Indians Bnnch Hits and Score
Only Runs of Game in First
Two Innings.
CLEVELAND. Sept. 24. "Walter
Mails, Cleveland's left-handed recruit
pitcher from the Pacific Coast league,
was too much for the Chicago White
Sox today and they lost their oppor
tunity to take the lead in the Amer
ican league race in this series by los
ing. 2 to 0. The Chicago players are
1 Ms games behind the leaders, and if
they win tomorrow they would still
be one-half game behind Cleveland.
Mails had the White Sox batters
badly puzzled and won his fifth con
secutive victory since joining Cleve
land. He allowed only three hits and
struck out six men. Jackson hit a
ningle in the first with two men out.
In the fourth, Eddie Collins and
Felsch got one each.
Bag;! Full, Mails Fans Tiro.
The local southpaw .was in danger
only in the fifth inning, but by phe
nomenal pitching he extricated him
self. After striking out Risberg-.
Mails lost control long enough to
issue three of his five bases on balls,
filling the sacks. He then steadied
himself and retired the side by fan
ning Weaver and Eddie Collins in suc
cession. With this exception, only
two men reached second Eddie
Collins in the first and fourth. The
side was retired in order in five of
the nine innings.
, The Indians bunched six of their
nine hits In the first two Innings and
scored the only runs of the game.
From then on Faber pitched air-tight
ball and only four Cleveland players
reached fy-st base. Smith "ot as far
as second in the eighth, when he and
Oardner singled. Spectacular fielding
by Weaver. Johnson. Smith, Sewell
and Wambsganss cut down several
hits.
3000 Seats Removed.
Approximately 20.000 fans saw the
contest. Internal revenue department
agents were stationed at League park
to apprehend those who are not turn
ing in the war tax on scalpers' tickets.
Because of the persistence with
which the White Sox hit the ball into
the left-field crowd. Manager Speaker
of the Indians had the .playing field
cleared of all extra seats, thus cutting
the capacity of the park by fully 3000.
President Dunn of Cleveland agreed
with his manager that it was better
to forfeit a few thousand dollars
rather than lose the game because of
the presence of the crowd on the field.

Wilton Lackaye Declares Ho Went
to Console Manager of Giants
on Expulsion From Club.
NEW" YORK. Sept. 24. Wilton
Lackaye, the actor, is in a hospital
suffering from a fractured ankle re
ceived, he explained today, when John
McGraw, manager and part owner of
the. New York Giants, hit him as he
was leaving McGraw's home last Sat
urday, supposedly good friends.
The actor declared that when he
was bidding: McGraw "good night;"
the Giant's manager put out his right
hand as if to shake hands, but instead
suddenly shot his left to Lackaye's
Jaw. Lackaye fell to the floor and
fractured his ankle. -
Meusee Sent to MeCraw. "
"I had been away most of the sum
mer, Lackaye said, "and did not know
much about the recent nasty mess Mc
Graw was mixed up in at the Lambs
club when he got into a fight with
William Boyd. When I returned a mu
tual friend told me McGraw had been
suspended from the Lambs, had lost
most of his friends and felt very bad
"I sent McGraw a message and told
him that I would like to see him, as
I was always his friend. Later I tel
phoned him and he invited me to his
house that was last Saturday night.
I went to the house and in the interest
of friendship I told him the best thing
to do was to forget about the Lambs
affair.
McGraw Growa Suspicious.
."McGraw suddenly became suspi
clous and demanded to know who had
sent me there. I tbld him no one had
sent me and I was acting on my own
initiative. I also told"him that if he
felt any suspicion toward my motives
I would have to leave. It was then
that I put out my hand to shake
hands with McGraw and he attacked
me without warning.
"When I put ou my hand McGraw
Sut out his right hand, but suddenly
rew back with his left- and hit me
on the jaw. I crumpled up on a sofa
by my side with my right ankle
twisted under me. I got up then and
aimed a few wallops at McGraw, but
the fight was stopped by others in
the room. I went to the street with
out assistance and called a cab and it
was not until the next day when I saw
a physician that I learned my ankle
was .fractured."
Attaokt Denied by McGraw.
Mr. McGraw in a statement tonight
denied he had assaulted Mr. Lackaye.
The actor, he added, called at the Mc
Graw apartment about midnight Sat
urday while under the influence of
liquor.
"Lackaye said he understood I was
to make a statement against the
Lambs' club," the statement said. "I
replied if I did it was my own affair.
He became abusive, using vile lan
guage. I remonstrated with him ancU
insisted on him leaving.
"He refused, whereupon two of my
guests escorted him to the door. After
he got outside he kicked ooe. of my
guests and in the scuffle slipped to
the floor."
