WILL KEEP HANK 0'DAY
New Owners of Cubs VIII Retain
Murphy's Choice.

Chicago. Feb. 25.-Hank O'Day,
the veteran umpire whom Charles w.
Murphy named as manager Of the
Chicago National League baseball
team, which lost Johnny Evers be-
fore the club was sold to Charles p.
Taft of Cincinnati. probably will be
retained in his position during the
coming season.
This telegram from the clubs sec
retary has been received by O'Day,
who is in charge of the Cubs training
camp at Tampa, Fla, according to in
formation received here today:
Mr.. Taft instructs me to say that
your contract made with Mr.. Murphy
will be carried out and you are to
continue as il nothing had happened.
Many rumors concerning the man
agement of the Cubs had been heard
since the sale of the club last Satur-
day. Some of the rumors had been to
the effect that a new manager would
be appointed to succeed O'Day. al
though the latter would be paid the
salary stipulated in the contract he
signed with Murphy.

JOY IS MUTUAL.
Barney Dreyfuss Glad That Murphy
Has Quit.

Pittsburg. Pa, Feb. 25.-"Wil the
sale Of Evers to Boston stand?
President Dreyfuss was asked.
Yes. it will stand" he replied.
''you can gamble that the Cubs will not
be paid for Evers, but they may be
permitted to purchase some one to fill
his shoes"
What have you to say regarding
the elimination Of Murphy" Drey-
fuss was asked.
II see Murphy declares he is glad
he is out" was the reply, land 1 can
only add that the joy is mutual The
National league is glad he is gone.
Governor Tener deserves credit for
the businesslike manner in which he
handled the entire situation.
'We-the directors-were on hand
in Cincinnati but we were not needed.
The governors plan to make Murphy
sell out went through. Had it failed
the directors would have taken other
measures to bring about a similar re-
suit.
There has been some talk as to
c. p. Taft having really controlled the
Chicago club all the time. That's a
mistake. Murphy owned 81 per cent.
! believe the club will change hands
within a week and that Taft will be
entirely eliminated. do not believe
he wants to retain control but he had
to buy out Murphy to protect the mi
nority stock. If fair offer Is made

to believe this themselves.

A number of prominent Americans

Standard Oil is the man in charge.
Manager McGraw of the Giants says
he never figured on deal for First
Baseman Ed Konetchy, either during
this winter or any other time. He says
such proposition was once made to
him during the playing season, but
thought; that certainly he never en-
tertained a deal involving Merkle and
Snodgrass. Mike Donhn Is among
those who have been signed by the
New York Nationals.
All the party seems very much in
terested in the story that Murphy has
been forced out of the ownership of
the Chicago Cubs. All believe that it
will be a great thing for the game.
The game scheduled for Dublin has
been abandoned, but all the patriotic
Irish will visit there. The Chicago
bunch says it would not dare return
without having been in Ireland.

ARREST WASHERS.
Manhattan Minister Calls Police tt
Protect Girls.

Manhattan. Kan, Feb. 25.-Flip
young men who threaten to develop
into mashers are to be held in check
in a novel and emphatic manner by
c. T.. Roach, pastors assistant of the
First Christian church here.
Through the Nationalist Mr.. Roach
has issued the following proclamation:
There are some things counte-
by those thought to be pretty decent
folk which in larger cities would be
utterly condemned by any but the very
cheapest and most unprincipled class
es. One of the worst Of such practices
is that of a bunch Of impudent, ignor-
around the street corners during
church hours and then as soon as a
few girls start home alone, follow
them and in spite of protests by the
ing up a running fire of silly and un-
civil remarks.
''Such experiences have happened to
any number of Manhattan girls and
it is time some Of us got busy and
stopped it. At the Christian church
the situation has become rapidly worse
of late. and we have had to make ar
rangements with The police chief to
station a man near the entrance to
prevent such occurrences. So let this
such conduct. The officer and some
more Of US will be on hand every Sum
day night. and If the officer gets to
the offender he gets arrested, but If
get to him first he gets kicked, and
1t will be a trimming worth while, too.
I'm the meantime it rests with the
girls and their parents to see that
they do not come to church on Sum
day night without proper escort. The
young people of the church will see
that every girl has some way of get
ting home from church without being
pestered by these flippant 'mashers.'
There IL time for almost everything
and a place, but the time to get ac-
quainted with a pretty girl is certain
ly not Sunday night after church. and
neither is the sidewalk the place. A
little more care and a great deal more
determination on the part OF the girls
and others will rapidly eradicate the
, evil"

Johnny Evers Packs Up to Join
Boston Club.

Chicago, Feb. 25.-Fear that some
slip may occur to prevent his getting
the $4,000 bonus said to have been
promised in the deal whereby he was
sold to the Boston club, was expressed
last night by John ]. Evers, deposed
manager of the Chicago National
League ball club. Evers came here to
pack his things preparatory to join
ing the Boston club at Macon. Ga. He
was worried about the $4,000, he
said.
Evers said he was pleased with the
$4,000 salary he was to have. but
said the contract would be void until
the bonus was given him. The bonus
hinged, he said, on whether Players
Sweeney and Purdue reported to the
Chicago club for this season. Evers
declared he suspected one of them
might fail to report.
