I.—Good weather and a liberal patronage are the most important things needed to make the world's baseball series a big success, wmtffonal commissioners worked out details yesterday. The only change from last vear in j the arrangements for playing the se ries is that two games will be plaved on successive days here and in Bos ton. On Monday. October 12. and Tuesday. October 13, the games will be staged at Fenway Park, the Ameri can League grounds in Boston. After this the teams will alternate each day, playing here Wednesday, October 14, and in Boston on Thursday, October 15. In case of the series going to seven games a coin will be tossed to decide which city shall have the honor »f the linal and deciding game. As in former years, in case of rain or a tie on any day the teams will remain | in the same city to play it off. The same system of distributing tickets for the series as prevailed last year was adopted. Seats will be sold for three games and in case the series | is decided before the third game is played here, as was the case last year, the money for the unplayed games will be refunded. Last year the Athletics had twenty five eligible players, wflo divided $81,098.50 as the winner's share of! the first four games, and New York had twenty-four players, who divided $54,065.67. Each club's share of last | year's series was $59,381.86. The official attendance of the 1913 series was 151,000, three games in New York drawing 109,869 persons and the two games in this city being patronized by 41.131. Shibe Park can accommodate about 2 3.000. while there is room for between 37,000 and 40,000 !, at Fenway Park, according to Presi-j dent Gaffney's statement yesterday. No Changes in Rules No changes were made in the rules l! for playing worlds series games. As! heretofore, four games must be won! by a club to claim the championship. In the event of a seventh game being necessary the toss of a coin after the sixth contest will decide whether the | seventh shall be played in Boston or i Philadelphia, in case of a tie game I or a postponement the clubs will re-1 iHiiiim mw 'iiin iinui'i A llS§yll 11 ■HI M I I 2 for mu "NORMAN" Th« NEWEST SLine Up ET in line with the good dressers.

Kavanaugh, who started his career 1 'with York, had been playing inlleld 1 j for the Tigers. ills work attracted I I world-wide attention. There was dan- j ! ger of "Marty" getting a regular Job j | and some star going to the bench. 1 1 Jennings made Kavanaugh an emer | gency man. Now Manager Jennings j j is seriously considering Kavanaugh's j possibilities as a backstop, and while I it is much too late to do anything this i year the Tigers' leader will work with Kavanaugh in the spring training sea | son of 1915 with a view of developing , him. At the start of the season Jen nings figured that Kavanaugh might ! develop into a star inlielder if he could ! rid himself of the habit of lighting j the ball. "You know," said Hughie. in the early season, "a player is liabie to eliminate that fault in a day. Fight ! ing the ball is displaying a habit and ;it is a habit experience oftentimes breaks. Kavanaugh may acquire the knack of fielding; he may not —that Is something time alone will tell." Evidently time has told Hughie that Marty cannot eradicate his one great fault. "Kavanaugh is a pretty good hitter and if satisfied with his duties should do considerably better than the pres ent percentages show. He is big and he is fast. He seems to ha.ve a good throwing arm and there isn't any question about he willingness to block runners off the base lines." Kavanaugh has had experience as a backstop. He caught half a dozen games for York in the Tri-State League last year and he says he wasn't bothered any in throwing to the bases. main in the city where the game was scheduled to be played until it is de cided.

I Four time he crosse.. the scrubs | line for touchdowns. Each time he carried the ball for long gains from j open formations. Thomas, one of the i leading end candidates, tallied an- I other score when he ran thirty yards I after receiving a pass from Ewing. Welty had recovered sufficiently from ! his injury to resume his place at right I halfback! After a long layoff he dis plaved old-time form in advancing the ball.

I.—Loyal sup porters of the Administration In the Senate and House make no secret of the anxiety that has been caused by the two days' speech of Senator Reed, of Missouri, against the conference report of the Clayton antitrust meas ure. Senator Reed's arraignment was the most vitriolic ever heard in the Sen ate, and his denunciations of the con ference report as ?n apology to the trusts and a betrayal of the Baltimore platform have caused such uneasiness on the Democratic side of the cham ber as to prompt serious talk of re committing the bill to the conferees. A number of Democratic Senators arc threatening to vote to recommit. Says Measure Is Stripped During his speech Senator Hooil showed that the conferees had prac tically stripped the bill of the provis ions which would he most effective against combines and monopolies. As a matter of fact, the conservatives of the Senate have never desired a dras tic hill, and the Democratic conserva tives are going to vote for the con ference report, giving as their reason that to recommit the bill would be a slip at the President, who has given the report his endorsement and might delay legislation contained in the bill. Senator Reed warned his Demo cratic colleagues that the party was playing the hypocrite. He said: "We are playing the hypocrite, sir. came here sounding our symbals, grinding our loins, burnishing our weapons. We said to all the world: •When this great Democratic host shall assemble, when it bears down Upon the citadels of greed, of corrup tion, of plunder, then you will see how valiant arms, backed by honest hearts, will hew a clean path for the common people to tread.'
