By Mon- day the Waldorf-Astoria, where the annual meeting of the Natfonal League takes place, will be a veritable beehive of baseball folk. All kinds of things are in the wind.

A lot of people think Murphy was “the man behind” the Fogel charges, but ¢t thean“t deen proved. ‘There are no charges against Murphy now and the chances are none will be made, the League evidently being satia- fied with what they id to Fogel.

RE-ELECTION OF TOM LYNCH AS PRESIDENT ASSURED. ‘The firet weighty matter to engage the attention of the baseball court, after Chairman Herrmann blows the whistle, te the election of @ president. Until the Fogel special meeting several names were spoken of for the job, Tom Lynch, the present incumbent, thoroughly vin- | dicated himself when he forced Horace Fogel, the former Philadelphia president, out of organized baseball for making statements reflecting on the honesty of the National League's race last year, and all the block signals are now set for the speedy re-election of the teague's head. The re-election of Lynch should be one of the easiest tasks for the directors, for next comes the setioug Bresnahan case. Roger, tt will be remembered, was scharged from the posttion of, manager of the St. Louls Cardinals despite the fact that he had an tronclad contract with the club for five years and an agreement oalling for 30 per cent. of the profits, The former Giant clatms that he ts entitled to $40,000 from Mra, Britton, who owns the club, ae well as 10 per cent, of the profits of last year's earnings of the team, Bresnahan was under @ contract that called for $10,000 a year, and es he served only one year ae manager under this stipuation, he feels sure that he hia four more years’ ealary coming to him At first Roger didn't fee! disposed to present his grievance before the Board of Directors, but upen the advice of Brooklyn owner for a long time, and the other magnates just at around and seo that Bbbetts doesn't grab all the holiday dates for the Dodgers.

Here’s the Man Who'll Run Giants tes Harry Hempstead, Brush’s Son-in- Law, Likely to Be Elected Club’s President at League Meeting. ARRY NEWTON HEIMPSTDAD, carrying out the policies of the Inte John T. Brush, will represent the Giants’ club at the annual meeting of the league Girectora in thia city next week. A son-in-law of Mr. Brush the acting president of the Gianta, has long been groomed under the personal guidance of the late Giants’ owner, and in the opinton of baseball authorities the new leader of the local club fe well equipped to look after the best in- eee eee oe ee Merrett toa at league directors. Mr. Hempstead te en route "prom Indianapolis, where he attended the funeral of Mr. Brush. He waited as long possible for the rea@ing of the will, in which it te Meved that Mr. Brush directed that his son-inlew be mate president, but wae forced to leave that city to-day tm order to be on hand when Chairman Herrmann calls the league meeting to orer Monday. Harry Newton Hempstead married a daughter of Brush by his first wife, Agnes Ewart Bruah, who died in 188. While not taking @ conspicuous part in baseball, Mr. Hemp- stead was long a director of the Giants. When Mr. Brush realized hia complaint was fatal last month he called a special meeting of the directors, and hie suggestion that Hempstead be made acting president was carried out. At the same meeting R. H. McCutcheon, another director, suc- ceeded Joe O'Brien an secretary. @ince Mr. Brush's death rumors gained considerable cir- culation to the effect that the hetre would ell thetr holding in the Giants, but Mr. Hempstead has repeatedly denied these reports and made it clear that the club the future woukt be governed by the same policies that under Mr. Seay See POTS BENSON SHOOTS 15 BASKETS FOR COLUMBIA AGAINST MARYLAND “o.com Blue and White’s Right For-| Should Prove Best Ever. ward Big Factor in Team’s HE ennval crom-country ¢ham 43 to 12 Victory.
