Pr American team victorious by THE NEWS IN THE CIT A sentiment of gladness pervades the minds of | all our people, resulting from the unexpected victory of the American their Irish competitors. gind that they expected People were the more sober minded persons was It thought that our riflemen would defest their oppoments, There wus nothing upon which to fouod any otaer opinion fo the re of the con. test. Which has how 860 happily for Americans than the Irishmen would be victorious, Al! advantage ap- peared to be on tne side of the Irishmen.

They hoped their men Would win, but had no confidence that trey would, There were some, however, who refused to heve that foreigners could Gefeat Americans, they were fixed apon by thetr brethren as foolish ones, proper for plucking. They were given gace in tue betting, and the resmit is that wey have | Wou large sums. Until yesterday morning the general belief im the city was that the iri team Would win the contest.

A feeling of dont overspread all classes of betters, which was temporarily driven away by the news of the result of the shoo\ing over the 800-yirds range. ‘Then the Irisu idea became uppermost once more. It did not con- tinue long so, however, for when the news of the Progress of the shooting over the 900-yards range came in it was rapidly displaced, and when It was announced at the sporting headquarters that the Americans were ahead of their competitors by thirty-six points at the conclusion of the shooting over that range, their Partisans became conspicuous by loud and cheery talk, When the flnal result was announced tne enthusiasm throughout the elty was almost aa- bounded. Those persons who “told you so’? weeks ago were jnbilant—even more, If that were possi- bie, than other people. And tt is a strange lack that scarcely one of the losers of money through the deieat of the Irishmen regretied bis losses, There nas, in fact, never been a imore general Jubilee in New York, for everybody joined in tne giad chorus of praise to the clear eyes and steady nerves of the American marksmen, | SCBNMS AT THE TRLEGRAM OFFICE. | From early in the Gay there was an intense eagerness On ail sides to iearn how the shooting was going on. Tne newspaper bulletins were re- sorted to by crowds, who waited patiently until | the first announcements were put upon the | boards, Especially crowded was the neighbor- | hood of the Hvening Zelegram bulletin. That jour+ nal gave, on Monday evening, such evidence of | enterprise by printing the targets recording the latest practice scores of the two teams, that the | people looked upon i+ a8 the one from which they would yesterday learn most about the match, Tuey were not disappointed, but rather surprised at the completeness of the Telegram’s report, The excellent diagrams, upon which each counting shot of each marksman was marked, conveyed a better idea of the character of the shooting than could apy mere word description, and hence the Zelegram was sought for eagerly. The scene about the office of that journal throughout the af- teruoon and early evening was animated in the extreme, Clamoring people filed up Ann street from Theatre alley to Park row, and the newsboys did more dodging te pass, yelling, through the crowd, than a skilful bariequin does to evade the clown and pantaloon at a panto mime. The clangor of the printing presses work- | ing off the enormous number of papers demanded | py tae people, the clamor of the enthusiastic con- | grogation and the shilling of the newsboys drowned all attempts at conversation, a? THR HOTELS there was a decorous kind of ecstacy indulged in, bus yet the same feeling of yoyousness was maniiested in tnem as elsewhere in the city. The corridor and barroom of the Fifth Avenue Hotel were crowded by people who talked of naught Here the Chesterfieldian vrevner of Jimmy O’Brien, taking the HeRALD map of yesterday as a help, tustructed his numerous friends as to the whereabouts of Dolilymount and the North Bul, and also gave them more knowledge of Irish bistory than they | ever had before, for In his remarks were many rejerences to the great battie of Clontarf and the glorious death of Brian Boroihme, King of Mun- ster. THE NEWS IN THE SALOONS. ‘The greatest interest was mantiested through- out the saloons in the lower portion of the city during the afternoon. As soon as the first de- spatch haa announced that the Irish team had Won the contest over the 800 yard ranges betting | ran high that the Irishmen would win the mateb. In some instance! o Lo Ole Were Offered against | the Americans, At Delmonico’s restaurant, in Beaver street, the bulls and bears bet heavily. An Irishman named Horley jumped upon a chair and ‘offered to bet 100 to 50 that ihe Irish team would win the maich He waa immediately taken up by a litte, stout Eaglishman, who wanted to increase tue bel. AtGroarty’s, In Ann street, Was congregated a | large namber of old sports, all anxtously waiting | the publication of the vening Telegram to procure the news, Ino the party were State Senator Jonn ©. Jacovs, Lon Black, Captain Jim Turner, Chaie C. Storms ands host of otuers, At first the betting was all on the side of tue Irish team, but as the news came first that the Americans were gaining, and then that they were running ahead, 6 to 1 was offered on the success of the latter, Over $3,000 changed bands in this saloon, At monico’s, corner of Broadway and Cham- bers street, were assembled @ large num- ber of politicians and mercantie me ‘The betting here was in favor of tne American team. When-the last edition of (be evening pa- pers reached them with iue news that tue Ameri- caus had woo the match, THREE HEARTY CHEERS WERE GIVEN by over 200 persoms, wo bad assembied in the | barroom. ‘At the “Hamlet,” on Twenty-third street, a large | crowd assembled during the alterngon, it being ‘understood that the resuit of the contest wouid be bulletined tucre immediately upon the receipt of the news, A host of members of the theatrical profession ‘Was present, amon; them Bob Hart, Bob Collins, | Ept Horn and others of note, and the betting, from being at first in favor of the Irishmen, gradu- ally moved over to the side of the Americans, and When the success of the latter was announced the enthusiasm was very great. ° DOLLYMOUNT IN WALL STREET. The enthusiasm in Wail street over the victory of the American team was immense. As soon as the first telegram arrived giving tue resuit of the | shooting at 600 yards, which the Americans lost | by one point, thera was much despondency, the few men who bad bet on the victory of the Irisn team alone showing any exultation; Dut whep the despaten was recived that in the 900- yard contest there Was @ gain of thirty-ve points for our boys, there Were tremendous yells uttered by the brokers of the Stock and Gold exchanges. The hoards had adjourned before the Anal result of the 1,000-yard coutest was koown, but the acenes at Delmonice’s, Flanders’, Henderson Murphy's and Fred Koeeritog’s were animated io the extreme when the foal VICTORY AT DOLLYMOUNT was mide known. The vetting on tue street had been in favor of the Irish rifemen, but there we: some bold brokers who patriotically clung to their own countrymen, and they have the satis- tion of bagging Landsome winnings. Bobo Cutting said that Dollymount deat Doily Varden ali hollow, and be was going over in the next steamer to touch the spot.
