Nothing, not wen a blizzard, could keep tho mob away, for the tip lias gono out that tho Sox ate ready to fcop tho 'cliamplonshlp nnd the bugs have a keen desire to see how it is done, Two hours before game time the luleachcra wore loaded and the pavilions Bnowcd eIkiis of 'occupancy. The cus tomary band played customary music, -i and, the f&ns were in condition to ap preciate It. The teams were late in appearing. but there" was some cxclternqnt when a jjant named Perry Weiss, o llcau mont, Tex., who hocked a couple, of oil'wells to bet that the Iteds would win 1ke aeries, appeared with the announce ment that he offered a $M0 watch to" tho Cincinnati player ,jvlio brolie up 'the game this afternoon' and ?o00 to TTod Eller if ho turned In a victory. These money-mad guys sure will try to get that money. Weatller Right Slier was chosen to do the hurling nnd Moran said tho day was ideal for him. Hod always goes big when clouds nre in tha sky and tho atmosphere is murky. "I feel sure ho will win today," said Pat, befora the gume.- "It's time for nur hard luck to end. That one final gnme is harder to grab than the other four." , Fat had a right to kick because he has lost two games and a watch charm this week. Gleason announced confidently before the game that everything was over so far as tho Sox were concerned. "Get (ready to go back to Cincinnati," he said- "Williams will beat them today because be is too good n pitcher to lose three in n row. The boys aro hitting the ball, have their minds on their work and that's enough for me. Kerr will win the final game tomorrow." Sox Confident There Is a feeling that tho Sox will te this year's champions, but you never ton tell. If they hit today, the ball will travol, .for a high wind is blowing; down the field and high pop flies will be carried quite a distance.

There was friction visible and a disposition on the labor side perhaps unnecessary to display a chip on the left shoulder, but it was ephemeral, and left, I think, no permanent impress. On very high authority I am per mitted to say that the employers' group of the industrial conference intends to throw nil doors wide open. They will lay their cards face upward on the tnblo for the inspection of every player in this gnme in which industrial peace and prosperity aro tho stakes. Particularly will they invite the in spection of the lnbor members to their exhibit, .lust bow soon this may occur is uncertain. The form thnt it will take was under discussion last night nnd this morning. - Up to today the genernl situation could his compared to the political out look in Philadelphia n month prior- to the nomination of Judge Patterson nnd i Congressman Moore. Everything had been in a state ol litis, lincli group hnd been waiting to sec what tho othet groups would do. The hurried convocation Qt this in dustrial conference has not been con ducive to rapidity of action. Its mem bers have barely become acquainted , some not at all. I'pon adjournment yesterday, after a session lasting levs than an hour, the chnirman. Secretary Lane, urged the delegates to get to gether in n social way. In other words, "to mix It up." The idea seemed to catcli, on. Foremost among the mixers was John I). Rockefeller, Jr., who, together with Frederick P. Fish, of Uoston : S. Pem berton Hutchinson, of Philadelphia, nnd Harry A. Wheeler, of Chicago, headed directly for the labor section. Fort a while it seemed like a fraternal re union. Bernard 3L Bnruch innd Thomas Chudbournc, of New York, who has been elected chairman of the genernl committee, both from the people's group, nlso figured in the general sUr about in the company of the laborites.

This enforces n penalty for violation of the agree ment by cither side. It involves also police protection at the mines. To elimiunte the clause, the operators de clare, would bo to open the industry to "unrest nnd radicalism." The mineis nlso want the ngreements to expire each November 1 instead of April 1.
