Murphy and O'Brfen Hold Secret
Confab With Charles p. Taft
at Cincinnati
Especial Dispatch TO The Call

CINCINNATI, Nov 3o.-Bright and
early this morning, when the Cincinnati
newspapermen came to work, one of
them found Charles w. Murphy in
town. But, stranger still, at the same
hotel and in conference with the afore-
said Charles W., was Joseph OBrien.
president of the American association,
whose home is in Milwaukee. The news
soon spread that Charles w. was here,
and before long he and Joseph OBrien
dropped completely out of sight.
Later they were found at the office
of Charles p. Taft. stepbrother of the
president, the owner of something like
$50, 600 900, and incidentally the man
who put up the coin which brought
Charles w. his place in Chicago and
the Ownership" of the Cubs.
OF course they all deny that any
thing was said about baseball. That is
but natural. Who would have charged
them with il? O'Brien came here from
from Murphy, who was then in Chicago.
He has not any especially good reasons
for coming. he says-merely dropped
around to see the folks But just the
same, they all three had conferences
here today that lasted more than two
hours.

Ward has developed into a bad run

Johnson has spoken of him as he did
here last week. This is held to be
partly responsible for the change from
him to O'Brien.

National baseball commission, Presi-

Be introduced by Both Sides
[Speciol Dispaich 70 The Call

CINCINNATI. O.. Nov 3o.-That the
trial of Mrs Jeanette Ford on the
charge Of receiving stolen money from
C. L Warmer. the defaulting treas
urer OF the Big -Four. will be marked
bs- the reading OF much and volumino nous
correspondence is indicated by the care
with which attorneys on both sides
guard large parcels OF letters written
by Mrs Ford. Warmer and Ed Cooke
Of Chicago.
These letters depict all moods, from
that Of Warmer deep in despair and
desperate, Mrs. Ford aereely demand
, ng the sole possession OF the man she
loved and the husband of another
woman. and the missives OF Cooke TO
Mrs. Ford
Mrs. Ford's attorneys permitted
newspapermen 20 see the Cooke letters
20 her. but they were unable TO take
extracts from them for publication
without violating the postal laws, al
though they tried to get only a short
excerpt OF a half dozen lines from one
ford epistle Of 81 pages.
The earlier letters written by War
riner 10 Cooke show that they worked
in unison to curb Mrs. Ford's demands,
Warriner trying to shield Cooke from
annoyance and the latter at times try
ing 10 keep away from her. Into his
later letters crept a note OF despair.

MEYER TO REORGANIZE
THE NAVY DEPARTMENT
Radical and Sweeping Changes
Prepared by Secretary
Graney Contracts Crouch
[Speeiol Dispateh 10 The Call

WASHINGTON, Nov. Boy in
augurating his comprehensive plan of
reform in the navy department tomor-
row, Secretary Meyer will forestall
probably all attempts at congressional
reformation of the department for the
present.
Legislation is particularly desired in
order TO allow the secretary to name
any officers he may desire as his four
aids. one for operation of the fleet, a
second for material, third for per-
sonnel and fourth for inspection. At
present he is limited to the higher
ranking officers.
Secretary Meyer intends to appoint
younger men to the positions of COM
mandants and captains in the navy
yards. Their tenure of office will be
three years at least, and instead of
making it an easy snap" for officers
who want to round out their careers.
the commandants in the future will be
men who later will go out in command
of ships.
