MURPHY OF CUBS
 HAD HIRED SPY
CHICAGO OWNER PAID MAN TO LEARN WHAT MEMBERS OF TEAM SAID IN CLUB
 HOUSE.

Al spy, one of the players, hired by
 Murphy to watch the Chicago Cubs and tell the club owner what the play
 CTS said about him is what caused all this trouble in the Cub camp. accord ing to Webb Drum, writing in the Chi
 form ation direct from one of the Cub
 players. There is no intimation to
 who was the spy, but Drum quotes his informant as saying all the team knew
 The player was bitter in his denun- c1attOn Of Murphy for what he termed a sneaking trick" and said the West Side owner got just what was coming to him for having stopped so low as to hire a man for the purpose. Here's the story in the players own words. as re-
 s.We players have knownsfor two or three months that Murphy had an in former among us, and we have a pref- been his duty to listen to all conver- satfons he cou1d possibly overhear among the players, and every time was reported at the Cub headquarters
 Right here is where Murphy made the most foolish move of his life. He ths nnsT tea 1nat who Iners SaS ay sa % sor hi personally, but he has the curiosity of a scanda1nonger and would not be wanted to know just what each player said and when he said it. He knew very well why the things were said
 Why, do you know, that if Murphy refary williams or Groundkeeper Kuhn he'd run up as soon as the player had left and say: What were you talking of the personality Of the man. He just couldn't keep his nose out of 1t; hel wasn't satisfied that the team was him. but he had to sneak his hireling in there to satisfy his own personal eu- riosfty, and break up the winning com a nlnat1on; 1e naz th;s wrsengd 1 the 5saan s self, and he will suffer for 1t, you can bet on that.
 This informer. who is, of course, as small as the man who hired him, Is nothing but a fool. It's cinch. the players have no use for him noU, and Murphy certainly won't have use for ,an't respect the man who win stoop ! so low, and when he gets through with | lim he'll give him a polite kick out into
 Nobody ever accused Murphy of be- l ng popular with his players, and mo- 1ody knew of his unpopularity better I han Murphy himself, but he couldn't 1 keep out of it. When he began learn I ng of these things he got Into rows with the players about them, and this l saused internal strife. The players got yressed until he had them at a stagel where it is a. wonder they could play ,a1l at a1I
 How do you suppose Murphy found ,ut what Ward Miller and Ed Reul- ,ach said in the city series that made i'm tack a fine to them? He may have leard it himself, but think he got it rom his infornner. Pretty small bus ness for a man in charge of 8 S, ,0o0,- co enterprise: don't you think?

 Waller, De Witt, H. Baker and Pen dleton took turns carrying the oval and had the scrub line guessing. Wal Ter finally broke thrc ugh the line for q ten-yard gain and made tho score. Hobey Baker kicked the goal.
 The other varsity scores were due to H, Bakers kicking. Twice he boot ed the ball over the bar on place znent kicks, both at a distance of about thirty yards Consistent work by Bafx- er in placement and drop kicks has been the feature Of this weeks prac- tAoe
