The foaise Hire of the innings was Mailey’s relt' markable feat in capturing the whole ten of Gloucester’s wickets for sixtvsix runs. Keigwih and Seabrook resumed to the bowling of Armstrong and Mailey. The ? r- ball was greasy, but the batting was es fairly bright. Keigwin lifted Mailey to ly Mavne at coverpoint when 65. He had m batted for two hours and hit one sixer and two fours. His play was hotter and surer than in the first innings. 7 for 158. •_ Collins dropped Mills badly at extra cover off Mailey, but the newcomer had _ only scored three when Pellew accepted another chance at the square leg boun- . dary.

(Received This Day at 8 a.m.) LONDON, Aug. 23 The manager of the Australian cricketers denies the press stories of ’ quarrels among the team, and declares they are a happy family. . Inquiries in other quarters indicate 1 there have been some tiffs, lnit the reports are exaggerated. It is not A justifiable to say that dissention reigned t< in the team as a whole. \ A PUNCH CARTOON. (Received This Day at 9.40 a.m.) lovqox, Aug. 23 A “Punch” cartoon entitled ‘‘The hi Lioiitamer,” depicts Armstrong on S Lords Cricket Ground with the British v, Li- n offering him an autograph book. l( and saving—“I know a good mail when t | 1 see one ; sign please.” LONDON, August 22. si Against Surrey Yorkshire made 388 Sl Ildrovd 144, Rhodes-65. Surrey score 81 for no wickets. 01 Against Warwickshire Hearne scored 202.' _ . Mr Sewell, in the “Daily Chronclo” 0( expresses a hope that Lancashire will " deny the report that Oldfield is negotinting to play there for though the °' standard of British cricket is not as H good as it might be, the importation H of Australian cricketers is not the wls- 1 cst way of raising it. After the iinpor- b< tation of Alan Marshall, Tarrant and Llewellyn, there was a general understanding among the counties that this Z< sort of thing would cease. It is said A Collins and Mailey are returning to Tl England after they visit South Africa. P 1 "' f o CRTCKET RECORDS. 11 i pi (Received This Dnv at 10.15 a.m.) fe LONDON, August 23.
