4 was in this environment that
Murphy became absorbed in politics.
When Murphy was q youth he
was ball player of considerable
n0tghb0rhood fame. The East Side
in those days had high respect for
physical prowess as well as political.
Captain Of Team.
Murphy became captain Of dis
trict team, and It was recorded that
under his leadership his club went
through an entire season without a
defeat. ALI this time Murphy was
adding to his popularity and his
acquaintance throughout the popul-
Gus East Side. He formed club
finally Of his ball payers and their
followers and 1t grew in power un.
til at last 1t became political
factor.
This was Murphy's start on a
career that was to lead him to the
heights of power in not only State.
but national politics, His first real
fling at politics came when he
backed Edward Hagen. an indepen'
dent candidate for the assembly in
his district. Hagen was elected
and the organization defeated.
Consequently the organization de-
caded to take the rising young
1rishman into its counsels.
Is Given Office.
Mayor Van Wyck, then Tam
many mayor of New York, soon
after this gave Murphy one of the
few political offices he ever held.
He made him dock commissioner.
After this Murphy sold his saloons
and went into the contract and
constructing business with his
brother.
From this time on, Murphy's rise
In New York politics was little
short Of phenomenal. Through the
great power he welded in NUM-
cipal affairs he became known as
the maker and breaker of mayors.
Consequently in 1902, when Rich.
ard Croker laid down the leadership
Of Tammany Hall there was little
or no question as to who should
succeed him. Murphy stepped into
his shoes and from that day on he
welded power in municipal and
state politics such as few men ever
had. He was "the Boss" 1.-THE
Chief" and ''The Gar"
Was Nearly Sixty-six.
Murphy was within two months
Of being sixty-six years old. He
was born June 90, 1858, the son
OF John M. Murphy.
