M.-Beth. NEW YORK, Sept n -The world’s scries of 1912 is one .likely lo he remembered aS long IS the game - li-iu.- s. Not only will it bring together, in the respective major league champions, an unusually well matched pair of <-ont< -ignis, but it will also fur nish a stake of such gigantic pro portions as to bring out the very last ounce of tight. A month is left of tbe major league schedule. Much may hap pen in that time. In neither league, so far has the pennant been won to an absolute cert&iiity’. Yet th< Nev Yoik Giants ami the Boston Red Sox appear to have such stran-' gle holds on the laurels that, for the sake of argument, we’ll elimi nate the rest of the field?. Unless some miracle hapr ns. the big an nua! pow-wow of the elans will bo staged jointly in this city and in tlie < 'ity of ('ulture. For evert’ one at all concernerl in the national pastime, a better po.st-S'-ason attraction could not be arranged. In the matter of pure ability, it is doubtful if two better matched riv-iis ever faced e ieb oili er. These prospective challengers for a world's title represent the two greatest hao-ball ci-ties of the country. New York will undoubt edly be the popular favorite over Boston -at least, in lhe speculative Heids. Pittsburg money is bound to have such an infiuem >. It is always a simple question of Na tional league sentiment against that of phe Ameri'-an b ague, and Pitts burg nr.: ' invariably backs its’ sympathy for the old major organi zation.

To my mind, they hay. proved as much by gt.ilng through th.-' whole season without one s,-- rmus slump. 1 think that in a long race lik-- a season’s eliampi,,| l . ship of 154 gaim s the Giants would suffer greatly by comparison. But a v orld's championship series and a 154-game series are different prop ositions. Batteries Will Count Most. Usually—other things being at ad . quel—this -holt dash puis . right up to tin batteries. Mon than ev. r will battery strength fig lire in this f ill's big series. Outside these points the teams shape up as of about equal strength. The Red Sox lay it all over the Giants in the matter of outfield strength. Boston boasts the greatest garden trio of the game. But New York fully equalizes tjiis in the infield. McGraw has an exceptionally classy bluer defense; Boston's first line is not bi illiant. Larry Gardner, at third, is the best of the lot, and there arc thri - or more third btiscmen in his own company that are ranked higlu-r than the Boston man. But the in lield foui of the Speed Boys cover a multitude of sins by heavy slick work. .Every one of them is .1 sluggei. Heine Wagner is almost as much of a terror as his illus tii. :s namesake of the Pi.at - Jake Stahl is a fence buster. In defensive speed and skill New York undoubtedly lays it over Boston’s infi-. id. However, Hu- Hub's supe rior hitting power and tlie outfield advantages make it just about a toss-up. 1 speak now of tlie short scries. It’s i>i-ptty nearly a question of | pitching, then.
