KILLS NINETY-SEVEN BIRDS IN HUNDRED IhHn Uotlllfb Win Hi 1,1 Bird Match with Walter Kkrnnrll 1nfaTorablr Weather for All Contests. tn the windstorm which drove the sands Cf the Missouri river Into the faces and tsr of the shooters and spectators, In a temperature which made winter 6vercoatt Acceptable, J. A. R. Elliott succeasfully de fended his claim to the championship of America at the live bird traps from tbe on slaught of William Crosby of OFallon. 111., who had challenged him to the content for 1100 a side. To say that the result of the shoot surprised all of the people who thought they knew something of the rela tive ability of the shooters would hardly be fair to the men who back "Um" Elliott through thick and thin, but that the major, lty of the men who were assembled at the Omaha Gun club grounds to witness the vent were surprised Is certain. AcVnowl 6 flu the ability of the man from Kansas City, they believed that in case of a high wind the shooter from Illinois would have thins In his favor and when the promised blow we fulfilled the friends of Crosby were almost certain of his success. The wind was really In favor of Elliott, as it blew ao strong aa to make the birds seek cover and a large number of the birds trapped bad to be flushed by balla thrown at them after their release. The birds un der ordinary circumstances could not be called difficult, but when a brown pigeon would melt Into oblivion and bury Itself In the blowing sand before It reached the lim its of tbe grounds almost any kind of a bird would be considered one of more than average difficulty. Large Crowd Present. A comparatively large crowd of people from Omaha and Council Bluffs were a embled at the grounds to witness tne con test, which started at 2 o'clock, after hav ing been announced for 2:30 the day berore. Crosby was the first man at the traps and caught an easy bird which waa bowled over with the second barrel. From that time until the sixteenth bird waa trapped it was an even break between the men, both of whom were shooting in excellent form. The sixteenth bird at which Elliott shot was awlft and got away from the traps so fast that It was still going when the second bar rel of the gun was empty and the Crosby backers were elated. Crosby's eighteenth bird came out In a gust of wind which al most concealed It from view and the score was even with a mlas apiece. Both men shot perfectly on the second bunch of twenty-five birds served them. Crosby's second mUa took place on his fifty-seventh bird, which was a swift one that flew low. His sixtieth bird had power to croaa the fence before it dropped dead, and the sixtieth bird of Elliott Joined It at almost the same point. From that time every one of Elliott's birds died aa they should, although one or two of them were doubtful casea until retrieved. Croaby missetL his eightieth bird, his ninetieth, bis ninety-seventh and ninety ninth, all of which were comparatively easy birds, and IB every case the loss wsa due to the state of the wind and dust, which almost concealed tbe birds. At times the wind waa so strong that the guns were out of the control of the men, but It was Dot as bad In this race aa in the one which followed. One of the prettleat races ever aeen on the Omaha dun club grounds waa the fifty bird contest between Walter Bhemwell of Colorado Springs and Chrla Gottlieb of Kanaaa City. This shoot waa arranged Thursday for ISO a side, and although It closed at the end of the forty-sixth round on account of the lack of birds, those who braved the elements and remained were given an exhibition of bird shooting seldom equaled by amateurs. Gottlieb waa in ex cellent form and the first bunch of twenty five birds went down without a miss. The wind was constantly growing stranger and the birds were difficult to flush. At the beginning of the tenth round the rain began to fall and the race was closed In a driving rain, which made It almost Impos sible to mark the course of the birds upon leaving the traps. The birds refused to respond to the balls in many cases and many were released without affording a target. Bhemwell lost hi sixth, seventeenth, thirty-third and thirty- seventh birds. Gottlieg lost his thirty sixth and forty-first birds, winning by a score of 44 to 42. High Scores In State Rveat Tbe close or tbe stats shoot waa re markable for the high scores made. In spite of the high wind of the morning. On ac count of the live bird shoots in the after noon the target program waa opened at 9 o'clock and there was no Intermission un in it waa completed. Fred oilbert, as usual, made the high score, followed by Crosby, Garrett, Wettleaf and Htrsrhy In the order named, with scores of 166, 164. IDS and 160, respectively. For the first time in the tournament first money waa divided between two men In a twenty-bird vent, Garrett and Roberts tying In (ho third event of the day.

Heavy Volume of Boalnesa and Specu lation with Exceptional Weather. NEW YORK, April 26. rradstreef says: Despite and indeed partly because of marked irregularities in weather conditions and extreme temperatures, accompanied by deterloratio.i in the winter wheat crop iha ,.iithwHt epnprai business and speculation have been of a very full vol ume lor 'nis season oi iuc jt-m. mri.. demand was relieved from the Incubus of backward weather by the hot wave which .n.ut nv.r a ixree. Dart of the country this week. '1 hie has resulted in a fair record business from wholesalers and Job bers in the east, but the talk of crop dam-m- nut n chirk upon demand In the cen tral west and southwest, and wholesale trade reports from these sectlonB are not so nood as jarlier looked for, althojgh showing some Improvement over a year ago. In the northwest snow and rains checked rotuli tmrio and distribution, but the gen eral effect has been to rather Improve the ultimate crop and business ouuook man otherwise, alinougn delaying seeoing some m-hiit. The cereals and, to lesser degree, hog products generally responded promptly to the southwestern wheat damage reports. which, coupled with very heavy decrease in the visible supplies, particularly In Manitoba and the northweBt, resulted in the highest Vrices of the crop season being reached for cash wheat. Corn, too, almoat broke the season record. Crop reports to Brad.-Ureet's indicate that beyond doubt the Kansas wheat crop has been hurt oy ire urouin anu nui wuiua Nothing in excess of three-fourths ot a crop la looked for even by the most san auine. while 60 per cent of last year s yield is confidently predicted. In other sections, however, rains have benetlted the situation, and even in Kansas the rains, though received late, are encouraging so far as the outlook for the coming corn croD la concerned. The area In this prom lses to be very large, aa also does that in oats, but the condition of the latter crop is less favorable man nopeu ror. Meats are all nigher, marketable ani mals are scarce and receipts are small Hog products have advanced in sympathy with cereals, but butter and eggs, alleged to have been cornered some time ago, have broken badly, the former to the extent of 7 cents per package. Wheat, including flour exports for the week aggregate 3,.do.u4 du., against 4,118, 108 lat week and 4.262,129 In this week last year. heat exports from July 1, 19ul, to date (forty-three weeks) aggregate 210,556, 667 bu.. against 170.616.064 last seaaon. Corn exports aggregate 376.1S6 bu., against 400,533 last week ana i.344,tob last year, July 1, 1901, to date, corn exports are 25,. 400.185 bu.. against 153.061.819 last season. Shoes are In fair distribution at the west, but eastern shipments are falling off. There Is little new in the leather business. cheaper grades being relatively most ac tiv Building material Is very active. Cotton bulls, encouraged by the light crop movements and nervousness of shorts, have forced prices higher, the highest prices for the season being reached when spots sold at t'-sc. Kaw cotton is now lc above last year's prices, and early reports of the proposed decreases in acreage are being modltied. Reports by leading eastern Jobbers are that tne past season nas peeu a verv good one for dry goods and the only complaint now is as to deliveries.
