Matthew J. McGrath of the New York A. C., broke the worlds record for throwing the 16 pound hammer from seven foot circle Saturday at Celtic park, his dastance being 175 feet s inches. If everything turns out to be correct according to the rules or record making, McGrath's throw wipes away the previous worlds mark of 1T2 feet II inches by John J.

 McGrath is native of the parish or Boher county of Tipperary, Ire- land. and, appropriately enough. the record took place at the Tlppery Mems annual games, which were open and sanctioned by the A.

JOE C0NNOR.
He Will Join the Springfield Team
 To-Day.

Springfield, July 17.--It was joy ful tidings that Manager O'Neil hand ed out when he announced that Joe Connor will become a Pony again.
 Manager O'Neil has been dickering with Malachai Kittredge, manager of the Montreal team, for some days in an effort to secure O'Connor. The Montreal manager wanted to get Tom Stankard in exchange, but was told that the Springfield club is not in the habit of parting with good ball players. He was told at the same time that the club stands ready to procure good ball players where money will get them and a deal was not difficult, as the former Springfield catcher and Malachai Jedediah have not been hitching any too well.
 It was a foregone conclusion this season that there would hardly be room on the same team for Kittredge and a first class catcher as long as Kittredge held the reins. Connor of course chafed under inactivity and welcomes the chance to come back to Springfield, where he has done his best ball playing. He is purchased outright and becomes the absolute property of the Springfield club, ac- cording to Manages' O'Neil.
 Joe Connor came to the Springfield club of the Connecticut league when his brother, Roger, became owner of that club. Jim O'Rourke had claim on his services then and Roger trad ed Frank Beaumont to O'Rourke for Brother Joe. Beaumont didn't like the sandwich atmosphere around the 0Rourke camp, and jumped the Ora tors, but returned to the fold after a season with the independents. Joe Connor came to Manager o'Neil b. special agreement when the present manager took the club.
 He caught splendid ball here in 1904, being strong in every depart. ment of the game. He batted for .311 that year. catching l1S games ac- cordlng to the official records. He essayed third base toward the close of the season as the club couldn't land a good third baseman, and though he didn't pose as a base guardian. did fair work even there He is base runner on the style oi Bill Yale. with fine slide, and is one of the most scientific batsmer the Connecticut league has developed
 In 1905 Connor went with Newark of the Eastern league. His hitting fell of to some extent, his record with the stick in 61 games beine .249. As catcher he fielded for .96; in that year and also played IS game. at first with a fielding average oI .9sS. He finished up the season witf the New York Americans and last year went to the Highland farm Montreal. where he hit for 262 ir 113 games.

Norwich, July 17.-Norwich broke the tie with Waterbury and moved up into third placme in the standing by defeating them, to 0, at Sachem park yesterday. The locals again uncover ed an article of ball that paralyzed the visitors. and when the cheering section opened strong in the sixth. Pitcher Farley and his fielders wobbled in the race, and Norwich tallied five runs, where perfect play would have shut them out.
 The game came to an abrupt and unfortunate ending in the beginning of the second half of the eighth, through injuries to two Waterbury men, Bron- kie and Brogan, in a general mixup on a ball popped up to short right by Accorsini. Ryan from center also chased into the scrimmage, and all three went 0 the ground. Second baseman Brogan caught the ball, but l 1t was knocked from his hands as he went over. Shortstop McEnroe was on the outskirts of the smashup, bue didn't participate,
 Ryan was not hurt, but Brogan was
  out for several minutes from the jar that loosened number of teeth ana Bronkie suffered the worst, wrench ed knee and a strained shoulder that will put him out of the game for while.
 The call was sounded for any doctor ! that happened to be on the grounds and Dr Charles Osgood responded and took look at the injured men. After a short delay, the umpire announced that the game would be called because of injuries to the Waterbury players. The nearest Waterbury came to scoring was in the sixth, when pass and Soffel's poor throw after pickup l put men on first and third with two out, but the third man was fielded out by Soffel.
