B e T — ON MURPHY’S TRAIL. National League Magnates Want Him Eliminated Before Next Season. There is no longer any doubt that the National league wili reopen the case -of Charles Webb Murphy at the annual meeting in New York on De- cember 8. During a conference be- tween Gov. John K. Tener and several club owners last week Murphy be- came a live topic. Since then the matter has been taken up by all the National league magnates, who have reached the conclusion that Charles P. Taft must eliminate Murphy from the affairs of the Cubs before next season rolls around. Taft can accom- plish this task by paying $300,000 in cash to Murnphy, thereby taking up notes for that amount which were handed to the champion trouble mak- er in return for a controlling interest in the club last winter. When Mur- Phy agreed to sell 52 per cent. of the stock the Natlonal league magnates understood that Taft had paid cash for the certificates. Murphy, however, disclosed the truth_ when he announced last week that before Taft could sell the Cubs the latter would have to put up the coin for Murphy’s stock. The Na- tional league men as a result are try- ing to learn why Taft did not buy Murphy out by means of a cash trans- action In the first place. They realize that Murphy’s half ownership of the ‘West Side park in Chicago with Taft’s notes in his possession has caused re- newed ill feeling among the Windy City fans, who threaten to turn their backs on the Cubs next season unless Chubby Charley is removed. The National league men do not believe that Taft helped Murphy to decelve them. On the contrary, they ‘blame Murphy for putting Taft in a rather embarrassing position. It is probable, therefore, that Gov. Tener will have several fimportant inter- views with Taft before the National leagne meeting convenes and there seems to be no doubt that Taft will help the governor to straighten out the tangle. VY POISON ON Outicura. { ‘but donot rub. Wash off the Cuticura Oint- 3 minutes with Cuticura Soap gt ARMY-NAVY ‘Anpapolis, Md., Nov. 2. ing again in. secret, Navy's squad - was giver nearly two - hours of hard drill and ,scrimmaging this afternoon. The practice was marked by many shifts, during which all the men to get into the Army game were given especial attention. These men are more than the usual team of eleven, as so many places re- main to be filled. r a meeting of the coacles, Head Coach Howard of the Navy to- night gave out the ‘lineup that will face the Army at Philadelphia Satur- day. The midshipmen will start the game In the following order: Captain Overesch and T. Harrison, ends; McCroach and Deroode or Ward, tackles; Mills and Jones, guards; Per- ry, center; Mitchell, quarter; Blodgett and Failing, halfbacks and Bates full- back. Considerable surprise ‘was caused over the selection of Bates in place of H. Harrison, a veteran of two years, at fullback. The selection of Mitchell instead of Miles for the pivotal posi- tion probably is due to that fact that Miles still suffers from injuries to his leg, received in the Colby game two weeks ago. Another surprse was the selection of Failing, rather than Craig or Culbert for right half. Failing, like Blodgett, his runner mate, is big and husky, but not so fast as either of the other two. There was further practice in spe- cial formations, but most attention was paid to the individual work of the men from whom choice will be made for positions that are unfilled. Army Had Stif Workout. West Point, N. Y., Nov. 25.—There was nothing easy about the Army eleven’s workout this afternoon in preparation for the Navy contest on Saturday, although the scrimmaging was not hard. The early part of the drill consisted of a long forward pass rehearsal which was not particularly encouraging. Neither of the ends seemed to be up to form although Mer- rillat, once or twice got away a pret- ty pass. The kickers, Coffin and Hodgson, in- dulged in a punting duel. The former is kicking in fine form and if hé gets into the Navy contest, will be depend- ed upon to do the punting for the Army. His chances of starting against the middies Saturday are considered good. He was used on the varsity backfield for a long time today in combination with Van Fleet and Hodgson, with Captain Prichard at quarter. Harmon also got a trial at quarter on the big team today. Oli- phant worked out on the scrubs, both as quarter and as halfback. The men will get another drill tomorrow morn- ing which will wind up the home work. as the squad will leave for Philadel- phia on Friday morning. There was a big demonstration by the rooters in the stands today with a band accompaniment. All the songs and cheers for the Navy game were rehearsed. Coach Leo Leary, who looks after Harvard's ends, was among the interested football men watching the work. PEACE NEGOTIATIONS WITH FEDS COME TO SUDDEN END Fight or Disband, Says President Ban Johnson If No Decision Is Reached Saturday. Sixteen major league clubs have decided that under no circumstances will there be a renewal of peace ne- gotiations with the Feds. When Pres- ident Ban Johnson and Governor Tener announced last Friday that the Feds would be ignored hereafter they were not bluffing. So far as organ- ized baseball is concerned it will be a fight to a finish if the Feds decide to go ahead. It is up to Gilmore and his associates, therefore, to reach a final decision when they meet in Chicago on Saturday. They must fight or disband. If they select the former course, which. seems probable, they will have to change their cir- cuit by invading ome or more major league cities. This move will require more capital for the construction of ball parks and the engagement of players at exorbitant salaries. Gil- more {sn’t saying much these days, but it is believed that he is on a still hunt for men with big bankrolls. Meanwhile the players who are under contract to the Federal league clubs are anything but optimistic as to the future. It Jooks lke a case of sink or swim. Pennsy-Cornell Had Final Workout. Philadelphia, Nov. 25.—The Penn- sylvania and Cornell football squads held their final drills tofiay in prep- aration for tomorrow’s game on Franklin fleld. The Cornell players were divided into two teams and prac- ticed formations at Inlet park, Atlan- tio City. Quarterback Barrett and Left Halfback Collyer were both given opportunities to call the signals. No tackling or regular scrimmage work was indulged in. The Pennsylvania team held its workout at the Whitemarsh Country club and tonight nearly half a hundred former Red and Blue gridiron stars took dinner with the squad. The line- Middies Undergo Two Hours of Hard Drill and Scrimmaging up, as decided upon by the coaches, will include five players who did not start against Dartmouth. The advance guard of Cornell root- ers arrived here today from Ithaca anxious to lay wagers at long odds that the Red team will conquer Penn- sylvania, Notre Dame Arrives at Syracuse, Syracuse, N. Y, Nov. 25.—The Notre Dame football aquad arrived here this afternoon, ready for their game with the Syracuse university eleven tomor- row. Coach Harper announced that his team is In excellent condition af- ter the long trip from South Bend and is confident of victory. The Syracuse team, which has been shifted about since last Saturday, was also in good trim today, according to the statement of the coach. Notre Dame rules a slight favorite tomight.

As the season ends and another fall is_looked forward to, it is realized just what a veteran team it was that put over those 36 points down in Yale Bowl last Saturday for Harvard. There were no less than twenty-flvels'la,yem engaged in the match, the only one of the season for which the football association awards a varsity “H,” and of these twentyfive players no less than fifteen will go out of college when the class of 1915 is graduated néxt June. This leaves ten of the players for another season, most of them being substitutes, and nine re- turning as seniors at the beginning of the next camraign. Only one man of the twenty-five played as a freshman a year ago. Harvard will lose, besides Brickley, three of the four regular members of the backfield and ur of the seven varsity rushers. With Brickley as classmates are Logan, Bradlee and Francke, while Hardwick, Pennock, Trumbull and Jeff Coclidge, the line- men, are seniors also. Others who have played their last game of foot- ball for Harvard are the substitutes Weatherhead and Smith, ends. and Withington, Underwood and Atkinson, three of the heavy men in the middle of the line, Thus it will be seen that only three of the first string varsity players will be on hand to begin work under the Haughton system another ball. These are Eddie Mahan, the halfback; Par- son, the left tackle, and Wallace, the center rush. Mahan, who is the only TRINITY GONSOLI DATED AT THE ACADEMY.

As the only big footbal] games left on the schedule are Cornell vs. Penn- sylvania at Philadelphia on Thanks- giving day and Army vs, Navy on the same field next Saturday it is in order to rate the leading elevens for the season about to end. Harvard has won the championship beyond a ques- tion-of doubt. The Crimson team went through the recent campaign without suffering _defeat, at the same time crushing Yale and Princeton with con- summate ease. Next in point of skill and strength comes Washington and Jefferson, which beat Yale and lost to Harvard by a score of 10 to . The ‘W._.and J. players rolled up 207 points, Dartmouth alone excelling them in this respect. As Yale refeated Prince- ton and_was conquered by Harvard and the W. and J. team, Hinkey’s men in spite of their poor showing against the Crimson on Saturday, appear to be entitled to third place. Then comes Princeton, with victories over Dart- mouth and Syracuse. Dartmouth has earned fifth position, although some of the experts may give the Hanover players a higher rating because of the fact that they lead in points with 357, their opponents making only 25. If the Army trims the Navy the for- mer will be rated above Cornell. The West Point team so far has a clean record. Manchester.—The barbers of Man- chester have started a petition asking that the shops close every evening at 8 o'clock and at noon Thursday. DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD American Cars are Being Used Extensively by the Russian Army—Ralph DePalma Has Won More Big Races Than any Other Driver—Safety First Tour Covered a Wide Area. In view of the fact that there will be no great annual automobile shows aoroad in the cities of London, Paris, Brussels and Berlin, interest in._the two big American shows in New York and Chicago next January has conse- quently increased to a large degree Like many other lines of goods the “Made in- America” automobile . is practically the only new model that the prospective buyer can obtain, for barring importations from Italy there are very few shipments that can find their way to America. With every prospect of a bigger and better show than ever before held, manufacturers of cars and accessories are seeking more space for this win- ter's shows than at any previous one. The motorcycle manufacturers have made similar requests, and the task of squeezing additional space out of the four floors of the mammoth Grand Central Palace is a difficult one. Each week concerns, which have never be- fore exhibited their products at Na- tional shows are besieging Manager S. A. Miles to allot them space- As has been announced, the New York show, which is ‘to take place in the Grand Central Palace January 2 to 9, will have 92 exhibitors of completed cars and several hundred displays of ac- cessories. For the Chicago show, which is to be held in the Coliseum and armory, a like number of exhibit- ors of complete cars and more than 200 acessory makers have secured space. Motorcycles will be shown in a comprehensive manner at both expo- sitions. sManager Miles has been in Chicago the past week, arranging for the dec- orations of the New York and Chicago show buildings. Headquarters for both of these is located at 7 East 42nd street, New York city. ng used ex- an Army now operating against the Germans and Austrians in East Prussia. A big squadron of cars is constantly on the go performing the important work of carrying messages to and from various headquarters in the fleld. According to advices to the Motor Car Company, the cars have been giving a very gcod account of themselves. These machines were purchased by the Russian Government sometime be- fore the war, when the Imperial co; tract was placed for 200 cars. The cads were chosen by the Army au- thorities because of its splendid show- ing in various speed contests in Russia. This same care make won the first Grand Prize Race in Russia some- time before the war against a large fleld- Prior to that time, it had been victorious in races staged by the Army, and came away the winner In the races from Petrograd to Kron- stadt, which were run over the frozen surface of the Gulf of Finland. While some of the managers of so- called “speed kings” and “automoblie race champions” are making some surprising clalms for their proteges, who stack up as great champions on paper, a glance at the American Auto- mobile association contest board rec- ord for a number of year proves conclusively what has been contended for a long while—namely that the automobile .road race champion is Ralph De Palma. The records show that De Palma has won more big road races than any driver in the world in the history of automobile racing, having nine victories to his credit in big road events, including two Vanderbilt cup races and five wins at Elgin. His nearest competi- tor is Earl Cooper, who has six road races to his credit. Teddy Tetslaff, Harvey -Herrick and the late Lewis Strang are credited with four; Ralph Mulford, three; Hugh Hughes, three: George Robertson three; and Harry Grant and Bddie Pullen, two. In con- trast with the famous forelgn drivers, the great Georges Boillot and Louis ‘Wagner have four road race victories each—not half as many as De Palma. Nazzarc has won five road races and Lencia three. In addition to being a nine-time road race winner and unquestioned champion at this game, De Palma was also tha track champion in the years 1908, 1908 and 1910, and and track championship. gmnflca.lly stopped driving ut more recently has track events, scoring first place nearly all of his starts. He has won more than 20 track races. De Palma's list of first places in road races includes: 1909—Riverhead stock car race (heavy cars). 1912—Santa Monica 1light car race, 1912—Eigin national trophy face. 1912—Elgin free-for-all race- 1812—Vanderbilt cup - race, Milwau- kee, Wis. 1913—Cobe trophy (300 cubic in. class), Elgin, Il 1914—Vanderbilt Cup race—Santa Monica, Cal. 1914—Elgin National Trophy Race. 1914—Cobe Trophy Race, Elgin, IIL In all of these nine victories De Palma broke records for the course, either free-for-all marks of class records, with the exception of River- head and Milwaukee, where he estab- lished records for the course. De Palma recently had all of the above mentioned records verified at the of- fice of the Contest Board in New York, and they are absolutely official. Those who in their advertising on bill boards and elsewhere are endeavoring to make it appear that any other driver than De Palma is the auto- mobile road race champlon, are mis- leading. Frederick H. Elliott, general secre- tary of the Safety First society of Greater New York has returned from an automobile tour, covering a period of over two months, in which he has visited 70 citles in 13 states, in- cluding Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Chi- cago, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Indianap- olis, Louisville, Cincinnati, Columbia, Wheeling, Pittsburgh, Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia. The to- tal mileage for the trip was 3,600, a remarkable feature of the trip being that only three rainy days were en- countered during the period of nine weeks. Mr. Elliott has made a per- sonal study and investigation of the traffic regulations in all the cities vis- ited and found that much progress had been made in the - handling of street traffic in many municipalities throughout the Middle West. The near side stop for street cars has been universally adopted and the safety zone on the pavement opposite the point where street ca stop are very popular and have been inaug- urated in various localities. In De- troit, Michigan, Mr. Elitt conferred with Police Commissioner John Gilles- pie, who has put into effect many new and practical traffic regulations, the most important of which is the one providing that pedestrians shall cross at the street intersections and prohib- iting crossing the street intersections diagonally, or in the middle of & block. Police officlals in many of the cities visited approve of the Detroit traffic regulations and are planning to adopt the same together with the safety Zones and indicating the lines at the Street intersections for pedestrians to follow. As a result of the Safety First tour it is probable that a national federa- tion of the Safety First societies and committees - throughout the country will_be organized for the purpose of establishing a clearing house for the exchange of ideas and suggestions, the dissemination of literature, the compiling of data and standardization work, which will be of assistance in carrying on the campaigns throughout the country. “Frequently | am asked by tire us- ers as to whether the jacking up of the front and rear axles. of a car every night or during the dead storage months of winter would materially lengthen the life of a tire” says J. W, Gogarn, general distributor for a tire concern. “Having a native aversion to being & referee in matters of such delicacy and uncertainty I recently wrote to the tire factory and an answer which follows: “It is very difficult to say just how much the jacking up of cars would lengthen the life of tires. And as to the weight of the car increasing the pressure in the tires would say that not long ago I had a 37x5 casing put on a rim and inflated it to 100 pounds, measuring by a guage. I left the guage and put 1,000 pounds load on this tire, oyt any differ- m in the pressure. I do m;t'én!fi.cr there was. no.. e, bu guage” was not. ive enough to record it.” i Cranston & company.

Schwab Visited Groton Engine Plant. The visit to Groton Tuesday of Charles M. Schwab, the Bethlehem steel magnate, strengthens the belief that the engines for 20 submarines that are to be built at Groton are intended for the British navy. Mr. Schwab vis- ited the offices and plant of New Lon- don Ship & Engine Co., where work on the big engine order had already been undertaken. Officers of the com- pany had nothing to say beyond the fact that Mr. Schwab visited the plapt, Mr. Schwab went abroad on steam- ship Oceanic, On that trip the Oceanic took off the crew of the superdread- nought Audacious. Later the steam- ship landed at Lough Swilley, but the fact that only Mr. Schwab and a Brit- ish naval officer were allowed to go ashore was considered significant. A few days later it was announced that steel for 20 submarines would be pro- duced at Bethlehem and that at Quin- cy the hulls for the boats would be built. Subsequently it was stated the i cision reserved. engines would be built in Groton.

New York, Nov. ~The fact that the stock exchange is to open at the end of the week, has further stimu- lated confidence in financial circles. This was demonstrated today by an announcement of an early resumptior of business by the local coffee exchange and by a broader inquiry for securi- ties of the better class some of which attained to best prices recorded since the exchange suspended operations. Business dwindled in the unofficial nfirket, which was fast losing all claims to future existence. United States Steel and Amalgamated Cop- per, which were the favorites there, have been practically withdrawn, after recovering to a level little short of July 20 quotations. Another indica- tion of a general jeturn to normal con« ditions was furnished by the curb, where trading in bonds at stable prices was resumed. Of all ' the important factors, the steel inquiry almost alone continued to evince evidence of backwardness. Large sales of iron were reported for the last two days, but the real state of the trade was shown by-the willing- ness of manufacturers to book orders for the first quarter of 1915 at present prices. It was generally believed that unless business soon recoved in mark- ed manner, price concessions and lower wages would soon be announced. Another decline in the rate of money for 90 days to 4 1-2 percent pointed to the abundan: cash resources at this center and bespoke the diminished de- mand.
