C0UCH[|N' WHISTLE
. WILL NOT Be SILENT
Famous ''BilP' Has Offers From
Scranton and the
Federals

Bill Coughlin will not quit baseball
this season. This statement was made
in the Telegraph some time ago, fol-
lowing an interview with the former
Allentown manager. Later on friends
OF Coughlin insisted that the "old
scout" would stick to the hotel bus-
ness at Scranton and was done with
baseball.
Now comes the news that Bill
Coughlin, erstwhile Washington cap
tain and third sacker, Detroit third
baseman, Tri-State star. Allentown
manager and hotel manager may ac-
cept the third sack guardianship on
the Scranton team during the 1914
season. Coughlin may also get into
the Federal League, in fact a letter
received here to-day intimateS that
Bill has been offered big money to
take berth with the Feds.
Just what team in the outlaw or
gahization wants Bill could not be
ascertained, but little busy .Iademoi-
Selle Rumor has it that the Buffalo
rebels want him very, very muchly;
so muchly in fact that it is limited that
they are willing to come across with
large bale of the lucre of the land,
the kind for which the Feds are noted.
But those who are close to Bill state
that he takes very kindly to the pro-
position made him by the Scranton
officials, and it is a good bet without
making any kind of guesses that if
the Miner promoters come anywhere
in reach of Coughlin's figures he will
pass UP the Buffalo bidders and nail
the imperial Coughlin coat of-arms
on a Scranton parchment.
And the only thing, it is said, that
stands in the way of it all is the price.
Coughlin is high priced man, and
worth every cent that he asks.
