INGRAM BUYS CORCoRAN.

Manager McGraw of the New Yorks yesterday completed deal with the Cincinnati club for Tommy Corcoran. the veteran shortstop. The players release was bought outright. but McGraw would not name the amount. He said he expected to use Corcoran in the infield, whether as second baseman, shortstop or utility man he did not specify. Corcoran is an old stager in the base ball busi- ness and before going to Cincinnati was member of the Brooklyns in the old Eastern park days. He is a fair hitter, not much of a base runner and an excellent fielder. He always has been pretty good pinch hitter. and in the field one of his best quali- ties is good judgment in knowing what to do with the ball and in put ting through plays.

New York Police Investigate Contest
 Whispers of Fake Sport Heard.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Deputy Pc lice Commissioner Mathot vent to Madison Square Garden and made a thorough inspection of the riders their quarters and the crowd at the 50 called six day bicycle race. It was rumored that Commissioner Bingham had re- ceived several complaints from prom inent citizens stating that the race was a disgrace to the city.
 When General Bingham was told by reporters of several things that had happened at the garden he said:
 T know it has been getting worse and worse, but had no idea that con ditions were so bad as that"
 It is said that the actions of the gangs of toughs in the early morning hours are absolutely unprintable. Nev- CT in the history of the garden have so many complaints been filed at the Tenderloin station of the thefts of overcoats, jewelry and other personal property
 There is strong suspicion that the riders are making things as uninterest- ing as possible. Many of the men are disgusted at the action of the manage ment and may quit at any minute.
 Trouble has been brewing since a bad spill. which called for loud pro test from the spectators. occurred.
 For the eighth time Bobby Walthour and Jobn Bedell were prevented from regaining the lap they lost through an accident early in the contest. Seven riders went down. and the.r race was suspended for an hour.
 The trouble was caused by Joe Fo- gler, team mate of Eddie Root. who fell from his wheel as Bedell was making a seemingly successful effort to re- gain the coveted distance. The big crowd thought Fogler fell intention ally and was instantly in an uproar. groaning and hissing, and some of the more frenzied even making threats against Fogler's life. There were cries or rake. "I)irty work and Fraud and the officials could not stop the demonstration.
 There was a ripple of excitement when fast sprint was started by Root. closely followed by Mcfarland The result was the loss of lap by Nanderstuyft and Stol and Calvin and Wiley.
 A late score for the eight leading teams was 2.l07 miles 6 laps. which is over 900 miles behind the record.

THE DIAM OND  THE UMPIRE
 IN JAPAN
Ha. Ais Trouble. A. in Americs Some Deals Put Through
 and Notes of Game.

We very much regreat to learn, says the Nan Fang Pao, that the baseball game between the teams of the St Johns college and the Tung- wen kuan (Japanese) which took place last Saturday afternoon on the drill ground near the Kiangnan arsenal turned out to be most dis agreeable affair. It appears that dur ing the first inning, while the St Johns college boys were batting, one of them came in on hit by one of his fellows, but this run was. disal- lowed by the Japanese on the ground that the runner did not touch the third bag.
 The umpire, however, decided that the run was fair in accordance with the latest American baseball rules. This the Japanese players persisted in disallowing, and finally. failing to persuade the umpire over to their views, they took up the bases and broke up the game. Thereupon the umpire declared the game as having been won by the St Johns college team at score of 9 to o, according to American baseball rules governing such cases, and that this score would be duly recorded
 At this the Japanese players and spectators kicked up rumpus, and detaining the bicycle of the umpire refused to let him depart unless he reconsidered his decision and altered his verdict To this demand the um- pire could not see his way to accede, With the result that a long and tedi- ous barley followed. during which the Japanese crowd created loud uproar. rendering the situation most unpleasant to all concerned.
 Finally the umpire was allowed to depart with his bicycle without fur ther molestation. he having told the Japanese that the position of umpire was forced upon him by them, and that consequently his decision must, be accepted as final.
 In another accodnt 1t Is stated that some foreign ladies present were very rudely jostled.
