coneus WHISTLE
WILL NOT BE SILENT
Famous "Bill" 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 busi
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 hits been offered big money to
take a berth with the Feds.
Just what team in the outlaw or
ganization wants Bill could not be
ascertained,. but little busy .Jademoi
selle Rumor has It that the Buffalo
rebels want him very, very muchly;
so muchly In fact that it is hinted that,
they are willing to come across with
a 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
Manila in the way of it all is the price.
Coughlin is a high priced man, and
worth every cent that he asks.

Was Big Surprise
Special to The Telegraph
Palm Beach, Fla., March 11. By
defeating Walter Travis. Garden City,
2-1 in the semi-final of the State ama
teur golf championship of Florida,
Harold Weber, Toledo, furnishes the
! surprise of the season as Travis has
! won all but one tourney he has com-
I peted In here in the last three years.
! Neither competitor played startling

supposed to excel and a falling off in
this department by this veteran that
settled the outcome.
W. R. Simons, Garden City, is the
other finalist, as he defeated W. B.
Langord, a former Yale star, from
I Chicago, by 3-1.

match, by holding his tee shot for a
one at the tenth hole 100 yards. His
partner, H. R. Winthrop, remarked as
the gallery cheered, "Hold on a min
ute, I've got this for a half." Two

heart the best interests of tho as
