Magee, loft Holder for the "Phillies."

scenes ever witnessed nt a ball park
In this city when he made an unpro
voked assault upon Umpire Finneran,
The affair happened In the third In
ning of a game with St. Louis, when
with two of the homo players on tho
bases Finneran called Magee out on
strikes.
Mngee hurled his bat Into the nlr In
disgust nnd Finneran ordered him to
the clubhouse. Magee stood still for a
moment and then rushed nt the um
pire. They clinched for an Instant, nnd
Magee stepped back nnd again rushed
forward, giving Finneran n light push
with his right. Magee then swung his
loft with terrific force squarely on
FInnernn's face.
Finneran dropped Mice n log and re
mained on the ground, apparently un
conscious. The players of both teams
were taken so completely by surprise
by Mageo's unexpected assault that it
was some time before they could
move.
Meanwhile Magee remained n few
foot from Finneran, ns If ready to re
new the battle. The players of both
clubs nnd the nsslstant umpire, Itlgler.
ran to the home plate, where Finneran
was struggling to get on his feet.
Finneran, nlthough groggy, managed
to take off ills chest protector and tried
to rush through the group of players
to get at Magee, wbo appeared to be
Just realizing the enormity of his of
fense. Mngee's team mates and the St.
Louis plnyers Induced him to return to
the Phillies' bench, nnd the spectators,
who were beginning to get their
breath nfter the startling episode,
roasted him vigorously.
Finneran nt last fought off the peace
makers and disappeared In the Phil
lies' clubhouse In search of his assall
nnt( but he failed to find Magee.
After Finneran was led Into his
dressing room by Umpire Itlgler tho
latter rcturnod to the Dold and um
pired the remainder of the' game.
When asked what punishment would
bo meted out to Magee for ids offense.
President Fogel said It cost Klcmm
only $50 for striking Manager Bresnn
han. "Now we will see," he said, "what It
will cost a player for striking an um
pire. I understand that when Fin
nernn ordered Magee to the clubhouse
he called Sherwood a vile name. It
was then that Magee struck the um
pire. "However, Mannger Bresnahan of
St. Louis wns right on the spot, nnd I
will take his word for what happened
between the two men."

TAFT DISTURBED.
Is Worried Over -Charges
Against Brother Chiles.
COMPLAINT MADE BY GIRL
Youthful Writer Alleges She Saw "Dick
to Dick" Letter In Alaskan Cod
Land Case, but White House
Fails to Find Trace of It.
Washington, July 11. Au extraordi
nary situation hns developed from the
publication of the so called "Dick to
Dick" letter, purporting to bring thf
name of Chnrles P. Taft, tho presi
dent's brother. Into the Alaskan coal
land controversy.
SIIss St. F. Abbott, n youthful writer,
who was graduated from Badcllffe col
lego only n few years ago, stands
ready to take the witness chair before
a house committee and testify under
oath that she saw the "Dick to Dick"
letter in the Interior department flies
nnd. took It down word for word.
She nlready has laid before the house
committee on expenditures In the In
terior department, which Is Investigat
ing the mnttor, a memorandum she
represents ns her original notes on this
letter.
On tho other hand. Walter Fisher,
tho newly appointed secretary of the
interior, declares nil employees who
have access to the flies deny they over
heard of the letter until SIIss Abbott
published It.
'o-'ho White House, which has been
considerably disturbed over the Inci
dent, nlso discredits the insinuation
that Charles P. Taft took any nctlve
Interest In the. Alaskan coal land situ
ation. The letter Miss Abbott declares she
copied from the records of the depart
ment purports to have been wrltten by
Blchnrd S. Byan, n New York pro
moter who hns been represented,
ngnlnst his protest, ns an ngent of the
Guggenheim syndlcnte. to Blchnrd A.
Bnlllnger. then secretary of the Inte
rior. The letter, ns Sllss Abbott says
she copied It. Is as follows:
.Dear Dick I went to see the president
tlie other day about this Controller bay
affair. The president asked me whom I
represented. I' told him. according to our
agreement, that I represented myself, but
that did not seem to satisfy him, so I sent
iur utmriio .tun ami asiteu nim 10 leu nis
Droiner wno it was i represented. Tne
president made no further objections to
my claim. Yours, DICK.
Political opponents of President Taft
with whom SHss Abbott has been In
close touch seek to Insinuate from this
letter that President Taft wns Influ
enced by hisj brother to withdraw from
the Chuach- forest reserve the land
nlong Controller buy, in Alnska, thus
giving Uyton an opportunity to file his
entries.
Byun did. in fact, enter upon this
land soon after it was withdrawn, nnd
Sir. Taft's enemies hnvo contended
that Byan represented tho Guggeu
helms and that the "grabbing" of this
water front If unchecked would give
them n practical monopoly of the Alas
ka coal lands, ns it was the only plnce
not already hold by them where coal
could be transported to the coast nnd
shipped profltnbly.
Secretary Fisher called at the White
House and went over tho develop
ments with the president, who Imme
diately ordered a search of tho letter
flies, for any communication from
Charles P. Taft concerning the at
tempt of B. S. Byan to secure land on
Controller bay. After a two hours'
search the announcement was mado
that no reference was made in any of
Charles P. Taft's letters to tho presi
dent of Byan, and the president could
not recall that his brother ever had
mentioned the subject to him.
At the instance of the White House,
Charles P. Taft's secretary in Cincin
nati wns instructed to search his let
ter flies for nny communications to
the president or passing between
Chnrles P. Tnft and Byan.
A telegram was received in Wash
ington saying that no mention wns
mado of Byan iu any of Charles P.
Taft's letters on fllo iu Cincinnati.
Charles P. Taft himself Is in Europe
. with his family.
Ashman Brown, former secretary of
Sir. Balllnger nnd who wns retnlnod
for several weeks in thnt capacity by
Secretary Fisher, denies he ever saw
tho "Dick to Dick" letter and also
many statements that are attributed
to him by Sllss Abbott in hor article.
Jllss Abbott says Brown showed her
the Controller bay record nt the direc
tion of Secretary Fisher.
