Text	Pitcher Tyng was released by the Philadelphia Club on Friday on the strength of a telegram received from Harry Wright, who is now with the club in Indianapolis. Tyng was the pitcher of the Staten Island Club, and he had a great reputation among amateurs as an all-around player, but he has failed to fill the bill with the Phillies. … Tyng's contract with the Philadelphia Club is peculiar; in fact he has a double contract. He was signed as a player for one year at the limit, and from that, we suppose, he could be released at any time. His contract as director of athletic sports is separate and for three years at a salary of $1,000 per year and a percentage. It will, we presume, be a difficult thing for the club to squirm out of the latter contract should Tyng be disposed to hold the club to it.
