NEW YORK. Feb. ll'.-The National league agreed tonight to take over the Chicago club's contracts with Johnny Evers. deposed manager of tho club, for the remainder of tho time they are to run. Evers Is to receive the purchase money If he Is sold to any other club. CHICAGO, Feb. 11. Joseph Tinker, man ager of tho Chicago Federal leaguo club, was summoned to New York today by President Wcghmnn. Tho message was not unexplained and gave color to numerous reports that tho Chicago Federals ara seeking to obtain the services of John J. Evers, doposcd mansgcr of the Chicago Nationals. Weghman Is reported to have Inti mated that he would outbid by tS.WO Any offer mado by- another club for the.CUb second baseman. 'Tinker planned to leave for New York, before night. . ' Tho discharge of Johnny Evors as man ager of tho Chicago Nationals, which' was as great a surprise as the dlsrnlssal of Frank Chance In. Wit, probably was planned for months. This became known today when base ball writers recalled an1 Interview with President C. W. Murphy last week, in which. Evers was savor cly criticized. The Interview was not pub lished and although Murphy Indicated he was itlll bitter against Evers becauso he thought him principally responsible for the loss .of the city series last fall, none of tho writers suspected' that Evers was to be depbse'd. ' Mttrnhy Criticises Evers. Last Friday Murphy discussed at some length the, advisability ot having a-bench manager Instead of one playing in the game, and olosod Jils discussion by as serting Evers" bad Judgment had enabled the White Sox to defeat the Cubs In the fall series of 1913. "There are three types of managers," Murphy said, "tho man who manages and Jilays In the games, tho man who manages from the coaching lino and the man who manages from the bench. Chanco was a great man of the first typo, Mcdraw and Callahan are great In tho recpnd and Connlo Mock and Btalllnga are leaders In their style. Evers Is a great ball player, .but too lmpulslvo to be a manager and a player at the same time. "V o should havo beaten tho Whlto Box easily Ias fall. Evers' bad Judgment cost us tho series. Conahan and Gleason both oald after the series that Evers could be thanked for giving them tho big end of tho purso."" i So far as can b learned there has been no recent quarrel between Murphy-and Evrs, but it Is known by those who were In touch. -with Cub affairs .last sea son that Murphy had several ' contro versies' with his" manager and It Is be lieved that only, the success ot the Cuba for the last six weeks-or two "months of the1 sosort- prevented the dlschafgo Of Evers ,at tho end or oven before the closq of 'the season. . . . Mummer In Nnnte Only. Ixing before tho season .was. over Evers confided to some of his friends that ho was manager In name only becauso ho dared make no move of any consequence Without the, sanction of Murphy. He ex plained -that his financial conditions com pelled him to stay where ho was. It la doubtful If Evers knew of his im pending discharge any more than did MAGEE'S Tremendous Price Cutting Sale Off Tho firm of Mngeo & Doemor will hereafter be known us Mngfto's, but this is n Change in nmno only.

When the Federal league became active In December, Even was dispatched about tho country sign ing Cubs. Ho was succersful In signing Vaughn, Lcacr Phllan, Pierce, and per haps two or three others. .There Is not n club In the National leaguo which would not welcome Evers as a player, but few of them would care to pay tho salary ho has been getting, something llko J7.300 a year.

HUSSANE IS BARRING NOBODY Farmer Barns Is Now Having Hard Time to ArraiiKc Matches Uc ennse of Fcnr of This Com Inn: Youngster. Farmer Burns has gene on tho warpath In earnest In his endeavors to persuado some of the wily wrestlers of the country to emerge from, their holes of obscur'ty long enough to glvo Youslff Hussane, Omaha's real champion, a chanco to heavo them on their hacks. The prowess of Hussane In throwing any and all re gardless of weight, strength or crafti ness has thrown fear Into tho hearts of nllcged champions and they are reluctant to take on tho terriblo Turk. When Hussano first entered tho field Farmer Burns was swamped w th offers from wrestlers and their managers. As soon as Youslff dumped' a fow the wrestlers and managers forgot all about Omnha and Farmer Is having trouble to give his man any excitement Jack Turner up In South Dakota wanted to grapplo with ' Hussane early In tho season, 'hut .now he. Is. prone to disregard Burns' offers.'

Charllo Cutler In Chicago has been making vociferous boasts of his own skill, but he doesn't want to test it with JIussane, Westergaard Is another who Is sldc-stcpplng Omaha. Westergaard will wrestle anybody In Omaha, but he Is afraid to chance his reputation with tho Turk. Charllo Gulon ran Into Omaha tho other day long enough to arouse tho Ire of Farmer by stating that ho would back Doo Roller against Youslff. Farmer In stantly yelled. "Bring on the Doo and seo what happens to him." To put em phasis to this howl tho Farmer ofrered to bet that Frank Coleman, Jack Meyers, Charllo Peters or any of the other heavy weights around this city could throw Gulon without too much exertion. Gulon left, but promised to return. He Is ex Pected back In a day or two and soma arrangement! may then be made. Farmer Is very anxious to match Hus sane as ho believes Hussano Is the best In tho land nnd that Is tho opinion of many expert sportsmen who have seen him In action. Burns Is especially nnxlous to get Westergaard here, but all communications rrom either Burns or Charlie Franke are answered to tho ef fect that Westergaard will wrestle any body but the Turk.
