Rifle Meeting.
A DIFFICULTY.
[By Telegraph—Press Association.] Wanganui, last night. A difficulty in regard to the arm to be used in connection with the Now Zealand Bille Association meeting has been got over by making it optional for the competitors to use either tho -303 rifle, or the Martini. Twenty *303 rifles have been despatched to Christchurch, 20 to Dunedin, five each to Timaru and Oamaru, and arrangements are being made to forward 20 to Invercargill. The question of the handicap as between the two rifles is under consideration, and the matter will be decided on receipt of advice from Auckland.
