Interprovincial Cricket Match.

Otago v. Caatsrtaxy.

The match was resumed to-day at ten minutes past 12, under far more favourable circumstances than could have been anticipated, after the rough weather of Saturday night. The sun shone brightly, and the only drawback was the stiff nor* easter which was blowing. The ground was perhaps a little dead, but was drying rapidly under the strong wind. The Ist innings of Otago was resumed, and, after some good play finished as follows:—• Spring, b Firth... ... ... ... 1 veraon, b Ashley ... ... ... 9, Clarke, re Turner, b Ashby ... ... 7 Conway, b Firth ... ... ... 14 Paramor, lbw, b Turner ... ... 27 Cargill, b Frith... ... ... ... 13 Crawshaw, c Ashby b Fuller... ... 4 Collinson, c Sheath b Frith 8 HaskilUbw, b Frith '..-,■ ... ... 4 Coot, b Frith ... „.■ ... ... 9 McLennan, not out ... 6 Extras ... ... ... 11 "■■ ; Total ... ... ...105 Otago—2nd Innings.
