8HIBE PARK, PHILADELPHIA,
Oct 26. (Special.) The Philadelphia
Athletics are again world's cbampiona.
By a score of 13 to 2 tbe Mackmen
today defeated tbe New York Giants
after a game In- which tbe National
league leaders were simply slaught
ered. All the craft of Ames, Wlltae ana
Marquard failed to atay the fierce bat
ting of the Athletics, while Dig Chief
Bender, on tbe American league team,
although, scored on in Xhe first Inning.,
held the Giants In the hollow of hi
hand until the last half of tbe ninth,
when they were virtually preaenteJ
with a run for charity's aake. -
In tbe third Inning Lord's double
scored Thomas for the first Athletic
run. In the fourth, Baker, tbe trouble
maker, rapped out a single,-,-yvbtcb
started a rally and before It waa over
four runs had put the game on Ice.
No acore waa made In the fifth, but
In the sixth the Mackmen added an
other tally.
Then came the lucky aeventh. But
It waa not lucky for New York. Big
Chief Bender held McGraw'a men Jilt
less, fanning two or them. Then the
fireworks started. Bender filed t
Doyle; then Lord singled. Snodgrasa,
who achieved fame aa the prize bone
bead of tbe game, misjudged Oldiing
fly and Lord took third. Then caum
the squeeze play. Merkle eropted
Wlltae's throw of Collins' grounder
and Lord came home. Then Baker
aingled and Oldrlng crossed tbe pau.
Then Murphy aingled and Collins
scored. Da via walloped It and Bauer
came borne. Then Barry doubbvi,
scoring Murphy.
Amoa vaa yanked and MSTtjuar.l

the pan. Corfuaed by tbe procession.
Meyers arrod with Umpire Connolly
that thrco luen were out, and was
fired from ! game.
Finally Luoer fanned and the
slaughter was done.
There waa no acore In the eighth.
In tbe ninth Oldrlng's fumble and a
wild pitch put Herzog, who had aingl
ed, on third, and he acored on Fletch
er'a uot.
The marvel of the game waa the
way New York went to pieces In the
fourth and the aeventh Innings. Whn
the big bata of the Athlctlca began to
swing the New Yorkers played bush
league ball. They we're all over the
shop, making wild pitches and ragged
playa which were 'nexcusable. True
clasa showed ltaelf In the game and
there Is no longer doubt aa to which
league boaata tbe right to the cham
pionship of the national game.
