Evers Deposed as Manager Of Cubs—O’Day Gets Place.
Johnnie Evers, the Keystone King, for several years the second baseman of the Oubs ball team and last year the manager, has been deposed by President Murphy, of the Cubs, and Hank O’Day, former umpire, will get the place. Evers is angry and says that everything Frank Chance said about Murphy is true. O’Day has not played ball sot a number of years and it remains to be seen whether an umpire can break into big leagues and prove a managerial success.
