Certainly the scenes hoth inside and outside the baseball arena equalled those of any preceding world’s series, so far as the gathering was concerned.. Including those who witnessed the game in offi- clal capacity, the attendance crossed the 40,000 mark and fully half that number falled to gain access to the park. So great were the throngs that surrounded the Polo grounds that it was necessary to call out the police reserves and discontinue the elevated and & family that would suffer 3 y the ga g Lt 3 raflroad service to the ground gates B L, bt o By D in order that the thousands might not o e jble be augmented and swept beyond the e control of the police.

Mathewson in the Box Today. Philadelphia, Oct. 7.—Manager Mc- Graw of the New York Giants, upon his arrivael here late tonight with h team, declared that he was not i couraged by today’s defeat and ‘.he Athletics “were lucky to win, Bender-was only fair tods the little manager. “We hit I and the boys are not in the least d| couraged by their defeat. They are anxious to go onsthe field again tomor- row and fight.” McGraw sald ‘that if the weather is clear he would' use Mathewson in the second game of the series. Further than that he would not discuss his probable pitching selection. There is serious doubt in the Giant camp tonight as to whether Fred Mer- kle, the Giants' first baseman, will be able to take his place on the initial bag in tomorrow game? Merkle | sprained his ankle in the mixup ifirst base %in the sixth inning today and jaggravated the injury by playing out the remainder of the game. He had considerable difficulty in getting to the clubhouse after the game and when he removed his shoe it was found that the ankle was badly swollen.
