Packey Accused Of
"Frameup" in East

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-There is a
story in circulation along Broadway
that the reason the Packey McF'ar-

off was because the boxers could not
money, but over how the battle was
to have terminated. II is said on in
side information that when the match
was first made the agreement was
made that the boxers were to go along
and box a good draw, but at the last
moment something came up that
thwarted the plans.
AS a result Promoter Billy Gibson
has called off the battle, which was
scheduled for March 8, and an
nounced that the boxers could not
agree on the financial terms.

By Frank G. Menke.

NEW YORK, Feb 2O-The foozles
" of Charles w. Murphy, of the
Cubs, and Charles H. Ebbets,
of the Dodgers. are blamed quite gen.
orally for the sudden rise to power
of the Federal League, but Garry
Hermann, of the Reds, assisted by
certain quantities of Waldorf Astoria
champagne, is the real cause.
If Hermann had kept his promise
to Murphy, and hadn't double-crossed
him on the Tinker deal, the Federal
League to-day perhaps would be on
the point of disbanding. But Herr
mann broke his promise, Hermann
worked the double-cross and the Ma
tional League, as the result, is in
mighty bad straits.
Tinker's action in going over to the
Federal League really made that or
ganization. James A. Gilmore, presi-
dent of that league, frankly admits
it, and every man 'conversant with
baseball affairs knows it.
HERE is; the story of the Tinker
IL Murphy Hermann Ebbets af-
fair:
About the last part Of November
Joe Tinker went to the Cub head
quarters and told the secretary that
he was willing to play with the Cubs
in 1914. The secretary at once cabled
Murphy, who was in Europe, tell
ing him Hermann was going to Of
fer Tinker for sale at the National
League meeting on December 8, that
Tinker wanted to play in Chicago.
and that Murphy might be able to
get Tinker if he hurried back to the
United States
Murphy jumped the first boat and
landed at the Waldorf after Ebbets

Trent Meets Collins
In Main Bout at the
Columbia Saturday

The management of the Columbia
Theater has booked three good scraps
for tomorrow night. one ten-round go,
one six-round affair and a four-round
preliminary is on the card.
The main bout or the evening will
bring Happy Joe" Trent, who has won
his last three fights, and Eddie Collins
together. These battlers are billed to
go ten rounds to decision.
Kid York, the youngster who is com
ing to the front with rapid strides,
will take on Oliver Pierce in the six
round semi windup. Pierce has been
after a match with either Kid Young
or Charlie Lee and will be accommo-
dated If he wins decisively over York.
Kid Duke and Kid Williams, bantam
weights, will clash in the founr round
opener. Williams shaded Duke in a
rafting scrap last Saturday night, and
the latter is out to reverse the verdict.

Herman Blamed for New League
Garry uble-Crossed Murphy

had made his offer to Hermann for
Tinker's services. On December IL,
Hermann and Murphy had con-
ference which resulted in Hermann
telling Murphy he would give him the
sole right to deal with Tinker for the
next 4S hours.
Murphy took the first train for Chi
cago so that he could get to Tinker
and talk over terms with him. Just
before his departure Murphy was
jubiant He felt sure he and Tinker
could come to terms because Tinker
had declared he wanted to play in
Chicago. And Murphy had Herr
mann's word for it that he had the
sole right to negotiate with Tinker
for the next two days.
VET at about 6 o'clock in the even
ing Ebbets sought out Herr
mann in the Waldorf barroom, and
while champagne flowed in free and
easy way, and in the presence OF
about a score of newspaper men
Hermann, the man who had given
Murphy a verbal option on Tinker

Had Herman kept his promise to
Murphy, it is a certainty that Muir
phy would nave signed up Inner "
play with the Cubs, and so kept him
in organized baseball. Tinker himself
says he would have signed up with
Murphy at Murphy's own terms, so
anxious was he to get back to Chi
cago.
But, as things turned out, Herr
mann broke his word to Murphy, sold
Tinker to Ebbets Ebbets tried to get
lot of cheap advertising by refus-
ing to give Tinker the salary he
wanted, the result was that Tinker
jumped-and the Federal League was
made"

Stapp Wins Kendall Trophy.

TT is interesting to know that
there is a fiourishing society
of golfers in London. There is
also an Irish golfing society that has
been recently formed and Sir Thorn
as D. Pile, Bart. has been asked to

ships. The British in 1900, 1903 and

and the German in 1912. No pro-
fessional employed at any club has
ever equaled that record.
The testimonial presented to dis

IN The Daily Mail, of January "a,
there is an article devoted to

courses near London 1t seems these
links are actually cengested at this
season of the year in spite of the
fact that so many new ones have
been laid out. Greenkeeping has been
so improved that certain greens are
famous for the dryness and good lies
are as easily found as in spring, sum
mer and autumn.
Harry Vardon played two rounds
