ARREST SCALPERS
OF "SMALL FRY," BUT
LET "BIG GUNS" WORK
Baseball Ticket Speculators
Hawk Their Wares on
Streets Again, Though
Police Have Orders to
Stop Them.
The police campaign against "small
fry" scalpers of world series tlclcta was
continued today. Several of the less Im
portant sptculatora wuic artcsted during
the night and arraigned this morning for
healings before Magistrate Itenshaw, at
Central Station, and the "big Runs" were
UnAioWtcd.
Today the really Important scalpers
ner still busily at work on Chestnut md
Broad strocts. flaunting large hatches of
tlckite In the faces of pedestrians. Re
serve, trafllo and every other type of
policemen paid no attention to them. The
scalping Roes merrily on.
The "little men" are becoming fright
ened and are using more care today In
disposing of their wates. Expenses of
employing counsel to get out of the
clutches of the police take away nil
their prollts. and they are doing every
thing possible to avoid arrest.
Among those nrralgned 'hla morning
was a man who gave his name as Harry
Jtaglls and who literally arrested him
self. Raglls went up to Police Captain
Tempest Inst night at 13th and Chestnut
street and asked him It he had any world
series tickets to sell.
The lieutenant, who was in citizen's
clothing, explained that he had not, and
then Haglls offeted to sell tickets. Before
Tempest could reply Baglls caught him
by the arm and started to walk him up
Chestnut street, talking volubly and quot
ing rates. At Broad street the scalper
turned north. Appi eclating the Joke,
Captain Tempest permitted himself to be
led Into a shadowy corridor in City Hall.
Then he took charge of the situation,
when Raglis tried to stop, and took the
man to the roll room on the slKth floor.
Bates dropped today on all classes of
tickets, but not appreciably. There were
fewer scalpers on the streets, due to the
fact that most purchasers took scats for
all three games. The demand, however,
li still large, and the scalpers arc not
losing money.
RUDOLPH EXPLAINS TROUBLE
BETWEEN TEAMS' HEADS
Boston Pitcher Also Gives Gowdy
Credit for Victory.
A new light on the Maek-Stalllngs con
troversy unr furn'shed today by Dick
Rudolph, victorious pitcher of the open
ing game, win. said Connie Mack refused
to permit tin' Boston Braves to practice
at Shlbe Park, because of a sloping
pitcher's box, well calculnaed to confuse
any twlrler not ac-ustomed to Its use.
nuilolph would say but little lcgardlng
the unpleasantness betvvcen the two mnn
ngers. eNccpt that. In his opinion, the
arrangement of the pitching box was part
of the Mack tactics and strategy which
the Athletics' manager did not care to
have known until It "as necessary.
Uudolph praised the work of his team
In y.-sterdav'B contest He modestly ills
claimed gicat credit and said Catcher
Gowdy deserved as much praise as he.
CnncniiiiK his victory, Rudolph said:
"How could ou expect a man to feel,
after winning a game like that? When
I went into the box In the nrst Inning, I
felt a little tlmltl. an I faced the tlrsfbat
ter nf 'Muulrrer' Bow. The batters 1
feared most wrn Collim and Baker.
"When the second Inning started I re
gained ray confidence and after that
everything went well. I felt sorty for
Jack Barry, who tried his best to get
a hit, but failed. It was not masterful
pitching that tton the game for me. ana
Catcher Gowdv deserves as much cretui
as I do. I aid not think the Athletics
were hitting at nil well, so 1 simply out
guessed them."
Ttudolph would not discuss the possi
bility of todaj'a game.
The Boston team spent a quiet morning
at the Hotel Majestic. Before bieakfast
the plaers sat about, discussed the re
sult of jeslerday's contest and the merits
of various members of the Athletics.
With the nppearance somo time later
of Manager Stalllngs. the entire team
held a conference with Its chief.
Many flowers have been sent to various
members of the Braves' team by admir
ing fans In this city. Some came from
Boston. The flowers were placed on dis
play for n while, and It was later an
nounced they would be distributed among
Philadelphia hospitals.
CALL NAVY STUBBORN
Club Members Disappointed at Fail
ure to Arrange Army Game.
SEW YORK, Oct 10. Stubbornness on
the part of those In control of athletic
affairs at the Naval Academy Is blamed
for the pretent acute situation in athletic
relations between the two service schools
of the 1'nlted States, In the opinion of
the members of the Army and Navy Club.
A canvass of the sentiments of the of
ficers of both branches of the service
disclosed the fact that theie would be
Keen disappointment among the grad
uates if there came any interruption to
the annual football struggle between the
elevens of the cadets and the midshipmen.
Navy officers declare that the Annapolis
authorities should concede a point to the
rather fair proposition of the Army coun
cil, which proposes a ten-year agreement
Uh games alternating between cities
selected by the rival Institutions no
further north than New York and no
further south than Washington. Hope Is
felt that the pressure of those prominent
In the service may effect a reconciliation
In time to assure the annual game this
ear.
Let us cease this sad repining, let us chuck away the gloom,
Let us "can" the inquest stuff and alibi-ing;
In the lexicon of champions there is no post-mortem room,
Let us blame the God of Love and out out sighing.
For if Boston tvins the championship Hank Gowdy wm3 a mvte,
And Cupid on his shoulder has been sitting;
Which provides a goodly reason for the catcher's lightning rate,
And another explanation of liis hitting.

The arrest of Mlllett and Sheehan fol

stealing of an automobile the from the
machine of Frank B. Johnston, CC2ij Mc

ATHLETICS' LOSS PUTS
POLICEMAN BEHIND BARS
Guardians at law and Order, Disap
pointed, Seeks Solace in Saloon.
There Is no sadder man In this city
today than Policeman Patrick Klrby.
When the Athletics lost yesterday Kit by
also lost his spirits. But, fortunately, ho
mudo up for the loss by getting In touch
with more spirits far away from hU
district, which is the 53th and Pine streets
station.
Klrby, It appears, was detailed to help
handle the crowds nt the world's series
game. He anticipated a decisive victory
for the home team, nnd when the Biaves
brought run after run across the home
plate he couldn't tolerate such a condi
tion. But Just how the policeman lost his
bearings and got to 12th nnd Filbert
streets on his way to 55th and Pine from
"1st nnd Lehigh avenue is a matter of
conjecture.
While In a saloon near Filbert street
early this morning, It seems that Klrby
attempted to tell others Just how the
Athletics lost. Ho became so noisy In
his explanation that ha was oidered out.
In the meanwhile Policeman McMullIn,
of the llth and Winter streets station,
happened along, and, hearing the racket,
ran Inside. Klrby objected to being ar
rested by another policeman, but could
not specify clearly Just who he would
like to be arrested by. Bven the ap
plication of the brother policeman's club
did pot seem to Impress him. Finally
ho was half carried to the Winter street
station house and placed In a cell.
Magistrate Tiacy made every effort to
learn how Klrby got Into the district,
but the prisoner did not know, nor did
he care. He was held in $500 ball for a
further hearing.
BETTING IS BRISK TODAY

money lender who does business with
Harvard students, won $3CO) on yester
day's game, giving odds of two to on.
Many bets were made by Bostonlans on

SPECULATORS REAPING RICH
HARVEST FROM ARDENT FANS
Places in Xine at Shibe Park Bring
High Prices.
Speculators at the baseball grounds to
tiny reaped a rich hurvest due to the
Athletics' ilcftnt yesterday. Offers of
icats and places in line were snapped up
at almost any price because of the desire
of ardent Philadelphia rooters to see their
home team retrieve Itself today. Good

William Hawkey, S65 Gilmore avenue.
Brooklyn, who came to Philadelphia to
seek a fortune and obtained 15th position
from the ticket window, refused to sell
his place for loss than $15. He was of
fered $12 and tefused. They say tho de
sire to see the Athletics win today's
game is greater than the pleasure of
making money.
The business of scalping places in line
Is being conducted outside the ball
grounds along the lines of a well-organ-l7ed
business. The scalper, who has had
tho forethought to pl.ice a number of
smnll boys In line to hold places for him,
now goes nmong tho crowd nnd offers
the-o stntlons for no modest sum. Usual
lv his offers are quickly snnpped up.
Passengers alighting from street cars
anywhere within n radius of six blocks
from Shibe Park -ire assailed on every
side by speculators, who have places In
the bleacher line to offer. These Bell at
various prices, from $1 up.
Thomas Burk, an old man, of 15(3 Le
high avenue, complained to the police
that he sold his place in line and re
ceived a counterfeit $3 bill in exchange.
Lieutenant Boyle, of the Park and Le
high avenues btatlon, went with Burke
to tho place In which he had been stand
ing prior to the transaction. The po
sition then wns held by FTank Dowd, of
Hazleton, Ta. Down denied he had pur
chased Burk's place and the crowd sided
with him. No police action was taken.

One Flaunts Holl as Evidence of
Police Co-operation.
Policemen ticket scalpers were further
exposed today at Shlbe Park, when Ed
ward Dehrndt, 2710 Judson street, a 13-year-old
speculator, proudly held up a
roll of $350 In bills nnd said, "The cops
helped me get that." Dehrndt Incident
ally disposed of a single seat In the
stands directly over the Athletic players
bench for $35.
He said ho had been one of Joe Banks'
companions In tho line which formed
nt Gimbel's on the day tickets were llrst
offeted for sale and that the police had
placed him ahead of others at good
places In the line after he had "slipped
them some money."
"I paid out $30 or $40 to cops," said
Dehrndt, "and had no trouble In getting
all the tickets I wanted. If I saw a place
In the line which looked good to me, I
gave a policeman $5 nnd was squeezed
Into the place. Others in the lino ob
jected, but the cops fixed that all right. '
The man who paid $35 for his seat back
of the home players' bench Is William
Lodge, of Logan. Mr. Lodge Is nn en
thusiastic Athletic fan, and said he was
willing to see today's game at any price.

RUNAWAY AUTO PLAYS TAG
AMONG PARKWAY PERGOLAS
Joy Riders Scream, Car Hits Alleged
Ornament and Upsets.
At last It has been discovered why
pergolas were placed In the Parkway.
There Is nothing better to stop balky
automobiles, as Howard Wilson, a Negro,
lfH Sharswood street, who steered a Joy
party of friends early this morning, will
attest.
Wilson speeded up on reaching the
smooth surface of the Parkway, but the
car had only gone a few yards when
It became unmanageable. It took a zig
zag course among the pergolas. The
screams of the passengers did not remedy
matters and, nfter the car described t
circle half a dozen tlmrs, It crashed
against a pergola and upset.
The riders were extricated by a police
man and sent to the Garrettson Hos-
kpltal. They had slight cuts and bruises.
This morning Magistrate Beaton held
Wilson In JSU0 bail for court. Wilson is
a chauffeur for Dr. William Keim, 1715

OPTOMETRISTS DO NOT TREAT
DISEASE, COMPLAINANTS SAY
Examinations in Anatomy nnd
Physiology Hence Superfluous.
Pleas that optometrists made no ef
forts to treat diseases of the eye and
that all cases needing attention were
sent to eye specialists were entered this
morning before Judges Willson and Auden
rled in Common Pleas Court during the
hearing of nn nppllcntlon for nn Injunc
tion to restrain tho State Board of Medi
cal Education nnd Licensure from re
quiring optometrists to pass examinations
In anatomy nnd physiology.
The injunction is sought by Alexander
Mnrtln, ISth nnd Chestnut streets, and
Otto G Hnussman, "TO Chestnut street,
for the Association of Optometrists Last
July the Bureau of Medical Education
issued an order which brings optometrists
under the Jurisdiction of the board and
requires rigid examinations in physiology.
Optometrists confine their work to pre
scribing glasses for near-sighted persons
and others whoso Impaired vision Is not
tho lesult of disease, according to Mr.
Martin. The practice was purely mechan
ical and consisted merely of making
measurements and tests, he declared.
Owen J. Roberts, attorney for the optom
etrists, argued that optometry was
taught In the department of physics at
Columbia University. This, he saldi
proved tnat the practice should not be
legarded ni medical and brought under
the supervision of the State board The
hearing will be continued.
MAYOR PRAISES VICTORS

says he has hope.
The Mayor said: "Inasmuch as the Ath
letics had to be defeated yesterday. I
am glad that It was the Boston team
that did It. The Boston team deservo3
wonderful credit, as It made a splendid
up-hill light I will, however, make no

that ho "stood to lose, no matter which

Drug stores near the ball ground Hid
n good business Inst night. There was
.nmoiiiiiin iii the nil- that developed nun-
dtcdfl of coughs along, the half mile of
fans. All kinds of cold cures nau a inai
to ward off possible attacks of pneu
monia. There wns nnnthor disagreeable sur-

when the walking restnurants Increased
i the price of food. Slim sandwiches,
whhh sold two for five estcrday.
Jumped to five rents each, and coffee
went to the regular restaurant price of
I five cents a cup. It wan learned that
1 the venders had n conference early this
morning, nnd, realizing what a con

ing public, ngrufd to reward themselves
accordingly.
Several of the players on both teams
have received offers from vaudeville man
agers, but the inducements, for some un
known reason, are not as good as In

line who wanted a regular meal paid the
boys for holding their places while they
went to restnurants for breakfast. The
enthusiasts then returned In much better
condition to wait for the battle.
Many of the "roof-top" fans were root
ing hnrd for Boston at yesterday's game.
They had been unable to get seats, com
ing in town at the Inst minute, and they
were particularly bitter, as they asserted
the Philadelphia club had not given them
a square deal.
"Get a megaphone!" shouted a staunch
Philadelphlan to a Brave rooter, who
was making himself heard on a Mth
street roof. The Brave rooter grabbed
a newspaper, obeyed Instructions, and
soon gathered a crowd of several hundred,
who were anxious to hear every play.
Even the home fan stood underneath
and took the "kidding" cheerfully.
Heard from the 20th street roof tops:
"Bender should worry maybe he's only
Stalling." "
"Tho Babbit may only be knee high,
but he's got some reach he Just knocked
down the score board."
"If any one wants to buy me a drink
they will have to wait until the game Is
over," said ono of the men who were
using megaphones to give the plays to
the ones below.
"Did you see that play? The Rabbit
Just stood on his ear to catch that one."
"Double plays don't always win the
game."
"Wheooooo (war whoop) did you see
that strike?" yelled one fan who was
several blocks back.
Fans who sold their places and then
refused to give them up caused several
fights in the line this morning. In one
Instance the buyer of the space dragged

that It was the beginning of the end.
This species of humanity was especially
prevalent in tho hotel corridors this
morning.
Although ttvr ot the fans wouM admit
that they were ever on the police force,
many of them Acquired the knack of
sleeping while standing up In line. But
It Is necessary to stand on an angle
and wedge one's heels against a piece
of wood. This prevents falling over on
the face. It Is Impossible to fall in
any -ther direction, for tho surrounding
fans hold the sleepers safely.
Hundreds of high school boys Joined
the line last night. Many of them are
star players on the school teams and
desire to get a few pointers from the
world's best In today's struggle.
A delegation of clergymen have reser
vations for today's game. One promi
nent minister said "the game gives on
excellent subjects for a sermon, for It
shows In Itself that perseverance enables
)i to overcome obstacles nnd come back
to the homo plate nnd be winners, al
though we may have been down and out."
WHY?
Don't the blonds all sit In the bleachers.
Tho sun preserves tho color?
Did so many Athletics go out on strikes
when they're not union men?
Do the fans want to sit on Iapp when
he gave such good support.
Not make tho femalo fans take their
hnts off nt a men's show?
Do so many poaches go In pairs to tho
came when a single girl has the best
chance near a diamond?
Does the thin man sit down so wide and
become narrow when he's criticised?
Dof-8 the sandwich man try to Inflict his
food upon the people at the most critical
time In the game?
Do the turnstile men growl at the bleach
rrites? They should remember that ons
good turn deserves another.

"You'll miss today's game, though,"
said the clerk. "How can you get there
