Man of the Hour
Is Governor Tener

New York, Feb. 12.-With a dis
tinct decision over Murphy in the ver-
bal bout before the National League
to his credit. Evers last night declared
that Governor John K. Tener had
been the man of the hour. Continu-
ing Evers said, "He told me that I
would get justice, and thus far have,
but / want Murphy to pay for his
treatment of me. 1t was some salts
faction to see Murphy shown up, but
I want more. The Federal League has
practically recognized me as free
agent, and can have $4,000 at once
and possibly $4,000 for signing.

think Jim Gaffney is one of the
gamest men I ever met. He offered
me the same salary to play with Bos-
ton that was getting with Murphy as
player and manager. But why should
l be used by the National League in
trade that will help Murphy?"
On the authority of Clark Griffith
there is a concerted action on the part
of Ban Johnson and President Tener
to go after Murphy. Just what they
will do to him is food for thought. But
If Murphy is not retired from baseball
| it is expected that they will be able
to pull up the check rein very tight
and prevent the repetition of the
many ructlons stirred up by the Chi

Five men now stand out promi-
nently in the contest for the middle
weight championship of the United
States. One of them may develop
within this year and then there will
be champion in a class which has
had none for years.
These are the candidates:
George Chip (whose real name is
Chipulonis), born in Scranton August
20, 1888.
Jimmy Clabby born in Norwich
Conn.,. July IA, 1890.
Eddie McGoorty, born in Oshkosh
Wis, July 81. 1889.
Mike Gibbons, born in st. Paul
July 20. 1888.
Leo Houck. born in Lancaster, Pa.
November 4, 1889.
They are virtually all of the same
age and weight. The eldest is Mike
Gibbons, who is within a few months
of twenty-siX, and the youngest is
Clabby, who is within few months
of twenty-four years.
If twenty-round fights could be
given in Wisconsin, Massachusetts
and New York. where most matches
are made these days, it would moi
take long to develop a champion from
these sturdy boys. But few sportine
men are inclined to consider seriously
the no-decision ten-round contests

Heretofore it has been against the

America, does not agree with Antb-

the man on the street from seeing
the shadow until nearly 10 O'Clock.
One thing is certain, the moon was
properly eclipsed, as had been pre-

to see the moon except at some cross
