At the top were the ruins Of an
ancient city of one hundred houses,
built four hundred years ago. The
professor said the architecture OF the

NATIONAL LEAGUE
WAR BREAKS OUT
eRE sNAHAN PREFERS CHARGES
AGAINST MURPHY BEFORE
NATIONAL COMMISSION.

NEW YORK. Dec. 21.--A little FAM
lily row is brewing in the National
League. President Tom Lynch was
informed of the outbreak Of hostili-
ties In letter which no received from
Chairman August Hermann, OF the
National Commission.
Roger Bresnahan. the hustling man
ager Of the st. Louis Cardinals. has
preferred charges against Charles
Webb Murphy. OF the Chicago Cubs.
The former Giant idol demands that
tho National Commission prosecute
the owner OF the Windy City Ma
tional League club. or force him to
make public apology.
Lynch would not discuss the ma.
ture OF Herrmann's communication in
full But he said that Bresnahan
accused Murphy Of insult and libel.
According to Bresnahan. the owned
of the Cubs publicly denounced MIN
declaring that he had something on
Roger, and would drive him out OF
organized baseball. Murphy, It Is
claimed. was incensed because Bres-
nahan refused to waive claims OF First
Baseman Safer. The Chicago magnate
called Bresnahan liar. when the lat
ter said he wanted to use Safer In
ST. Louis. Murphy maintained that
Roger purposed to turn Safer over to
Toronto.
AS chairman OF the triumvirate
Hermann has sent copies of Bresna-
hams complaint to both OF his asso-
ciates. Tom Lynch and Ban Johnson.
Ban Is not likely to consent to let his
ancient enemy, Murphy. off the grili.
1t was Murphy's slur against john
son that prompted the American
League to draw up it's famous resolu-
ton, which for time was consid-
cred in the light of an ultimatum to
Its rival.
Ban has been trying to Gust Muir
INV for three years. In fact he says
that he should have been kicked out
in 1908 for ticket-scalping in the
worlds series eames between the Cubs
and Tigers. With a new hook to hang
1t upon that old scandal may be resur-
rected.
AS the National Commission may
hold its annual meeting in this city
the week after next New York. may
see something lively before the new
year is very old.
