N. Y. Phil. ISERIES N. Y., 1; PHILADELPHIA, 2. NEW YORK, Oct. 9 Demonstrating superiority in every department of the game, the Athletics today fiercely avenged their shut out of yesterday by defeating the Giants on their home grounds 8 to 2. Marquard, who started the game for New York, was taken out of the box in the seventh and Crandall was sent in to finish a game that was already 3ost. The Aahletios far outhitjbeir opponents and Bush the Athletic's pitcher had the Indian sign on the Giant batters all the way. Schang added the last straw to the camel's already well night broken back in the eighth when he hit into the grand stand for a home run. Philadelphia went after the third game of the series in the very first inning, Oldring, Baker and Collins getting a single apiece In rapid succession. Oldring scored and then Collins and Baker pulled off a double steal and scored a moment later on Fletcher's wild return of a liner hit by Strunk. The Athletics added two more in the second, giving them a lead of five runs. With two men out, Murphy beat out a scratch hit. Oldring singled nnd both scored on a single by Collins. New York scored in the fifth inning when Murray was given a free pass, stole second and went to third on a bad throw, scoring on a single by McLean. Cooper, running for McLean, stole second and went to third where he stuck until Herzog made the third out. McLean having been given a runner was now out of the game, McGraw sending in Wilson to catch the remaining innings. The Athletics added two runs in the seventh and the Giants came back with one more run, Shafer doubling and scoring on a hit by Murray. Tesreau was. taken out in the seventh after Collins had tripled and Baker hit for a single. Crandall for the second time was sent in to finish a game in he series. POLO GROUNDS, NEW YORK CITY, Oct. 9. Twelve persons were hurt at noon today in a riot at the Polo Grounds shortly after the gates were opened for the third game of the world's series. A mob of delirious fans made a rush for the turnstiles, brushing aside the hundreds of police who were on duty. O. E. Levy, of Brooklyn sustained serious injuries. ' The riot was caused by the announcement that all the $2 seats had been sold but that 900 of the $1 seats could be secured at the other gates. A wild rush was made when the news was given out and the police were swept ' off their feet. It took nearly half an hour for the police to restore order. Several persons were clubbed before the line was reformed. "Rube" Marquard was the first player to arrive. He was accompanied by his wife. They were given an ovation. Marquard said he would pitch tomorrow in Philadelphia. Ten thousand men, women and boys gave a great shout of joy at 11 o'clock today when the gates were thrown open and the rush to see the third game of the world's series was on. Many times during the morning the crowds had threatened to overthrow the police guards and the mob was becoming almost uncontrolable when the umpires arrived and inspected the lteld They found a pool of water near first base and conditions in the outfield were bad as a result of the rain during the night, but after a conference they decided to report to the National Commission that the field could be used Old Sol gladdened the hearts of about 35,000 fans by being among those present whea the Athletics and Giants grappled this afternoon. It was the first time that sun had shone on the 1913 battles, poking its face through the heavy clouds for a few minutes at a time, then hiding itself for a somewhat longer period. Matty received a tremendous ovation, and the band blared out "Hail to the Chief." Over 6.000 fans failed to get Into the grounds, the tickets being exhausted. Line-up and Batting Order.

173 RECEIVE DIPLOMAS

Cheers Greet Announcement That Richmond Association Gets Second Place. Last night was boys' night at the Y. M. C. A. Three hundred youths gathered about the long tables in the gymnasium at the banquet which marked the close of one year of Bible study and the beginning of another year's work. Cheers and stamping of feet greeted the announcement of the year's work made by Superintendent J. T. Giles who said that tha. Boys' department of the Richmond association had been awarded second place on the three honor rolls of Bible study by the International committee. The only city In the United States having higher position than the local association is Brookville, Pa. Diplomas Presented. Diplomas were presented to 173 boys, who had successfully passed the I Bible study examinations last spring. Honor system medals of gold silver and bronze were received by Claren.c Porter, Logan Keekr sjd Fred .Van Allen, with points follows: 825, 815, 762, respectively.',' J?V)r the Iroquois basketball team, ClArenee Porter, captain, received thm iflTei 'loving cup. Monograms were presented to the members of the winning - team, and i boys who had taken gymnasium or aquatic records during the year. Laud Pettljohn. The speakers were unanimous in lauding Boys' SecreUJX-EWiUohii for the manner In which he has been con.-, ducting the Bible Study and for the spirit of cooperation and loyalty to the association with which he has inspired the boys. "Seriousness and soberness are two factors which should enter intoJthe daily life of every boy," said -C5 Boggs, who acted as toastmaster. "In view of the many opportunities which the boy of today has over those of the boy who lived a quarter of a century ago. he is apt to take them lightly. Each boy should have some particular duties to perform everyday. He should pick out something worth while to do, and do it. While it was true 'all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,' it is equally true that 'all play and no work makes "hiar a nuisance.' " To assume a true, noble, square attitude toward his school, and his Y. M. C. A. and try to do good things was (Continued on Page Three.) TAG DAY TO ASSIST MEMORIALJOSPITAL Financial Assistance Is Needed to Relieve Crowded Condition. Saturday is Reid Memorial Tag day. Eighty women, members of Reid Memorial Aid Society, will be stationed in business houses, on street crossings, side streets and other public places ready to ask all passersby to donate for the purchase of additional equipment for the big hospital. Hospital Tag day is an annual event in Richmond. These same women each year appear on the street soliciting money to be used in the improvement of the facilities of this well known institution. In former years, residents of the Quaker City have responded liberally to the call for assistance, $600 being given last year to place the hospital in better condition to care for those who might be compelled to call upon it for care. Never before however, has financial assistance been so urgently needed as as the present time. Owing to the prvalence of typhoid in the city, the hospital is crowded with patients and many are being turned away. Many persons who would be taken to the hospital in ordinary times are now being acred for in private homes owing to the demands that are being made upon the institution. Hospital Too Small. This is not all. There are seven persons who are in need of surgical attention. These cases are too serious to permit of an operation at the home of the patients and so the sufferers must wait until there is room for them at the hospital. The present typhoid epidemic has proved that the hospital is too small for the city. The institution is tared to its utmost capacity. In case of a wreck or bad fire, the homes of the city would have to be opened up to care for the injured. r Thirty boxes will be placed in outlying stores to afford opportunity of making donations. "What do we need most?" responded Miss Marsh superintendent of the hos(Coatinue on Last PageJ

Weeks Affo. t J. M. Cop. one of Richmond's piv neer and host known citizens, was found dead iti his bed this morning by his daughter, Mrs. J. Frtd King, with whom he madt his home at 130$ Main street. Valvular heart trouble was the cause of his dath. It is belicvod he died abftut 5 o'clock this morning. The body was found about two hours later when Mrs. Ktng went to his room to awake him. Mr. Coo was 69 years old and had been in excellent health until a few months ago. Mr. Coe was proprietor of the J. M. Coe Printing establishment, but before engaging in that business was a newspaper publisher. About three weeks ago his physician informed him that he had valvular heart trouble and warned him against exerting himself. Last evening Mr. Coe walked to his physician's office and after consulting with him. went to his business office where he worked a short time. Before leaving he informed his son. Demas S. Coe, who has been associated with him in business for the last three years, that he was not feeling very well but would be at work early as he had much business to attend to. Old Printer. ' Mr. Coe was a successful man, having been engaged business in the newspaper and job printing business in this city for over forty-three years and always took a keen interest in public affairs. At one time he was a member of the city council and for sev eral years had been president ot the had an engaging personality and was witty, well informed and a most en tertaining conversationalist. In politics he was Identified with the Republican party. He was a member of St. Paul's Episcopal church. J. M. Coe was born at Lichtfleld. Conn., February 21, 1844. As a boy he became an apprentice printer and before he was 21 years old he began to follow his trade in the composing room of the Springfield.

NO DATA ON BUDGETS

Important Work Is Done Without Any Detailed Information. Article 2 City Government. Not once this year has a full attendance been recorded at the mayor's . monthly cabinet meetings, required by state law so that the mayor and the heads of the various city departments can confer on city affairs and bring these departments Into closer co-operation. These cabinet meetings could surpass all other agencies for the promotion of good government if there wn the desire to take advantage of the benefits they offer. But the cabinet meetings held under the present administration hare degenerated into mere farcial formalities. In fact city officials refer to the cabinet record book as the "book of farces." Mayor Zimmerman seeks no counsel from his subordinates and resents advice on their part, so It can be readily comprehended why cabinet meetings are city hall jokes. Written Reports Lacking. Under the order of the mayor. Issued two years ago. the heads of all departments were required to submit written reports at such meetings, giving detailed information on departmental affairs. Had the mayor enforced this order he could have been supplied with accurate data, giving him Intelligent and comprehensive knowledge of the general affairs 'of the munici pality. It would have been especially important for Mayor Zimmerman to hv had f"c,h information because his other activities keep him away from his desk at the city hall so much of -the time. But the order has not been enfore- , ed, as is graphically shown by the following record of cabinet meetings this year: January Meeting Ten of tho fourteen members presenut. Written re ports by superintendent of crematory and parks. February Meeting Eleven present. Written reports by superintendents of crematory and of parks, health officer and meat Inspector. March Meeting Eight present Written reports by the superintendents ot , crematory and of parks. April Meeting Six present. Written reports by superintendents of crematory and of parks.
