PULLIAM SAYS RACE WAS GREATEST EVER CINCINNATI, O. —The members of the national baseball commission deft at noon yestertlay for Detroit to at tend the opening game of the World's championship series, which begin there this afternoon. No statement further than last night’s official an nouncement of the conditions govern ing the contest was given out, but President Pulliam, in an interview, talked entertainingly of the champion ship race. Ke said: It was the greatest race in the his tory' of baseball. And the best team undoubtedly won. But there was great glory for other lea** besides the winners in the bat tles that were fought right down to the last day. All the honor should go to the Now York team for the gallant fight they made to bring the flag to Gotham. With practically only two depend able pitchers, they fought their way front a lowly position to the leader ship in the rae, holding that place for a long time by a display of game ness and baseball ability that has rarely, if ever, been equaled In base ball. Pittsburg, too, deserves the limit of praise for the fight made by its rep resentative iu the National League. As for the Chieagos, they are a great, game, able team. No team In the league suffered more through ac cidents and illness during the season than the''Cubs. Yet they were never discouraged, but were always fighting among the leaders. So far as the National League race was concerned, it was the greatest, cleanest baseball fighi in the history of our organisation. The matter of the disputed game between the Giants and the Cubs is to be greatly doplored, of course, but it was settled in the only honorable way that could be de vised.

DETROIT, Mich.—-Never has interest been keyed up to aurh a high pitch In baseball history of the city as it is today, which marks the opening of the great world series between the Detroits, champion* of the American league and the Chicago*, champions of the National league. There is more betting on the result ot the series than has over been done befoie. Most of the wagers are placed at oven money. The Cub* cleaned up the Tiger* in easy fashion last season, and they feel confident that they Will be able to repeat in the present se ries However, Manager Jennings and all his band are Jtttft us sure they will not be beaten by the Windy City talent. The Tigers are much fiesher than the Cubs, as (hey have had a rest slijce last Tuesday when the- won the championship ot the Am erican league by defeating the White Sox on their home grounds. The Tigers will have no sxeuse to make this year, as they hail lasi ysar, when they laid Ihe loss of the games to the tact that their catcher* had to play with broken fingers. Both teams are in the finest possible shape for battle. Neither team is handicapped by the absence of any of its stars ott account of accidents. Manager Chance probably will send Ed Reulbaeh to the rubber. This (wirier has not been scored on in the lasi thirty-two timings that he has pitched One of the big slunts that he has done r», t| l( . dia mond this season wa* to pitch a double header against the Dodgers and win both games. In the opinion of Manager Chance, Reulbaeh is one of the biggest stars that baseball has ever known, and he is confident that he will be able to humiliate the Tigers. Ed Killian, a southpaw ot more than average ability, will go to the rubber in all probability for Ihe home talent. He Is better than ev«r before this season, and Manager Jennings is sure tint he will be nble to draw first blood Tor th< locals With these twirling allngera in the box the horde of fans that will throng the baseball park are sur - to see c*e of the finest exhibitions of the diamond sport that it has ever bean ihe pleasure of any fans In the country to aee.
