Chicago, Oct, 21.--The triumphant Philadelphia Athletics pounded three Chicago pitchers for twelve runs and fourteen hits in yesterday's game for the world's championship, and won easily. Reulbach lasted only three innings, and got such a swatting for eight runs that he was replaced by the side-arm spit-ball thrower, but all looked alike to the Philadelphias who walloped the spit fellow for four rung in the seventh. Chicago put a third pitcher, Plesiter, formerly of Toronto, in the box, and he held the Athletics from doing further damage. Ka od three runs in the first two innings, Then the Athletics rapped the ball for five in the third. Athletics {Manager Chance, of the Chicagos, was put out of the game in this innings for disputing a home run decision, Murphy belted the ball to the bleach: ers, and three runs came in on his drive. Archer, the Toronto player, took Chance's place at first base, The Athletics made the Cubs look like a cheap lot; as they outplayed the home team in every department. The Chicago crowd was disgusted with their team, and started finally to rout for the visitors. Coombs pitched twice for Philadelphia in three days, and was hit safely only seviy times, The longest hit of the day was made by Ravis, the Athletics' captain, in the eighth. There were some sensa- tional plays by the Athletics, includ- ing a double in the third. The Official attendance was 26,200, The game was played in weather like' the gathering twilight, as y fine driz zing rain fell early in the afiernoon, but not enough to prevent the game from procedlfling.

Mr. McKenng considered that in first-class battleships, Britain had more than maintained the two- power standard, while in cruisers her superiority was still more marked.

The baat was in charge of Capt. Peter Ely, who, with a crew of thirteen, got off safely. Mr. Hall, of the Ottawa Forwarding company, has gone to the scene of the accident. It will likely cost gon=} siderable to have the steamer raised and repaired, but 2s it is nearing the close of navigation, the company not suffer such a great loss by having the boat out of commission as would otherwise be the case.

Mr. Hanna is no longer a sak man to have charge of important af fwirs of the party. His mistake is re garded as unforgivable. His attitud: towards members of the cabinet i other affairs has been displeasing them, and little sympathy is felt i some quarters.
