Jersey City; J. T. Laird, Freehold; E. I. Vanderveer, Freehold; 
H. C. Koegel, Newark. Treastirer's report approved showing a 
good balance in favor, with no outstanding indebtedness. The 
executive and legislative committees will be appointed by Presi- 
dent Pardoe. Two sets of traps were used. 
Mr. Elliott was sick and was not in shooting form as a con- 
sequence. Mr. George Gaskill, of the Rahway Club superintended 
the shoot. Mr. Frank Lawrence assisted as squadhustler. 
There were few Rahway shooters present. Dissension in the 
club worked injury to the tournament. 
First Day, June 6. 
A strong west wind blew across the traps. In the early after- 
noon a shower set in for a half hour. In the afternoon the wind 
changed, and blew in mild gusts. There was a total of 165 
targets in the programme. The totals follow:
