addressed the crowds standing in close
shooting position. The Americans re-
fused to proceed with the shooting until
order should have been restor-
ed. Every gentleman on the
ground now became q policeman, and
there was great hustling and disorder,
which can hardly be exaggerated. A
delay of thirty-fye minutes resulted
when partial order was restored. At,
the 1000 yards range the Lrish.
dejcctet and nervous, shot wildly,
aud succession OF shots proved to be
merely random. Miner missed his
third shot, the crowd grooming vociter-
oGSly. When he missed his ninth the
uproar on the Irish side oLthc ground
was tremendous. The eleventh shot he
missed also, producing CONSERVATION.
Hamilton scored succession Of threcS,
and blamed the crowd for his
lack of success and everybody seemed TO
be in bad temper. The ropes were broken
by the Irish near the close, Fulton and
Bodine not yet having finished. Fulton
missed the target through the DISORDER,
the crowd cheering, rushed across the
ground causing great confusion. BOdlne
quietly took his position for the last shot,
and the crowd ranged itself along
the line of fire, leaving widen
ing opening toward the targets,
but only wide enough to expose two of
the targets to the view Of the tirer. All
control has been lost over them, but
Bodine lies still and quiet, A putt Of
smoke and the crack Of his rifle, and his
bullet hattens in the bulls eye. \ tre-
mendous cheer is gwen for the Ameri-
cans by the crowd en- masse. The
police stand firm around the teams, and
the crowd on the outside are standing
sturdy and i'll humored, but not towards
the Americans.
Major Leech addressed the Americans
and the surrounding mass and declared
himself beaten, and the AmcricaLs the
first shots in the universe. He then
called for cheers for Colonel
Gildersleeve and his men, which
were not very heartily given,
but when called for by man in the
crowd, they were given with tremendous
enthusiasm, the crowd bursting in 10
shake hands with the Americans and
their ladies, amid vociferous cheering
Col. Gllderslreve called for cheers for the
Irish team, but there came no response
except from the Americans present. All
of the Irish team blame something on
each other, and the whole population Is
positively fierce with them.

and York were on the ground and con-
graduated the victor~.
The Americans were extremely popu-
lar before the contest and are
much more 50 now, and their
calmness, modcsty and seli-rcIiance are
extolled everywhere. The stars and
stripes are displayed from Il thousand
houses tonight, and the streets are
crowded. The popular joke tonight is
that England is right in not allowing
Irishmen TO carry arms since they can
make such poor Use Of them.
