National League Grounds, Phila., Oct. 13.—The Boston Red Sox this afternoon clinched the world's cham- plonship when they defeated the Phillies in a heart breaking contest, score 5 to 4. The trusty bats of Lewis and Harry Hooper proved the undoing of Moran’s men and to cap the climax in the ninth Hooper hit into the stands for a circuit wallop the second he obtained during the game, Lewis continued his brilliant work at the bat and tied the score in the eighth inning when he drove in the tying runs with a four sack clout. Captain Luderus played a brilliant game for the losers, but the breaks of luck which have featured the game from a Philly standpoint were in evidence again today. Mayer who started the game for the Phillies was derricked in the second after Hooper had made his first cireuit wallop. Threat of Delay, * A threat of seriows delay or pos- sible postponement of the fifth game of the world’s series here today serv- ed only in the end {o what the ap- petite of more than 20,000 faithful Thiladelphia fans, wlo crowded into the little park to encdurage the home team in its last stand against the Red Sox of Boston, who went into today’s contest with |the count of games three to one it their favor. A victory for the Phillies meant a pro- longment of hostilities with tomor- row’s battle staged in, Boston. A poor steaming ‘engine of the special train bearing tte members of the two ball teams delayed ‘their scheduled arrival in ths city from 9 o’clock until shortly before noon. In the meantime all sorts of rumors were current of a serious accident and a consequent delay in the series. The special was routed {rom Boston around by way of Poughkeepsie and was difficult to locate. Eventually however, word came that all was weil and that the game would start on time. Phillies Get Rousing Cheer. The Phillies, once more in their white home uniforms, were first on the playing fleld today and got a rousing cheer of welcome from the crowded bleachers. The local fans believed that Alexander would turn back the invaders and that some of “Gavvy”. Cravath’s long hits which went for outs on the vast playing field in Boston, would develop home runs toda, There was every evidence of a fiercely fought game. The Phillies had their backs to the wall, and in Alexander they placed their hope of turning the tide that set against them last Saturday when they began to take the short end of three succes- give-2 to 1 scores. Carrigan, confident almoxt to tho degree of arrogance, said today that any of his long string of airtight twirlers could pull out a victory and end the seriess The wise followers he game seemed to take it for ted that George Foster would be rigan’s selection.

B SOX HOME RUNS DOING THE President Wilson was decorated to- day for Governor Brumaugh of Penn- sylvania, Weather prospects ror today were all that could be desired, both from the standpoint of the player and spec- {ator. While there was a tang in the air during the early morning hours the sky was cloudless and the weather man promised plenty of sunshine. Nationgl League park, the WNaying field, was in first class shape, no rain having fallen here for nearly a week. Thousands In Line. The bleacherites began to form in line around the park long before noon yesterday, and by midnight more than a hundred persons were in line. They had brought all sorts of devices for warmth and comfort. Boxes, chairs and benches were brought to sleep on while one enterprising youngster had carted over a couch hammock set on an iron framework. With an overcoat and blankets to keep out the chill night air he was the envy of those less fortunate. By ten o’clock when the bleacher gates were opened, thousands of men and boys were awaiting eagerly to gain front seats. The fact that Boston has won three of the four games played, did not ap- pear to decrease the demand for tick- ets. Speculators as on the two prev- jous days of play here, demanded greatly advanced prices for what tick- cts they had. The presence of Gov- ernor Brumbaugh in the grandstand and members of his official family to represent the state and Mayor Blank- enburg representing the city gave to- day’s contest an official flavor. It was the first game of the series that the governor has been able to attend. Like President Wilson and Mayor Blankenburg, he is an enthusiastic follower of the game. Little Philadelphia Money. There v very little Philadelphia money in sight here, either on today's game or the final result of the series. Some bets were placed however, at cdds of 3 to 1 that Boston would take ihe series and five to four and even money that they would win today. The Phillies themselves although somewhat downcast over their three straight defeats, were determined to put up the struggle of their lives to- daay In the event of a victory they will return to the home of the Red Sox on Thursday for the sixth game with renewed hopes of evening up the series, st Innin IFirst Ialf—Hooper ter on the first ball pitched.

'HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM FOUND TO BE A FIZZLE City Officials Planning to Get Direct Stream from Whigville. City officials are beginning to awak- en to the fact that New Britain’s high pressure service installed in 1910-11 is a failure and it is probable that steps will be taken in the near fu- ture to remedy existing evils. Mayor Quigley, Commissioner Holmes of the safety board and Chief Dame of the firé department gave port that results were very disap- pointing. ¢« At the corner of Osgdod attached to a hydrant and the water was turned on. ed to the height of a telephone pole higher. The high pressure system was in- stalled at an expense of approximate- | ly $85,000. A reservoir was con- structed at the Hunter tract and thi: it was believed, would furnish suf- ficient pressure for the higher parts of the .city. According to Mayor Quigley and Commissioner Rossberg | the scheme is a dismal failure. A gate was installed at No. 4 engine house to check the flow of water into the high pressure reservoir and to regulate its depth. with the elaborate scheme adopted at that time, is found to be practically useless.

(Special to the Herald.) Plainville, Oct. 13.—Charged with operating an automobile while under the influence of liguor, running a mo- tor vehicle without a license and driv- ing recklessly, Harry Donahue of this place will be arraigned in the town court in Unionville tomorrow evening as the result of an accident in which two people were so badly injured last evening that they are in a serious condition at hospitals today. The smash was the sudden termination of a “joy” ride. which started from Lake Compounce early in the evening, and, according to G. E. Taft, Unionville's prosecuting attorney, Donahue may be severely punished. As a result of the accident, David Lawlor of Forestville, is in St. Franeis hospital suffering from bad cuts and scalp wounds, in addition to painful body bruises and Miss Jennie Man- chester, an inmate or a notorious re- sort, which it is alleged has been con- ducted in one of the nouses near the freight yard here for several weeks, lies in a critical condition at the New Britain General hospital.

Paris, Oct. 13, 5:40 Athens correspondent a. m.—The of the Matin says he has learned from a diplomatic source that the Serbian government, having raised at Athens the question of Greece being called upon to give her support under the terms of the treaty of alliance, the Greek govern- ment replied that the present aggres- sive action of Bulgaria had not a purely Balkan character and there- fore did not come within the provi- sions of the Greco-Serbian treaty, Paris, Oct. 13, 5 a, m.—*“What will Greece do now?” is a question which is being asked on all sides here. Her treaty with Serbia expressly stipulates that if one of the contracting parties, already engaged in war against a third power js attacked by Bulgaria as well, the allied general staffs of Greece and Serbia must consult with a view of immediate action. The next step, therefore it is main- tained here, would rest with the Greek general staff, .whose chief is King Constantine. That the King will consent to depart from the policy of armed neutrality is doubted here, al- though Bulgaria launched an army of sixty thousand men against Serbia. Considerable disaffection is ex- pressed by French editorial writers with the general handling of the Bal- kan situation. Stephen Pichon asks to what extent Russia will help or whether France and Great Britain must stand virtually alone in going to the aid of Serbia although Russ terests in the Balkans are gr than those of Irance and Italy al that the statement Wiviani with reference to the Balkan situation not sufficiently explicit to satisfy parliament He maintains that the statement does not explain the failure of negotiations with Rumania or the triumph of “Bulgarian duplicity.” affirms Premier is 'WEATHER.
