MoRGAN'S OFFER.
Former Georgetown Captain to Play
With Providence

PROVIDENCE, r. l., July 11.-Col. Wen
delschaefer, president of the Providence
Base Ball Club had stroke of good luck
yesterday when as a result of an introduce
ton to Third Baseman Morgan, the crack
infielder of the Georgetown University
team when that team played Brown Uni
versity here in the spring, he received an
offer from the player last night to join the
Providence club.
American and National League teams
have been after this player and Col. Wen
delschaefer Immediately wired back to Nor
gan directing him to join the Providence
club at Montreal at once.
The Providence team has struggled
through the season with an inexperienced
man on third base. and while Poland has
done well under the circumstances, yet the
lack of balance In the infield has been a
heavy handicap. For several weeks endeav-
ors have been made to purchase William
Lauder from the New York Nationals. and
yesterday Manager Dunn had an appoint
ment with Manager McGraw in which 1t
was hoped that the deal for Lauder could
be clinched. Morgans offer to join Provi-
dence was snapped up regardless of the
success or failure of the Lauder deal.
Morgan is an exceptionally fast third
baseman. He is also good batsman and
has speed on bases. which. coupled with
good judgment. makes him a good run
getter. The good fortune by which Nor
gans coming to the Providence club was
brought about was due to Providence
boy. Tom Mcdonnell. who Is a student at
Georgetown and Is a chum of Morgan.
1t was Mcdonnell who introduced Nor
gan to Col. Wendeischaefer and he has
urged upon Morgan the advantages Of join
ing a minor league team that Is playing
as fast ball as Providence has been doing
under Manager Dunn. But for this 1t Is
probable that Morgan would have accepted
an offer from one of the major league
teams The decision Is doubtless wise
one for the player. for the experience that
he will acquire in a fast minor league team
will be invaluable to him later in the big
league.
