SEA GIRT, N. j., September 8, 1901.
After one Of the most exciting finishes
Of the tournament, the New jersey team
late yesterday afternoon succeeded in win
ming the Interstate military match by a
margin Of two points over the District Of
Columbia. By doing 50 New Jersey pre-
vented Washington from making a clean
sweep of the team matches.
At the conclusion Of the firing yesterday,
when the District men had gathered in
everything that up to that time had been
placed in competition, something in the
way Of feeling developed against the vic
tortous rifemen. A captain Of the New
York delegation remarked in the hearing
testants, Those hogs from the District Of
Columbia won't be satisfied unless they get
everything" Even the governor Of New
Jersey said few words to the effect that
thing except the Sea Girt range, anC .lln-
doubtedly would take that away II 1t was
movable On top Of all this. the members
Of the District detachment do not appear
to be at all disappointed. They would have
liked to have won the interstate match,
they say. but add that for the sake of the
meeting and in the interest Of good feeling
all round 1t was just as well that Jersey
ton trophy and the first prizes in all the
other team matches except the interstate
will be carried to Washington. anyhow.
Pleased at Defeat.
With no desire to smooth over the fail
ure of the District team to win out yes
terday afternoon, 1t really looks as though
the Washingtonians are rather pleased than
otherwise over the defeat Whether or not
Major Bells men, by a display Of more
zeal, could have added to their total by
three points and in consequence have won
lecture. AS it was, the District guards
men surpassed the previous highest record
in the match made by Pennsylvania In the
year 1892 by twenty-one points. Jersey
beat Pennsylvania's record by twenty
three points.
Great was the interest among the spec
tators at the end-up of the match. Jer-
sey and the District were tied at the end
Of the first stage. Jersey was the first to
finish at the second and last stage. The
District had then eight shots to fire, and
1t was whispered that all Of them would
have to be bulrs-eyes In order that Jerseys
total might be equaled. The onlookers
awaited the outcome with breathless eager
ness. Finally one Of the District men fired
shot. which was just outside the center
Washington was concerned, but some little
apprehension was felt because New York
was closing up on the leaders in a startling
manner.
Soon. however, q break occurred in that
direction. New York finished third, with a
team total Of LOGS; the District second
with 1,072 and New Jersey first. with
1.014 out OF possible 1900. The scores
