GENERAL SPORTING NEWS

Just before President N. =. Young left
here this afternoon for New York, to at
tend the meeting Of the league, he pro-
mulgated the contract Of Danny Coogan
to catch for the Washington club during
the present season. An effort has been
made to discredit Coogan's contract with
the Wagnsrs, and denials have been sent
out to that effect purporting to be author
lied by Coogan.
President Young showed the contract to
a Star reoprter, and remarked that he could
not understand why there should be any
secrecy about the transaction. Coogan's
work behind the bat for the University OF
Pennsylvania has been one Of the features
Of amateur base ball for several years
past, and when 1t was limited that he
might go into professionalism after finish
ing his course at the University Of Penn
sylvania there was a grand scramble for
his services. He Is now a full-dedged MEM
Der Of the Washington club. for his con-
tract was today approved by President
Young, and it will be forwarded to him by
the next mail.

previous statement Of Coogan's having
signed professional contract was without
basis. But, as The Star said two weeks
ago. he had agreed to play here, and it was
understood that the announcement would
be made on the 18th.
Coogan even now Is not elated over his
choice, but thought it was his best oppor-
tunify. He has to depend entirely upon his
own resources for support, and now that

upon the step he has taken.

five feet eight inches In height. and weighs
close on to 100 pounds. He is extremely
"1ry ana nervy, and as active as it Is possible

THE WHIST CONGRESS.

Annual Convention to he Held Mt
indianapolis.
The executive committee of the American
Whist League met recently in Indianapolis
and perfected arrangements for this years
whist congress, which will be held in that
city. The convention will open June IS and
continue through to June y. There will be
six matches-the Hamilton Club trophy
tournament, which decides the champion
ship of the country; the American Whist
League trophy contest, first and second
progressive matches for tours, general pro-
gressive match for pairs and a general
match at straight whist.
While the executive committee was in
session at Indianapolis, the Hamilton Club
OF Philadelphia sent out a team to battle
with the Minneapolis Club for possession Of
the American Whist League trophy held
by that club since the congress last year.
This trophy may be challenged for at in
tervals during the year. The Minneapolis
team had defended 1t successfully against
four western clubs. but they encountered
defeat at the hands Of the Hamiltons, and
the trophy is now in possession of the Phil
adephia club.
Since the trophy has come east the Ham
iltons have been overwhelmed with chal-
lenges, and they will be kept busy for the
next month or two defending it. The clubs
which are going to make fight for it are
from Newton, Mass; Brooklyn, Baltimore,
Washington, Wilmington, Del; Albany,
Easton. Pa, and Philadelphia.
