INNINGS WIN

FOR ENGLAND IN SECOND TEST AFRICANS MAKE 205 IN SECOND STRIKE CAMERON BATS WELL (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Australian Vress Association.—United Barries) (Received 31st July, 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, 30th July. England's victory in (he cricket rubber came after a stubborn defence by South. Africa, notably by Taylor and Cameron. Tho pitch was lifeless. Freeman only was consistently troublesome. The bowling again suggested the poverty of the English attack. Quinn batted for 100 minutes, a fino feat for a man generally going in tenth. He helped to add 53 runs. Taylor, when in the fifties, was missed by Geary. He went out to the worst ball lie received, hitting a full toss to Leyland. His score included seven fours. Morkel started uncomfortably. OwenSmith, just before going in, received a cable announcing iiis father's death, lie was sympathetically cheered when lie appeared. Cameron hit freely, and Deane, who is usually impetuous, backed up steadily. Rain caused a stoppage of the play for an hour after which tho wel hall assisted tho batsmen. Cameron skied an easy catch. He batted for 125 minutes and hit oiio six and ton fours.
