PARK JAMMED AS BIG TEAMS STAGE MATCH Speaker’s Men Get Fast Start by Scoring Twice in First Inning. COVFLESKIE ON MOUND By HENRY FARRELL, United Pres* Sport* Editor. LEAGUE PARK. CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. o.—The 1920 world’s baseball series came into its own in Cleveland today. The Ohio metropolis, which had waited forty-two years for a championship baseball club, greeted the diamond gladiators when they appeared for the fourth game of the big series with a burst of enthusiasm that made them forget the frosty three days in Brooklyn. Long before noon the Dieachers around the outfield were packed. The din the fans set up from the time the first whiteclothed Indian appeared gave evidence of a real baseball outburst to come. A midsummer sun beat down on the field, which was lightning fast. The Indians were given a welcome that must have got beneath even their battlescarred hides. That one outburst from the bleachers eclipsed the entire three days' rooting furnished by the Brooklyn fans. - After two or three turns around with the bat the Indians suddenly terminated their early workout and returned to their clubhouse for a final powwow with Chief Speaker. The Indians rrturned to the field at 12:50 o’clock amid another outburst of noise. All of the Indian regulars were pulling the ball toward the short rightfield fence and It was evident they would try to take full hitting advantage of their knowledge of this peculiarity of League Dodgers drew a roar of friendly applause when they filed on the field. They were clad in their gray traveling uniforms. , The Brooklyn bat boy chasing flies in left field was thrown for first down by * charging sqyad of fans who rolled out of the bleachers in pursuit of a sosvefilr ball. One s, 'a took It away from the kid and fled to ae bleachers while the crowe The stunt was repeated every time a foul went to left field, until several policemen went to the lad’s assistance. The fans then turned on Rube Marquard, who was capering about in center field, three faas jumped on his back, got the ball and retreated safely to the bleach 1 e Pfeffer and Mohart pitched to the Brooklyn batsmen when they took their practice. Manager Speaker of the Indians was presented with an enormous floral piece, the gift of the fans of Hubbard City, Texan, his home city. Speaker said that after the game the flowers would be placed on the grave of Ray Chapman, i V* hen the Robins took their places for fielding practice RoMnr-n batted to the infield and Smith and Pfeifer to the outfield. , _ . Manager Robinson announced Cadore as his starting pitcher, while Manager Speaker placed his faith in Stanley Coveleskl?, the southpaw who defeated the Dodgers last Tuesday.

‘PROMS’ WONDER IF THEY LOST A CANDIDATE Resent Effort of Anti-Saloon League Officials to Deliver Party Vote. rrohibltionlsts of Indiana were elated today when they found that the AntlSaioon League branch of the Republican party had not succeeded through the efforts of E. S, Sehuinnker and others in depriving them of * candidate for Senator. i Announcement was being made in the few newspapers of Indiana that are supporting James E. Watson, that Mrs. Cullii Vayhinger had announced her intention of withdrawing as the Prohibition candidate for Senator. There was considerable doubt expressed ss to whether her withdrawal Ht this time was possible, those who doubted being of the nr>nin that a withdrawal must be filed within three trays front the time the certificate of nomination is filed with the secretary of state. The certificate of Mrs. Vayhinger's nomination was filed with the secretary of state last Monday by the Kcv. Charles F. Kroft and E. W. Clarke. QUESTION TIT TO SECRETARY OF STATE.

In this connection Prohibitionist* have, brought to light a stenographic report of a speech made at Gary, June 20, 1008, when Mr. Watson said: “My fellow citizens, I want to be frank. I am not a Prohibitionist. The Republican party is not a Prohibition party.” In spite of this assertion and a long record of opposition to prohibition in the Senate, Mr, Watson is nw being touted by the paid agent* of the AntiSaloon League ns the choice of I'rohibttiouUts for Senator rrom Indiana. Prohibitionists deny that the sentiment in theirs and are frankly asserting that there is every indication that the Republican organ'zatlon bn*uade a deal with certain Anti-Saloon league officers for the support of their candidates this campaign by the terms of which they refuse to be bound.

PACT PRINCIPLE IS GOOD, lIOOVER DECLARES HERE! Tells Columbia Club Crowd ‘Party Responsibility* Is Main Issue. Relegating the League of Nations to I the background Herbert Hoover, in a Re- j publican address at the Columbia Club : this afternoon declared that “the major j Issue today and for the future of our j country is party responsibility.” “The Democratic party has failed in its responsibilities,” the former national ; food administrator and defeated candidate for the Republican presidential nomination declared. “The Republican party has made certain definite promises to the country if it be plac-td in government. “The question at Issue is: Shall the J political parties be made to assume the \ responsibilities for their actions and j promises, both now and In the future ?” j SEES MANY GOOD POINTS IN TREATY. Turning to the covenant of the League i of Nations, he declared: “My personal view Is that some of the articles In the present treaty must be abandoned and some modified, but a great many parts of the present treaty are good *fnd are intertwined with the stability of the world. “I have no doubt our Democratic friends will argue that they are martyrs to adherence to the great principle of the unmodified covenant of the League of Nations. “They are seeking martyrdom on a false premise. “There is but one principle Involved, and that Is the preservation of peace by organized international action. |j “All else merely involves methods of reaching this great object and some of the methods proposed today are regarded by the majority of our people as being dangerous methods. “Compromise on method Is tjie essence of a statesmanship that would plant the foundations of principle solidly upon the rock of public support. “The dispute has not been one of principle. for the Republican party has supported and does support the principle.

"The contention has been over methods and on methods men must divide and good statesmanship will compromise.’' VIEWS ARE SIGNIFICANT SINCE HARDING 'OUTBURST.* Mr. Hoover’s stand in thus arguing that the Republican party is in favor of the principles tipon which the league was formed, but differs from Democratic ideas as to the method of putting them into effect is of notional intererr in view of Mr. Harding’s recent decla; ulon that he has “turned his bach upon tne league" and can not "scrap what has already been scrapped.” Before his address Mr. Hoover and dined to be drawn into a discussion of Sena- ! tor Harding’s unqualified declaration that he opposed the league at Des Moines Thursday. “You will find all that I have to say upon the subject In my address," he (Continued on Page Two.)
