It was the second* contest for the championship and was decided only after a struggle that surpassed in situations any ever evolved in the fertile mind of a base ball fiction writer. For more than two hours the teams, pennant winners in their respective leagues, battled with almost superhu- man skill and courage through a one- ran tie. Then, \mh‘thc stage set as if for the thrilling climax, a pinch hit- ter and a pinch runner won victory’ for the Red Sox just as twilight threw its mantle of semi-darkness over Braves' field. Delos Gainer Stars. Of the heroes who arose from the playing field as did the warriors from the dragons’ teeth sown by Jason in_Greek mythology, Delos Gainer of Elkins, W. Va. was the star of stars. It was his single in the gathering darkness of the final in- ning that scored from second base Michael McNally of Minooka, Pa, running for Hoblitzel, with the tally that won the second straight victory for the Carriganites over the cham- pions of the senior league. The contest opened with a sensa- tional circuit smash by “Hy” Myers in the initial inning and not for a mo- ment afterward did the struggle halt or: lose- in-interest-for 'the forty-odd thousand fans who hung on_ ever: play with intensity equal to that of the two teams battling for fam& and financial rewards. For a short space of time-the lone run scared by Myers appeared to be the margin that might give Brooklyn an even break in the series. ‘ Boston Scores in Third. In the third inning, however, Scott tripled to center and scored the tying run when Cutshaw juggied Ruth’s tap, and had time only to make the play at first base. From that point the Red Sox and the Superbas grappled in a base ball battle that rolled through eleven periods of play without the slightest advantage for either club, while dia- mond deeds of amazing daring and skill held the spectators enthralled. Sizzling hits, wonderful catches, scin- tillating throws and the keenest of «base ball generalship succeeded each other so. rapidly-that those preceding were forgotten in the stunning bril- liancy of later events. Thus it came about that, with gray shadows creeping down over the stands tothe field, the Boston players made their last stand at the plate. Sherrod Smith, Brooklyn's southpaw, who had fought g splendid twirling duel against Carrigan’s left-handed star, “Babe” Ruth, faltered for an in- stant, with Hoblitzel at the bat. He could not locate the plate in the twi- light and passed “Hobby” to Dau- bert’s station. Lewis moved his club mate to second with an infield sacri here the Red Sox manage: showed his base ball acumen by send- | ing McNally in to run for Hoblitzel, and taking Gainer from the beiich to bat for Gardner * fice; Gainer set hiniself for tie effort, and slashed a line drive between short and third; which came to Wheat on Continued On FPage Ten, Columit One.)

TALK OF EIGHT-HOUR LAW Columbus, Neb., Oct. 9.—(Special Telegram.)—In an afternoon political meeting at the North theater Leslie M. Shaw, ex-secretary of the treas- ury in the Roosevelt cabinet dnd ex- governor of Towa, delivered a schol- arly-appeal on behalf of the republic- ans, and Vice President Thomas R. Marshall from the same platform spoke for the democrats. The affair was staged by the Platte county re- publican and democratic committees together, and was preceded by a non- partisan reception and luncheon ten- dered both visitors. Mr., Shaw spoke conyincingly of the republican -tariff policy, showed up Wilson's Mexican policy and disclosed the weakness of the Adamson eight-hour law. The vice president was introduced by Edgar Howard. In his speech he told of the effect of the eiglit-hour law and devoted some time to the tariff. In discussing the eight-hour law the vice president declared it was no campaign issue, although it could be made one when the republican party says it will repeal it. “The eight-hour law caknot be set- tled in court, as a court could not settle an opinion of mankind,” he ex- plained. “It cannot be settled by ar- bitration, as there are no facts, just opinions.” The vice president in discussing the unions in connection with the eight- hour law said: “Uniens will continue as birds of a feather will flock to- gether.

RADIO OPERATOR'S STORY New York, Oct. 9.—The story of how ships came within range of a U boat raider so fast on Sunday off Nantucket that it had to keep one waiting until it disposed of another, was told-today by Arthur Gray, wire- less operator on the Norwegian steamer Christian Knudsen. The Knudsen was sunk about 9 o'clock yesterday morning and the crew rowed about in small boats for ten hours before being picked up by a boat * from the Nantucket Shoals Iighlshiz. “We heard the sound of fifing some time before the submarine hove in sight,” Gray said today, “but by the time we had discovered that a sub- marine was operating in our vicinity it was too late to escape. When we came on to the scene of action, the undersea boat was engaged with the British _steamer Stephano, While the passengers and crew of the Ste- phano were disembarking,” the U boat ran alongside the Knudsen and or- dered us to steam nearer the Ste- phano. _“While the submarine was along- side the Knudsen waiting for the captain to take his papers aboard, one of the United States destroyers came into view. Almost immcdiately‘ the submarine submerged and remain- ed under water until the destroyer came near enough to be recognized as a neutral vessel, when it immedi- ately came to the surface and con- | tinued its work, i “We were told to pack up our be-| longings and leave the ship, which | weat once began to do. We had plenty of time to get off while the| submarine was disposing of the other | We had rowed some distance | away before the’submarine fired on | the Knudsen. It fired at least 150 | shots and these not having the de- sired effect, it cut loose a torpedo, which struck the vessel amidships and it soon went down.” Condition of Corn . | | Is Fraction Above | Ten-Year Average Washington, Oct. 9.—The monthly crop estimate of the Department of Agriculture, issued at 2 p. m. today, shows the condition of corn crop 77.5 per eent of normal against 71.3 last month, and 77, the ten-year aver- ge.

LAW'S TITLE IS MISNOMER Newark, N. J., Oct. 9.—Following is the address which Charles E. Hughes, the republican candidate for presi- dent, delivered at a public open air meeting here today: . “1 am not opposed to the principle of an eight-hour work day. On the contrary, I favor it. The general prin-| ciple of the eight-hour work day is| that limiting labor to ‘eight hours pro- motes health, happiness and ef- ficiency. It not only frees from ex- cessive strain, but gives opportunity for education, for enjoyment, for the pleasant and profitable resources of leisure. The whole point is the fimi- tation of hours of labor, that a man 2hall work eight hours and no longer. The ‘Adamson bill' does not provide that. Itis a mere pretence to say that it does. It does not limit hours; it simply regulates pay. It is a wage bill, Text of the Bill. “Let us look at the text of the act. It provides that ‘eighi hours shall in contracts for labor and service be deemed a day’s wor the megsure or standard of a day's work for the purpose of reckoning the compensa- tion for services,’ of the empliyes mentioned. That'is the only purpose ~the purpose ‘of reckoning compen- sation.” There is no limit to hours of work. Then, again, it is provided that pending the report-of the com- mission and for thirty days thereafter the compensation of railway em- ployes, subject to this act for a stand- ard- eight-hour work day, shall no. be reduced below the present standard day’s wage, aad for all necessarv time in excess of eight hours such| employes shall be paid at a rate not less than a pro-rata 1ute (for suzh| standard eight-hour day.” There is no| fixing of hours of work; there is ro| prohibition of working more than| eight hours. What Underwood Said. “The reference to eight hours is solely to fix the wage scale. As Sena- | Dutch, bound from 1916— FOURTEEN PAGES.

ONE CREW IS MISSING Men from British Steamship Kingston Presumed to Be Afloat in Its Own Boats. SEES THREE SUBMARINES Newport, Oct. 9,—Rrear Albert Cleaves, commander of the de- stroyer fleet, announced today, that he had obtained the names of approx- imately 220 persons, including thirty- three women and ten children rescued from five of the six steamers known to have been torpedoed yesterday by a German submarine, This list did not take into account the ecrew of the British steamer, Kingston, which was still missing at 10 o’clock today. All hands had been saved, the,ad- miral said from the steamers, West- point, Strathdene, Bloomersdijk, Christian Knudsen and Stephano, the latter a passenger ship plying be- tween New York and St, Johns, N, F, Several of the torpedo boat destroy- ers reported that they were still searching for the Kingston's crew, supposed to be adrift in life boats, Nine Ships Reported Sunk. According to a report brought by officers of a flotilla_of United States destroyers which picked up passen- gers and crews of several of the ves- sels destroyed nine merchant ships were sunk, One of the submarines is supposed to have been the U-53, which visited this harbor Saturday, and another ‘was decldred to be the U-61. Mrs, Henry B. Wilson of Williamstown, Mass., a passenger on the Stephano, one of the vessels sunk, said that an officer and several of the crew told her that they had distinctly seen the name U-61 on the submarine that at- tacked their ship. Six vessels are known to have been sunk and the report that the total of nine was based on a statement of the captain of the Nantucket shoals light- ship. The captain said three subma- rines were engaged. S List of Victims. The list of submarine victims in- cluded four British, one Norwegian and one Dutch vessel. The identity of the three reported lost had not been learned early today, The Brit- ish vessels were the freighter West Point, bound from London for New- port News; the Strathdene, from New York for Bordeaux; the Kings- toh, destination not stated, and the passenger steamer Stephano of the Red Cross line, from St. John, N F,, for New York. The Bloomersdijak, New York to Rotterdam, via Kirkwall, and the Christian Knudsen, a Norwegian tanker, are the others whose iden- tity is known. The' crews of all these vessels, ex- cepting the Kingston, were brought here today, together ‘with eighty- three passengers of the Stephano. It was believed that no ‘lives had been lost and although the men of the freighter Kingston were report- ed adrift it open boats, the fact that the weather was mild and the sea calm made it seem probable’ that they | wonld be rescued within a few hours Thirty Stephano passengers were American tourists, returning from New Foundland and the Canadian maritime provinces. All came through without injury, but lost all their effects.

Four of the victims were British- owned, one Dutch and one Nor- wegian, The U-53, which called at New- port on Saturday, is known to be one of the attacking craft. It is thought the U-61 also took part in the raid, and that perhaps several other German submarines are present.
