NEW YORK, Oct. 11- The Boston 'Americans drew one notch nearer' to the world's championship here this afternoon when they defeated the Brooklyn Nationals, 6 to 2, in the fourth game of the series, which, now stands 3 to 1 in favor of Boston. Tomorrow the conflict will be renewed at the Braves' field, Boston. Columbus day tomorrow is a legal holiday in Massa chusetts and the indications point to an enormous attendance. With today's contest the players ceased to participate in the financial returns. Series May End Abruptly. The manner in which the Bostons tore into the Brooklyn team here this after noon left no doubt as to their inten tions of ending the series as quickly as possible. Pitcher Leonard gave the Nationals a two-run lead in the open ing inning, but his teammates more than made up the handicap in the sec ond session and. once in the van, re fused to permit Brooklyn to creep up on them. Today was the first time since the initial game against the Phil adelphia Nationals in the series of 1915 that Boston has won from its rivals by a margin of more than one run. The contest, although featured by eeveral sensational plays, did not rise much above the average of a regular season contest. Once Leonard swung into form, the Brooklyn batters found it Impossible to score. Long, slashing hits ripped off the bats of the Bostons to be charged against the account of Brooklyn s pitchers, while splendid catches, stops and throws made the way easy for Leonard. Robins Start With Rosh. The Brooklyn club gave its support ers great hopes of repeating the victory of Tuesday when two runs were put over in the first inning on Johnston's triple, Myers' single, a base on balls and an error by Janvrin, who, in his eargerness to get Myers at the plate, fumbled Cutshaw's grouder. Rube Marquard, Manager Robinson's selection for a second try against the Boston batters, held Boston in the in itial inning, but Gardner took much of the mystery out of his delivery when he hammered out a home run, his sec ond in two days, with two on bases in the next inning. Marquard walked lloblitzel, the first man up, and Lewis advanced him to third with a double to right field wall. Gardner then cleaned up with his homer, a drive to deep center. Brookly Uses Three Pitchers. Boston added another tally in the fourth inning when Lewis singled, went to second on Gardner's sacrifice and scored on Manager Carrigan's sin gle. Another was added in the fifth when Cheney, who replaced Marquard in the box after Pfeffer had batted for him. parsed Hooper, who stole second and scored when Hoblitzel doubled. The final run of the game came in the sev enth. Janvrin, second up. forced Hood er, who had singled, went to second on Walker's sacrifice and scored when Hoblitzel grounded to Cheney, whose lorow to ursi nit ine runner. Cheney soon afterward was replaced by Nap Rucker, one of the greatest of southpaws when at the height of his career. Rucker, pitching with great dellberateness and wide, sweeping curves, held the Bostonians scoreless to the end. In the two innings ne held command he fanned three of the six batters that faced him and allowed but one hit. Of the four pitchers in the game, Leon ards work was the best. He allowed out five hits in nine innings, struck out three, gave four passes on balls and made one wild pitch. Boston got 10 hits off Brooklyn's three pitchers for a total of 15 bases, while Brooklyn tec-urea live nits for eight bases. Hoop er made the only base steal of the day and Boston used but nine players to the Dome club s la. Notwithstanding the perfect weather ana Brooklyn s victory of the nreced ing day, the stands showed many va cant seats, although the attendance was a trifle larger than on Tuesday.

Brooklyn's cave-In today came at the moment when she had reached her height. The thud was all the more sickening because it followed a lofty falL Having gotten back one game on Tuesday, the National League cham pions took the Jump on Wednesday witb Marquard apparently in rare form and Dutch Leonard reeling at the canyon's rocky edge, ready to topple over with a push. In that first assault on Leonard. Brooklyn had two runs over with two more in sight, when Buck Wheat gummed up the rally by wandering away from third base for an easy out. Brooklyn Goea to Pieces. This play scrambled uo the Robins' last assault, and when Hobby walked in ine second, Lewis doubled and Gard ner interpolated a four-bagger, there was nothing to it beyond the detail of the closing date. Krom the moment that Gardner's long blow shoved hi mates out into the lead, Brooklyn's of fense and defense went into mourning with crepe pinned in clusters upon the door of vanished hope. As Gardner puttered over the plate back of Hobby and Lewis. Manacrer Bill Carrigan, Mother-goosing after his Quaint manner of Tuesday, hummed softly to himself: Sing a song of sixty per cent, pockets full of aougn; Four and twenty robins strung up In a row: When the battle opened I heard their rooters' fci imwk - Sut what show has a robin When it comes upon a hawk? Leonard Steadies Quickly. This harassing smash by Gardner who moved up with John Franklin Baker by collecting two home runs on two successive days, did something more man upset .Brooklyn, in addition it Immediately steadied Dutch Leonard, who in that first round came within one punch of blowing the entire works It would be hard to say who steadied Leonard the more Wheat or Gardner. Wheat's poor base-running gave the southpaw hisfirst breathing spell and Gardner's drive did the rest. Before Wheat faltered you might say that Leonard was Dutch and behaved as such" after the manner of the late Mr. Uarryl. But from that one snot on through the rest of the game the big left-hand er held Brooklyn runless with only three hits to show for the last eight cantos. Leonard failed to yield a hit after the fifth, inning, showing the waning power of the Robin assault. Rucker Responds Nobly. Marquard, who started with a fine show of working stuff, lasted but four innings. When Lewis singled and Car rigan drove the Duffy boy home in the fourth, the Rube was cast adrift for Larry Cheney. Larry lasted three in nings, until Nap Rucker, after a 10 year wait, got his first world series chance. The Marietta marvel, who in his prime was known as the king of left handers, responded with all his pris tine eclat. But six men faced him in his two rounds, and he struck out three of these, to prove the old wing was still banging to nls left shoulder. As Nap struck out Bill Carrigan In the ninth the Red Sox manager turned to- Chief Meyers with this remark: "If this guy is all through, I'm glad. I never had to face him when he was right. I never saw a better curve ball in my life." Ruckers three strikeouts recall queer twist to the day's play. While Boston hammered both Marquard and Cheney hard, pounding out ten hits for 15 bases and six runs, no less than 11 Rex Sox batsmen struck out. It isn' very often that you see 11 men whiffed upon a club that is whaling the eternal padding out of the ball round after round. The most, interesting angle of the BINS DREAM GOES J Brooklyn pilot. On game in many ways was a triangle a Brooklyn triangle, composed of Meyers, Marquard and Merkle. When the big smear arrived in the second, these three ex-Giants found themselves facing their fourth world s series defeat. They had lost first back in 1911, when the Mackmen swarmed all over their frames. Their second voyage into the Port of Doom came in 1912, when Bos ton triumphed. The same three were involved in the Giant defeat of 1913. when the Mackmen made it four out of five. And they were again, in alien har ness, finding in Brooklyn what they found with New York the soothing solace of 40 per cent. They had been over the road before, so they must have been accustomed to the shock, and acclimated to the chilling winds of de feat. After all, four 40 per cents make 160 per cent., and 160 per cent isn't the worst investment a man ever made. As Julius Caesar did not say, "I had rather get 40 per cent in a little Iberian vil lage' than no per cent In Rome." Those who car- to, Josh them as they will. But we know of more than one earnest athlete who would be willing enough to collect S10.000 in four 40 per cent splits. In addition to Leonard's steady pitch ing after the first reel and Boston's aggressive attack, there was. the same safe and sure consistency to the Red Sox' defense afield. Scott's Fieldlnc Perfect. Young Scott completed another er rorless afternoon. His favorite ditty now is: "This is the end of a perfect fielding day." So far he has run down 29 chances without a. slip, and about 12 of these have called for long, accurate throws into Hobby's waiting mitt, where a matter of one or two feet either way would have lost the runner. Scott's in field exhibition so far has never been surpassed, unless by Buck Herzog in 1912. In this fourth game the Red Sox out field again ranged far and wide for every offered chance. There is no such snappy phrase as "hitting 'em where they ain't," as applied to this trio, with Lewis and Hooper featured. This circling pair of hawks pulled down no less than 10 Robins in the day's hunt. and three of these accepted chances killed impending doubles. Brooklyn's defense was as spotty as Boston's was sure. The Robins onjy rau up four misplays. but there were other times where tney failed to ar rive on drives that Boston would have Bmothered. Part of this may have been due to the velocity of blows, for the leaders went after Marquard and Cheney with robust vigor, not to say virile force. The difference between the two teams defensively is partly shown by these succulent statistics: Boston so far has acqepted 200 chances with only four errors: Brooklyn in 185 chances has run up 10 errors. And beyond these figures, Boston has gone out and gotten drives that Brooklyn fielders would never have reached. Brooklyn, in this fourth game, had two chances to raise trouble. The first came in the opening reel, when John ston tripled. Myers singled. Merkle walked. Wheat then forced Myers at second, but on Javrin's error Merkle scored and Wheat reached third. Brook lvn here had two runs over with run ners on first and third, with only one out. With Leonard reeling and Bos ton bothered, Cutshaw started to steal. Wheat ambled off third and was promptly nailed 10 feet from the base. Olson Misses Chance. Brooklyn's last chance came in the fourth, when Cutshaw doubled and Mowrey walked. Olson was called up to sacrifice, but In place of advancing the two runners on where a bit would tie the score he lifted a weak pop to Hobby. That was enough to convince the audience at large and also at heart that Brooklyn was not in a. winning mood. The Red Sox worked Cheney for four hits and two runs in -his three innings, so after all old Nap Rucker was the solo Robin pitcher able to apply the brakes. - Brooklyn left for Boston, depending now upon Sherrod Smith. Carrigan has his choice between Snore and Ruth with Shore favored. If Shore loses, the Red Sox still have Ruth and Leonard left. Admitting the oft-exploited un certainty of our National frenzy, you can figure for yourself how much you would care to have wagered on the Brooklyn club. Plays in Detail N" EW YORK, Oct, 11.

World's Series Observations w ITU a record of two home runs In two days, Larry Gardner, of the Boston Red Sox, threatens to prove another "Home-Run" Baker, who broke up a couple of games for Philadelphia In the world's series against the Giants a few years ago. Gardner has been Bofton's property since 1908. when the Sox sent a scout to the University of Vermont and In duced him to sign a contract. Gardner was farmed to Lynn of the New Eng land League in 1908. returning to Bos ton the following season. Since then he has played continuously, first In utility role, then succeeding McConnell at second base and later being moved to third. The "doping" on Gardner should be remembered by the fans who do their own figuring, for It proves that no dope is infallible. l.at year Gardner batted only .258 and did not rank as a world- beater by any means.
