It's all over. The world's champions, who today must relinquish that 'title, earned the prouder title of champions of Chlcaeo yesterday by winning the
fifth and final game of the local serios from the White Sox, 1 to 0. The White Sox, admittedly Inferior and weakened, surrendered with all honor, and marched off the field with all the honors of war, being allowed to retain their uniforms, their bats and the title of champions of the South Side, while Chance's crew celebrated a victory. And while celebrating their victory the world's champions (so called for the last time unless rain falls at Detroit today) bowed to a gallant foe, and admitted the Sox better than they thought. James Sheckard won the game for the Cubs, and by winning he proved the adage that the unexpected always happens In baseball. In the third Inning, with two out, Sheckard faced Doc White and runners were within striking distance of the plate. In ten games against the South SIders in which he had taken part Sheckard never made a hit, and the first time up yesterday he had struck out. swinging wildly at White's teasing slow curves and slants.
Besides that. Sheckard Is not a good hitter against left-handed pitchers, and with the result depending upon him Sheckard faced White. Two strikes made him look foolish, and then, chopping hard at a fast side-arm ball, he

banged the ball like a flash past third. ' Purtell, subbing at the base, dived cross. Parent leaped ten feet toward third, but the ball had penertated the
vital spot, it flashed through to left fild one run scored, and before the kaliedoscoplc movement on the field ceased the Cubs had grabbed the lead. No more runs scored, but Brown, pitching one of the grandest games of . his career, held the Sox to one safe hit j and, blanking them, earned his victory and regained for the west side team the title of champions of Chicago. j Four victories out of five games gave the Cubs full measure of revenge upon j the White Sox for the beating they gave the Cubs three years ago and
the Cubs were satisfied to win, although every game was ciose and all hard-fought. So the series ended with the teams respecting each other more than ever before. Brown was the hero yesterday. By one of the greatest exhibitions of pitching even he ever gave, he held the White Sox to one lone hit. That one hit, a drive by Parent made after two strikes were called on him, and after two were out in the fifth Inning, proDably never would have been a hit on warm day. The ball shot to the right of Brown, who, under ordinary circumstances would have blocked it down, but fearing to hurt his hands, he made no effort, allowed the ball to go on, Just out of Tinker's reach and ruined his perfect record.
cess in getting Ketchel's $5,000 side bet at even money. This wager, which bid fair to break up the bout yesterday due to Ketchel's insisting that he receive the prevailing odds of 10 to 4, is to stand. That was decided yesterday at a conference between Promoter Coffroth and the two boxers. In order to cilnch matters the stakeholders turned over the money to Coffroth hlmseir. "It would take nearly $15,000 now to get the same sum that we'll get for $5,000." said Little complacently, referring to the fact that he had carried his point and secured even money.
Coffroth, who has been under a great
nervous strain lately, due to the lm-
. mense amount of details to be seen to
1 In connection with the bout, was great- ; ly relieved over the fact that Britt fin
ally agreed to let the money stand as
a side bet.
"It wasn't Johnson's fault that Britt
offered a $5,000 side bet at even money
months ago in order to get a bout," he said, "and I don't see why he kicked
at this stage."
So numerous were callers at the two
camps that It finally became necessary

plate. Crawford, who had come In on the grass for Gibson's fiq, admitted today that he had no chance to get Gibson and that It was the hlpplest moment of his life when he saw Absteln going for the plate. It Is more than possible that this bit of play lost the championship for Pittsburg, for had Absteln held third bases would have been filled with no one out.
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 18. On the ee of the final game which must decided the world's championship in baseball the Detroit Tigers are found filled with confidence. The Pittsburg Pirates are confident, too, but are not so loud about It. Yesterday afternoon for perhaps the first time during the series the betting contingent from the Smoky City demanded odds. The betting today Is 10 to 8 on Detroit to win the deciding game this afternoon and the championship. T'lttrnViiirc rnntrs declare and Detroit
rooters admit that base running thel
like of which a
supposed to present would have wonj
the world's championship for Pittsburg in the ninth inningr Thursday. Detroit evening papers are filled with rumors that First Baseman Absteln will never don another Pittsburg uniform after
today's game because of his attempt to score from third in the ninth inning when there was no one out, and another runner on first with MulIIn plainly in distress. While the Pittsburg club officials are saying nothing, it is common talk that Absteln disobeyed orders in dashing for the plate, that he had been told to hold the base, as a long fly even would score him with the tying run, but In
stead he dashed into a sure out at the
