of the Great Conflict in
Which Athletics Lost.
CHICAGO, III.. Oct. tr.-Among the
prominent members of the Iiapcball pro
fession in Chicago yesterday were "Bill"
James, ono of the star twlrlers of the
Boston Braves, and Ira Thomas, field
gfiietal of tho Philadelphia Athletics.
They are now members of tho NatlomI
anil American Lcaguo's baseball touilni;
pnrtv headed for California and Honolulu.
Both talked willingly of the recent
woild's icrles, a scries that will live
long as ono of tho gieatest and most
aiLtontshlng In the hlntory of baseball.
Their statonu-ntn follow:
By BUI James:
"I kept working nil tho time and put
a lot of stuff on every ball. It has been
Eald that wo 'slow-balled' tho Athletics to
(Until, and I gut'is that Is the right 'dope.'
I used very few fast balls when I was
pitching. Wo knew that the Athletics
loved speed and Stulllngs cautioned us
before very game and ihieutcned to do
a lot of things to ua If we slipped up any
fast ones, especially In a pinch.
"Therefore, I relied almost entirely on
:ny Mow ball and 'spltter.' When the
heavy hitters like Baker, Collins and tho
rest of them planted their spikes In tho
(lilt nnd tot for a fast one, I crossed
thorn with a slow one, and some of them
almost bioke their backs.
"A whole lot has been eald about what
our pitchers did, but I want to tell you
I ihat wo had gieat support Jlaianvlllc
nnd Evera played the si cutest ball 1 have
, over teen. Every man that got Into tho
' games had the team spirit. I honestly
I believe wo have got the gnmest ball club
In the buslnets.. and unless I am badly
mistaken wo should be u good ball club
fr several seasons to come."
R' Ira Thomas:
"We liad no cuse to offer when the
srtn3 closed nnd we have none to offcj
now' v'e nore 'mply outplayed by the
Huston team. I guess wo did hold them
,0 cheaply before the seiles started, but
ne certainly did not nam mem cheaply
after that first game, when they gave us
a T to I lacing
"It Is very true that they caught us
when tve were In a batting slump, but
tliut Is no excuse. They were jubt as
liable to s'ump as we were, but they did
not. They wore certainly a game bunch
of young fellows. Their gameness, you
might say freshness, surprised us. We
were played right off our feet before we
realized what was happening.
"We played our hardest at nil times.
None of our gang quit, hut the heart was
taken out of some of teh bunch after we
dropped two straight games at home
The Braves played the bettor ball, and
that's all there Ib to tho argument. Wo
American Leaguers will try to get even
with the National League on the present
tour-"

REJOICE TO BEHOLD
HEAVY DOWNPOURS
Rain Welcomed by Golfers
Who Have Tired of Play
ing on Baked Links and
Want Mashie Shots on
Green.
Kvery groens commltteo "in tills section
of tho country hns been praying for rain,
nnd yestcrdny's deluge certainly was n
blessing In disguise for the many courses
In the Philadelphia district. On seaside
courses rain or no rnln makes very little
difference, for the sandy nature of tho
soil keeps tho ground soft enough to sat
isfy the good player. Jt Is true, however,
that the medium player prefers playlsg
on the baked links, for It makes llttlo
or no dlfleronce whether n tec shot In
cleanly hit or topped, as the distance In
the end is about the same. But when It
comes to the delicate mashie shots to
the green, then It Is different. Real golf
calls for pitching the approaches boldly
up to the pin, Instead of the runnlng-up
shots that hao been used during the dry
spell If the rain holds off today nnd
tomorrow, record crowds will no doubt
be playing over every course, not only
In thla district, but throughout the entire
middle Atlantic States.
It w in the flrat qualifying round for tho
ojirn champlnnnhlp at Brookllnn last enr
that Wilfred Held, Ilnnstcnd Downs, England,
nnd II. CI. MucDonalrt, of Cincinnati, net n
new record for the course. Both went around
in 72. In tho second round of the play for
the championship. Harry Vardon equalled thU
72, and In the plny-off of tho triple tie, Frun
cla Oulmet aet the amateur record at that
figure. The Urookllne course 1b within a. full
rrushlo (hot of Oulmet'o home and la his fa
vorite courr,e On several occasions he has
bettered his former record of T-. but not
until the ouallfjlns round of the tournament
this ueek has he done It In competition. Ills
record 1 now 71, aealnst a par of 73 for
the 6213-j ard course.
Mrs. E. II. Filler, who has been troubled
Hh neuritis recently, decided upon taking
no chances In the rain esterday, and as Mrn.
R. II. Harlow felt somewhat the same about
It, they mutually decided to tall oft their
mnlch In the final of Mrs. Thomas' tnurna
mem at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, nnd It
will bo played on Monday. Mrs. Filler de
feated Mrs Harlow earlier In the season nnd
In ao dolns registered the only defeat sus
tained against Mrs. Harlow In a local event
this season.
The Women's National was In progress at
Nassau nt the same time the St. Martin's
Cup lournnment was In progress at the
Cricket Cluti. On Friday, somehow or other,
the news reached Rt. Martin's ahat both Mrs.
Vanderbeck and Mrs. Harlow had won their
matches tn the semi-final round and would
meet In the final the neit day. Tha Joy of
the local colfera uai short-llted, howeier,

the evening papers and read than both had
