TODAY'S SPORTING NEWS OF INTEREST THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY INTERNAL STRIFE > DISRUPTS MACK MEN Factional Fights May Mean a Sale of All Athletic Players Special to The Telegraph New York, Deo. 7.—internal trou bles of a serious character are said to be facing Manager Connie Mack. Dissension is said to have broketi out in the ranks of the stars, and it may be necessary for Mack to dis pose of all of his great ballplayers before the trouble is rooted out. Old age and overconfldence gener ally will "destroy a Championship ball team, but dissension seems to be the big cause of the breaking up of the grand combination that led the Ameri can League for several years. Age has not caused any of the members of the team to be dropped from the list, but dissatisfaction is behind the efforts of Manager Mack to get rid of Bender and Oldring, the lirst batch of players to be offered for trade or for sale. There is a rumor that the big trou ble in the ranks of the Athletic players is between two factions headed by Ira Thomas and Eddie Collins. Thomas lias been very close to Manager Mack for severay years, and his influence with the leader has been a little too great to please the other members of the team. Thomas <)pposed Collins Collins has also been close to his manager, but the methods of Thomas evidently have been objectionable to some of the players who have sided "with Collins. The fact that Collins has used much inside information in writing his newspaper articles has caused the Thomas faction to oppose him. The fight between Thomas and Collins dates back to last Spring, when the big catcher was elected captain over the star second sacker. Mack is puzzled over the problem of getting rid of the trouble, for it means that he will have to release one or the other of his star men in order to free the team of the internal feud. Doak Is Best Pitcher in the National League "Winning 19 games and losing 6 and having the least number of runs earned off him in nine-Inning games enabled Doak, of the Cardinals, to finish the National League season as the premier hurler of the 1914 cam paign. For a youngster Doak's per formance was startingly effective and his record holds easy comparison with the big stars, Alexander, Tesreau, Salee, Mathewson, James, Hudolph and \ aughn. The young Missourmn * really has a shade on them all. Bill James, of the Braves, finished second with 26 victories and 7 de feats, while Alexander wound up tenth with 27 triumphs and 15 re verses. Mayer, of the Phils, secured 21 wins and 19 loses, while Ben Tin cup grabbed 8 scalps and let 10 slip away. Matteson won 3 and dropped 2, while Baumgartner is credited with 2 triumphs and as many jolts. Cy Marshall won 6 and lost 7, while Eppa Jtixey got the long end twice and fell £liort» 11 times. Most of the work Matteson, Baumgartner, Marshall and ltixey did to earn their stipend was in helping out other Phil pitchers or else ceasing to pitch, 'after starting, iu some other fellow's favor.

MONDAY EVENING, Herbert Reed's Star Team Includes Complete Squad Expert Says Justice Cannot Be Done Without a Regular Line-up I Herbert Reed, of the New York World, has chosen an All-Eastern team. Heed lias been recognized as an au thority on football, and his predictions for the season were fulfilled witli only two exceptions. In yesterday's New York World Reed says: "In selecting an All-Eastern eleven it is inevitable that full justice cannot be done short of twenty-five or thirty men, for that is about the number used by the foremost teams in their big games. With few exceptions I have seen every man chosen for our All-Eastern in action, and I have picked others whom I have not had the opportunity to see on the advice of capable coaches and players. Hardwick, of Harvard, is the great est all-round man playing football. He is a perfect offensive end because of his wonderful individual interfer ence. and a good defensive man whether played in his regular position or in the backfleld." The All-Eastern team picked by Reed is as follows: Ends Hardwick Harvard O'Hearn Cornell Merillot Army Higgins Penn.

Johnson is said to have been signed for the Chicago Federal League club by Joe Tinker, manager, for at least $16,000 a year, while Marquard went to the Brooklyn club of the same league. Johnson may be considered the most valuable pitcher in baseball. It is probable that he would sell for a higher price than any other man pitching. Marquard was bought from Indianapolis by the Giants for SII,OOO. He did not show well in the first sea son, but he made up later, and was rated the greatest pitcher in the country for one season. The signing of these contracts is the answer of the Federal League to the charge of organized baseball that the Federals were on the rocks and would not open the season of 1915. The Federals have signed many other players from both big leagues and the minors of organized baseball. Clark Griffith., manager of the Wash ington club, insists Johnson has no legal right to jump to the Federal League, nniUhat. he will sue for dam j ages.

The plot of the story revolves about "Billy," whose father has been mur dered. "Billy" takes an oath to avenge his death and in the ensuing complica tions becomes an outlaw.
