WHISTERS Opening of the Congress in Philadel- = phia, Over Forty Clubs Have Significd Their Interest—Representatives of Washington Present. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., 27.—The woman’s whist congress is in session in this city. The election of officers, the by- laws of the association, the selection of committees, are all perfected in a business- Nke manner, and are after the order of the American Whist League. Mrs. Andrews (with a like share of cred't to several other prominent members, not- ably of the committee) is ihe head and front of this greai organization. In order to perfect arrangements she entertained the comi her residence last night ‘Mayor Warwick was present, and with . propriate words welcomed the repre tives of the congress. President Walte Barney made an eloquent appeal in behalf of the success of the league. Mr. Milton C. Work, the able exponent of whist ideas, made some fitting remarks, as did Mrs. Townsend, who wes warmly applauded. The ington representative on the committee, Mrs. Hawley, made a practical address in regard to the new ozganization. The other guests were Miss Moore of Denver, Miss Stringfellow of Ricnmond, Va., Mrs. Waldo Adams of Boston, and Miss Biddle cf Detroit. The meeting was called to order at 11 am. at the Hotel Walton, whore over 400 seats had been arranged on tie top floor for the accommodation of the members The prizes are eighteen in number—four from the Trist Whist Club, two from the Cavendish Whist Club, individual prizes for pair making the highest score, the Sarah Battle Whist Club prize, a beautiful vase of solid silver, with engravings, with room for the winners’ names and the initials A. D. W. carved, Mrs. Wetherall being the donor. The Washington Woman's Club prize is a solid silver shield engraved with the na- ticn’s Capitol on the right border. It is twelve by fourteen inches, solid silver, and to be played for Thursday afternoon. Twenty-eight teams of four have already signitied their intention of playing for this trophy. One hundred and_ twenty-five pairs have entered for the mixed doubi the contest taking place Tuesday and Wed- nesday evenings. Forty-one clubs have sent representatives or letters indicating their desire to join the organization. The Washington contingent are not all here. Mrs. Andrews says the playing of Mrs. Lieut. McCrea is marvelous—never a fe)ter or a hesitancy as to the card she is to select. She played at the Cavendish last night with a member of the Balti- mcre Whist Club as a partner and made a fine showing. Milton C. Work, with Mrs. Toulmire as a partner, will be near the winners, if not the winners, of the mixed doubies. Crea, with Mr. Bristol of the Club, will have many tricks to their earned by brilliant play. The captain of the Baltimore Club, with Miss Dalam of Baltimore, will not be far away, with B. W. Smith, the editor of the whis the Baltimore News, with the sister of Captain Whelan’s partner, while Mr. and Mrs. George Thomas of Baltimore are net to be overlooked. Mrs. Waldo Adams the strongest lady have a good partner, dent and a disciple of Bouve, the whist editor of the Boston Transcript, whose essays 0a the management of trumps, and when to finesse are masterpieces of whist literature. Mrs. Hawley wili give a good account of her score, as she is a keen observer, and not hedged in by conventional leads. Madame’ De Sibour is another stroug Washington player, whose interest neve flags until the last card is played. Mrs. Earle has an enviable reputation as a whist player, beginning at fourteen years, schooled by her father in the intricacies of the game. She is at home with the strongest players. Mrs. Pilling is another good player, having formerly p'ayed with Milton C. Work, and schooled since by such players as Wooten, Low and Barick (who were expected to play at this congress in the mixed double contest). She 1s a close obs*rver of the fall of the cards and is up to all the strategies of the game. Mrs. Walls, a prominent teacher of whist, Hwill give some of the talent a_surorise. She is a close reader of the cards, knows the short suit defense thoroughly and finesses as deep as Cavendish in trumps. Mr. Safford of Washington is her partner in the mixed doubles, and is a strong tour- lament player. Miss King’s team of four found it incon- venient to be present. They are a strong team, and would have done credit to the capital city. The play of tournament whist for two or three days will be a severe strain on many of the players. The play is expected to be of the highest order. Boston, considered yer in Boston, will She is a whist stu- UPHELD THE STAI Conclusion of the Leng Controversy at the Emergency Hospital. Despite efforts to keep the matter quiet, it bas become generally known that the board of directors of the Central Dispensary and Emergency Hospital, at a meeting held last week, adopted the report of a majority of a committee of five which had been created to inquire into the differences ex- isting between Dr. James Kerr and the ether members of the staff of the institu- tion. It will be well remembered that the members of the staff about a year’ ago adopted a resolution requesting Dr. Kerr to resign as a member of the staff and of the board of directors. Dr. Kerr refused to resign without being investigated. The board of directors accordingly then ap- pointed a committee to investigate the mat- ter. It consisted of Mr. Henry F. Blount, Mr. Henry L. West, Dr. Joseph Taber John- son, Mr. Chas. J. Bell and Mr. T. W. Smith. The first three named joined in a report which upheld the position of the staff and approved the recommendations contained in the resolution of the staff calling for Dr. Kerr’s resignation. ‘The rumors growing out of this action have taken the shape of an assertion that the board of directors had declared Dr. Kerr's position vacant, but this is not cor- rect. The whole matter rests upon the board to be elected at the annual meeting next Friday, Dr. Kerr’s term as a director expires at that time, and unless he is re- elected his connection with the hospital will cease of itself.

Justice of the Peace Sloan at Media, Pa., yesterday afternoon discharged from cus- tody Leslie Pearce and ail the other de- fendants arrested as a result of the box- ing bout at the Olympia Club at Athens last Tuesday night, when “Bigy” Vernon or Vollmer of Haverstraw, N. Y., was knocked out in the fourteenth round and died two days later. Many witnesses were examined, but Justice Sloan decided that the evidence was insufficient to show that Vernon's death was caused by a blow given by his opponent in the ring of the Olympic Club.
