 SPRINGFIELD, Jan. 2.-The New Ravens
 came here tonight with Reed, their new goal
 tend, but even he could not stop Springfield from winning, to 3. It was probably thought when Reed was signed that he would save New Haven from losing. To-nights game shows there is a screw loose somewhere else than at goal. Reed played brilliant game, making twenty-eight stops, while Riley made twenty-six. Connors and New comb rushed well. Hill played center for visitors. The Spring6elds simply outplayed the New Ravens. That's the whole story. New Haven lost goal by fouls. The score:

Judge Pardee,s Condition.

Dr. Anderson, the attending physician up- on Judge Pardee, not Dr. filling, as the types erroneously had it, said yesterday that Judge Psrdees condition remained substsn- tially unchanged. While Judge Pardee is a very sick man the doctor does not yet abandon hope in the case. Judge Pardee has been in delicate health for ten years past. He, about ten years ago, made trip to southern climes and later went to the Bermudas. He also made various other ex- tended journeys for his health and with good results, but he did not fully recover his for. mer yiRor.

New Goal Tend.
 Lstions yesterday received his release from the New Haven polo team, as "Stub" Reed of last seasons Salems and formerly of the New Ravens, will take his place. This move was entirely unexpected, and frankly speak- ing, it was the saying about the city yester> been made SO far this season. I.ations will leave with the good will of all who love polo. He is hard, conscientious player and has done his best for the success of the team. He played magnificent game Tuesday night, making twenty eight stops, and "Aull" Smith of Meriden sat in the press stand and cheered him all the way through. "Are they going to let that man go?" asked "Mull." One great trouble is that Phelan has played so close to the cage that if ball got by him La tions did not have time to see it and 50 did not move. This carried the impression to some that he was & stick John Smith told the writer some time ago Phelan was playing too close to the cage. He said he would not allow Conway to get any where near him. Lat1ons said to COURIER reporter yesterday: "Yes, am going to leave. I have done my best to please the people. But have been shamefully treated. Monday night after the game went to di- r6CGOr, WQO IS 6 neHDer or the players com. mittee, and asked if the rumor was true that Reed was coming here. He assured me there wasn't word of truth in it, and that cer- tainly would not be released. I said if would have to go wanted few days mo- tice, so that I could make other arrange ments. Immediately after telling me this the director and others tslegraped for Reed to come. After Tuesday nights game, with- out 2 minutes notice, was told I was not wanted. This morning was given a half weelss' salary, although have played three games. I objected, but didn't get any more, but I had earned 1t. Then there was an objection to giving me my release, but didn't intend to be made sucker of, for if I got into another team and played we'll New Haven might make me come back. made them give me my release in black and white. Vixen first came here I was sick and did not play well. To-day I am in the prime of condition and am playing as good polo I ever played with the New Bedfords. Just as get in the pink of condition am released and given not moments warning to make any other engagement. But can tell you the reason must leave. It is because one man has squeered' me. I have always be- friended him. If the New Ravens win an other game this season they will be doing well. When Valiant was captain there was the most perfect harmony. Now there is dissepsiOn"

WHEAT TENDS DOWNWARD. Chicago Bears Knock Prices Down
 Between ? and Cents.

.
 CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-To days break in wheat was, so far could be learned, the result of local causes, although the shutting down of five of the leading mills at St. Louis and other bsarish news may have had something to do with it. Several of the big commission houses and most active brokers began slug ging the market viciously from the very start and the market was fairly deluged with of ferings. May opened at $1 1.07ss; sold up to s1.074 with considerable trading at $1. OTIS. The market held steady for time and then $1.07X and broke again, this time going to $1.045s. The last quotation for May was S1.0453. The tone of the market at the close was that of extreme nervousness rather than either dissinctively strong or weak. As com pared with Monday, the close shows . shrinksge of a1s cents for January, 21 for May and 11a cents for July. The range for the day was 3k cents for Nav
