HUGH BRADLEY GOES
TO JERSEY CITY
Red Sox Player Has Been Sold
to International League
Club.

BOSTON. November 27.-Hugh Bradley
is another member of the Red Sox
worlds champions whose services are not
wanted for next year. Yesterday Presi-
dent McAleer announced that Bradley
had been sold outright to the Jersey City
club of the International League. Bradley
had been q member of the Red Sox for a
couple of years, working behind the bat
and as first baseman. 1t was hoped
last spring that Bradley would develop
into a regular, as at Hot Springs
the sweet singer gave indications Of
being a valuable man to the team, allow
ing Manager Stahl to sit on the bench.
Brad" however, failed to come up to
expectations. his only noteworthy feat
being a home run over the left field fence
at Fenway Park. For a time he con-
tinued in the game, but had to go to the
bench because of his failure to make
good.
Notices have been issued for the an
nual meeting of the Boston National
League Base Ball Company December 3

BY j. ED GRILLO.

Horace FogeFs days as a base ball
/ magnate are numbered. BY the time the
! investigation of President Lynch's
| charges against him is over Fogel will
| most likely be outside of the base ball
breastworks for all time to come. The
fact that he has resigned the pres-
dency of the Philadelphia club will not
in any way interfere with the investiga-
ton. The league is to make some sort
of finding and the evidence seems to be
| overwhelmingly against Fogel.
The development of the facts which in
volve Charley Murphy of the Chicago
club will not be regretted by the base
ball public in general. Murphy has been
a troublemaker ever since he broke into
the game and it would not be at all
surprising if he followed Fogel out Of
the sport. If the charges which nave
been made against him to the effect that
he instigated the charges made by Foge'
that the game was crooked, the league
would have ample grounds for taking
some action against the Chicago mag
nate
1t is hard to understand why men like
FogeI and Murphy, who owe every thing
they have to base ball, should deliberately
plan to ruin confidence in the sport just to
satisfy some political ambitions. The
National League must realize that the
base ball public of this country is watch
ing it's course in these cases with much
interest. Base ball is public institution
and it is the duty of those to whom the
governing of the sport has been intrusted
to protect it from being slandered.
Rumor that Hal Chase may figure in
three-cornered DEAL the purpose of which
appears to be to land Joe Tinker in Gin
cinnati is denied by Owner Frank Farrell
who insists that regardless of who may
manage his team that Chase will continue
to be the Highlanders' first baseman. TIE
scheme reported was that Chase was to
wind up in Detroit so that Corridor could
be turned over to Chicago and Tinker go
to Cincinnati. New York was then to get
Frank Chance from Cincinnati. The lat
ter part of the deal may take place. for
there is no doubt that New York would
take kindly to Chance, but it. would be a
serious mistake to give up a player like

DOME Bush of the Detroit team holds
the distinction of having more passes to

player. Bush, in fact. set a new record
in this respect. reaching first base lie
times. only three of which were the re-
suit of being hit by the pitcher. Bush is
one of the hardest men in the game to
pitch to. He is SO small that a pitcher
has to have absolute control to get the
ball over for him, and 1t makes him a
most valuable lead-off man for a team
because there is hardly day that he
does not reach the bases one or more
times.
Grifith's team was not strong in this
respect. He did not have any good wait
ers. and the number of walks handed
them by opposing pitchers were not
many.

NEW YORK, November 27.-Evidence
was produced during the secret trial Of
Horace s. Fogel Of the Philadelphia club
by the National League at the Waldorf
Astoria last night which probably will
involve Charles Webb Murphy, owner
or the Chicago club in serious trouble
Several influential club owners made the
statement that after the case of Fogel
had been disposed of formal charges
would be brought against Murphy for the
part he is said to have played in Fogel's
alleged attempt to discredit the honesty
of the Giants victory in the pennant
race this year.
Documentary proof of collision between
Murphy and Fogel was submitted to the
league by G. F. Forman, sporting editor
OF Chicago newspaper which published
a long article by FogeI last September
and which is the chief cause of the in
vestigation. Mr.. Forman put in evidence
the original copy of the article in ques-
ton, which is written in Fogel's hand
writing and has the Philadelphia mag
mates signature attached. Mr.. Forman
also produced a letter from Fogel asking
