The Philadelphia papers, and indeed several of the journals which devote space to cricket matters in the United States, have recently been much exercised over the announcement that the visit of English amateurs to the States this autumn would not after all take place. The facts of the case, according to the Philadelphia Ledger , are as follows :— “ In October last Mr. Sanders wrote to the International Committee at Philadelphia that if agreeable to the cricketers of this country he would bring over a team of English amateurs in September next. The secretary of the committee at once wrote that Philadelphia cricketers always had been and always would be glad to welcome a team managed by Mr. Sanders. That gentleman then proceeded to get his team together. Lord Hawke agreed to captain it, and among those who had consented to be members of the party were Messrs. Key, J. A . Turner, H. H. Steel, Thomas, and Sutthery. While this was going on in England several members of the local committee at Philadelphia talked the matter over, and, without having a meet­ ing of the full committee, decided that it would be better to have the trip postponed a year. The reasons which induced the com­ mittee to reach this determination were that they feared that the public might get too much international cricket; that the local season might be interfered with, and that the Manli3im ground, the most suitable for an international match, would not be in first-class condition this season. The secretary of the committee wrote a most polite note to Mr. Sanders, advising him that it was the opinion of the committee that the trip would bo more successful if postponed until 1891. The letter, however, went on to state that if Mr. Sanders, after receiving it, still desired to come this year, the committee would do all in their power to make the trip a successful and pleasant one.” Under the circumstances, Sanders naturally thought it give up the trip for this year. however, Mr. expedient to BLUE MANTLES CLUB.
