Bastard’s analyses were 41.2 overs, 23 maidens, 29 runs, 6 wickets. His bowling was excellent through­ out, and completely puzzled the batsmen, Foord- Kelcey, who carried his bat for 26, being the only one who attempted to hit him. The Sixteen made 133 in the second venture. Barmby played very well for his 22, and when apparently well set was caught at siip in attempting to hit Hickley to le& Ruggles-Brise hit freely for 42, but his innings was marredjby one or two chances, Foord- Kelcey in particular missed a very easy catch off Page’s bowling, and Hickley failed to hold a return. The result of the match will be gathered from the report which follows. ->3icCI^ICKElf:/IJlf:0^F0RD^ (From a Correspondent.) ♦ —— T h e fourth of the University trials will by this time have come to an end, and the captain will have the arduous task before him of selecting a team to do battle with the M.C.C.-and Lanca- shire, preparatoryto the Inter-University contest. There will be six blues available, viz., M C Kemp (Hertford), J. G. Walker (Trinity), C.’ f ’. H. Leslie (Oriel), E.D . Shaw (Oriel), E. Peake (Oriel), and G. E. Eobinson (Jesus). Leslie was expected on Wednesday, and the last-named came up unexpectedly on Saturday in time for the match between the Eleven and Next Sixteen which began on Monday last. The Sixteen, who were captained by T. E. Hine-Haycock (New), the twelfth man of last year, took the wicket first and were opposed by Page and Hickley, who took Bastard's place owing to the non-arrival in time of the latter. The batting calls for no particular comment save that of Pember who played very steadily for his 17, and Bolitho, who hit freely for 48._ Bolitho played well but is over anxious to hit, and his eagerness to score quickly would render him an easy prey to bowlers like Shaw or Poate. Page bowled well, taking 6wickets for 38 runs, but his performance was quite eclipsed by that of Robinson, who had 4 wickets for the insignificant cost of 9 runs. The Jesus bowler gets more pace on than he did last year, and his first appearance this season was highly successful. The remarkable feature of the match occurred in the first innings of the Eleven, who sent in Shaw and Tristram to the bowling of Godfrey and Bastard respectively. Snaw made a single from Godfrey, and in Bastard’s third over was smartly caught at point from his second b a ll; the third ball clean bowled Walker, and the last ball bowled Kemp his analysis then reading 3 overs, 3 maiden, 0 runs 3 wickets. This is the second time Bastard has done the hat trick in the last ten days. Tristram succumbed to the sameibowler, two overs later and Asher after sending Godfrey for 3 was bowled (o wickets for 8 runs). Foord-Kelcey and Barry played with great steadiness and added 30 runs to the score, the latter being caught at the call of time for 16. On Tuesday the Eleven UNIVEESITY ELEVEN v. NEXT SIXTEEN. This match, begun at Oxford on Monday, ended yesterdayin a win for the Eleven by 71 runs. Tristram played good cricket yesterday in the second innings of the Eleven, and Buggles- Brise hit well for the Sixteen in their second at­ tempt. For the Eleven Page, Hickley, and Eobinson bowled with most effect, and Bastard was again very successful for the Sixteen. The last-named in the Eleven’s first innings got the first three batsmen with successive balls, and five wickets wete down for only eight runs. Score T h e E leven . Fir«t Innings. Second Innings. H.

To The Cricketers' Association of the U.S. In submitting the annual report, your Executive Committee are glad to note the con­ tinued interest in the game, which has been stimulated during the past season by the In­ ternational matches between the Australian eleven and teams of New York and Philadelphia, and also by the annual match with Canada, and by a series of matches played against a com­ bined Western eleven by a number of clubs in the Association. The Annual Association Match between Americans and resident Englishmen, was com­ menced on the fourth of July, but the severe storm of that and the following day prevented the match being played out, tho score, when play ceased, being for the English team 127 runs with four wickets down, and the Americans not having had the chance to take the bat; Messrs. Wood, Myers, White, and T. Hargrave, all got excellent scores. The Canadian match was played September 18th and 19th, at Nicetown, and resulted in a victory for the United States by eight wickets. The Canadian team did not fairly represent the strength of the Dominion, and although some excellent work was done by Hamilton, Morrison, Morphy, Gillespie, Hariey and Smith, the United States had no difficulty in beating their opponents. The best scores on the side of the States were made by C. Newhall, Dixon, Walter Clark, Law, Thayer, Brockie, MacNntt, and Irvine Scott. The Western Eleven which played a series of matches with Syracuse, Albany, Staten Island, Manhattan, Newark, Germantown, Young America, Merion and Girard, in August and September, proved to be a remarkably strong team, and handsomely won almost all their matches; their bowling was particularly strong, Dale, Stratford and Shaw having excellent averages, while in batting two or three of their men were sure to come off in each match, so that their progress was almost an uninterrupted triumph. In their games with the clubs of New York and Philadelphia, they showed greater strength than almost any eleven that has ever visited those two cities, excepting, of course, the English and Australian teams. The matches with the Australians were the great events of the cricket season, and although they brought with them to this country the prestige of wonderful success in England, it was hoped that the team selected in New York and Philadelphia would be able to make a creditable showing against them. Their first match was played against Eighteen of New York, October 9th and 10th, and was won by them by seven wickets, Lane, of the Staten Island, doing decidedly the best bowling against them, and G\ Wilson, Lane and Cleverley doing the best batting ; on the side of the Australians, Mur­ doch’s 54 and Giffen’s 36 were the leading scores, Spofforth and Boyle doing superb bow­ ling in both innings. The match at Phila­ delphia, October 11th, 12th, and 13th, was sadly interfered with by the rain, and it looked at one time as if the game would inevitably be a draw ; the Australians only made 106 runs in their first innings against Philadelphia’s 82; C. Newhall’s' and Law’s bowling being very effective, and the Australians finding it difficult to score against the sharp fielding of the eigh­ teen, but Philadelphia having scored 76 in their second innings, the Australians only had 53 to make to win, and Bonnor and Massie went in to wipe off the score. They were both badly missed in the out-field off L aw ; Massie was
