After an interesting game this match, spoi t in the end by rain, was left unfinished yesterday at Leicester. At the end of an innings there was only a difference of two runs in favour of Staffordshire, and as at the close of the second day the home team had made 108 for the loss of fonr latsmen, there was every chance of a good finish. No play was pos­ sible yesterday owing to rain, so that the game was drawn in a verv even state. In Leicester­ shire’s first innings, W. Brown took seven wickets in fourteen overs at a cost of only 22 runs. L e ic e s t e r s h ir e .— First Innings.

On paper there seemed good reason for the general feeling in favour of Harrow, for the great match of this year. Winchester’s decisive victory over Eton tended to impress any one with the belief that the latter were not a very strong side, while on the other hand. Harrow had shown very fair form, especially in the earlier matches. The experience of the game at Lord’s last Friday and Saturday, too, proved that the confidence in the Harrovians was not misplaced. Though they were lucky enough to win the toss they lost much of their advantage by a disastrous start. Barlow, the captain, and Bosworth Smith were the first batsmen, and Forbesthe Eton captain, a fast right hand bowler, made a most sensational commence­ ment, bowling the former with his first, and Fer­ ris, who succeeded, with his second ball. Clayton and Bosworth Smith however added 47, and Paine stayed with Philcox until the score was increased to 82. Philcox, who with Wood­ ward added 45runs, was missed when he had got 13, a mistake for which Eton suffered. As is was, loth 1 atsmen scored we 1, and on the former’s retire­ ment Rome was also seen to advantage, hitting freely. Though Woodward was bowled at 183 for an excellent 43, the last wicket also gave trouble, and as Torrens and Rudd added 31, the innings reached a total of 214. Eton began batting after lunch, and though Boare was well caught by the wicket keeper, standing back, Studd and Bromley-Martin made such a stand that the supporters of Eton were greatly elated. At 53, however, Studd was finely caught and bowled, and then things took a slight turn in favour of Kto». Bromley-Martin and Forbes scored very freoly. and 1U was up with only four batsmen out. The former’s dismissal at 11*>was the prelude to a great collapse. After Forbes was bowled at 12\ Cobbo d and Grenfell alone shaped well, and the last four wickets all fell at the same total, 144. Bromley-Martin made 68 of the first 111 runs, and his innings, which lasted an hour and a quarter, was the best display of tho opening day. When they went in a second time Harrow had a useful lead of 70 runs. This time Forbes and Lane-Fox (slow left), bowled with preat success, and with half the side out for 32, Eton’s position had improved considerably. Bosworlh Smith had played with great care from the first, and he was the eighth out at 75, after having been batting an hour and a quarter for his 31, an innines of f reat value. At the finish Porter, Rome, and 'orrens all played with great pluck, and the first day closed with the completion of the innings for 116. Wanting 187 to win, Eton’s chances on Saturday morning were far from hopeless. Their commencement however was even worse than that of Harrow, for the score on tho fall of the seventh wicket was only 39. The later part of the innings however atoned for early failures. Forbes and Bircham added 42 for the eighth wicket, and Lee helped his captain to put on 40. Bircham was however stupidly run out, just when the game was beginning to look a little interesting. This mistake coupled with the loss of Studd and Cobbold in the same way quite settled any chance Eton might have had. As it was, though Forbes carried out his bat for a well-hit score of sixty, Harrow had always plenty in hand, and by one o’clock on Saturday they had won with 64 runs to spare. Neither side, it must be admitted, was anything like up to the Lest standard of the match. All­ round, Harrow were perhaps the better eleven, although as the game went, and even with the advantage of first innings, they would have been hard pressed, but for the bad judgment which lost three wickets in Eton’s second innings. Of the sixty six matches, Harrow has now won 29, Eton 26, and 11 have been unfinished. • H a r r o w . First Innings. Second Innings. M. Y. Barlow, b Forbes ... 0 b Cobbold.......... 4 B. N.

I n the match against St. Ann’s Heath, at the latter’a private ground at Virginia Water, the Erratics commenced very badly, losing five wickets for22, But a valuable stand t-y J.M.Capel, 71, and F. Pawle, 39. altered the appejrance of the game, nnd when rain stopped play they had scored 164 for eight wickets. A very bad decision lost the wicket of Mr. Meller, who was given run ont, although the fieldsman failed either to hit the wicket with the ball or dislodge the bails. LIVERPOOL AND DI8TRICT v. YORKSHIRE. The Liverpool eleven gained acreditaule victory vesterday in this match, begun at Liverpool on Monday. Yorkshire, who had to follow on in a minority of 161 runs, made a much better show in the second innings. Hall and Wardall, who con­ tributed 213 out of 333 from the bat, were together tor over three hours and both played excellent cricket. Liverpool had not an easy task when they went in yesterday, wanting 194 to win. Chiefly through the excellent batt'ng of Mr. McLaren and Ainscough, however, the runs were got for the loss of onlyfour batsmen. Oakley, who is engaged with the Sefton Club, took ten Yorkshire wickets at a cost of 142 runs. Y o r k s h ir e . First Innings. Second Innings.
