The un conquerable spirit to keep on try ing when success doesn't come at first carried the New York, na tionals to a smashing victory, this afternoon In their clash with the New York Americans for the 1&22 title of world baseball champions. The score was S to 2. To overcome a 2 to 0 lead tnat the Yanks had acquired, the Giants, turned back in all their previous assaults upon the Amer ican leaguers' 'defense, crashed out four singles, on right after another in the eighth inning and then, crowned their furious attack with et sacrifice fly. The four hits crushed Joe Bush, the Yank speedball pitcher, and tied the score, waite Hoyt succeeded Bush, and on his fourth delivery gave the sacrifice fly which scored the deciding run of the game. Climb Is Slow The winning machine climbed the hili in low speed. Early In the game, when Bush and Arfi Nehf, the -Giant southpaw,' were fighting a scoreless duel, the Na tionaie couldn't score with?', two sr 'cesslve singles. In the seventh inning they banged out three sin gles in a row' and couldn't score. The Giants simply went back in the eighth inning and kept' on pounding out singles until it was impossible for the stubborn Yank defense to prevent them from crossing the plate. Babe Ruth, the celebrated home run swatter, swung violently at the ball all afternoon. Nothing that even left the Impression that he could hit a home, runcame from his heavy bat. but he did bank fx. out a single that broke through the monotony of. the early score- ess Innings which Nehf and Bash imposed upon the batters. Ruth's timely hit came In the sixth in ning. Whitey Witt, the Yank's center fieldeV, bad Blammed a triple into, left field and had been rpn down when he tried for home on a blow to short from the bat of Joe Dugan. As Witt lost his chase to the plate, Dugan galloped on to second base, and from there he was sent in with the first run of the series when Ruth punched a short single Into Tight field. Meusel Comes Rome In the next inning the Yanks got their second run. Bob Xleu eel singled past Heinle Gioh. Walley Schang laid down a bunt to push Meusel along to second. but before the Giants got through playing with the bunt, he had reached third. Nehf. in picking up the soft tap that Schang laid in front ot the plate, decided tojtry to catch Meu rel at second instead of being sat isfied with the out at first. He threw wild and the ball went past the second baseman and into the right field. There it was fumbled by Young. This lapse permitted Schang to reach second while Meusel went to third. Aaron Ward . then lifted a fly almost to the center If eld jbleachera -and Meusel trotted home. Neither Nehf nor Bush was able to finish, the Job, i;ach was suf fering from a stone bruise on the heel." For six innfngsjt 'appeared that, like Achilles, they' had only this one vulnerable spot.' " But these apearances did not deceive the. men hired to hit for;; John McGraw and Miller Hoggins. Nehf. niixlnghls'slow ball with his Fpeedier serrlce In a Tafflin medley,' had the.

A. E. Soper, 'retired business man of Highland Park, came font ward with a story of this car.i Nearly three weeks ago on the night of the' murders. Soper, told the authorities, he passed a sedan injDerussy's lane, close to the spot where the bodies were found. He turned his searchlight on the car, he said, and observed that it contained two nen and a woman. Although he failed to recognise any of the trio, he said, he observed that the woman wore ight coat. , Think Elopement Planned Mrs. Hallr is known 'to- have worn a polo coat ot light gray on that night, when, according to her story, she left her home after midnight to seek -her missing hus band in his study at the" church of St. John the Evangelist. Mrs. Hall has told the investigators she was . accompanied by her brother "Willie" Stevens, an ec centric New. Brunswick., charac ter. Witnesses.' who saw her re enter her home say she returned alone. The Halls own a sedan car, .which the. minister left in the garage when be went, to what proved his death tryst. Tnree more bits . of evidence supporting the theory t3at the minister and . Mrs. Mills were on the point of eloping to the 'Orient when they were slain, also came to light today.. One was a letter believed to have been written by Mrs. Mills only a few hours before she met her death. , Authorities withheld the contents of this letter which it wasadmitted, was fountain the dead clergyman's pocket.' It was learned, however, that It contain ed the expression "Oh, for the time when I can do your mend ing" Find New Letters It is by this that the author! ties fix the time when it was written. They hare learned, it was disclosed, that the day before the double slaying the minister, Mrs Hall. Mrs. Mills and Mrs. Minnie Clark had a picnic to Lake Hopatong, and that an Incident of the trip-was that the minister tore his trousers climbing a barb ed wire fence and had Mrs. Hall mend them. Another evidence of the sup posed elopement plan was con tained in a letter from W. C. Hin- hia a Hindu occultist, of Miami, Kla. - Hinhia wrote that Mrs. Mills had sent him a letter pro pounding these three questions: "Win the minister get a . di vorce?" , 'Will ie go to a foreign coun try?" 'If he gives up the other wo man and goes to the Orient, shall go with him?" He said that he had answered he could give her advice which would "do good" If she would buy his book on astrology, but that he had heard no further from her. The third indication of an elopement plan was conveyed to the authorities in a report of the temark of a woman member of the churcn which was said to have been made- at Mr. Hall's funeral. i - "Well, they are takiinf the m!n ister obt of the church", she waa reported to hare said as the funeral, service was concluded, "they didn't get off to Japan after all." - ' DE1QNSTMTK STAGED I STREETS BY STUDENT THRONG Changes in Courses, Curtailing: of Credits and Suppres sion of Activities Cause of Resentment Resolution to be Presented Fni&;TbuUtt,lai.Ne';!rJeetb2 Youel Issues Statement SILVERTON, Ore., Oct 4.
