The Roundup.
A mass meeting. styled by the con-
vention leaders as bull moose
roundup" was held In the auditorium
Of the Washington high school to-
night.
The roundup" was a political love
feast until a motion was made to put
in the field a third state and county
ticket. This subject. which apparent
ly had been purposely avoided today,
came near causing split In the con-
vention. For an hour the delegates
and others who composed the as
semblage, carried on an acrimonious
debate.
Peace was finally restored by = the
convention leaders, wto warned the
delegates that this was no time to al
low dissensiOn to enter into the pro-
ceedings. A motion to table the mo-
ton was carried, and the dove Of
peace once more fluttered over the as
semblage

bled here today in mass convention
and selected 10 delegates with half a

'Resolutions were adopted empower
ing committee OF seven to select
eight presidential electors, indepen.
dent Of those named by the regular
Taft ticket. and declaring no elector

FRANK CHANCE A
REMARKABLE MAN

Frank Chance is one of the most
remarkable men that has ever been
in baseball In 1898 he went to the
Cubs en- the recommendation of Bill
langc, the One-time great outfielder
of the Cubs. now living in retirement
In California. Chance did not even
have minor league reputation and
siMed for $1,000 per year Seven
sd1ls later, when Charles w. Muir
ply secured the backing Of Charles
P Taft, OF Cincinnati, and bought the
Chicago club, Chance was the man
ager He secured a ten per cent. in
terost on the same terms that Muir
ply obtained the controlling interest
in the following year the Cubs won
the National League pennant, but
were Beaten for the worlds cham
pionship by the White Sox The club
that year practically paid for itself.
Chances share of the profits was
within $50 Of the cost of his ten per
cent. interest. Now his wealth is es-
tibated at Sl50.000 This sum repre-
scnts his baseball earnings and divi-
dends and returns from investments
IN California.
When Frank Selee was compelled
10 surrender MS pOSlLlOn as manager
pm account OF III health in the sea-
son Of 1905 Chance was named for
ne position by President James A.
Hart The following year the first
of four National League pennants
was won by the Cubs. The others
we're in 1907. 1903 and 1910. The club
won the worlds pennants in 1907 and
1908 from Detroit and lost in the
final series to the White Sox i'm 1906
and the Philadelphia Athletics in
1910. II was during this period Of
success that Chance was given the
title of Peerless Leader.
Following the season of 1908
Chance and President Murphy had a
quarrel and the manager refused TO
play and offered his stock for sale
A compromise was effected. which
resulted I'm the Peerless Leader sign
ing a four years contract, which ex-
pired this fall
The real cause of the disagreement
last fall between Murphy and Chance
had not been made public. Many rea-
sons have been advanced, but they

CROSS CAN'T
GET In AS THE
TRENTON MANAGER

Monte Cross. who has been men,
toned as a manger to succeed George
W Heckert, of the Trenton ball club,
cannot enter organized baseball in
Trenton. Cross is at present in the bad
graces of the National Baseball Com
mission and until he restores himself
in their good standing he will not be
able to participate in baseball in
Trenton or other cities where the Ma
tional pastime is affiliated with the
National body
Monte Cross, Mike Doolan OF the
Phillies and George Moreland, a
sporting writer of Pittsburgh. last
year owned the Steubenville franchise
in the Ohio and Pennsylvania League.
The team blew up after laundering
on financial rocks and the owners
found themselves in debt to the extent
of $4,000
In order to continue in organized
baseball, Doolan was forced to pay
the debts of the oS6b. The National
Commission ordered that Cross, who
was then scout for the st. Louis
Americans, come across with his
share of the losses, or $4,000
Cross, it is said, failed to fork up
the necessary kale and he was fore
ed out Of his position as a scout for
the Browns. Unless Cross pays the
$4,000, il is hard to see how he can
take the reins of Trenton. This
apparently leaves the field open to
Charles Babb, although several others
are being mentioned as efficient man
ayers

SHOOTERS TALK EARLY l
OF EASTERN HANDICAP

The Eastern Handicap for 1913 will
be shot over the traps Of the DUPONT
Gun Club in this city next summer
The event has already created a great
deal of attention and interest in shoot
ing circles Of the East. as the event
when held I'm this city in 1911, was re-
garded as a record-breaker by all Of
the cracks who attended, not only for
the success of the shoot and the equip
mont of the club. but for the splendid
way in which the shooters were enter
tanned.
1t goes without saying that the club
will not rest upon the laurels won in
1911, but will strive TO make the event
one of the best ever held in the
