Unprecedented Harvest.
vniCAtiO, Oct. S. The caldron Of
baseball is aboil here tonight on the
v of the world series between the
Chicago American and the New York
National League clubs. TZwrv ino
disnt necessary for the most spectacu
lar struggle or recent years has been
contributed by clubs, players and fans.
" me weatner man donates a day in
Keeping with the importance of the
occasion the opening game of the se
ries at Comi3key Park tomorrow should
result, in a battle which will equal in
uriiiiance, tenseness and enthusiasm
mat oi any game in diamond history.
Players, magnates, ticket speculators
and fans from the four corners of the
country have been gathering on the
chores of Lake Michigan for several
days, and the stage is sat for what is
expected to be the most dramatic cli
" to the baseball season of 1917.
To the cities concerned, especially
Chicago, as the scene of the initial
conflict, the Impending battle between
the White Sox and the Ciants is of par
amount importance. It ia the basis and
source of unlimited controversy, wa-
ajiu neariDurn.
Weather Prediction Favorable.
What the morrow holds for the fan
And player in this respect is hard to
forecast tonight. The weather predic
tion for Saturday is fair and cool, but
throughout today there were rain
quails and high gales and tonight
gray clouds hung low and November
JiKe winds were sweeping across the

The weather for the opening game of
2. world series will be "fair."
This bit of information was given by
the Old Roman in the course of a
tanning bee" in one of the offices
at the White Sox Park todav. For
years the president of the American
League champions has relied upon the
accuracy of this almanac. When spe
cial days were given at the park, such
as Frank Chance day, in honor or the
former Chicago National league idol,
who came here as manager of the
New York Yankees, the little book said
'clear and warm," and when a day
was set aside for Ed Walsh last year
the little book again was consulted for
a date promising favorable conditions,
and in both cases the weather was all
that could be desired.

Bettlnar Light; forecasts )r).
If betting was scarce forecasts and
predictions as to the outcome or the
initial game or the series a. whole
made up for any deficiency in this
respect. The fans of the competing
wuus uiu noi hesitate to VOi their
opinions in no uncertain terms. Play
ers, managers and magnates. while
more conservative, stin let it be known
that they believed their respective
clubs would quickly establish a lead
which would indicate' the relative
strength or the two combinations.
Manager Clarence Rowland, speaking
for the Chicago club and players, said:
"This series means a great deal to
mcago ana we nave not left a wheal
Unturned to bring the world's Cham
pionship to Comiskey. We. realize that
Giants are a real team, but the
White Sox had to battle all season In
our own league with three or four
clubs that wera as touch or toucher

Invading Fans Crowd Hotels.
From far points In all sections of
the country thirty-third degree base
ball fans have come to witness what
they confidently predict will be the
greatest world series in many sea
sons. The hotels are thronged tonight
wim inese . invaders rrom distant ter
ritory, and late comers are having dif
ficulty in securing accommodations.
Their troubles are as nothing com
pared to those of persons who purchase
tickets to the game at this lt hour
It Is doubtful if in the long history of
woria series contests the pasteboards
necessary to sain admission to the
parks have ever been so scarce. For
once in their tempestuous career the
ticket speculators are forced to see
prospective purchasers with fists full of
bills seek vainly for the cards which
will on Saturday separate the chosen
and those who must remain outside the
walla.
Those fortunate speculators who have
been able to secure tickets are reaping
ft golden harvest almost-. the equal of
that gathered by the lucky and shrewd
Investors who picked up "war bride"
stocks in the early days of the Euro
pean war. Between them and the fan
who would see the series at any price
more is little or no arguing tonight.
100,000 Want to See Opener.
Once a vendor is found who holds the
"open sesame" to Comiskey field the
transaction or parting him from his
coupons is a matter of but a moment in
ws. lor me ian is apparently
"'"ins to pay any amount. Five dol
lar seats for the three games with a
face value of 115 sold as high as $75.
and even these figures are likely to be
surpassed if the weather is fair tomor
row. It was estimated by a local baseball
authority tonight that there would
have been no difficulty in selling fully
100,000 seats for the opening game.
Thousands of orders have been turned
back, and President Comiskey said to
night that he feared that he had lost
a host of friends due to his inability
to supply all with tickets for the series.
Those who could not secure seats in
the ordinary way" paid the speculators
their own prices, if money was no ob
ject. If they could not meet the latters'
flemands they might be certain of gain
lng a choice seat in the unreserved sec
tion of the stands.
Ticket Line Forma Early.
At the hour when the staid citizen
was homing his way to dinner the lines
were already forming outside the por
tals of White Sox field.
Equipped with chairs, blankets,
lunches and other comforts for Inner
and outer man. the fans began to
gather. Boys and young men pre
dominated, but here and there could be
"een a woman or an elderly man who
bore the discomforts of the long wait
with the same apparent nonchalance
of their more youthful companions.
Venders, quick to take advantage of
the situation, appeared with lunch
stands, and sandwiches, coffee, cush
ions and tobacco were soon on sale, and
business was brisk throughout the
hdurs as midnight approached.
Although confidence was rampant
among the camp followers or the two
teams there was little evidence of
heavy wagering. Most of the betting
was confined to sums ranging from S5
to $25 and these amounts were placed
ext or close to even money. It is prob-

'evidence" to the tender mercy of a
group of hangers-on about tho Union
Depot yesterday afternoon. Patrolman
Vessey could have captured the most
careful and at the same time most
frightened bootlegger who has visited
the Ron City in recent weeks. But the
thoughtful patrolman decided that the
evidence was in more need of a care
taker than to take a chance in losing
both the liquor and Its owner.
In his rounds about the depot, Vessey
came upon a trunk which had been
checked from San Francisco to Jeffer- .
son. Or., and from there on to Port
land. Instantly his suspicions were
roused.' He hurried to police head
uarters and secured a search warrant,

trunk when its owner mil in annA

trunk.
