P)hy and Fogel Should

Vlade by Club Presidents Reflect On Honesty

W YQBK, Oct. 12. Those Siam

; Oaarjes "Webb Murphy and Hor
ace Fogel, have just about
(3 ileaselves to death. Horace, the
Hhead of the National league af.

, looked a sure pennant contender for
1913.
MuVphy is doubtless responsible for
all Horace Fogol's troubles and they1
are many as tho sands of the seashore.
In fact it looks as if Horace may retire
Eermanently within the near future. If
e does not do so voluntarily the Na
tional league may belp him to decide
on a lifo of peace and solitude, Fogel
has insulted tho most sacred institu
tions of baseball -'s organization by in
sinuating against the honesty of tho
national pastime. He has charged Tom
Lynch with deliberately throwing the
pennant to New York, through official
injustices. It seems time for Fogel
to be mado to prove his charges by
the board of directors of tho National
league or to be thrown out of organized
baseball.
Should Be Banished..
As a matter of fact everyone connect
ed with organized baseball knows quite
well that Horace Fogel is simply an in
strument of Charles W. Murphy. Charles
P. Taft is the power behind the throue,
both in Chicago and in Philadelphia.
Those Cubs and 9uanrs aro closely
allied in financial interests. That was
proved last fall when by mistake Ho
race Fogel inclosed a financial state
ment of his club's affairs, intended for
Murphy, in a letter addressed to Au
gust Hermann. Murphy i6 said never
to havo forgiven' Horace for this stu?
pendous fboue.". Those close, to the
situation declare that Murphy has been
responsible for all the wjd ravings
of Horace. They believe that Fogel has
been tricked into incriminating himself
so that Murphy could be nd or tne pain
ful duty of taking an official head.
Murphy las, said far more than Fogel,
only be is wise enough never to say
it in black, and white- Ho always has
reserved that old alibi, "I was mis
quoted." .
All of which again revives the old
question: "Is tie world's Beries worth
all the scandal?" Year after year
the afterclap becomes'more serious. And
all because of a very few unsporfcsntan
like promoters who cannot take defeat
gracefully. Baseball is the only clean
sport loify and it seems nothing short
of crime to have Dublic confidence im
paired bv a few "tin horne." Better
far to use" the knife bftfnvr tho can
ker oafs into the heart of the profes
sion. Until such men as Fogel and
Murpby are either driven out of the
game or silenced for good the strong
foundations of the great summer pas
time will be menaced.

JOOEEY DAVE NIOOL. .
A FEW years ago, tha name of Dave
Nicol was hailed with acclaim
throughout the racing world as the pre
mier jockey of his day. For several
years NicoI's name stood at the top of
winning riders in Ajnerica, but the
clever horseman grew carolers and fail- .
ure to keep in coirflition caused him to
take on weight and soon grow too
heavy to ride. But after more than '
two years' absence from the saddle, the1
crack rider has "coma back" and is
again a star among turf riders. He

favorable and the track conditions poor,
but despite these handicaps the atten
I dance was up to expectations and the
sport Interesting and at times excltlng
Wlth tho present beautiful weather, the
crowds at the race course this week,
should be greatly augmented.
The track should aoon be at ita best
and an even better class of horses will
be seen In' contention. Owners of high
priced thoroughbreds were unwilling last
week to start their valuable horsesi over
a track deep In mud, but with the
course In good condition, the best horses
in tho west will compete for the purses.
The race meetings in Western Canada

Pitcher Walter Blagle of the Bame team

Catcher Hugh Smith, who has been 111
for some time with rheumatism, was re
ported in a serious condition today and
his relatives have been summoned to

The epidemic of typhoid which is mak

team's last visit to Sacramento.
It was known at the time Holtmuller
was stricken that several other players
were not feeling well, and an examina

Gardner's Manager
Tells of Work On ;
High School Team
Among Salt Lake City's enthusiastic ''H
supporters of the Boston Bed Sox is E . 1
J. Irish, clerk In the city ticket offlci
of the Harrlman lines. Speaking of thi '
boys yesterday Mr. Irish said. 1 1
My Interest in the Boston team
probably is Increased because I knew H
Collins and Gardner, the pitcher and
third baseman, when they wero do-
lng their first baseball playing on a
high school team. I was manager of H
the high school team on which Gard- aaiH
ncr played and also manager of the
first semi-professional team on which 1
he played. Collins is from the same
little neighborhood in Vermont and I
know him well, although I was not in
high school with him aa I was with
Gardner.
In addition to being star ball play
ers both ore as line fellows as you
will find anywhere and I am glad to
hear of their success. I was mighty IH
proud of Gardner when he mode the
two runs for Boston yesterday, Of
course I expect the Red Sox to win IH
the series.
Tho boys were generally pitted -against
one another when I Knew
thorn and were both, considered to be IH
promising pl¥. I am glad they
are now on the same team, 60 that I :
do not have to decide on which of : H
them to support. )
