The fourth annual congress of the New Jersey Whist Association was opened Thursday afternoon at the Jersey City club house. and the following officers were elected: T. E. Otis, president; George T. Rogers, vice president; W. E. Scudder, treasurer, and G. A. Arrowsmith, secre- tery. New Jersey has done much for the betterment of the game, and the intense interest taken in whist throughout the state is due more to President Otis than any other man. The contiguity of the dif- ferent clubs in and around Jersey City, Newark, Brooklyn, New York, Mount Clair, has made it easy for the mammoth meetings which have so successfully taken place in the recent matches at New York. ‘D' SPORT The Washington Horse Show. Will Be At- tractive in Both, Many Well-Kijown EShjMitors ‘Intena to Participate, and the Fashion- able World is Expectant, ‘The interest in the approaching Washing- ton horse show, which will be held in Con- vention Hall May,4, 5, 6 and 7, is growing steadily, and the indications are that it will be an event of considerable magnitude, both in a social and g sporting sense. While it is too early for entries to be re- ceived, the leading exhibitors at the New York and Pittsburg shows have promised to come, while there will be a fine repre- sentation from the south and west. The correspondence of Secretary Frederick May and Manager Harry Field shows a wide- Spread desire on the part of horse owners and exhibitors to learn all the details nec- essary for them to prepare ‘themselves for the event, and In society circles the anima- tion is pronounced. It is confidently be- lieved that the boxes, which will be put on Sale next week, will be all engaged in a very few days thereafter, and there is no dc ubt that the fashionables who will occu- py them will prove to be as great an at- traction to the general public visiting the show as the horses themselves. Manager Harry Field returned to Wash- irgton yesterday from New York. Ho was accompanied by Mrs. Field and his brother Alred, who arrived from England cn the St Paul Saturday. Mr. Alfred Fisld has assisted at many of the horse shows in England, including the great national held annually at the Crystal Palace in London, and will doubtless be a valuable aid to the local event. Manager Field saw a number of horsemen while in New York and re- ports a very lively interest in the Wash- ington show. W. Stanton Elliott will be here with sev- eral of his renowned jumpers and is hope- ful that he can also bring Gen. Warren M. Healy’s celebrated high-jumping bay geld: ing, Islington. In the high-stepping and carriage-horse classes, and especially in the appointment classes, Mr. Hexter of Hexter and Strauss will show a number of entries, and Aurel Batonyi, the celebrated Austrian whip, will have charge of the stables of Official Base Ball Guide. “Spalding’s Official Base Ball Guide” has just been issued as the March number of Spalding’s athletic library and consists of everything relating to the national game. A resume of the campaign of 1807 in the National League gives very full particu- lars of wkat each club did as the season progressed.

As Manager Se- jee of the Boston club has said, “Jack Doyle will never go behind your back and talk abcut you.” If he has any grievance he comes right out with it, and for this reason the cenference between the two was eminently successful and of short duration. Doyle told Mr. Wagner whet he thought he was worth, and, after a little wordy sparring, his figures were acceded to. Doyle Pleased With the Senators. After signing, Doyle aired his opinion about the Brush resolution and intimated that it was aimed at Tebeau, Joyce and himself. Mr. Wagner being on Brush’s side, easily convinced Jack that he was wrong and that all he had to do was to leave the umpire alone and play ball. Doyle said he couid easily do that, and then shifted his talk to throwing bouquets at the senatorial asgregation. He says he is personally acquainted with almost all the Washington players and said the aggrega- tion looked very strong to him. Of Amole, Doyle spoke very highly, saying that the former would improve on his Baltimore record and undoubtedly win maay games tor the Washington club. Amole’s ability to make the base runners hug their bases will prove a great factor, as, with the splendid catchers backing him up, stealing bases will be almost an impossibility. Another pleyer that Deyle took the op- portunity to speak well of was Dinneen, and advised Mr. Wagner to get him into the senatorial fold as soon as possible. Deyle says that he has taken every oppor- turity possible to find out about the Ca- nadian twirler and he has yet to run across the player who has seen Dinneen at work who did not predict a bright future for him. Doyle left for home immediately after his confererce with Mr. Wagner, and will report at National Park scme time tomor- rew and will immediately get down to hard work with the rest of the boys. Frank Snyder, the catcher, was tele- graphed his railroad fare last night and immediately left for Washington, arid will be_here this evening. Tom. Kinslow, the well-known local base ball player, tossed his satchel containing }is uniform into the club house this morn- irg, and will practice with the boys during the preliminary season. Tom is a litle overweight, but feels confident he can train down and be able to do as good work as ever. Kinslow has always been a first-class catcher and hitter, and should he round to his old-time form there are about half a dozen clubs in the big league that can use him to great advantage. Kinslow and G Weyhing immediately started “fanning,” both being members of the Brooklyn Brotherhood teara in 1890, and each told many humorous stories. One in particular Gus told on himself. The Brooklyns were playing in Buffalo, and one or two games separated them from the championship. The Bridegrooms claimed that Umpires Snyder und Jones were given them the worst of their rulings, and Kins- low, who was in the grand stand with Gus, began to yell all sorts of epithets at the arbitrators. “Down came a policeman on the run,” said Gus, ‘and grabbed me by the coat collar and yanked me out of the seat and then out of the grounds. He was a strap- ping big fellow, and, of course, I had to go, notwithstanding I told him he had the wrong man. When he found out who I was he apologized, but said I should re- main outside the grounds a short while. “As soon as I came back Kinslow began again, and down came that policeman, and again he yanked me, and this time almost threw me into the patrol wagon and landed me at the station house. Peopie around me in the stand tried to explain the true state of affairs, but the ‘cop’ wouldn't have it. As I was.about giving up my roll of money and watch to the station captain, in walked Kinslow and Captain Ward, and my release was soon secured. After’ that when not playing Kinslow could never persuade me to witness the game by his side. He was too big and 1 was too little. The ‘coppers’ have a good eye and know how to pick out the easy ones.” TO PLAY ETTE. First Game of the Catholic University ‘Tomorrow. The Catholic University base ball season will open at Columbia Athletic fleld tomor- row afternoon at 3:30 o'clock with Lafay- ette College. This is also Lafayette’s first geme. This is the third year of base ball history at the Catholic University, and from indications it will be by far the most successful. The personnel of the nine has undergone considerable change. The entire infield is new. The men playing the infield positions are all clever. Green at third base aud McCarrich at short stop are par- ticularly strong, quick players.. The bat- teries will be far superior to any hitherto. McTighe is pitching in excellent form, and even better work than last year is ex- pected. Last year he struck out fifteen on Lafayette’s team. In the Lehigh Univer- sity game he struck out twenty-three. gan has developed into an experienced twirler, has speed and curves and will ably supplement Capt. McTighe in the box. The team comprises: McTighe, pitcher; Regan, pitcher; T. O’Brien, first base; I. Burns, second bace; McUarrich, short stop; Greene, third base; J. J. O’Brien, left field; Jago, center field; Boulton, right fleld; McGraw, catcher. ~ SAENGERBUND AGAIN WINNERS.

The race which the Central High School crew will enter at Philadelphia July 4 is the star attraction of the scholastic regat- ta. Among the entries are the fastest pre- paratory school crews in the country, and if the local youngsters’ expectations are realized the endre Washington public will have good reason to share their rejoicing and be proud of their success. The cham- pionship last year was won by the Worces- ter (Mass.) Academy eight in record time. The New England boys are conceded to be faster than many college crews. As they have nearly all the same oarsmen as last year, and are said to have shown consider- able ‘improvement on their previous speed and form, the difficulty of the Central crew’s task can be appreciated. But Coach Heckox is much pleased with the progress of the candidates, and while not expressing his sentiments publicly, is confident that the boys’ chances are good. Charles D. Young, the manager of the crew, has been widely known in High School athletics for three years. He is the fastest of Washington scholastic sprinters and is considered one of the best school- boy runners in the country at his distanc 1n the District championship meet last year he won the 220-yard run quite handily in record time and ran second in the 100-yard run by half a yard, also in record time. He has done the shorter distance two-fifths of a second faster than the local record, but as this performance was in a closed meet the record did not count. Young was alsc a member of the Central High School relay team, which won the scholastic relay championship of the United States at Phil- adelphia last year. The management of the foot ball was in his charge this sea- son and he also has command of Com- pany A, High School Cadets. Captain Philip Ballinger, "98, is not a newcomer in the field of athletics. Since 1896 he has been an active member of the Central track team and was also on the foot ball eleven. Last year Ballinger rowed quite a good deal, being considered one of the best oars in the Columbia Athletic Club. He will very probably stroke the Central crew, in which case the local boys should pull to victory. The captain rows a very clean, graceful stroke, somewhat similar to the famous Courtney stroke. When on the Central track team, Captain Ballinger was an 880-yard runner, and gave promise of becoming a very fast man at the distance. Speaking yesterday of the prospects of the crew, the captain said that while he did not care to claim too much, he believes the men under his charge will make a credita- ble showing. “There are some very good men tra‘ning for seats in the shell,” h sa5 nd when we get on the river they very much improve on their present Fast WAR IN ATHLETICS. Secretary Sullivan Predicts It and Says His Union Will Win. ‘The protest of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association against the arrogance of the governing powers of the Amateur Athietic Union appears to have had no effect. Sec- retary J. E. Sullivan of the Amateur Ath- letic Union received yesterday the resolu- tion adopted by the executive committee of the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. on the question of registration. It was duly &e. Note the location—418 Ninth. “THE ONLY GENUINE HUNYADI WATER.

As to the final outcome of the contro- versy Sccretary Sullivan said: ‘Why the Intercollegiate Association should demand that its athletes be exempt from registration any more than they are how, puzzles me, to say the least, for in the first place, we have an alliance with the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. We give them the right to hold open meets under their own rules. “So far as I am concerned, I see no rea- son in the world why the Amateur Athletic Union should agree to the resolution. It would indeed be nad legislation to grant to the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. this con- cession and not grant it to the other active members of the Amateur Athletic Union and its allied interests. I feel firmly con- vinced, however, that the Amateur Athletic Union, through its board of governors, should take action at once, and I am in favor of not receding one inch from the Stand taken by us already. Although I am only one member, I will use my ih- fluence and personally advocate paying no attention whatever to this demand from the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A., for the reason that it is ridiculous for them to as- sume for an instant that they can dictate to the governing body as to what it should or should not do. If the Intercollegiate A. A A. A. had passed a resolution demand- ing that the rule be abolished entirely, there would have been some sense to it, ‘but when they assume that they are so powerful that they alone can secure ex- emption from the registration rule, it is ridiculous. The Amateur Athletic Union is the governing body in athletics, and will not submit to dictation from one of its allied members. If it did, it would forever lose the respect of that organiza- tion, and, in fact. all the other organiza- tions that now look up to it. “The final outcome of the whole question, I think, will be an athletic war. It will mean the formation of another association. There are now many that claim the Ama- teur Athletic Union does not fill the bill, and for that reason an athietic war would bring a lot of people into sport that are not interested now. Of course, the better asso- ciation would win, and it would no doubt be a more powerful organization than we have today. “The registration rule as it exists today was enacted by one of the largest and most representative meetings ever held by any national athletic governing body. The
