By Tolegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, last night. A meeting of tho New Zealand Cricket Council was held on Saturday' night. A letter was read from Lord Hawke in regard to the question of bringing out a team of English amateurs to New Zealand. Lord Hawke wrote that it was impossible to say if he could accept, but he would do all in his power to carry out the Council’s wishes. He asked for informaiion as to what strength of team was necessary, and what expenses would be allowed. The Council estimated the cost of tho trip at £2OOO, and suggested that each association should get a match, and give a guarantee of the cost. A committee of three were appointed to go into details of the financial side of the question, and report at a future meeting.
