GREAT CROWD SEES GAME

P y Associated Press
Fenwav Park. Boston. Mass., Oct.
j 2.—The Athletics, champions of the
American I.eague. twice vanquished
bv the Boston Braves, went to grips
to-dav with the National League win
ners in the third battle of the world s
series. Some 35,000 wildly enthusi
astic spectators saw the Athletics make
i desperate stand on the Bostons' ball
field to stave off a third defeat, which
would all but end their chances of
bearing off the world's championship.
The Bostons, inspired by thousands
..f the home folks that filled Fenway
Park, tried for a third victory with
ihe same keen pursuit of conquest
iliat enabled them to twice topple
over the American Leaguers on their
own bailiwicks.
"We've got the jump on the Ath
letics and they never can get up
enough speed to catch us now, said
Manager Stalling*, of the Bostons.
"The* have never seen Tyler in action
and Rudolph is ready if we need him
to-dav. Bender can't come back so
; cion. and if he does we will beat him
again. There is only the Athletics'
second string artillery to stop us."
"We have not been hitting." said
<'aplain Ira Thomas, of the Athletics,
"and any team looks feeble when it is
not gettinc in solid blows. Wat' h us
to-day. i >ur club is not the one to
take a third straight beating."
Baseball Crazy
Boston was plainly baseball crazed
to-dav. Hundreds swarmed all night
at the gates of Fenway Park. Within
an hour after the unreserved stands
were flung open every seat was taken
and scores lined the back field fences
and pressed against a guard fence
erected around the rear of the outfield.
Once the crowd- broke the wooden
barrier and mounted police had to
drive the people back into the en
closure. A force of carpenters re
paired the fence; All- this was three
hours before game time. When the
crowd was not surging it was cheer
'ng. Outside the fences, unable to
r, admittance, thousands clamored
vainly to get in. The gates were
closed, however, and barred by the
police.
An Indian summer day was fur
nished for the contest. The sun glowed
brightly in a dear sky and the air was
balmy. The playing field was flint dry
and lightning fast.
Retting was 10 to 7 on the Bostons
to take the series. Wagers at these
odds were made at noon.
Bush and Tyler
The Bostons were served in batting
practice by the southpaw C'ottrell and
Cochran, a right-hander. While this
was golnc on Pitcher Rudolph and
Shortstop Maranville talked over the
plays In the series with Rddie Collins,
the Athletics' second baseman. Ru
dolph took part in batting practice
alon« with the left-hander, Tyler.

Preaches Plain Gospel Message at
Annual Rally Day in Fifth

LONG FRIEND OF DR. HART'S
McCormick Talks on "Political Is
sues"; Pinchot Speaks
in the Evening
Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh, not as a
candidate for Governor, but as a sim
ple man of God. yesterday morning
preached the annual rally day sermon
at the Fifth Street Methodist Epis
copal Church, Fifth and Granite
streets
Ills message was to the Sunday
school teacher particularly, but the
plain gospel truths which he ex
pounded went straight home to every
man and woman in the \ast congre
gation.
I He spoke at the request of the Rev.
| 15. H. Hart, pastor, who for more than
| a score of years has been the personal
j friend of the great educator and
! churchman. Dr. Brumbaugh was on
I the faculty of the college at Huntlng
{ don when the Rev. Mr. Hart was pas
i tor of the little charge at that place,
i more than a score of years ago. In
i Introducing the speaker of the morn
| ing Mr. Hart said:
j "! am glad to Introduce the
speaker of tlie morning to you,
for lie will some day be President
| oi die United states. Then you
Mill all Ite glad to say you liavo
| heard him and met him.
"l>r. Brumbaugh," said Mr.
Hurt, "is tlie same old-fashioned,
big-hearted man lie was when lie
preached in my little church at
Huntingdon, and I am sure will
bring you the same simple,
straightforward message that he
always rang In the dajs when we
two were 'boys'."
Teaching the children to study the
Bible and more consistent church and
Sunday school attendance on the part
of adults. T>r. Brumbaugh said, are the
things needed to make religion the
chief directing force in the building
of Pennsylvania citizenship.
Or. Brumbaugh preached a straight
forward message to an audience of
two thousand men and women on the
Hospel of Works. Never for an in
stant was there the least utterance of
a political nature, but he told a story
to the generous-hearted railroad folk,
who make up t'r.e congregation of the
Fifth Street Church, which showed his
stand on the liquor question better
than anything he ever has said or
could say in a political speech.

OsLend for London.
12 FAGES. * POSTSCRIPT
Desperate Fighting Is
in Progress All Along
Battle Line in France
Heaviest Encounters Are Now Going on Between Lassigny
and Lens; Official Statements Are Brief Concerning
Fighting in Both East and West; Bombs Dropped on
Paris; Cathedral at Antwerp Reported Only Slightly
Damaged
The official war news is brief hut official statements are not
needed to make plain that momentous results hang on the fortunes of
the desperate battles now being waged at vital points on the line
tliat stretches from Switzerland through northern France to within
twenty-five miles of the straits of Dover.
1 lie heaviest fighting is on the line of Lassigny and Lens. This
afternoon's official report from Paris says that the allies repulsed
German attacks between Arras and the Oise and that cavalry en
gagements continue in the region of La Bassee, Estaires and Hase
brouck
Special attention is directed to Ostend. There have assembled
the greater part of the Belgian army and about two thirds of the
British forces that escaped from Antwerp. It is believed that Ger
many is pushing forward to attack the city with tlie hope of captur
ing and using the port in her operations against England.
A bitter struggle to keep the Germans from the coast is in
evitably. To-day's reports indicate that the German cavalry advance
is less than thirty miless distant from Ostend.
STRENGTH OF ALLIES NOT KNOWN
The strength of the allies at Ostend is not known. It is pos
sible that British reinforcements which were unable to reach Ant
verp in time to help in the defense of that city arc now in Ostend.
Still loss i". known of the situation in the eastern theater of war
Petrograd is silent on recent developments. The Russian war
office explains this silence on the grounds of strategy Vienna claims
that the Russian attack on Przemysl, the strong fortress in Austrian
Galicia. lias failed. Berlin asserts that the Russian advance on the
East Prussian frontier has been checked while the Germans are
steadily working eastward in Russian Poland.
Neutral sources report that cholera is spreading in Austria.
German airmen dropped two bombs in Paris this morning. The
missiles struck in the yards of the Northern railway station but
failed to explode.
Taking of Antwerp
Resulted in Loss of
Thousands of Germans
Rotterdam, via London, Oct. 12,
4.48 A. M.—A correspondent of the
Tidj describing the scenes at Antwerp
saps: "When the outer forts were si
lenced, the Belgians, their beads
swathed In bandages and their clothes
smeared with mud withdraw to the
inner line. Two commandants blew
up their forts and spiked their guns.
"Tho Germans succeeded in forcing
a breach iu the inner girdle of forts
sooner than was expected. Belgian
mines of the inner and outer forts cost
the Germans thousands of lives, but
General VonHeseler, the German com
mander, apparently had been ordered
to take the city at all costs with a view
of safeguarding the German army in
the north of France.
"The siege of Liege was as nothing
in comparison to the last two nights
of the bombardment of Antwerp which
was the most terrible of the war.
While tho bombardment was at its
height the prisoners began to batter
at the doors of their cells because
bombs had pierced the roofs of the
prison. They howled like mad men
until released and then rushed through
the street plundering houses."
Paris Making Plans to
Prevent Airship Raids
Paris, Oct. 12, !».40 a. m.—The prog
ress of the campaign in the North of
France and the fall of Antwerp were
forgotten for a moment to-da.v by tho
people of Paris who spent their time
discussing the throwing of bombs on
the capital from German aeroplanes
as a result of which three persons were
killed yesterday and 14 wounded. At
the same time officials adopted meas
ures looking to the prevention of simi
lar acts in tho future.
The first thing done was the ap
pointment of General ilirschauer to
take charge of the aerial defense of
the city. General Ilirschauer is an
aeronautic expert. He organized last
year the aerial branch of the army
service. Later a number of deputies
met at the call of the Deputy t>enys
Cochin to consider various means of
j rendering the city more secure from
iaeroplane attacks.
I The creation of aerial squadrons
stationed at cardinal points to bo al
ways ready to dash after the aircraft
of the enemy as soon as they shall be
seen approaching the city; the arming
of fast monoplanes with quick firing
guns and the telephoning of warnings
by residents of the capital to the
French Aero Club which is now under
military control, were among the sug
gestions discussed.
AGREE TO RAM ZEPPELINS
London, Oct. 12. Walter Rundman,
president of the Board of Trade, at a
patriotic meeting In Kingsway Hall,
! here Saturday night, said: "If Zep
pelins raid London all the members of
I the British flying corps have pledged
j themselves to dash their machines
right through the German airships, even
■if both are brought to earth. On
'one passing through London," continued
l the speaker, "ean see that we expect
I a visit by German aircraft."

King's Death Likely to
Remove Obstacle Which
Has Menaced Russia
By Associated Press
Petrograd. Oct. 12, via X.ondon,
1.05 a. ni.—An official statement given
out to-day expresses the belief that
the death Saturday of King Charles
of Rumania removes an obstacle to
the turning of Rumania to the cause
of the allies, to which end recent Rus
sian diplomatic efforts were unavail
able. It is said further that the sym
pathies of the Rumanian people, who
in the past have shown that they
weer opposed to the championing of
Prussia by the late King, will not as
sert themselves.
Consequently, according to Russian
authorities, Rumania will cease to
menace Russia by furnishing provis
ions and transporting troops for Ger
many.
Russians Driven From
Przemyal, Austrian Claim
By Associated Press
London, Oct. 12, 10.55 A. M.—A dis
patch from Amsterdam to Reuter's
Telegram Company says:
"A telegram from Vienna says it is
officially announced that the Austrian
advance has relieved Przemysl, Gala
da, of the Russians. The Austrians
have entered the fortress at all points
and where the Russians attempted re
sistance they were beaten. The Rus
sians fled iu the direction of the river
San, attempting to cross at Sinlava
and Lnajnk where a great number
were captured."
