mrs. Helen Wills Moody made her

RAIL LABOR FIGHTS
WAGE CUT EFFORT
Two Western Roads Seek
to Slash Pay.

By Scripps- HOrdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, March 22-While
the administration is planning its
railroad program, railway labor in
the west is fighting new attempt
to reduce its pay.
There, according to A. F. Whit
ney, chairman of the Railway Labor
Executives Association, the Rock
Island and Illinois Central railroads
have asked their employees to waive
their rights to one-Sixth of their
monthly pay for March and April
Agreeing to this cut would reduce
these employees wages below that
stipulated recently in the national
wage conference between the car
riers and heir workers.
Whitney's association has in
structed employees of these two roads
not to sign any such waivers be-
cause of the national agreement.
The monthly pay rolls of these
two roads Whitney estimated to be
about 81 100000 each
1--WE anticipate" Whitney said,
that the railroads will desist from
their suggestion" He said a definite
decision was expected after a con-
ference in Chicago.

BRIDGE DEATH
QUIZ RESUMED
More Witnesses Called in
Effort to Clear Up
Taylor Mystery.

DR.. John Wyttenbach, deputy
coroner, today resumed his inquiry
into the death OF Won D. Taylor,
81, of 923 Leland avenue, calling
more witnesses in an effort to clear
up mysterious circumstances sur
rounding the skull fracture suffered
by the former athlete.
An autopsy has revealed Taylor's
death due to the fracture, but DR.
Wyttenbach believes the type of the
fracture would be very unlikely" to
be caused by fall.
Taylor, formerly we'll known as a
basketball and football player and
amateur wrestler, was found diving
in front Of his home about 2 Sun
day morning.
The Taylors and Mr.. and Mrs.
Ralph SmOck, SIT North De Quincy
street, had played bridge the night
before, the game breaking up early
after friendly argument.
The Shocks went home and Mrs.
Taylor spent the night with them
leaving Taylor at home alone, ac-
cording to the widow.
A milk wagon driver found Taylor
lying in the street in front of the
Taylor home, which was ablaze with
lights. Taylor died Sunday night
at city hospital without regaining
consciousness.
Funeral services will be held at 2
this afternoon in the Wallace Street
Presbyterian church, with burial in

CINCINNATI, March 22.-The
Ohio river continued to rise slightly
today, but the additional water was
going into already flooded lowlands

The flood was expected to sub

Snow furrieS and temperatures
ranging around 80 degrees were pre-

Thousands still are homeless in a

Head to Avert Wage
Strike Here.

Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan to-
day urged William E. Elliott of New
York, president of the International
Union of Motion Picture Operators
and Stage Hands, to come TO In
dianapolis in an endeavor to avert
wage strike set to close theaters
after Thursday night.
Sullivan sent telegram to Elliott
after a conference arranged by
Governor Paul V. McNutt failed of
result.
At the conference, attended by
employees representatives. and the
alter owners, Arthur Lyday, repre-
senting the employees, exhibited a
telegram from international union
leaders advising against arbitration
of the dispute, and recommending
further negotiations 'inaSmuch as
present conditions warrant consid-
eration.'
According to statements issued by
the owners, decreased revenues in
recent past months have made nee
eSSary a reduction in overhead ex-
pense, including salaries of all en-
ployes.
Nonunion workers on the theater
stats have accepted cuts ranging
as high as so per cent, it was said.
Union employees, including motion
picture machine operators, mu-
sicians and stage hands, refused to
take a lower scale.
Business agents of the unions de-
clared that their men would accept
reduction, provided that contracts.
now only five months old, would be
extended.
Meetings between the owners and
employees failed to break the dead
lock, and an attempt by Mayor
Sullivan to bring about an agree
ment also proved fruitless at con-
ferences Saturday and Sunday.
