In Spencer Abbott. and James X
Crawford, who have become asso-
ciated In the PRONUNCIATION OF West
ern league baseball in Tulsa. the oil
metropolis boasts a president who
mas been most successful both az a
player and manager, and u treasurer
who Is entitled TO the title OF Tulsa =
most enthusiastic baseball fan.
During his 3 years experience as
minor league manager, Abbott has
been unplaccd only once. He has
led three pennant winners, has fin
ished second five times and third
twice.
Abbott broke into baseball as a
pitcher, but when his arm went to
the bad he watched his opportunity
and slipped into Job at first base
There he spent most Nof his time
His greatest year was 1907 when he
played first In l3S games and made
only one bohble. The same season
he batted .2S9 and swlped 50 bases.
Dyed In the Wool.
Mr., Crawford has been "A dyed in
wool fan since the time when as
a youngstor he used To slip un-
der the fence. His love for the sport
has been Mr.. Crawford's main hobby.
For seven years he has not missed
worlds series game and in addi-
tIon has seen other big league CON
tests whenever possible.
This Is Mr.. Crawford's first ven
ture as n magnate, but long expert
ence in the game as a fan who has
studied baseball from every angle
has fitted him xcepuonallyw well for
mis- new role.
Big Icaguers Know Him.
He probably knows more big
league players and moguls than any
man who has not been associated In
an official capacity in the game.
Every manager and club official In
well known by Mr.. Crawford and
they all know him. when II WAS
announced that he was to be asso-
ciated with Mr.. Abbott, kilograms OF
congratulation came pouring into
him from men whose names are
linked with the history OF the ma
tional game since its infancy. John
McGaw and Charles CoAniskey

William Boyle, Jr., Association, a
Democratic organization.
It happened on Saturday night (also

place was its name. Il might be said
that except for the liquid concomitants,
a part of every successful beefsteak,
the dinner was a decidedly warm af-
fair.
Democratic politicians and office
holders came from the five boroughs.

Louis n. IIartog to
Recover $4,000
Tammany Leader Alleges He
Put That Much in One of
Defendants Companies.
but Never Received Stock

Charles +. Murphy, Tammany leader
who. with others, is being sued fol
Sl0,000,000 damages by Louis \. Har-
tog, brought a counter suit yesterday
to recover Sl75,000 which the politician
says he invested in the business of Mr.
Hartog.
Mr.. Hartog is manufacturer Of a
preparation known as "Malto Dex-
trine." He sued Mr.. Murphy as one OF
several persons VINO, re alleged, had
conspired to deprive him OF neces-
sary supply of glucose.
Mr.. Murphy says in his action that
he paid Mr.. Hartog S125,000 in cash
and $4,000 in check and agreed to
pay $l25,000 more as working capital
for the North Kensington Refining
Company, a Hartog concern. For this
Nr. Murphy was to receive capital
stock. The Hartog concern at the time
was making in excess OF $4,000 day
profit.
Nr. Murphy alleges That Mr.. Hartog
did not issue the additional stock con-
tracted for, and that the defendant
caused the $4,000 check of Mr.. Muir
ply to be deposited to his own account.
Mr.. Murphy also complains that Mr..
Hartog refused to permit him to ex-
anime the books and accounts of the
company. Upon his discovery that the
contract had been violated, says the
Tammany leader, he demanded back his
$l75,O00, but did not get it.
