 At the special meeting of the Atlantic association in New York yesterday the Cor coran case was left to President Collins to decide. This seems a strange proceeding. Wilkebarre has no claim on him, even ae- cording te baseball law. The National agree ment says:
 Third.-A player so reserved will be released its membership after the close of a championship s part, other 9 than that of Which it Was previously member.
 When the Wilkesbarre team dropped out of the Central league and entered the Att lantio association it's reserve privilege was destroyed. In not deciding this case the league has shown an unfairness toward New Haven. Corcoran is certainly member of the New Haven team, and will play here.
 The protested Jersey City game was de- eided tie, which betters Jersey Citys posi- ton.
 Walter Burnham's men had no trouble in defeating Spence's boys yesterday afternoon The New Ravens very gracefully presented the visitors with the game, much to the dis gust Of the spectators. Manager Spence should feel proud of the playing his men are doing. Is it hard lucks Not by good deal. It is yellow ball playing. There probably never has been professional team that has made the poor record that the New Ravens have Thnv1 hov r,Io krro ,fxyu% games and won but two. Fine record, in- deed.
 Walker occupied the box and showed that he is good pitcher when he has control of the ball. He was very wild and gave nine men their bases on balls, but only one of been good. He is the best pitcher that has yet been in the box for the New Havens. Only four singles were made off him and three of them were knocked out in the third inning, when two runs were made. That is certainly fine pitching. He pitched game that should have won the game. But as is always the case when winning pitcher IS in the box, the New Havens' playing was very rocky.
 Four single hits for Worcester to seven hits for a total of eleven bases by the New Ravens. Galligan knocked out home run. He can evidently play ball if he wants to. About the only thing about the game was
 
 coaching was splendid and they played ball from the time they came on the field until they left. It was quite different with the New Ravens. Their men on the coach line can't open their mouths.
 Neither side scored in the first, but in the second John Corcoran got in hit, went to second on 8 wild pitch and scored on Walsh's sacrifice and Campion's error. But Worcester came in and made things warm. Annis got his base on balls. Cudworth hit to O'Reurke at short. It was an easy double play, but Fitzgerald didn't see any reason why the New Ravens should win, so he muffed the throw, and balls, and Terrien's base in like manner forced Annis home. Stafford hit to O'Rourke, and as he thought he had been hired by the Worcester management to play ball he threw wild, and by the time the ball got into the diamond Stafford was on third and three men had scored. "Oh, for shortstopi
 Nobody was out, but the next three went out, after Stafford had scored on sacrifice.
 New Haven got another in the third on 8 tumble by Bradley, steal, and two -bagger by Lally.
 Worcester didn't stop. Meister and Annis got in singles and Cudworth got first on balls. Meister was caught at the plate by a "coaxer" from Cahill to O'Rourke. ORourke completed the play by throwing to the plate. Meister in the slide hurt his nose and had to retire. Walsh made nice running catch in this inning.
 Galligan made home run, in the fourth inning and that raised New Ravens stock, but when Worcester came in and made two because John Corceran forgot himself and threw wild, it was way down.
 After this the New Ravens settled down and the Worcesters went out in one, two, three order until the seventh, when hit, followed by sacrifices, brought in 8 run.
 Brady batted we'll, so did Corcoran.
 It was expected that Tommy Corcoran and Burdock would play. The Corcoran case was not settled in time. and Burdock did not feel well enough to go in. The score:
