games that any series has shown or six innings it tooKea hkc a cincit ror tne cubs and after that it was game at any time Likewise the biggest scoring contest that lias been pulled off in any series that the National commission has conducted the 8 to game that the White Sox won from the Cubs two years ago being next in order in number of runs scored The game of yesterday resolved itself into a battle between two hard hitting teams neither of which was too cer tain of its fielding Each made er rors and each interjected its mis plays into spots where they would help to make runs 1 Considered without prejudice there was nothing to choose between the teams that battled in this game Tinker who turned off two swell fielding plays was the only man to shine above his fellows Elsewise in the defensive sense it 'was honors even The same might almost be said about the hitting The Cubs got four more safe ones than the Tigers due to their onslaught in the ninth Had the Detroit club been quick in changing twirlers as was that side even a hit or two but hardly by more Encouraging pet rolL rom the'Detrolt standpoint tliis is the balm in the hour of While most followers of the Amer lean league champions believq tliat the team one year agojwas as great a team as the one that has repeat ed in 1908 there is no questioning the fact that the Cubs in last series outclassed the Tigers That has reference to the play' rather than to the players This time in this first game that such was not the case They met on practically even terms There was no stage fright on the partisot the Detroiters They made errors So did the Cubs But they had a little the better of this the slipperv ball being responsible for at least two' possibly all of the 'Detroit misplays It figured In one of the slips made by the Cubs No mis play on either side was due to any nervousness though some'were due to attempts to hurry plays thatit was almost Impossible to make A Apparently the Tigers have profit ed by their experiences They went into the contest just as they would go into apy game of ball and they played Jt as they would play against any American league A year ago they were not only fagged and suffering from nervous strain but they seemed to look on the series as something extraordinary some thing different from ordinary ball games And the result wns in inevitable Tenuis nre Hnndicnppcd i

scorers which was to be held at the Ppntchartrain at11 a calling it No reason was given for this action The play: ers made a little kick or at least thp members of lhe Detroit club did but it got them nothing' About all of the Tiges were on hand but none of the Cubs was in evidence Several of the nlavers "had speeches framed up for the occa sion Schaefer made one year ago as a result: of which the men were enriched There was no rule at that time in regard to tie games and the German brought up the point The commission rules that players shared in the receipts from ties but that they did not count against them as games played ilence last year the Tiges and Cubs got in on five receipts instead of four It is understood that the men claim that they did not get all thatwas coming to them last year and that they planned to ask for a rep resentative to guard their interests They dldn get a chance The commission held a meeting in private with no outsider there excepting President Murphy of the Chicago: club' The latter had said on riday night that he object to the playing of Bush by Detroit President Johnson men tioned the matter but Mr Murphy backed up saying that Manager Chance would

Detroit fans as well as to avoid delaying the series they decided on a game anyway though rain was falling when the men took the Held Con stant changing of the ball to give the pitcher a dry sphere was necessary But even then the twirlers worked at a disadvantage while the infielders in handling ground balls and the outfielders in making throws were badly ham pered Under the conditions their work was something to marvel at It was as said a well contested game The score shows that if nothing more were said It iyas also a very clean contest neither team making any bother for the umpire and both attending strictlv to the business in hand that 'of playing a ball game Barring con sideration of the result and one team must win where a game goes to a decision it was a contest in which

lost a base hit to open the third Tinker making a great one hand stop and throwing his man out by a step He did the same thing to in the fourth Like all other clubs theCubs are watching Cobb closely In the first inning he tried to make two bases on a hit to left and was nailed There were two out and the chance was worth while Tom Navin Jr who sat In a box had any of the latest creations in the

of the series at Bennett park was a disappointment would be touching upon it it was a dismal fail ure Actual paid attendance was 10812 this figure being'oftlcially announced by the commission last evening Barring just one game this thefifth of Cub Tiger series last year played in Detroit it is the smallest crowd that has attended a series in the last three years ortunately for the players however the receipts are not cur 1'espondinglv Small 'lhe record attendance for world's series game is 24992 crowd turning out for the third Philadelphia American New York National game at the Polo

and the receipts yesterday The difference in money is accounted for by the advanced call of the present time The largest amount ever realized on one game of a series wax the opening game of the Tifcer Cub series at the National league park Chicago when they took In $29 I 16250 this being paid in by 24377 people a few more than 600 under the record attendance figures onthe Polo grounds New York in

when all the fighting was over all the tiresome 'waiting done and when the grand rush for seats In Bennett park was over there was still room to seat over 5000 more? in the bleacher seats The big row of vacant seat made Detroit look anything but a base ball town In the neighborhood of twenty thousand persons were at the opening and ac commodations were made for such As it turned out President
