The Boston Ited Sox and Brooklyn Dodgers
met here this afternoon In the fifth game
of the 191S world's'serles. The crowd num
bered about 35.000, according to tho con
sensus of expert opinion, although no offi

The weather was chilly, but the sun was
shining brightly, and the field was In per
fect condition for tho fray, which Boston
followers believed would be the last of the
series. The usual band concert preceded
the game, and the Royal Itooters rehearsed
"Tesslo" as they waved their crimson ban
ners. Both teams appeared on the field shortly
after 1 o'clock, and the Ited Sox lmmedl-
ntely began batting practice. The crisp
weather put a lot of pepper Into the men.
and they frisked around the big lot speedily
as they chased the long drives from the
regulars' bats.

It Oias been a life-Jong ambition of
Ilucker to pitch In a world's series, but If
It had ot' been for the large lead got
by the American League champions, he
probably would have complted his career
without realiilng his ambition, os Man
ager Robinson was guided by sentiment In
picking the' famous southpaw to finish the
contest
For years Itucker was recognized as the
greatest left-hander in the National League,
but then he was In his' prime, the Dodgers
were a tall-end team nd the southerner
really (itched his arm away for a hope
less cause. Kate decreed that Ilucker
should have trouble with his arm Just
when Brooklyn developed a strong team,
but If ho never pitches another brilliant
game, he at least can look with pride on
his two-Inning work against the IteJ Sox.
It developed today that the former
Mackmen who now are with the Red Sox,
will not fare as well from the world series
as was expected. At a meeting of the vet
eran members of the Red Sox. It was de
cided that Weldon -"Wyckoff and Herb Pen

them, while Jlmmle Walsh would split a
share with two other players who have
not been with the team all season.
It was announced last night that the
deal between Charles Ehbets and his
partners for the sale of the Brooklyn fran

operator, had not been completed and that
James Gaftney, former owner of the Bos

accompanied the Dodgers to Boston and
had a long talk with Ebbets, after which It
was said that the deal had just about been
consummated, although It Is reported that
Qaffney and Feltman may decide to be
come partners In the venture. It la reason
ably certain that Ebbets will retire from
the game before next spring even If the

President of tho Boston Red Sox.
BOSTON, Oct 12. When the wirld'a
series Is over two men, who have done (more
for baseball In Boston than any president
and manager ever connected with tho lo-'
cat American League probably will bo re
tired from the game. A Boston victory
today will clinch the world's tltlo for the

very close to President Johnson, of tho Ju

BUI Carrlgan announced a few weeks ago
thjffafter the series he positively would re

etWfement was not taken seriously, but he
told' us .this morning that he never would

that he also would resign as manager of

surprise was expressed that President
Johnson did not kick up a rtlmpus, but it
develops that Johnson did not want any
scandal during tho playing season, particu

The suggestion comes from a publication,
which Is computed as one ot tho most con
aervatlve, level-headed and sound of Ha
kind, that If Philadelphia was only honest
with herself, that If properties In the city
were taxed on their actual values, or their
owners' valuations, Philadelphia would not
need to raise the tax rate as much aa It la
plannod.
This publication la the Advance, .pub
lished by the Corn Exchange National
Bank, and edited and largely written by
the president of that bank,,, .Charles 8. Cal
well. The Advance estimates that In one part
of the 2lty alone, the most valuable part,
the city Is forgoing tho collection of $:,0,00,
000 In taxes by underassessment.
It cites some cases In which the assess
ments are farfl?elow the figures at which
the owner holds the "properties, and thia
this comment Is made:
WHEHB VAT.UES AltB
"Philadelphia's real estate valuation, oa
which taxea wire collected during the pres
ent year, had a total of 1 1.704,000,000. Of '
this large sum, about 1(00,000,000, or, la
round numbers, one-third', represents six
teen square miles of property located south
of Market street and between tho Delaware"
and Bchuylklll Rivers. Out of these six
teen squaro nVRes of city territory, J80,
000,000 of the WttO.000,000 valuation con
centrates In less than one square rails of
the sixteen square miles forming the tract
In question. In other words, one squaro
mile Is assessed for $150,000,000 and fifteen "'
square miles for $200,000,000 on dfvUton
being assessed at the rato of $350,000,60
the square mile, the other at the rate oi.
$13,JB0.000 the. squaro mile. The two cases'
quoted where, out of the mouth of ,lho
owners of the property, an Increased valve w
of one hundred per cent is demanded aro

figure.
