CLARKE FOUR TIME WINNER
pittsburg Leader Holds the Record
Among Managers for Baseball Pen
nant Victories.

Pittsburg, which clinched the hon.
ors as champion of the National
league for 1909, also won the pen
nant in 1901, 1902 and 1903, giving
Manager Clarke the distinction of be-
ing the only manager in the National
league with a record of four pennants.
Only three other managers of major
league clubs ever surpassed this rec
ord. They were Arson, Selee and
Hanlon, whose teams won the pen
nants five times.
Five players hold the record of be-
ing members of a club that won the
pennant four times. They are Man
ager Clarke, Shortstop Wagner, Gen.
ter Fielder Leach and Pitchers Lee
yer snd Philippe.
Pittsburg is the best hitting team in
either major league, having 1882 bin
giles to their credit, including 204
doubles, SO triples and "a home runs,
and is second in fielding, Chicago be-
ing first.
The Pittsburg team is strong in
having the second division of its line
up the hardest-hitting aggregation of
any second division in any major
league club. These men are Miller,
Abstein, Wilson and Gibson.
Another interesting feature is that
O'Connor was catching for the team
when the pennant was clinched and
the only other game he caught this
year was on May 5, when his three
hits helped Pittsburg defeat Chicago,
thus placing Pittsburg in the lead in
the race. Catcher George Gibson has
caught 100 consecutive games.

FINE CUB PRESIDENT $500
National Commission Taxes Murphy
Heavily for Attempt to Lure
Toronto Player.

In meeting marked by some sharp
criticism of President c. w. Murphy
of the Chicago National league club,
the national baseball commission at
Cincinnati imposed a fine of $500
against the club. The action was
taken upon a protest filed by the
Toronto club of the Eastern league,
and was based upon an alleged at
tempt of President Murphy to lure
Pitcher Frank Pfeffer from the Toron-
to club. The fine is to be applied as
damages in favor of the Toronto
club.
The following self-explanatory find
ing was issued by the commission:
1.-The attention of the commission
was called to this case by James J..
Mccartney, president of the Toronto
Baseball club. He contends that Pres
ident Murphy of the Chicago National
league club sent telegram to one of
his players on September as fol-
lows:
ITO Frank Pfeffer, Care Toronto
Baseball Club, Toronto: If possible
for you to get away, l would like to
have you help during the rest of the
season.

Along about March 81 each year
Hans Wagner, the great Pittsburg
shortstop, who leads the National
league in batting, gets letter that
reads something like this:
Dear Hans: Enclosed is a contract
for the coming baseball season. 1t is
all blank, as you will see. Fill it out
to suit yourself, Hans; but in fixing
your salary please remember that
times are very bad Still, we must
have you and will pay whatever you
say"
Hans gets this letter while he is at
the office of the Independent steel
plant that he and his brother own.
He studies the statistics and finds
that 366,427 persons paid to see the
games at Pittsburg last year. Then
back goes this letter to Barney Drey-
sus:
''Mien Lieber Barney: Yours chust
received. Times was pretty hard

here, too. l hardly ever saw der rail
markets so bad. But maybe l get
away this summer for a little while
if you pay me $4,000. l hate to say
this, but what can l do?"
This is a fact-Hans fixes his sal
airy, and expert opinion is that it is
$4,000 month for six months.
And here's the point: There are
lot of Hans Wagners. big and little, in
thebaseball business, and any under
taking that can pay such salaries may
be regarded as having reached that
dignity which entities it to be called
an industry.
Most of the baseball fans may not
know that there is such a thing as
the baseball industry of the United
States, but there is. Nor can it be de-
scribed without the use of big figures.
1t is great in income, great in expend-
iture, great in the number of men en-
ployed and still greater in the number
of patrons.
