MASS ASSAULT

UPON MALAGA

Will Attack by Land, Sea and Air

NATIVE TROOPS PLACED

IN VAN OF DRIVE

Gibraltar, Oct. 5.

Intense activity reported in the naval yards of Cadiz is regarded as a prelude to the long-expected land, sea and air attack upon Malaga by the insurgent forces in south Spain.

According to insurgent headquarters at Seville, the assault will be launched either Thursday or Friday.

Leading units of the insurgent fleet are concentrat- ing at Cadiz, where anti-aircraft guns have been mounted on the cruisers Canarias, Republica and Almirante Cervera.

It is estimated that during the past ten days 16,000 troops, including Riffian Sharpshooters, have been landed at Cadiz, Jerez and Algeciras from various Moroccan towns.

In addition to troop movements by sea, Riff fighting men arc being brought over to Spain by air at the rate of 70 an hour.

It is understood that 5,000 Moors, headed by the Riman Sharpshooters, will form the advance guard in a series of attacks on Mafage, while the rear guard will consist of Foreign

GIANTS WIN IN EXTRA INNING

TERRY'S SINGLE GIVES NATIONALS VICTORY

New York, Oct. 5.

A young man named Bill Terry, first basenian for the New York, Giants, won the fifth game of the World Series to-day ngninst the New York Yankees. Terry smashed a long fly into the fence, scoring Moore in the tenth inning, to break a tie which developed in the ninth. Moore deserves a share of credit. He reached third base on his own two-bagger and Bartol's sacrifice.

The scene shifts to-morrow to the Glants' home field, the Polo Grounds, and after their impressive five to four win to-day the Giants can be expected to show fight to the finish. The Yankees outhit the winners, ten to eight, but could not make thern all count. Three errors did nothing to improve the Glapts' showing,

The Giants started with a rush, scoring in the first inning for the first time in the series, and doing a thorough job on five hits. There were three runs on the board when they retired.
