THE AUSTRALIAN REPS. AT HOME. (Per Press Associaton). London, August 4. In the cycling contest, England v. Australia (one mile), Parlby was first, Payne third, Megson fifth, and Lewis sixth. Time, 2min 5 4 ssec. In the five mile race, the men nmsned in the same order. Time, 14mia SOsec. Parlby won easily in both events. The League of New South Wales Wheelmen has now a membership roll of about 4000. At the first annual meeting in February, 1894, the credit balance was £30 ; at the last, held in February of this year, £1488 ; and this sum, it is expected, will be considerably augmented by the nexi report, as the income keeps steadily increasing. Last year it was JM3I4, against an expenditure of £2825, a very creditable showing for a body only in existence about two and a half years, and which practically started without funds.
