Athletic supporters, who expected to' witness the second triumph of the American league' champions. For over two hours, the pitcher, whose requiem was sung by thou- sands after the final game against the Boston Red Sox last year, turn- ed back the hard hitting Athletics without a semblance of a break. Then when he saw his teammates could not wrest a victory from Plank he took the bat and drove in the win- ning run. Other Giants added two more, but they were not needed. Mathewson was master to the end. Oldring, Collins and Baker were un- able to drive the ball outside the diamond in the tenth and final in- ning. As an exhibition of class baseball and sensational playing, the game was all the ideal world’s champion- ship contest should be. For nine in- nings the rival clubs bafted without an advantage. In the tenth with the shades of darkness mantling the park the hero of the game termin- ated it as a dramatist would stage a final scene. Lose Chance The Athletics had a chance to win |- in the ninth and many thought poor generalship on the bench and coach- ing lines threw away an opportun- ity that the future of baseball had cast their way. With the Athletics at bat in the last of the ninth, one run was needed to wini Whe Strunk opened with a single past second, Barry bunted] ‘toward Doyle, who scooped the ball and threw wild past first base. The ball sailed clear to the stand, while Strunk and Barry rushed around the bases. Strunk was held at third when | he had ample time to score. It was Wiltse and Mathewson cut down the Athletics’ lone chance, ‘ for) three Athletics fell in a row immed- iately on infield taps. Fatal Tenth The memorable tenth W.B.S opened by McLean with a single to right center. Grant was ordered to run for him and went to second on Wiltse's sacrifice. Mathewson slashed a celan single to center, on which Grant slid desperately for home, unnecessarily for the play was not close. Thén the Athletics raked. Herzog shot a grounder at Collins, who threw to Barry 'to force ~Mathewson. = Barry lost sight of the ball and it went over his head Mathewson going to third. Herzog reacned second. Plank then hit Doyle with the ball, filling the bases. Fletcher caught a fast in- shoot on the end of his bat and drove it down the third base line. The ball bounded unexpectedly and shot over Baker’s head, Mathewson and Her- zog scoring. . Evenly Matched Aside from the brilliancy of Math- ewson the teams were evenly match- ed, though Plank was not quite as steady as his,rival in the box, giving two bases on balls and hitting one batter, to Mathewson’s solitary pass. "The Giants got seven hits off Plank, 'to_the Athletics’ eight from Mathew- son, who struck out .five batters’to Plank’s six. New York had eight left on bases to Philadelphia’s ten. Flet- cher, McLean and Mathewson secur- ed two hits each, a total of six out of the seven recorded by the Giants Baker was the only Athletic player to get to Mathewson for more than | being| credited with two. Had it not been for Mathewson’s remarkable exhibition in the box and at bat, George Wiltse would have been hailed as the star‘of the game. As it was his play was such that it from .

SRR Advised by Large Bankers. "Administrative ‘officials have refer- red privately, however, to the visit of a prominent business man to the sen- ate banking committee, and Repre- sentative Glass recently charged that the unnamed man had been “advised by some of the larger bankers of New York as to what they would like him to say before the committee and had faithfully followed instructions.” Frank A. Vanderlip, president of the National City bank of New York, told the senate banking committee that he endorsed many important features of, the administration currency bill. ] Mr. Vanderlip, however, - criticised adversely certain points, notably the ‘independence. of the regional reserve banks, the character of the note is- sue plan and the section compelling all national banks to become members of the: proposed system.
