National League MoguIs Declare
Chicago Magnate Is Menace

Bv w. j. Macbeth.

ATEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-Charles W.
~ Murphy must so. Organized
baseball stands united on this
question Ban Johnson's threat to
drive the owner of the Cubs without
the fold is no idle boast. He Will be
backed by every one of Murphy's own
colleagues-the seven other club pres
idents of the National League.
Murphy is a menace to the peace
of our organization" said a National
League club owner yesterday. He
is far too erractic, both in his actions
and in his talk His latest outburst
against Ban johnson and Governor
Tener proves him undesirable. I do
not blame the American League, eN-
ecutive for demanding vindication on
our part,
"Murphy's case Is up to Governor
Tener His power in the National
League is absolute, as is that OF
Johnson in the American President
Tener signed four-year contract
with us last week. At the time every
club owner of the National League
save Murphy who had left town
signed a contract giving our president
supreme power in National League
affairs. We voted to give Mr. Tener
full authority to deal with Murphy"
1t was learned on excellent author
ity that the National League intends
to impeach Murphy at once If he
refuses to step down and out lie
has left himself open to expulsion by
criticising Ban Johnson and his own
league
At the time Tom Lynch succeeded
in driving Horace Fogel from organ
lied baseball the National League
magnates ~ among them Murphy
unanimously signed an agreement
which made a capital offense of any
club officials attack upon the honesty
or integrity of organized baseball or
those associated with it. In his
latest "squeal" against Johnson and
his National League associates the
Cub owner has defied this mandate
But the league is prepared to rake
out the dead past if Murphy may not
be dislodged in easier fashion. League
Attorney Toole spent most of yes
terday searching for a copy of the
celebrated letter which Murphy wrote
to a sporting writer Of Chicago, and
which directly connected Charles w.
as the instigator of FoCers offenses
At the Fogel trial MurphN's guilt
was so plainly established. according
to the word of the other National
Leagu club presidents, that he might
have been driven forth with Fogel

Boxing fans are taking Ad Wolgast
seriously in his effort to make another
stab at the lightweight championship.
Wolgast's great form in his recent bouts
prove that he is the same old battler,
plenty of hackers when he stacks up

Ritchies refusal to meet Ad in a long
bout before tackling him over the ten

has great respect for Wolgast's fight
