THOMAS PITCHES BOTH GAMES
Bucking Machine for Harvard's Warriors
'All the Time that He Was on the
t ' Hill He Allowed No Free Trans
portation and Held the Enemy
to Eleven Hits.
ST. JOSEPH. Mo.. Sept 29.-(Speal
Telegram.) Forest Thomas, the St. Jo
seph pitcher, gave a wonderful exhibition
of twirling today and defeated Omaha In
a : double-header, the dual victory giving
St. Joseph second place In the Western
league race.
Thomas allowed but eleven hits In the
eighteen Innings and did not pasa or
walk a batter.
The game was marked by remarkable
f'eif"nir bv both clubs, but catches by
Kelly and Coyle tn the outfield nd bv
Melnke- In the intfeld deserve special
mention.
Hall started the first game for the
. visitors, but was hit rather freely and
was jerked in the third inning after two
were out. Hicks finished the game and
also twirled the last one. He was h:t
rather freely at critical times.
Powell's double and Watson's single
gave the locals their first run in the ini
tial inning. In the third Powell walked
with one down, stole second and reached
third on Watson's out. He scored on
Zw lllng's hit, the latter reaching third
on Rellly's single. Then Hicks was In
serted and Btopped the rally.
Two more were added in the seventh
on a base on balls, a single and Rellly's
double,
The only Omaha run was made In the
third on singles by Justice and Coyle and
Kelly's error.
At no other time did an Omaha run
ner reach third base. Two runs in the
first inning on hits by Powell and Wat
son, a sacrifice fly and Arbogast's error
clinched the second game for the locals.
Clean hitting added a run each of the
last three innings. Omaha reached third
but once, it being in the first inning,
When Thomason doubled and Johnson
singled in the opening round.

Chance Ready to Sign,
But Murphy Says No
CHICAGO, Sept. 29,-Frank Chance,
manager of the Chicago Nationals, said
here today he had received no official
noti-atlon that he had been deposed
from that position by Charles W. Murphy,
president of the club, and that he was
ready to sign a contract to manage the
Cubs next year. Murphy said there was
no likelihood of Chance being retained as
manager.
"I stand exactly on what I have said
before," said Mr. Murphy. "There is no
change in the situation. My edict re
garded drinking by the Cubs and the an
nouncement that lift. Chance will not be
manager next year stands Just as first
expressed."
Chance said he had nothing to retract
of his vigorous repudiation of charges
that hud come to his ears that drinking
habits among the Cubs had lost games
for the team.
"Mr. Murphy called me up to ask after
my health as soon as I reached home,"
but 1 did not talk to him

'I still hold my snares In the Chicago

total stock, which is valued at 8800,000,
and rate my shares at 880,000. During the
years that Murphy haB held the office
of president the team has earned more
than 11,000,000, but now he has the nerve
to turn against the fellows the minute
they run into hard luck and fail to land
a peanant every season.
"A club owner better skilled ln diplo
macy than Murphy would not have
humiliated his players and dampened
their enthusiasm by holding them up to
contempt as drunkards throwing away
their chances."
Chance said he was going to rest up
at his California ranch and would stick
to base ball. He has three big league
contracts offered him at attractive terms,
he said.
