OTTO KNABE MAY
MANAGE PHILLIES

Philadelphia. Pa. Dec. 7.-Charles
Doom has played his last game for the
Philadelphia club in the National
league and in all probability Otto
Knabe will be the next leader of the
team The deal for Knabe to take the
helm Is thought to be under way now
Conferences between Knabe and Hor-
ace Fogel were held this afternoon at
the local offices of Fogel, but both
are reticent and characterize the visit
of Knabe to Fogel as merely friend
1y call.
1t is a known fact that Fogel is Sc
riously considering e1evating Knabe to
the head of the team, and even Doom,
the deposed leader, is strongly in favor
of Knabe as manager and has boosted
him to FogeI between acrimonious
squabb1es.
A deal which contemplates the ex-
change of a Chicago Cub pitcher. prob
