On the way ! several persons attempted to attack E Manager McGraw, but a policeman I drew a revolver and kept tho crowd , back. One man was arrested for inter-'. inter-'. ; fering with the officer. Umpires Breu-; Breu-; I nan and Eason were taken up another : street by a dozen policemen, and when .; uearing'the station they were assailed ij by a shower of stones and other mis-;! mis-;! sties. The players and the umpires !'J reached the station from different dl-I'll dl-I'll rections about the same time. Police-'c Police-'c men escorting the New Yorkers, see-H see-H ing the attack upon their brother offi-,'' offi-,'' cers, went to their rescue, and the crowd that was following instantly , TU6hcd forward and attacked McGraw; . and hiB men. One of tho players, said :! to have been Shafer, was reported to ; , have been struck by a brick. The crowd also pressed' in on the umpires i . ' and the polico sav Brennan was struck and almost knocked down. Once Jn W side the station players and umpires j were Bafe and they left for Now York shortly after 0 o'clock. j McGraw Complains. I After TvTcCormick, batting for Merkle I1'; in the ninth, had been retired, Man- hi ager McGraw complained to Umpire J Brennan that spectators waving their - ; straw hats in the contor field bleachers 1 i reflected the sun's rays into tho eyes ; of the batsmen. Umpire Brennan ap- , j pealed to Captain Doolan of tho Phil- ;' ! adclphia team to have the spectators moved away from the center flcld sec- $ tion. Doolan consulted Manager Dooln, l who had previously been banished to : J the bonch. Dooin said he could do noth- ing and then the police were called on. I i "None of the crowd, which filled overy $ part of the park, was on tho playing !! field, but it was requested that those i occupying Eeats directly in lino with .'3 ' the pitcher and batsmen move to some j I other place. There was littlo space to "j move to and tho spectators, who had 1 ' been there almoat from the start of the ''5 game, would not budge. :jl After a lone consultation the gamo j was forfeited. Manager Dooin said U that he proposed to Manager McGraw ; A that they play out the game under pro- ''1 test.

J As soon as tho word had boon spoken A the Ifew York -players made a rush I'j acrpas the field to tho club house. As 'Is quick as thoy were, some of the fans ioj were there ahead of them and Bhow- J5 . ered "upon ( them all kinds of names, lu Some missiles were hurled, but no one $j was Tiurt. W Meanvhile tho umpires lost no time ' in seeking cover. They had to pass "g close to the grandstand and before they f were Bafely in their dressing room they , , had been pelted with seat cushions. One cushion struck Umpire Brennan in i the back of the neck. A large detail n of police was called to scatter the V crowd that hung around tho park and k in the grounds. ; Will Protest Game. ' After the game Manager Dooin said rw the game would be protestod. Ho ex-plained ex-plained that tho club was powerless to Temove the spectators, as they had paid i their money niid were entitled to oc- 'i f cupy tho seats. Dooiu also said that the' crowd had boon m the seats from almost the start of the game and that Itjj because of tho very larjje attendance j there was no place for the spectators to move to. Tho game started as a i runaway affair for New York, who 'ij ' scored six runs in the first three in- i ;j ) nings. Alexandor opposed Mathewson in, and the forraur's wildnoss helped the visitors to make a four-run start. Alox-under Alox-under walked the first three men and ; then a singlo by Doylo and a double by I': Mcrklo cleaned np the bases, : In the fourth inning Chalmers ro- jr' lieved Aloxander and he hold the New ;; , Yorkers Bcoreleas for the remainder of i ' ; tho game.
