About 400 or 500 people were at Exposi-
iou Park yesterday afternoon to witness
lie third of the series of five shooting
natcues between Messrs. Fullord and
Elliott The former is from Kansas City
ind the latter from Harnsbur?. They are
wo of the best wing shots an the country.
acb contest is for 5200 a side, or, in other
lords, the total stakes amount to $1,000 a
ude. Previous to yesterday's contest Ful-
ord had won two, having been the victor in
joth the Kansas Citv and Indianapolis con.
ests. As a consequence he was favorite for
.-esterday's eent There was little or no
jetting, as nobody was inclined to back
Elliott.
Elmer E. Shaner was releree and Jim
Trow was trap-puller. Both performed
heir duties well. C H. Hostetter was
aandler lor Fullord and Elmer E. Smith for
Liliott. Tue last named shot in excellent
arm after the first 25. He had five mioses
.a the first quarter, but in the next 75 birds
re onl) -missed two. At the end ot the first
25 he was two birds behind, but at the end
'l the next 25 he was one in the rear. In
the second 25 Fullord had three misses. In
the second 50 Elliott killed every bird. His
orm was reallv first-class.
The birds were tolerably fair. Some of
hem were Very strong and left the trap like
demons. Fullord vas not quite at home
with tbete customers He also had difficulty
in downing; birds that took an upward
course. Several of the birds were very
oor and couldn't very well be missed,
diking everything into consideration the
inteu was a good one and those ho man
used it deserve credit for the way it was
conducted.
Tue men will shoot to-morrow at Will
aniport, and will end their series of con
esis at Harrisburg on Monday. II Elliott

SXAMBOUL'S EECOEDS.
Reason Wlr He May Not Likely Bo Cred
ited With Them.
Sew Yobk. Dec 22. In the discussion over
the low price realized for the stalllonfitam
boul, the fact is developed that both Stam
boul and Kremlin are not lifcely to get their
big records of this fjlL Secretary Stelnei,
of the American Trotting Horse Register,
has announced that according to special re
ports received from the National Trotting
Horse Association, all performances from
October 13 to November 27, inclusive, at
Stockton, will probably have to be rejected
on account of their not being in accordance
with the rules adopted in April.
Steineris leportedto lia e said that the
performances of Kremlin at Nashville would
have to be thiown out. as wellas'those ot
St-mboul ir the rules adopted in April were
enforced. This would pnt Kremlin back to
bis race record of 2-1 and Stamboul to his
recordof 2-IL made last year, thus leavlns
the dead P.ilo Alto, 2-0 the kini of the
trotting turf. Neither association bad en
rol ced all the April rules, which stipulate
that there rout be races qn the same da:
that the peiformance must be advertised,
and that the start must be made before 10
o'clock, and it remains to be seen what will
be done.

New York, Dec. 22? The lightweight
championship match between Jack Mc
Aullire and Dick Burse will unques
tionably be fought on Coney Island. The
Athletic Club secured the contest by offer
ing a pnrso of $15,060. The Crescent City
Club officials did not give up hopes of get
ting the lightweights until this afternoon,
when Captain Williams, their representa
tive heie, was instructed by telegraph to
come home immediately.
During this afternoon Captain Williams
signed Austin Gibbons, of Patervin, N. & ,

He ruts In a Claim for Pitcher Burnett,
Claimed by Pittsburg;
Manager IVatkins, of the St. Louis ball
club, has written Manager Buckenberger
that be, AVutLms has accepted the terms of
Pitcher Barnett, claimed by the Pittsburg
club. This piece of news was exceedingly
interesting to Mr", Buckenberger simply
from the fact that Watkins had no rulit
w bate ver, according to baseball law , to make
overtures to Barnett.
Manager Watkins had not the name of
Barnett 011 his list submitted to Fiesident
Ycing, nor has llanaser Watkins at any
time put Barnett's name to his list, the
Pitubun club, on the other hand, some
time no notified President Young to put
the me of, Burnett on the 1'ittsburj list,
and Fiesident Ynun,r did so. He notified
the local club to this effect, and that means
that ro other club In the League had a light
to approach Barnett.
It may be that Manager Watkins expects
to secure Barnett by the aid of the League
"combine." If the latter Las to deal with
it Pittsburg need not Lope to get an thing

Mr.
McCormlck Trying to Make the Pacer
Dallas a Trotter.
Mr. M. McCormick, owner of Dallas, the

vert his hoe into a trotter. During a con
versation yesterday Mr. McCormlck said:
"I have D-ilLis on a. larm at Latrobe at
present, and he has commenced trotting
without any teachmz or training. When In
the field he trot and shows remarkable
speed. I have made my mind up to trv and
make a trotter nf him. If 1 can succeed and
he shows good speed I will consider myself
a very lucky man."
