Against Chicago for Ma

Philadelphia, Oct. Charles Doom,
former manager of the Philadelphia
National league baseball team, in a
statement published by the press to-
day, corroborated charges made by
Horace S. Fogel, former president of
the club, that members of the Phillies
had been offered large sums to throw"
games to the New York Giants in 1908
when New York and Chicago were
fighting for the National league pen
nant
I'm 1905 every member of the Phil
lies was approached with offers of fab
bilious sums" Doom said. "All any of
us had to do was to name our price
A member of the Giants was one of
those who tried to buy us off. A man
approached me after the first game in
New York and handed me a package
containing $4,000. ! was told there
was $4,000 more in the bank awaiting
me He was big fellow and | called
Kitty Bransfeld, our first baseman
Kitty threw him down the steps Of our
clubhouse"
Doom said the reason he did not
tell of the attempted bribery sooner
was because he and the other members
of the team thought il was for the
best interests of the game to keep
quiet.
"The public is all too ready to be-
heve that baseball is dishonest he

Chicago, Oct. I.--Plans for a new

The new body must be tion-wide

should be no place for a dishonest
PLAYER or promoter in the national pas

The movement to form a new body
was already under way, he said, and
would take form after the worlds Sc
res.
He had no ideas, he said, regarding
the men who could be induced to com
pose such baseball commission as he
outlined, but asserted that such men
could and would be found before an
other PLAYING season was due.

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR CA
TARRH, CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES.

If YOU know of some one who is
troubled with Catarrhal Deafness, head
noises or ordinary catarrh cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you
NAV have been the means of saving
some poor sufferer perhaps from total
deafness. In England scientists for a
long time past have recognized that
catarrh is constitutional disease and
necessarily requires constitutional
treatment.
Sprays, inhalers and nose douches
are liable 10 irritate the delicate air
passages and force the disease into the
middle ear which frequently means to-
tai deafness, or else the disease may be
driven down the air passages towards
the lungs which is equally as dangerous.
The following formula which is used
extensively in the damp English climate
is a constitutional treatment and
should prove especially efficacious to
sufferers here who live under more fav-
orable climate conditions.
