VOLUNTEER NOTES.
VOLUNTEER NOTES. (BY "THE MAJOR.") This week one is naturally inclined to reflect fepon the doings of the Welsh marksmen at ISisley. Wales has never before made such a iapital show at a National Rifle Association meet- ing, and the Principality has a right to feel proud -<»f the representatives who did her such credit. Take the great competition for the Queen's Prise for example. A glance at the scores for last year and the present will show that the shoot- ing of the Queen's Hundred this year was a trifle Higher than last year, when Lieutenant Yates won the prize with a grand total of 327. This re at it required 336 to t§B for first place. The highest Wejsh scores last year were 318 by Sergt. W. T. Davies, 308 by Sergt. Tucker Williams and 306 by Private P. Jones, of Wrexham, an average 10r the three top Welsh marksmen of 310. This year Sergt. F..Jones made 336, Private Shannon §34, and Corporal Wiimot 332 an average of 334. That is to say, the average of the three most successful Welsh shots was 24, or nearly 8 per cent, higher than last year. Truly a wonderful advance. Now take the struggle for the St. George's Vase and what do we find ? Last year only one Welshman made anything like a show, and hid score was but 97. This year Private F. Hopkins, 2nd Welsh, put on 67 in the first stage and 45 at 300 yards, totalling 113, and Private Morgan, a Liverpool Welshman, made a like score, each securing a N.R.A. badge and £10. Colour-Sergt. Ball, with one point less, and Arm.-Sergt. Jones, 'I,he Newport veteran, made 105, all finishing near he top. But perhaps the finest test for all-round shooting are the N.R.A. meeting aggregates." ti these be consulted the point that Welshmen did grandly is the more clearly demonstrated. In the grand aggregate for scores in the Martin, Queen's first stage, St. George's first stage, Alexandra, Daily Graphic, Daily Telegraph and Uraphic Cyclist-Sergeant F. Jones came second, winning the silver cross and X15. The All,comers Aggregate Cap and £ 15 were won by Arm.-Serge. D. Jones, of Newport. In the grand aggregate A.rm.-Sergt Jone., Corporal Andrews. Private Shannon, and Col.-Sergt Jones all won bronze crosses and money. In the All-comers andYolunteer aggregates a goodly share of the spoils fell to the Welshmen. In the aggregates alone the Welsh- men brought home a cup, a silver cross, several bronze crosses, and zW8 in money. Quite the sensation of the Queen's competition, 10 far as South Wales was concerned, was the Shooting of Corporal Wiimot, of Cardiff, and Private Shannon, of Aberdare, neither of whom has any opportunity to indulge in long-range practice, but both of whom handled their rifles it 500 and 1,000 yards on Hatnrday in the most masterly style. Of Private Shannon I spoke some days since. CorpI. Wilmot, 3rd V.B. Welsh, who is a baker by trade, resides in Canton. By birth he is a Dornishman, having first seen the light at Cam- bourne in 1866. He has been in Cardiff for 16 years, and his shooting career began only in 1892, when he joined the Cardiff detachment 3rd V.B. Welsh. At the outset he met with great success, winning the recruits' prize with 33 points out of P, possible 35, a record for the battalion, and the same year he actually obtained second place in the open competition. In 1895 he won the Maclean Cup for the aggregate in a three days' competition. In 1897 he won the Detachment Cup. He is a wonderfully hard worker, and on the occasion of winning the Detachment Cap ut Cardiff two years ago had worked in his bake- Jiouse from 3 a.m. to 11 a.m. By midday he was ),t the Grangetown range, and by 8 o'clock the same evening had made the cup his property. It was the same determination that carried him to such a high pcsition in the Queen's Hundred last Saturday. It is worthy of remark that Corporal Wilmot would never have gone to Bisley had not Sergeant Starkey used every effort to persuade him. It's your seventh year," said Starkey, and a lucky one, you may be sure." So Wil- tnot decided to go. With what result the reader already knows. I sincerely hope that Lord Windsor's timely I Appeal on behalf of the Glamorgan Rifle Associa- tion will have a good effect. It has always appeared to me little short of a scandal that the wealthy people of the county support the associa- tion so miserably. I know of no county in Eng- land where such scant support is given by the monied classes to rifle shooting. It would be a (thousand pities if it were found necessary to cur- tail the present prize list. What is wanted is that more should follow the grand examole set by Miss Talbot, who not only subscribes most gener- ously every year, but who also allows the county meeting to be held each autumn in Margam Park. The 2nd Glamorgan Volunteer Artillery were not able to finish their competition at- Lavernock- on Saturday last owing to the large amount of shipping in the neighbourhood of Lavernock Fort. I understand that two groups— Penarth and Barry-are to compete at Shoebnryness this year on August 5th. The 2nd Glamorgan Volunteer Artillery hold their annual sports, by kind permission of Col. TTisher, at Radyr on Saturday next.
SWANSEA EXCHANGE.
SWANSEA EXCHANGE. SWANSEA, Tuesday. The meeting to day was well attended. Scotch ig iron has advanced 4s per ton, Middlesbrough is 6d per ton, and hematite 3s per ton on the tveek, and the market shows a great deal of Animation all round in all grades. It is evident that a great draw will be made upon the stocks, lis it is reported that consumers who have been holding out against paying the advance are short supplied, and have now come on the market; to such an extent as to greatly diminish the stocky immediately. The finished iron and steel trade appears to be well supported, while weldable merchant bars are well in demand at the prices given below. The quotations for tin bars have been further advanced, and £ 6 5s to £ 6 7s 6d is stated to have been paid for contracts, while for prompt delivery higher prices are demanded. Inquiries have been received from America for tinplate bars for export to that country; as the supply there is insufficient to keep their mills going. To what extent these inquiries will lead it m is impossible to say as yet. The shipments of tinplates are slightly less than the receipts from the works, which may be attributed to the deten- tion of tonnage. Makers are holding out firmly for the advanced prices, which are scarcely equal to the extra cost in the manufacture, if the present price of raw materials is taken into consideration. The whole of the works are v. ell employed, and there is quite sufficient room tor the restarting of the works that are now con- templated, as the demand for plates is greater tha,1) the present output can provide for.

CARDIFF SUNBEAM LEAGUE.
CARDIFF SUNBEAM LEAGUE. Through the kindness and generosity of the committee of the Cardiff Horticultural Society, a special tent at their recent flower show was again E laced at the. disposal of. the Indies of the Sun- eam League. A large quantity of fruit, vege- tables, and flowers was contributed by various friends, and this was sold by the ladies. The net £ roceods amounted to the handsome sum of £ 50 3. In 1897 £ 25 was added to the funds of the League in a similar way, and in 1898 J38. --=-

CYCLING NOTES.
CYCLING NOTES. (BY" PNEUMATIC.") The Pontypridd Football Club announce sports for August Bank Holiday. There are one and two mile bicycle handicaps, and a one mile scratch bicycle race. Tom Linton has arrived safely in Amcrica, having had a splendid voyage. His few days' rest hap had very good effects, as on his first spin in view of his match with Major Taylor he rode close up to record foim. On Saturday next the Cardiff Athletic Clob hold sports at the Harlequins' Ground which ought to prove ? big draw, I hear that we are to have nearly all the big professionals down, and a grand afternoon's racing should be witnessed. Swansea has a public cycle track, but two riders were fined last week for fast riding on it, the Stipendiary remarking that there were children and learners on the same track. The Neatb. Head Constable, as an outcome of a discussion by the Neath Town Council, has issued a notice to cyclists in general warning them of what will follow in the shape of Police Court proceeciings if they indulge in that insane practice of scorching within the borough. If the warningis heeded—as it is to be hoped it will be-it will be better for riders and pedestrians alike. Under the ampices of the Treforest Cycling Club a gymkhana was held on Forest House Grounds on Saturdav. The results were as fol- t lows :-Tennis ball race—1, T. Williams 2, J. McGreggor. Slow race for gentlemen—1, T. Mantle; 2, Padfield, Forest House. Hockey race-I, T. Williams 2, T. Mantle. Ladies' slow race-I, Miss Mabel Morgan 2, Miss Maud Morgan. Ladies' nomination race-I, Mias Hettie Williams (rider, Mr J. G. Morgan, secre- tary of the club); 2, Miss M. E. Morgan (rider, Mr Sam Lane). Handkerchief race—1, Padfield; 2, T. Williams, Mr J. G Morgan winning the special prize. One evening last week A. E. Kennard, of the Newport 100 Miles Road C.C., made a successful attempt to lower the 50 miles road record. The road taken was starting from St. Julian's through Caerleon, Usk, Raglan (lower road), Monmouth, and back through Raglan, Chain Bridge, and Usk, finishing at St. Julian's. Kennard started from St. Julian's at 5.5 p.m. against a nasty wind, and completed the 50 miles by arriving back at St Julian's at 7.53.p.m., the time being 2 hours 48 minutes. The timekeepers were Mr W. I. Collins (South Wales Argus) and Mr W. H. Florida. Kennard was rather unfortunate with the traffic, and he ran into a 'flock of sheep turning a corner in Usk which caused a slight delay. He rode a Ken- nard" path racer weighing 2241b., fitted with lgin. path-racing tyres. The Abergavenny Amateur Athletic Associa- tion are holding their fifth meeting in Bailey Park on Tuesday, August 8th. The list of events includes a hundred yards invitation race for a X10 109 fixsfc prize, and it is expected that this will be the race of the meeting. The hon. secre- tary, Mr Z. Wheetly, has not spared any pains to make the meeting a success. A serious deficiency occurred at Whitsuntide, and it is hoped to clear off this so that the committee can carry on athletic meetings in the future. The controversy about the last sports held at Swansea Vetch Field still rages. I have received the following interesting communication Dear Pneumatic,—Re the dispute between myself and the Swansea cycling officials. Although unwilling to prolong an argument which produced such an acrimonious retort from Mr John Williams. I have been urged by several eye-witnesses, as well as a number of my racing coofreres, to put Mr Williams, as well 80S the rest of your readers, right in respect to one or two matters concerning which W ate at variance. In the first place Mr Williams proclaims he was the only judge on the field.' Now the idea of any one man having the temerity to attempt to judge the finish of a cycle VACS where four or five competitors may be separated by inches only is so palpably absurd as to cause a smile among all who have even a slight acquaintance with the matter. As a matter of fact, although unaware of their names, I should bo pleased to point out the two gentlemen (from among the officials) who claim to be judges and who informed me that I was undoubtedly second. Mr Williams also says," continues my cor- respondent, that it was Lewis, of Bristol, not Williams, of Brecon, as I stated, to whom he ob- jected on the score of pacing Nicholls. On refer- ence to the programme yon will see that Lewis had 265 yards start, Williams 175, and Nicholls 170. The relative positions of the men alone is sufficient to support my contention, but this is a minor matter considering that Mr Williams is totally wrong in declaring that such pacing as here indulged in is illegal. He has misconstrued the rule of the N.C.U., which he infers I have no knowledge of, for proof of which let me commend him a recent issue of Cyclist, wherein is published a paragraph which flatly contradicts Mr Wil- liams on this matter. Mr Williams says: I am entitled to a crow on the score of having induced the committee to award the prize h Nicholls.' I simply ;nnlllge in a crow now, because my former letter had the effect of draw- ing Mr Williams into making such damaging admissions respecting his own incompetence as to prove him quite unfit for the post he assumed. With apologies for trespassing at this length— I am, &c., CHAS. E. JENKINS." A cycling club has just been started in connec- tion with Windsor-place Presbyterian Church. The Rev. A. Macmillan is president, and Messrs H. Batten and John Bell are the hon. sees. The membership numbers 70, and capital musters take place at the club runs, a good programme of which has been arranged.

THE TEST MATCHES.
THE TEST MATCHES. AUSTRALIA IN FAVOUR OF PLAYING THEM OUT. The suggestion that the last test match should be played to a finish has been received with unanimous approval in Australia, where the feel- ing is unanimous that all such games should be fought out to the bitter end, and that sufficient time should be allowed for the purpose. Australia has been severely disappointed (saya the Melbourne correspondent of the Evening lyews) at the results of the matches played, hitherto in the pcessnt tour. Leading cricketers say that surely three drawn matches out of the four will sound the knell of the three days' test match. It is recognised that the matches interfere with English county cricket, but it is thought that it would be better not to play them at all than to play them under such conditions as to make a draw by far the most probable result. It is suggested that as five test matches are being played of three days each it would havo been as easy to play only three matches avid devote five days each to them, thus taking up no more time and making sure of the games being brought to a conclusion. Feeling in Australia is very strong that, win or ose, the draw should be a thing of the past. -4
----'----'----PUBLIC CONVENIENCES.
PUBLIC CONVENIENCES. At the Cardiff Health Committee meeting on Tuesday, Alderman Jacobs presiding, a deputation headed by the Rev. VV. R. K. Bauiirwil 1 attended aud offered strenuous opposition to the proposal to erect a urinal on the new Splott Bridge, which they declared would in that particular spot be a nuisance and an eyesore. They urged that the convenience should be placed either in the square, near the lamp, or underground. The Chairman pointed out, the difficulties in the way of placing urinals under- ground, much as it was desired. This could only be done where the ground belonged absolutely to the Corporation. It transpired that other sites suggested had been similarly objected to by the re- sidents.The Chairman assured the deputation that the matter should have the consideration of the committee. Subsequently the subject was referred to a sub-committee with instructions to visit the site onOe more.

CRICKET.
CRICKET. THE AUSTRALIANS' TOUR. TWENTY-THIRD MATCH—v. SURREY, ATTRACTIVE CRICKET BY HAYES. COLONIALS WANT 296 TO WIN. Kennington Oval, Tuesday.—Twenty minutes' play this morning sufficed to finish off the Australians' innings, in which eight wic-kets had fallen overnight for 159 runs. Lockwood shared the bowling with Brockwell, and dismissed Laver and Howell without haviug a run hit from him. Lock- wood's five wickets cost 53 runs. and Knox's three 28 runs. Surrey, 53 behind, commenced their second innings at 20 minutes to I. Brockwell and Abel had Trumble and Howell against them. Both batsmen played in fine style, scoring so freely that 30 runs were made in 20 minutes. Noble went on at 31 and Trurnble changed ends. Play turned quiet afterwards, and at 41 Trumble bowled Brockweil, who had shown capital cricket for three quarters of an hour. Miller followed, but at 48 he was out leg-before. With Knox in, Abel still batted in fine form, and at ten minutes to 2 the arrears of 53 had been cleared off at a cost of two wicketa. Play, with the wicket in good order, seemed rather slow, i but of course Surrey had an uphill task before them. There were' quite 10,000 present when thejeame was continued in glorious summer weather, Noble and Trumble bowled, but Abel played in brilliant form, scoring ten in one over from Noble, who at 95 gave way to McLeod, the 100 going up at a quarter past 3. Abel completedliis 50 at 10S, but Trumble crossing over bowled him six runs later for an admirable 56, which lasted an hour and 50 minutes and included 9 f ours,. With Hayes in the game turned very bright, Hayes hitting hard and Knox playing more freely. Hayes continued to hit hard, and in 50 minutes made 50 out of 74, but in the same over a slow yorker from Howell dismissed Knox, who had played care- fully and well for nearly two hours. Lockwood was fifth out at 191. Lockwood and H. B. Richardson did nothing, but Key stayed with Hayes, who again hit finely. Hayes was stumped by Kelly for a capital 131, and the Innings closed for 350. The Australians went in to get 298 to win the match. Scores :-<■ SURREY.—First Innings.

Manchester, Tuesday.—This morning Lancashire continued their innings, in which they had lost 3 wickets for 120 against Gloucestershire's complete score of 23G. The not outs--Tylderley (75) and Cuttell (8)-continued their innings to the bowling of Paish and Jessop. Only 17 had been added when Tyldesley, failing in an attempt to pull a straight ball from Paish, was given out leg before. He had played perfectly for an hour and 50 minutes and hit 13 fonrs, 1 three, and 10 twos. Cuttell, who was missed overnight when he had made 3, returned the ball to the bowler after batting just an hour. Eccles batted in capital style, the many changes of bowling making no difference to his rate of scoring. He completed 50 in 65 minutes without giving a ehance, and was well supported by Lancaster, who had a narrow escape of being run out when eight, After batting an hour and a half and hitting 9 fours Eccles skied a ball in the middle of the wicket. This was the only bad stroke be made during his stay. Lancaster played a splendid game with Smith in. Townsend and Paish continued howling on the resumption. Lancaster reached 50 after batting 100 minutes. The eighth wicket added 47, and gave Lancashire a comfortable lead before Smith and Webb were clean bowled. After batting in excellent style for two hours and 25 minutes for 66 Lancaster played on to Roberts. He hit 7 fours and 3 threes, and gave no chance while 140 runs were put on. He played a great part in giving Lancashire a lead of 79 on the first innings. Gloucestershire began their second innings with Champain and Wrathall, who at once began to score freely from Lancaster and Webb. At 28 Mold displaced Lancaster, and off his first ball Champain, who was then 18, was missed at cover-slip by Webb. Capital cricket continued to be shown bv both bats- men, who, however, found the bowling of Mold very difficult to dealt with. At 46 Cuttell was tried iu place of Mold,but the 50 was passed withont loss under the hour. The avraar3 were wiped off before a wicket fell. At 82 both Wrathall and Champain were dismissed, the former caught at slip and the latter at mid-off. Scores:— mid-off.

Huttings, Tuesday.—When play ceased on Monday evening Middlesex, in a minority of 34, had scored 28 at their second attempt without loss. In brilliant weather and before a fair attendance Warner and Hayman (each 13 not out) resumed the Middlesex innings to-day at 11.35, Tate, and Bland bowling. In less than 25 minutes 19 runs were added, and then «a.vman was bowled, the first wicket falling at 47. With Stogdon in 50 was reached as the result of 40 minutes' play. Warner played finely, and at 67 Killick went on for Tate, and at 83 ihtBjitauihji dis- placed Bland, who crossed over and bowled Stogdon. Warner played very finely, but received very poor support. The 100 went fip with three wickets. down. but afterwards the batting broke down badly Warner was sixth-out at 124 and was bating for an hour and 40minute. He hit 9 fours. The innings closed at 1.15 for 144, .having lasted two hours. Bland obtained six wickets for 61, and Tate four for 34.

YORKSHIRE; TYKES IN A SPLENDID POSITrON: Leeds, Tuesday.-Play was resumed this morning in dull weather before a small company on a soft pitch. The Kent inning*, in which 7 wickets were down overnight for 147, closed for the addition of 2 rnns, Rhodes and Wainwright bowling capitally. Martin beat Tunnicliffe at 33, but came in for heavy punishment from Denton, who quickly lufr 2 fours and a three, while a four to Jackson sent up 50 in forty minutes. Though Mason and Bradley went on in turn the score still rose steadily.I Kent's innings lasted three hours-and three-quaiiecs. 'I' Jackson and Tunnieliife began battine for Yorkshire at 12 o'clock. Bradley and Martin bowled. The amateur made the first ten runs, and cutting Martin to the boundary completed his 1.000 runs. Tupnicliffe drove Bradley twice for 4, and Hearne was out at 3L The 100 went up in an hour and a haU,Ja&sou directly afterwards completing 50, while Denton reached bis in 70 minutes. With 93 added in 75 minutes Denton was caught at point.. Mitchell. was Jackson's partner at lunch, the total' being 129. On resuming at 2.50 the attendance numbered about* 4JJQQ, JBWftlS*. ftBd beat Jackson at 131 for an excellent 65, made in two hours and five minutes, including, 9 fours. Only 10 runs had been added when Wainwright played on. Hirst forced the game splendidly, hitting Bradley for 3 fours in an over, and he got 31 out of 47 in 25 minutes before being caught at the wiclapt off Mason. r Haigh then joined Mitchell, ^who sent up the 200 when the innings had lasted three hours Hearne and Bradley bowled well, only 19 runs coming in half an hour.

On Monday Essex had been sent in to bat by the opposing captain fend had run up a score of 317 for the loss of only four wickets. This morning the innings was con- tinued by JPerrin (not uut. 148) and Lucas (not out, 33) to the bowling of Hulme and Higson. Runs con- tinned to come at a fair pace, and various bowling changes were tried, but Perrin succeeded in reaching the highest total of his career The fifth wicket added 145 before Lucas was taken at mid-off. Owen and Toretti did compara- tively little, but Perris continued to play frand cricket, and he gradually neared 200. errin after, batting six hours and 40 minutes was eighth out at 440. being caught at the wicket. His bat- ting was not faultless, but he played grand cricket all through. The innings closed at 1.30 for 454. Perrin's chief Hits were 1 six, 11 fours, 6 threes, and 31 twos. Derbyshire had 15 minutes' batting before lunch, and in that time made 17 without any loss, After lunch Evershed was bowled at 30, but with Bag- shaw in the half-century was reached after 55 minutes, Carpenter took the ball from Tosetti at 64. With the score at 70 Bagshaw was beautifully caught by Owen. Storer made a promising start and brought on Buckenham for Bull, who crossed over. The century was signalled after an hour and three- quarters, and Wright reached his half-century a minute later. Wright fell to a smart catch in the slips at 16ft. He had been batting two hours and a half, during the latter portion of which he played fine free cricket. Scores:- ESSEX —First Innings.

HAMPSHIRE. WARWICKSHIRE SAVE THE FOLLOW ON. QUAIFE, W. G., AND FISHWICK CONTRIBUTE CENTURIES. Birmingham. Tuesday. Beantiful weather favoured "the resumption of this game. Yesterday1 Hants scored 425, and Warwickshire 6 for no wicket. Devey and Kinnear contmued their innings, play being very slow. Devey was caught at the wicket, but Diver brought up 50 in an hour and a quarter. Diver and Kinnear added 47 runs in three-quarters of an hour, and the latter after scoring his 50 by perfect cricket was caught at slip in the following over He had been batting just over two hours On resuming after luncheon .the bowlers were Hesel- tine and Hill, The batting was much brighter than it had been before the interval, Quaife and Fishwick hitting out in lively fashion. Wynvard went on with lobs, and in his third over dropped a hard return from Fishwick Fishwick and Quaife continued to play beautiful cricket, the second century being passed amidst cheers. Fishwick's driving was most brilliant. When 71 he was missed for a difficult chance at point, and then Qaaife with an on-drive for 3 completed his 50 The two batsmen seldom seemed in difiiculties, and runs came at a capital pace despite repeated changes in the bowling. Fishwick Pea-che-4 his 100 after batting two and a quarter hours. It was his first century in fLrst-c)A"- crickot, his previous best being 53 (not out) against Derbyshire, The partnership between Fishwick and Quaife pifodliced 182 runs in two and a half hours. Fishwick gave two chances during his innings, and hit 13 fours, 8 threes, and 7 twos. Quaife, with a three to leg, saved the follow on. Qua-ife and Lilley added 63 runs in a little over 50 minutes, and Quaife had the satisfaction of com- pleting his 100 after batting three hours and 35 minutes without making a single mistake.

LEICESTERSHIRE. ULEICESTERSHIRE SET A REAVY TASK. Worcester, Tuesday.—The weather WBS brilliantly fine when this match was continued to-lay. At the close of play last night Leicestershire, who had won the toss and put their opponents in, had scored 83 for six wickets, against their opponents' total of 206. so that with four wickets in hand they were 103 behind. To-day they made a disastrous start before Wilson and Burrows. With a single added Coe was bowled, and at 103 Whitehead left. The innings eventually closed for 126, so that on the first innings the home team had a lead of 80 runs. Worcestershire entered upon their second innings at 1 o'clock with W. L. Foster and Fereday, Stocks and Geeson bowling at the start. The wicket had now thoroughly recovered, and.the batting was excellent. At luncheonthe-score was 58 for the loss of 1 wicket. After luncheon matters did not go so well for Wor- cesfeershire, W. Foster being taken at extra cover and R. Foster cleverly caught in the slips. W. Foster had played excellent cricket. H. K. Foster and Arnold made a useful stand, and the total was 130 when Arnold, who had never seemed lItlite comfortable with Stocks, was bowled, the wicket having added 49. H. Foster's fine innings came to ft close at 196, the old Oxonian returning a ball to King. He had batted an hour and fifty minutes, and hit U. fours. After Forter's deparbure Wood bowled with great effect, disposing of Hayward .and Bird witlrsuccessive balls.

ANTICIPATIONS.
ANTICIPATIONS. Thanks to the recent rains the going was all ¡ that could be wished, and the opening stage of the Goodwood Meeting passed off most satis- factorily, the weather being gloriously fine. The port was quite up to expectations, and there was an enormons attendance. Before racing Little Eva and Eager shared favourit- ism for the Stewards' Cup at 8 to 1 each, but Dieudonne, who was heavily supported just before the flag fell, started in best demand at 9 to 2, with Mazeppa next fancied at 100 to 15, and Little Eva at 100 to 14, while Eager drifted out to 10 to 1, owing to the run on Nun Nicer, who from 100 to 7 was backed down to 8 to 1, at which price she started. Northern Parmer, the winner; was allowed to start at 20 to 1, although he had shown capital form in the spring and was, moreover, nicely handicapped. Mr Bottomley has had by no means the best of luck with his racehorses, and has certainly not won out of his turn. To-morrow the Sussex Stakes should prove a great attraction, several good three year olds being eligible to take part. There is, however, little fear of any danger to CAIMAN.

--,---------"--------PADDOCK…
PADDOCK GOSSIP. Goodwood, Tuesday.—Ideal summer weather brightened the Sussex downs this morning, and the park at Goodwood never looked more picturesque. The course, which is in excellent condition, afforded splendid going. Surprises to speculators are by no means un- common at Goodwood, and the note was strnek at the very beginning to-day when Pedant was very readily beaten in the Craven Stakes, much to the loss of the plungers, who rolled up in thou- sands to lay odds on the supposed good thing. Pixie colt, very much fancied, ran in very slovenly style-Sam LDates indeed beginning vigorously with hin hands almost after flag fall, but he never got clear of the ruck and was nearer at the finish than at any other point. Allesby's form behind Korosko at Newmarket was very creditable, where he would have won in another stride. This bad beginning for Robinson's stable figured as a bad omen for the more important races, bnt Mount Prospect was relied on to break the spell. The Prince of Wales drove over with Mr W. James's party from West Daan Park before racing started, and the Duke and Duchess of York came up the private drive through the park with the Duke of Richmond's party. Among those present one also saw the Duke of Cambridge and Prince Christian, Lord Durham j Duke of Devonshire, and a. host of notables whose faces are familiar at meetings favoured by the patricians. As the day advanced the sun grew in power, but a magnificent breeze tempered the heat, and in unsheltered places blew with a fresh- ness perfectly enjoyable. Whatever money was lost over Pedant was recovered at compound in- terest over Mount Prospect in the Charlton Welter. This horse, nursed in characteristic style by Morny Cannon in the earlier part of the race, came out at the distance and won in a canter. Although the 19 runners for the Stewards' Cup Went to the post in good time there was so much deiay at the start that nearly three-quarters of an hour was wasted before the flag fell, and mean- while the betting proceeded merrily. IThe rumours prejudicial to Dieuclonne were soon set at rest, and if at one period any price up to twenties here and there betted, there was so much money at the close that the colt regained his early position, j Dieudonne was very badly drawn and never showed prominently in the race, actually finish- ing last. Neither had Vara a good "place in the beginning, the best berths being held by Leisure Hour, Gold Medallist, Little Eva. and Myakka. The draw for places is of vital importance on this course, as at the start those on the top ground have an easy place, while those on the lower ground have to begin very steeply. The actual start could not be "seen from the Press stand, but Little Eva's colours were "pro- minent on the top of the hill alongside Myakka. The later's jockey, Martin, rode a most awfully erratic race, zig-zagging all over the course, and it is evident the mare is vary jady. Halfway down the hill Americus drew clear, and this blinkered animal, who has just returned from the stud, looked like winning. Eager had none the best of the places, but had fair-way enough to win if he bad been capable of doing so. Nasi Nicer came with great dash, but though *-colL%ring Americus, could not cope against Northern Farmer, who won by a neck. Arnericus was placed fourth, close up. The time was good— Imin. 12 2-5 sec.

LATEST MARKETS. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET. Liverpool, Tuesday.—Bacon—The market presents a quiet appearance to-day, owing to tbe-easier tenour of speculative positions on the other side. Local buying is at a standstill, whilst country traders purchase as sparingly as possible at present prices. Amongst holders therefore, who, on the whole, endeavour to steadily maintain late rates, an occa- sional seller might be found to a-ccept less stringent terms, though as yet no change is to -ibe recorded in quotations. Wa,terford anrl Continental bacon has a moderate sale, and previous prices are upheld. Shoulders are without further alteration, a moderate inquiry being met with for New Yorks and squares at firm prices. Hams—long cuts regist er another partial rise of Is per cwt, and though short cuts are less inquired for small supplies of spot parcels cause a firm tone to prevail,and values have again hardened. Lard—affected by the weaker c.i.f. rates, yesterday's improvement in prime Western has been lost, and refined also tends in buyers' favour, whilst the demand remains quiet. Cheese has advanced 6d per cwt. and a good sale is generally reported. Butter- Irish and Danish qualities move quietly into con- sumption, and there is no material alteration in prices. Eggs—Irish and Continental sell fairly well at steady rates.. Beef and pork rule firm at late figures, but only a quiet business if; experienced. ^CURRENT QUOTATIONS.

Clark, Liscard, Ches. 3191 A dozen years have, elapsed since William I'Anson trained a Liverpool Cap winner in Castor. For the Great Ebor Plate, to be run on the second day of the York August Meeting, an entry second day of the York August Meeting, an entry of 27 has been obtained. Gazetteer has bloomed regularly at Windsor now for three summers, so he may be set down as 1 almost an institution there. Nobody who saw Little Eva jnmp off the mark in the Lincolnshire Handicap wili be surprised to see her win a good race. At Huggins's establishment at Newmarket the horses in charge of that trainer are allowed a sand ba.th after racing, which is keenly appreciated by the horses. Mrs Langtry has been lucky in handicaps at Windsor, and in the July Handicap Gazetteer followed up Maluma's victory in the same race last year. Horses engaged in the St, Leger likely to carry colours at Goodwood are Caiman, La<dy Ogle, and Convoy, the last named trained, it may be men- tioned, by George Porter. Races run at the Great Sussex Meeting have on several occasions had material bearing on the St. Leger. It is now definitely stated that if all goes well with the colt the Duke of Westminster will start Flying Fox for the St. Leger, and the son of Orme and Vampire may reasonably be expected to follow in the footsteps of West Australian, Gladiateur, Lord Lyon, Ormonde, Common, Isinglass, and GaJtee More.
