Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 40, Number 102, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 September 1908 — Cubs Defeat the Giants. [ARTICLE]

Cubs Defeat the Giants.

The Chicago Cubs succeeded in defeating the New York Giants in all three games Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, and the result was that about all the people in Chicago were baseball crazy. The three victories did not quite put Chicago at the top of the National League, but it was a great encouragement and caused the fans there to believe that they will win. The three games had a total attendance of about 70,000.
