chicago, Jan. 2I--(Special. )-Pres- ident Murphy of the cubs wali vote for James A. Hart for President of the National League if Harry Pulliam car- ries out his threat to resign. Murphy said yesterday he thought all eight club owners in the league wohld ask MT. Hart to take the ofiice if 1t be- comes necessary to elect a new man.
 It is the opinion of President Murphy that Pulliam will not resign. The owner of the champs says the trouble over the blacklist resolution, which has set Pulliain to warning with the minor league body on one side and with Garry Herman on the other, will bc settled before time to resign comes.
 While haven't given Pulliam's row much thought" said MT. Murphy. T take it for granted he is right sn the matter. He is a very sensitive fellow and probably the scrap has got on his nerves. However, I see no sense in re- signing. Supposing he is right and the issue goes against him, that is no reason why he must quit his post as president of the league. Right ought to win all the time, of course, but if 1t should be slow in gaining the upper sufficient excuse for Pulliam's resigna- tion.
 Hart Good Man for Job.
 "It would be too bad for a man of Pulliam's standing to quit baseball. He has the confidence of all the right thinking public, and is known to be a square sportsman. In case Pulliam does resign 1t would be great stroke of good fortune to land Jim Hart for the office. guess he has had as much experience in baseball as any man in our league. and, if he would take the ofice, would make a great executive. .''
