FOR RACQUET TITLE
Shaw and Fearing Had to Go
Seven Sets to Beat Davis
and Wear.

BOSTON. January 25.-The present
doubles racquet champions. Quincy A.
Shaw and George r. Fearing of Bos-
ton were pushed to the limit today In
defeating the western aspirants.
Dwight F. Davis and j. Wear of st.
Louis in the second round Of this
years championship at the Tennis and
Racquet Club.
Seven sets were necessary before
Shaw and Fearing won; Ills. 15-11.
As, 15-6. 15-9. 6-15 and 15-6.
Superior steadiness won over spas
modic brilliancy. Davis played par
ticularly aggressive game. while his
left-handed service was of the same
terrific character that marked his lawn
tennis play ten years ago. Wear was
reliable, but both showed erratic play
at critical periods.
The second match in the semi-finals
resulted in a six-set victory for p. d.
Haughton. head foot ball coach at
Harvard, and HI. D. Scott of Boston.
They defeated c. Hutchins and Barrett
Wendell. jr., Isl, SIS, 17-18. Isl.
15-17 and $50.
Haughton and Scott will meet Shaw
and Fearing for the championship.

THREATENS MURPHY
Frank Chance Wires Cub
Owner to Hold His Tongue.
SAYS HE'LL TELL FACTS
Rumor That Locke Really Only
Represents the Chi
cago Man.
pecial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatc to The Star
PHILADELPHIA, January %. The
dogs of war are running wild again, and
Charles w. Murphy, extensively adyer-
tised president of the Cubs, had better
duck for cover-that is If Frank Chance
former manager of the West Side team
and now leader OF the New York club,
makes good on a threat made today in a
scorching telegram sent to the Cub owner
from Glendora, CAL, according to Chi
cago dispatch to local paper. The mes
sage, with a threat that will mean more
to Murphy than the public can imagine,
is as follows:
II consider it beneath my dignity to an
swer any OF your insinuations regarding
myself; however, II 1 hear Of any more
interviews derogatory to me will shut
you up as quickly as did last fall. This
goes
What Chance knows of the affairs Of
the Cub president is a puzzle that only
he can answer. 1t Is thought. however,
that Murphy will never tempt him to tell
all he knows, and not without reason.
Chance before going homo to California
last fall said that II Murphy didn't cease
at the proper time he would make public
facts that would not only force Murphy
out of base ball, but would involve sew
eral other big men Of the country.
Is the we'll known Charles w. Murphy
the real man with the coin behind the
newly organized Philadelphia National
League Club? This is the question aris-
ing from the report from Cincinnati say
ing that the Cub president had announced
his purchase of half Of the Phillies' ball
park from Charles P. Taft, part owner OF
the Cubs and until recently majority
stakeholder in the club over which VIII
liam Locke now presides.
Murphy's announcement Of his acquire
ment Of the Philadelphia park does not
fit well with previous reports given out
in connection with the sale of the club.
Neither does 1t explain a recent visit to
Chicago by Locke, who either failed to
convince Murphy that he ought to sell
Philly stock or sought financial backing
to purchase the shares held by Charles
p. Taft, who was anxious to get out Of
the muddle.
