CONTROL OF TRAP-SHOOTING 
The letters on the above subject published in our issue of Dec. 8, 15 
and 22, show very plainly that there is an universal desire on the 
part of trap shooters throughout the United States for the devising of 
some means, whereby the evils of dropping for place, pooling and 
combining, can be done away with. Forest and Stream in the issue 
of Dec. 1, with a view to combatting the difficulty, proposed the 
organization of a National Association of Trap-Shooters; the idea 
being to fashion that organization on the lines of the League of 
American Wheelmen, the strongest organization of its kind; in the 
country, With a shooting board, endowed with powers similar to 
those of the L. A. W.'s racing board, it was suggested that all delin- 
quencies could be suitably punished, and the stains of crookedness 
wiped away from the trap-shooting tournaments of the present day. 
|i&The propositions of Forest and Stream have met with a hearty in- 
dorsement. The results of the crusade, started only a few weeks ago, 
cannot but be very encouraging to tho3e who favor honest, straight- 
forward work at the traps. 
Pittsburgh has taken the initiative and is moving in the right direc- 
tion, Judging from an item taken from a Pittsburgh paper of recent 
date, the paeticulars of which are given in full elsewhere. Memphis, 
Knoxville ane Cleveland have all expressed their determination to do 
what they can to eliminate all crookedness at their respective tourna- 
ments in 1895. Such isolated cases, only four out of many hundreds 
will certainly accomplish a vast amount of good. It is ODly, however' 
by organized efforts that the desired results, the millenjum of trap- 
shooters as it were, can be accomplished with any decree of cer- 
tainty. 
Trap-shooters, therefore, must organize. 
| (Preparations are now being made to hold a convention in New York 
city during the latter part of January for the purpose of completing 
such an organization. Every gun club that is in favor of purifying 
the field of trap-shooting should make it a point to either send a 
delegate to attend that convention or indorse in writing the object 
for which it is called. 
The call for such a convention will be issued as soon as date and 
place have been decided upon. 
Trap-Shooters Should Have a Court. 
Columbus, O., Dec. 20.— Editor Forest and Stream: Your scheme 
is in one sense all right— the great trap-shooting fraternity should 
have a court, a head. The same will serve to purify and name the 
punishment to fit the crime; but it does not rescue the sport from the 
great evil— the ringster, the manufacturer's agent. Amateurs are 
about to lay down their arms, except a few who have more pluck than 
judgment. We cannot endure it any longer. Our patience is now 
exhausted, and relief from the shark must come or we must abandon 
tournament shooting. G. M. Waters. 
Interstate's Annual Meeting. 
The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Interstate Manufac- 
turers 1 and Dealers' Association was held at Taylor's Hotel, Jersey 
City, N. J., on Tuesday afternoon, D?c. 18. Those present were Messrs. 
Chas. Tatham, Justus von Lengerke, J. A. H. Dressel, Noel E. Money 
and Paul North. 
The following firms, members of the Association, were represented: 
Tatham & Bros., by Chas. Tatham; LeRoy Shot and Lead Works, 
Chas. Tatham (by proxy); Dnion Metallic Cartridge Co., J. A. H. 
Dressel; Smokeless Powder Co.. Limited, Chas. Tatham (by proxy); 
American E C Powder Co., Limited, Noel E. Money; Cleveland Tar- 
get Co., Paul North; Von Lengerke & Detmold, Justus von Lengerke. 
The only firm unrepresented was the Standard Keystone Co., of New 
London, Conn., whose factory had been totally destroyed by fire but a 
few days prior to this meeting. Mr. Chas. Tatham, president of the 
Association, presided 
Among the various items of business transacted was the reading of 
the report of the treasurer, which showed the Association to be thor- 
oughly sound financially. The report of the manager, Elmer E. Shaner, 
who was also present at the meeting, was read and received with 
th8nks. (This report was given in full in our issue of Dec. 1.) 
1 1| In the discussion that followed the reading of the manager's report, it 
was agreed that instead of carrying around all the small tents, the 
manager should be authorized to purchase one large'tent to accommo- 
date the shooters at the Association's tournaments in '95. It was left 
to Mr. Shaner to decide upon the size he needed, and also to purchase 
gun-racks for the use of shooters. 
Another subject taken up and thoroughly discussed, was that of 
allowing the representatives of different sporting goods houses, not 
members, to attend the various tournaments given under the 
auspices of that Association ; the claim made being that those firms 
thus derived equal benefit from the tournaments without any corres- 
ponding outlay. It was Anally agreed that Mr. Dressel should write a 
letter to all such firms stating the association's views on the matter , 
The meeting of the stockholders then adjourned after electing by 
hallot the following board of directors for 1895: Messrs. Charles 
Tatham, J. A. H. Dressel, Paul North, Noel E. Money, J. von Lengerke, 
Geo. H. Sampson. 
A meeting of the new directors was called immediately after the 
above adjournment for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing 
twelve months. The following is the list of those chosen to act during 
1895: Pres , Chas. Tatham; Vice-Pres., O. D. Delano; Sec-Treas,. J. 
A. H. Dressel; Manager, Elmer E. Shaner. 
The following committees were also appointed: Executive Commit- 
tee— J. A. H. Dressel, chairman; Chas. Tatham and Justus von Len- 
gerke. Classification and Tournament Committee— Justus von Len- 
gerke, Paul North and Noel E. Money. 
In regard to the arrangements for the Grand American Handicap, to 
be held April 3, 4 and 5, 1895, It was announced by the executive com- 
mittee that contracts had been.signed with the proprietors of Willard 
Park, Paterson, N Y., whereby the use of their grounds had been en- 
gaged for the purpose of holding the handicap there. It was also 
agreed that the price of birds should be 25 cents each. No gate money 
will be charged, but no one will be admitted to the grounds save by 
ticket. These tickets will be distributed by the members of the exec- 
utive committee and the other directors. The idea of the Association 
is to keep out the undesiraole element that might attend a large event 
such as the coming Grand American Handicap promises to be. The 
handicapping will be done by Messrs. John S. Hoey and Jacob Pentz, 
in connection with the classification committee.

Mr. Fulford Would Abolish Class Shooting. 
TJtica, N. Y„ Dec. 15.— Editor Forest and Stream: Let the good 
work of purifying the trap go on. It is well to bear in mind though 
that the best government is that which governs the least. I would 
suggest to take away the motive for dropping for places by abolish- 
ing class shooting and universally adopt straight or high-gun system. 
Dropping for place Is done only at small, one-horse town and 
country shoots, ana is almost unknown at Knoxville, Chamberlin 
and Manufacturers' and Dealers' Association shoots. Whyr Because 
there is nothing to be gained by it. Note the Knoxville shoot of last 
season, . $1,000 added, open to the world, nobody handicapped or 
barred, and what was the result? It brought out the best and great- 
est amount of trap-shooters ever got together in America. There 
was no dropping for place, there were do places to drop in. It was a 
straight or nothing; and the same with all the large tournaments. It 
is the small ones that need protection ; the large one3 protect them- 
selves, aaoa E. D. Fulford, 
The Elizabeth Bi-Monthly Shoot. 
Elizabeth, N J., Dec. 21.— The Elizabeth Gun Club's first bi-monthly 
shoot passed off successfully so far aB the target day (Dec. 20.) was 
concerned. To day was live bird day, but. as will be seen from the 
scores given below, shooters did not put in their appearance till late 
in the day. The new electric pull of the Empire Target Company was 
used, and both traps and pull gave entire satisfaction. Ferd Van 
Dyke's shooting was the special feature of the day. Shooting in all 
events at a total of 1S5 targets he broke 178, missing but 7 during the 
day, thus averaging almost 95 per cent. W. R. Hobart, who is also a 
representative of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, was well 
to the fore on all occasions. V. D. Kenerson, of Worcester, Mass- 
was present and shot along with the boys, breaking his full share of 
targets. Taken altogether, Dec 20 was an extremely pleasant day 
and one that should encourage the Elizabeth Gun Club in its efforts 
to meet the demands of this vicinity for some regular target tourna- 
ments. Scores:

"Trap-Shooter's Beady Reckoner." 
There has just come from the Forest and Stream press an ex- 
tremely useful pocket reference book for trap-shooters. Its full title 
reads: "Trap-Shooter's Beady Reckoner. A series of tables showing 
at a glance the division of purses under all conditions, simple and 
complex, with entries from one to fifty. For use by individuals, clubs 
and tournaments. Compiled by J. O. Clark, Secretary Kansas State

Brewer Outclassed. 
It is perfectly correct to say that Brewer was out-classed on Thurs- 
day, Dec 20, at Morristown, N. Y. Frank Class and Jack Brewer bad 
an argument some time since as to the number of birds the latter 
could kill out of 50 from 5 traps, 30yds. rise, 50yds. boundary. Class 
claimed that Brewer could not kill 46 out of 50 on his grounds at Mor- 
ristown Driving Park, if he (Class) provided and trapped the birds. 
The result was a wager of $100 a side, the date being fixed for Dec 20. 
The day was a lovely one clear sky, good light and no wind; appar- 
ently tne clerk of the weather was not going to give Brewer the worst 
of the weather if he could help it. Class, however, never seemed to be 
m the least afraid of the final result; he had confidence in his birds, a 
confidence which was not misplaced. They were hummers every one 
or them, that is the first 28 or 30 of them. It did not look as if the 
birds were quite as good after the 26th round (when Brewer was shot 
out), as prior to that round. The start he made was auspicious kil- 
ling his first 9 very cleanly. Then he got one of those indescribable 
twisting fellows that beat him entirely; his 11th bird also got away 
from him. The 18th and 29th were the next birds to get off leaving it 
necessary for Brewer to kill 31 straight if he was to win Six more 
straight was his score when he let the 26th get away; this spoiled his 
chances and appeared to make him shoot carlessly because he let five 
more birds escape before the 50 had all been trapped, although the 
last 20 could not be said to compare with the first 30. 
Several sweeps were shot during the day, Class being decidedly on 
top of the heap as he missed but one bird in all the sweeps, totalling 
33 out of 34 shot at. Scores: 
Match, Brewer versus birds. $100 a side, Class betting that Brewer

Pittsburgh Is After Droppers. 
The following from the Pittsburgh (Pa.) Commercial-Gazette of 
Dec. 18 is of particular interest at the present time: 
Pittsburgh wing shots are getting ready to deal a hard blow at 
crooked shooting. The first meetings in 1895 of the local gun clubs 
will see a decided move made against the too prevalent custom of 
"dropping" in contests. The Herron Hill and the North Side gun 
clubs have already announced their intention of strewing the path- 
way of "droppers" with thorns rather than roses. To those unac- 
quainted with the term of "dropping" the following will explain: 
Suppose ten or a dozen shots go into a race, say 50 targets or birds; 
$100 is in the purse, which is to be divided among the four high men. 
45, 30, 15 and 10 per cent. I; has come down to the last pair of birds. 
A and B have not missed a shot, they are tied at 48 each with 3 more 
chances. C has 46 birds out of 48 shots, while D has 43. E is some- 
where behind, but should A and B come out a tie he is in for fourth 
money, as the tie men must divide. A steps up and kills both his birds, 
completing a clean score. He cannot be beaten. B can tie him, but B 
is out for the money and does not care to tie him. He figures that the 
man by killing all his birds now cannot touch him. By dividing the 
$45 with A, if he ties him, he will receive S22.50, while C, who is yet 
lower down, will take entire second money, $30. B steps up and inten- 
tionally misses or "drops" one bird, leaving his score 49 to 50 for A, 
clinching the $30 purse for B, drawing C down to third money, $15, D 
to fourth money, $10, while E is left to sympathize with the man who 
fell out of the. balloon. It is plain that B's crooked work has robbed 
C out of $15, D out of $5 and E out of $10; A has gained $23.50, while 
B. the crooked man, has increased his purse $7.50. 
The custom of "dropping" has been prevalent all over the country, 
but the Herron Hill and the North Side clubs propose to stop it. Said 
"Old Hoss," the well known shot: 
"The North Side Club will, at its meeting on Jan. 8, add to our by- 
laws a clause against 'dropping.' We will expel any member fouBd 
guilty, and any visiting shot who comes to us and does this crooked 
work will be at once ruled off the grounds and be forever barred from 
shooting with us again. This must be stopped. It is the worst of 
crookedness, and is killing the sport. Right here in Pittsburgh we 
have men who say this work is legitimate, and they would 'drop' if 
they got a chance. It's not right, and they know it. Oh, yes, we can 
tell whether a man misses a bird intentionally or otherwise." 
Secretary Lautenslager of the Herron Hill Club, said his club had 
also discussed the matter, and would rule against the crooked work. 
There was to have been a meeting of the club last night, when Lauten- 
slager was to have brought the matter up, but there was no quorum 
and the matter went over till the Jan. 27 meeting.
