Telegram to Bee Announces
Plans of Eastern Club to
Come Here for Game
With Murphys.

The final game for the amateur
base ball championship of the United
States will be staged in Omaha or
Sunday afternoon.
This information was received by
The Omaha Bee from Cincinnati
where the final games for the cham
pionship of the National Amateur
Base Ball federation were staged
Yesterday, Cincinnati carrying of
the championship.
Where the game will be staged is
still an uncertainty, but in all prob
abilities it will be played at Fonte,
nellie park, since Rourke park can
not be obtained and Luxus park is
entirely too small to handle the
crowd.
Surprise to Officials.
This will no doubt come as a sur
prise to the officials of the associa-
ton as we'll as the Murphy-Did-lts
who will represent Omaha in the
worlds amateur championship game
since no information had been re-
ceived up to 4 o'clock yesterday aft
crnoon by Secretary Isaacson from
the eastern organization.
President Nokes of the federation
has been corresponding with Isaac
son in arranging this series, but no
information was received here as to
when the game would be played
Canton, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh
were fighting it out for the Class
IA championship, and according to
the eastern officials the game had to
be played in Omaha, with the local
association paving all expenses.
Isaacson notified Nokes last week
that Omaha would be willing to play
the eastern champs and would guar
antee them $3.50 This however, &C
cording to word received by Isaac
son, was not satisfactory to them,
but according to the information re-
ceived last night by The Bee, they
have accepted the offer,
Won Western Title.
The Murphy -Did-Its earned the
right to represent Omaha in the
worlds title game by winning the
Class A Greater Omaha league pen
nant and won the championship OF
the Western Amateur Base ball as
ISOLATION by defeating the Gordon
Fergusons of St. Paul here by the
score of IA to a.
The city championship game be-
tween the Murphys and the Union
Quitting company, class B city
champs, which was scheduled for last
Sunday, but was called off on &C
count of rain, and was to have been
played Sunday, was called off yes
terday since the Murphys had a
game scheduled with the Lincoln
Cleaners for Sunday.
However, this game will be can
celed, since the Omahans must play
tn eastern champions Sunday. Meth
er Manager LAWYER nor Bert Muir
ply could be reached at a late hour
last night.
Unions Tied for Game.
Manager Mat Pascal of the Union
Quitting company team, not being
aware that the Murphys mad a game
scheduled with the Cleaners fol-
Sunday, last night wired the Lincoln
team for a game Sunday, to be
played at Lincoln.
The Outhtters have good chance
of playing the Lincolnites, since the
championship fray is scheduled here
for Sunday. If the local class B
warriors are successful in arranging
this game it will be a snappy battle
according to Omaha fans, as it will
prove the strength of the locals
since the Cardozos, class A champs
of the St. Paul Amateur Base Ball
association, were victorious over
both the Unions and the Lincoln
team, winning each game by to
| Q score.
