Between This Country and Shooting
 Societies of France.
 New York, June 11-Conditions for an international revolver match by cable have been agreed upon by the United States revolver association and the national shooting societies of France, and as result the contest will be held June q, 29, or 90. The question of date is the only matter re- ma1ning unsettled. The French ex- perts desired that the limit for the bar rel be 12A inches and the weight of arm 2Ss pounds. This was acceptable to the Americans, most of whom, however. will use the regulation 61a-inch barrel. and the other barrels varying up to eight inches. There will be fifteen men and three substitutes on each team.
 Reports from many shooting centers in the United States to the officials of the Revolver association show that nearly every expert of note is practic- ing with the object of being selected as a member of the team that will occupy the ranges of the Massachusetts Rifle club at Boston on the day of the match.

 FUTURE OF LONDON.
Lord Rothschild Interviewed By As

Lord Rothschild Interviewed By As
 sociated Press Representative
 London, June 11.-Lord Rothschild was interviewed by an Associated Press representative to-day on the fi- nancial situation in agriculture. He said:
 The depreciation in stock values is not caused by European selling for the very good reason bhat Europe has scarcely any American securities to sell. Yesterdays sales in London were almost entirely on New York or ders. Amsterdam sold slightly, but not nearly as much as was attributed to that city by the dispatches. There is absolutely no feeling of distrust in Europe over the financial conditions in America
 '.What do I think of the future? We'll the best answer I can give is thfs,'A, and Lord Rothschild handed over stock ticket showing that he had just purchased 500 shares of an American railway. "What of course is only "a drop in the bucket, but I may tell you that one of the wealthiest capitalists know yesterday invested a2OO,0oO in American securities and he has put an- other G2o0,0OO into them again this morning. That sounds large, but it is nothing compared with the selling or ders which come here from New York At such a period as this the transac- tions of even the largest investors has a small effect upon the market in which the speculator figures so largely.
 Lord Rothschild's explanation of the recent serious shrinkage in values is this: 'tSpeyers went into street rail ways, Yerkes came over here to cleo trophy the undergrounds, Morgan bought British securities, and am told Schwab went in largely for Brit ish industrials. They all thought that British on European in vestors would take a larger share in these European enterprises than they did. The result is that some of the largest capitalists in America have been obliged to realize on their securities on the other side in order to provide capital for their un- dertakings here. Under such circ1lm- stances quotations were bound to go down"
