English Shooters Cannot Meet Amer
lean ChalIengers at that Time.

LONDON, April 21.-Mr. Gale. secretary
of the Middlesex Gun Club, in the course
of an interview this evening with a repre-
sentative Of the Associated Press regarding
the proposed clay bird shooting match be-
tween English and American teams said:
81 should be grateful IL you will impress
upon the secretary Of the American team
and others interested the utter imprac-
ticabiity of selecting the month of August
for the match. 1t is time when London
is deserted by sportsmen, everybody get
ting away for Aug. u, when the grouse
season opens. In other respects the prep
arations for the match are proceeding
splendidly. At the meeting of the club last
evening little else was, talked of. but the
August date is regarded as fatal. The COM
mittee will meet tomorrow to consider the
challenge. and we would be delighted if we
could hear that the Americans would make
the date as early as possible"

Hut Cincinnati VIII Not Have the
1854 Disaster Repeated.

1854 Disaster Repeated.
CINCINNATI. April H-There has been
more alarm throughout the Ohio valley
to-day on account OF the floods than at any
period since February, 1854. when the Ohio
river reached its highest stage Of seventy
one feet and nine inches at this city. Most
OF the inhabitants of the valley spent the
night in anticipation of the worst flood ever
known in the valley. as they will not know
until tomorrow that the water has begun
falling at Pittsburg. Until this news
reached the river men here tonight it was
feared that the record of 1854 might be
broken. but now it is generally believed
that the river will not exceed the floods of
February, 1897, and Of March, 1885, when it
reached sixty-one feet at Cincinnati.
The present food is the worst that has
ever been known SO late in the spring.
During the first week in April, 1856. the
river reached hfty-fve feet and nine inches
IN this city. and that was the highest water
ever known 80 late in the spring. There
has been no flood in the Ohio valley since
March, lS9S, and these floods have rarely
occurred as late as March, but usually in
February. The Hood will do much more
damage nov than it would have done one
or two months sc
While the close observing river men to-
night are confident that the record OF 1884
will not be broken, unless another noun
tain food soon reaches Pittsburg, yet IL is
evident that much damage will be done be-
fore the present rise Is exhausted. While
the water has begun to fall at Pittsburg,
both rain and snow have been falling
heavily last night and to-day and tonight
eli along the Ohio valley. The danger line
has already been reached at points above

morrow morning. The merchants and
manufacturers in the lower part OF the city

LONDON MONEY MARKET.
Announcement Of the budget Dis
counted by the Brokers.

LONDON, April 21.-With the exception
of American securities. which continued to
be buoyant, the promised increase of ac-
tivity on the Stock Exchange following
the budget announcement was mostly un-
realized. The effect of the budget was
largely discounted by careful operators.
The coal and sugar duties had been con-
sidered inevitable, and brokers are thank
full that they are no worse. The only ap-
preciable offset of the announcement of the
budget was that some operators sold con-
soils down to 94s4, which is the lowest price
since 1891 This low point brought in a
number of buyers. and there was conse-
quently some recovery at a net loss of

The prospectus of the new loan is ex-
pected in day or two. The price prob
ably will be 1895 with discount off. Some
speculative contracts have already been
made at three-quarters premium, whatever
the announced price may be.

RAIsIN SEEDING.
New Occupation for New York woAsa
aud How the work
IL Done.

The public belief that raisin seeds
produce appendicitis has created an un-
usually large demand for seeded raj
sins. Nearly every grocer now carries
a large stock. and several houses make
this their exclusive business. Outside
of the houses the work is done on an
extensive scale by poor women of the
East side. Most of them receive the
raisins from grocers. seed and return
them. receiving small amount per
pound. Those who can afford it use
the ingenious little mechanisms which
have been invented for the purpose,
while the others rely upon a sharp
knife, a steel fork. and their own mus
cular fingers. A few intelligent toll
ers employ clumsy inventions of their
own, favorite one being screen Of
wires through which they force the
seeds, says the New York Post
The work is done in tenement-houses,
and very often in the cellars. Nothing
is allowed to go to waste; the seeds
and the little pulp which is lost with
the latter is put aside until the amount
is five or ten pounds in weight. They
are then placed in barrels. covered with
water, and fermented. The fermenta-
tion changes the fluid into the popular
raisin wine 20 common on the East
side. This time of the year is the
harvest season of the trade. The de-
mand is but moderate in October, il
large in November, and attains the
maximum just before and during the
Christmas holidays. The raisins them
selves are usually classified according
to their size quality. and the purpose
for which they are intended. The best

dessert dainty. The second quality il
used for wedding-cakes, Christmas and
New Years cakes, and the macedoines
popular among our foreign citizens.
The third and poorest class is used for
pies, puddings, cheap cakes, poultry
stufing and the making of sauces.
