Doubt as to
The RumOr

The Carson News says there is a
cracker factory in Reno, but that no
one knows the name of the institu

misiniormed. Ii there is such fac
tory il the riverside town, no one
knows about it. unless perchance II

that cracker factory was to start in

Appeal has failed to note in any OF

100 tons of this material daily and

Cree, Milan, Bodie, Jackson, Mcintyre
Oldring and Murphy, of the American
and from Wheat, Magee, Paskert, Bes
cher, Mitchell, Schultz, Sheckard, Hof-
man, Clarke, Carey and Ellis of the
National Nine out of ten would pick
from the American because it would
give them Cobb, Speaker and jackson
an incompatible outfield, and Ctaw-
ford, Cree and Hooper for a second
three. Whatever the National league
could produce to surpass the last.
named three would more than be offset
by having the privilege of selecting
Cobb, Speaker and jackson.
In short, If it were condition that
a manager in picking an outfield for a
new league had to take them all from
one league the chances are that he
would unhesitatingly take the Ameri-
can league group, this on account of
the presence of Cobb, Speaker, Jack
son and one or two others.

Detroit Star in Picking Greatest Ball
Tossers Qmits Himself.

Detroit, Mich, Dec. 2z.-According to
Tyrus Cobb's way of thinking, the
twenty best ball tossers in the Ameri-
can league are representatives of all
the clubs but st. Louis, that club COM
ing in for honorable mention, how
ever, in the person Of Bobby wallace.
Equal honors are given the worlds
champions and Detroit, each being
given FIVE men. Chicago and Cleveland
get three each, Washington two and
New York and Boston one each.
OF Wallace, Cobb says: "If he had
had the good fortune to have been a
member of a winning team the last
few years Wallace would now have
been one of the greatest players the
game has ever produced. He Is a
wonderful player, but the low standing
of the team he played on resulted in
dampening the recognition of his real
ability"
Russell Ford of the highlanders and
Wagner of the red sox are also given
honorable mention. Here are the
twenty: Walsh, Chicago; Lord, Chi
cago; Sullivan, Chicago; Donovan. De-
troit; Johnson, washington: Chase,
New York; Lajoie, Cleveland; Milan,
Washington; Speaker, Boston; Bush,
Detroit; Coombs, Philadelphia; Thorn
as, Philadelphia; Baker, Philadelphia;
Barry, Philadelphia; Gregg, Cleveland;

BRESNAHAN GOES
TO COMMISSION

Cincinnati. Dec. 22.--August Herr
mann, chairman Of the National Base
ball commission said that Roger
Bresnahan had filed written charges
with him Tuesday against Charles
Murphy, president of the Chicago
National Baseball club. Mr.. Herr
mann said he had taken no action on
the matter beyond sending copies of
the charges to Ban Johnson and Thos.
]. Lynch, his fellow members on the
commission.
Mr.. Hermann refused to discuss the
charges made by Bresnahan beyond
saying that they were the outcome of
dispute between the st. Louis man
ager and President Murphy at the
recent meeting OF the National
league in New York. According to
Mr.. Hermann, Bresnahan charges
that Murphy threatened at that time
to drive him (Bresnahan) out Of or
ganized baseball, claiming he had
something on him.
Mr.. Hermann said that no definite
action would be taken by the nation
al commission before Jan. 8, when the
commission will meet in this city.

NJ INNES-STOVAL
deal RUMORED

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 22.-Despite
the fact that Manager Mack of the
Athletics, has waived on First Base
man Stovall of Cleveland. 1t became
known here today that Connie would
like to get Stovall, and he is believed
to be endeavoring to engineer a deal
to corral him This change has come
on account OF the fact that disquiet-
ing reports have reached the Athletic
camp over the condition of the arm of
Stuffy" McInnes, the corking little
first baseman who was put out of COM
mission when hit by a pitched ball by
Mullin, of Detroit, late last season.
The bone in McInnes' arm is splint-
cred, and according to reports reaching
here, the surgeons appear to be unable
to do anything with it. Manager Mack
is quoted as saying he does not wish
to let McInnes go if he can help it, but
he cannot be without good first
baseman, since Davis went as manager
of Cleveland.

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
AMERICAN SHADES THE
NATIONAL TN STRENGTH

New York, Dec. 22.-Comparisons
between the two major leagues will
go on until the end of time, or such
time as two major leagues shall exist.
They hardly can be of the same
strength. First one and then the 9TH
er has the edge in all positions For
the most part they are as nearly equal
as two big leagues can be. They have
equal opportunities from which to re-
cruit material
The writer believes that of the best
pitchers in each big league the Amerl-
can at present can show the more pro-
ficient' group. Wood, Ford, johnson,
Walsh, Bender, Coombs and Gregg are
a better seven than the best National
league seven-say Mathewson, Rucker,
Alexander, Adams, Harmon, Cole and
Brown.
The advantage lies with the National
league in backstops, with Meyers, Ar
cher, Doom, Gibson, Bresnahan and
Mclean pitted against Stanage, Thorn
as, Street, Sullivan, Sweeney, Carri-
gan and Lapp, but by the narrow est of
margins. Meyers, Archer and Doom

Bridwell, Doolan, Wagner and Hauser
Aside from Barry and Bush-better
than anybody in the National except
Wagner and Tinker-and Wallace and
Mcbride, and possibly the Boston Wag-
ner, the American leaguers are an or
binary lot.
The best National third basemen are
Herzog, j. Doyle, Mowrey and Byrne
The tiptoppers Of the American league
are but two-Baker and Harry Lord
They are a better two than any Ma
tional league, two, but the National
leaguers all crowd them closely, and
there are more of them
Outfielders of the first magnitude
are more numerous in the American
league. There is no group in the Ma
tional which can equal Cobb, Craw-
ford, Hooper, Cree, Speaker, Milan
and Jackson, not even Magee, Sheck-
ard, Hoffman, Clarke, Schultz, Carey
and Mitchell, as hitting, base hum
ming, ground covering and throwing
collection.
No Doubt About Outfields.
