Monday night. and there is every real
son for expecting one of the most ex-

with. Moran and Murphy are rivals
of virulcnt kind. They have had
three meetings already. SO that their
causes resemble that OF Jimmy Britt

In each of the bouts Moran and
Murphy figured In they finished SO
closely that there was literally moth
ing to choose between them, aud they
have both looked forward to the day
when they should meet in a twenty
round contest in San Francisco.
In addition to being anxious TO de.
eide who is really who. the two light
weights Will battle for the right to
become a championship candidate. II
Is notorious fact that when a new
champion stands forth he is marked
| for challenges from most men in his
class.
The betting on the fight. which
stood at even money for many days,
has changed TO ten TO nine, with
Moran favorite. 1T this the wagering
is compliment TO Murphy, az San
Francisc.ans are chary as Il rule in
placing their money on a man they
have not seen in action.

New York, February 1S.-Baseball
men have lust seen another illustra-
ton of the American Leagues suprem
acy over the National League In the
management Of business affairs. Eight
club owners convened in Chicago 10
adopt tho American League schedule
on Tuesday, and upon the rccommen-
dalton of President Ban johnson the
154-Same plan was accepted unani-
mously. The club owners then renew
ed their partnership agreement for
twenty years. which means that the
present Circuit will remain intact foi
that period, and they also re-electe7

OF time at an annual salary of $50.

president and the club owners hat
a love feast and the:i gracefully re,
tired to the background 40 that thcil
ballplayers and managers might oc.
cupy the centre OF the stage. Thai
has been the American Leagues policy
ever since johnson and Comiskey con-
ceived the idea OF organizing a for
midable circuit to compete with the
National League for public patronage.
In December the National League.
,on the other hand, after a bitter fac
)tional fight, elected Thomas j. Lynch
to the presidency for one yenr at a
salary of $4,000. It was also unani-
mously agreed to adopt a schedule
of tss games With two months to
think 1t over the National League men
came here last Monday, undecided
what course to pursue. Because at
least half the clubs were anxios to
pick up few stray dollars by extend
ing the season to October is, the
league was quickly involved in bit
ter strife regardless of the fact that
the baseball public did not approve
Of O longer playing season.
President Lynch, holding a similar
opinion, was ignored, although he was
clearly the proper person to arbitrate.
AS a result the National League was
placed in an unenviable light. and
baseball men were convinced that 1t
had lost much of Its former prestige.
Tho failure of the league as a body
to compel the Philadelphia club to
live up to legal contract with former
Manager William j. Murray was an
other black eye. Murray was unable
to secure hearing despite the fact
that his claim was generally regarded
as just one. Loyal to organized
baseball, Murray refused to appeal
to the civil courts for a decision, but
he soon found that this course was
/ tho only one left open to him. Murra y
l therefore will be compelled to resort
TO legal proceedings. when the mat.
ter could have been easily adjusted
il the National League club owner
had been willing to be fair.
