BUCK O'BRIEN ADDED
TO LIST OF WHITE SOX
BY CALLAHAN'S WITS
CARRIGAN MAY SUCCEED
STAHL AS RED SOX BOSS
President McAleer Has Declared War On Leader and if
Dominates, Carrigan Will Replace stahl-Meet
in Chicago Today

Boston, July IL Specially is a
big row in the Red Sox management, a
war to the knife between President Nc
Aleer and Manager Stahl The outcome
of this war will be that either McAleer
or Stahl will retire from the club.
Under the financial arrangement by
which McAleer, Stahl and Treasurer Nc
Roy came to Boston when the club was
reorganized nearly two years ago, one
half of the clubs stock is owned by the
Taylor interests and the other half is
owned by McAleer, Stahl. McRoy, c. IL.
Randle of Chicago and w. +. Mahan,
Stahrs father-in-law. Thus it may be
said that half the club is owned in Bos-
ton and the other half in Chicago
When the club was reorganzed 1t was
with the idea that John l. Taylor, who
desired to be relieved of the duties of
president, should retire from that office
He did so and McAleer was elected pres
ident, with Mr.. Taylor as vice president.
McRoy was elected treasurer and then
the work of building Fenway park was
begun.
1t quickly developed that certain of the
minority stockholders were jealous of
each other. It is said that Stahl could

not see where McAleer came in to be
president of the organization and draw
big salary for holding down that Of
fee, and it is limited that he began to
lay wires to get rid of McAleer and event
ually become president himself. This hap
pened some months ago, before the sea-
son opened.
1t was only recently that McAleer
learned of Stahls scheme and it made
him hopping mad. As the Red Sox were
not going any too we'll at the time, Nc
Aleer could not see where Stahl was earn
ing his salary as manager.
McAleer blamed Big Jake for the poor
showing of the team and this, coupled
with the fact that Stahl was trying to
undermine McAleer led him to declare
war on the manager. He resolved to go
to Chicago and have 1t out with the
minority stockholders, and has already
started on his mission. He will arrive
in Chicago tomorrow and the indications
are that the result will be the retirement
from the club of either McAleer or Stahl
If McAleer wins out he will continue
as president and the chances are that
Bill Carrigan will be made manager of
the team If McAleer loses his fight he
will probably retire and there will be a
new president.
AS matters stand now it is hard to see
how McAleer and Stahl can become rec
onciled.

Thrilling with brilliant plays and

backing received was disastrous to
Prough, while the oposing twirler i'm

Interspersed by a heavy shower of rain in
the seventh. the battle was renewed after
delay and developed into sensational
bout.

at critical stages of the conflict, slashed
a home run drive to center field. Without
thinking of hazard. Kniseley delivered

although 1t seemed he would be over

failed to grasp the most fruitful oppor-
tunity to capture the battle in the ninth
when the bases were filled before Baron

But the elongated Harrell gamely braved
the situation and retired the three fol-

sprinters to depart from tne;r respective
stations. After the battle had progressed

bunted to Harrell and landed safely when
Harrell heaved poorly to catch ELAN
at second. Prough followed with an
other advancer, which Absten fielded and
threw to third to down ELAN. The peg
was low and Ward muffed the throw.
Faced with trio of runners occupying
every cushion without a Baron out, Har-
rell twirled undaunted. The infield drew
in about the twirler. Marcan hit a smart
rap to Butler and ELAN died at the
plate Messenger delivered a like drive
and Buffers peg downed Clifton. McDon-
aid closed the session with line drive
to the short stop.
In the next two sessions neither side
threatened and the umpires closed the
game at the conclusion of the eleventh.
