There appears to be considerable ill-feel-
ing over the result of the tournament.
Knapp, of Denver, was in a very ugly mood,
to-day, claiming still athat Prince purposely
got him into a pocket, and thus allowed
Reading to win. The local papers nearly all
lean toward this view, and, although not
openly accusing Prince of trying to defeat
Knapp, assert that 1t was q case of Jockey
ing" Knapp wants to ride Prince, or any
or all of the others, for $1,000, and it is
likely that another match will be arranged
before long, possibly at Denver. Morgan
is also angry at the decision of the judges,
which placed him behind Prince. There
was hardly two inches between them at the
finish, and the judges declared that Prince
was ahead
There was considerable talk in sporting
circles To-Day to the effect that Knapp would
dispute the giving up of the stakes to Read
ing tomorrow, but Knapp would not talk on
this point. Mr. Ingram said this evening
that he did not see how there could be any
dispute over the judges decision, no matter
what Knapp or the local papers said about
Princes action. There was no proof of un-
fair action, and the judges decision will
probably stand. There was considerable
yelling by partisans in the audience at the
time Reading forged ahead, and much hiss
ing when the decision of the judges was

Reading WINS the Race.
CHICAGO, May l0.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. THE prediction of bicyclists was
verified last night, when Ned Reading, the
soldier boy from Fort Omaha. finished first
in the six-day professional bicycle contest at
the exposition building. His steady, plucky
work had been regarded with much favor all
along, and many have said he would be up in
front at the finish. Early in the evening
Reading, who was lap behind Wilbur f.
Knapp, of Denver, made magnificent squirt,
and, passing Knapp, soon left the latter a lap
behind. The positions thus gained were
maintained to the end. When Reading dashed
past Knapp he was greeted with thunders of
applause. The finish, while very good, could
hardly be called exciting, the men being
nearly exhausted by their hard work,
as most of the time the weather was,
oppressively warm. Therefore, while the
riding was hard, there was not much spurt-
ing toward the close, Readings effort being
practically the last Knapp claims that he
was beaten by being kept in a pocket by the
other riders while Reading was squirting,
but not many can be found who take sides
with hIn. Schock was virtually out of
the race for two days past on account of the
injuries he received by falls, ana he looked
very poorly at the finish
Nearly $4,000 people were in attendance.
The amateur races were very good AT the
close of the professional race Prince and
Morgan were not more than two inches
apart, with the advantage in favor of Prince.
