O w ing to heavy rain overnight, the m atch betw een these cou n ties c o u li n ot be begun at L eeds on M onday until n early h alf-past one o ’clo ck Y orkshire, w ho had w on the toss, w ent in first, bu t on ly did fairly w ell. Six o f th e e’even got dou ble figures, but th e highest fc cre r i i the total o f 140 w as Peel, w h o w as in an h cu c and a h a lf fo r h is 58. R oberts, th ou gh the w icket helped him , ( f course, to som e extent, b ow led w ith great success, taking five w ickets fo r 40 runs, to o n after five o ’clo ck G loucestershire com m en ced their innings w ith W .G . and F er.is, and so w ell did b oth pla y that w hen the tim e fo r draw ing stum ps arrived the score w as 56 w ith ou t th e loss o f a w icket. On F rida y m orning, the ground had dried considerably, and the bow lers got so m u ch assistance that in th e course o f th e day th irty w ickets fell fo r an aggregate o f 180 runs. Ferris w as ca u gh t a fter n ine rans had been added, and alth ou gh W .G . stayed fo r a lon g tim e,P eel and Jack son b ow led w ith such success th a t th e w hole ten w ickets w ere secured on T uesday m orn in g for an addition o f 52 runs, o f w h ich the last seven had only added 17. E ven then, their perform an ce w as better than that o f Y orkshire to com e. C aptain N ew nham and R oberts shared the G loucestershire bow ling, and so difficult did they prove th a t w hen the ninth w icket fell th e score w as on ly 19. A fine effort b y the last tw o batsm en, H irst and HuDter, w orked a w onderful change. Som e vigorous hitting raised the ex citem eot o f th e spec­ ta tors t i fever heat,*nd th e t atsm en had deservedly an enth u siastic reception, ustheir stand o f 42 had given the gam e a turn again rather in fa vou r of Y orkshire. A s it was, W ain w righ t’s bow '.ing, w ith the w icket to help him , w as quite irresistible, and th ou gh W .G ., F erris, and M u rch did fair y w ell, in ju st under tw o li ,urs th e innings w as over, and Y orkshire had w on b y 26 runs. W ainw right’s bow lin g at th e finish w as o f quite an exceptional kind. H e k ep t up his end h rou ghout the secon d inings, and his eeveu w ickets on ly cost 34 runs. Y o r k s h ir e .

W ith M onday’s crick et reduced by n early an hour and a h alf from rain, and n o play at all on Tuesday, it was hardly a surprise that the return m atch betw een these cou n ties should h ave ended yesterday at B irm ingham in a draw. W arw ick ­ shire, w ho w on the toss, began batting at about half-past one o’clock , and at the end o f the day had m ade 214 for the loss o f on ly h a lf their w ickets. A great part o f th e credit o f a g ood per­ form an ce rested w ith M r. B ainbridge and D iver, w ho put on 130 for the secon d w icket. T h e D erby­ shire fielding was at tim es to blam e, and D iver had th ree lives, tw o t efore he h ad got tw en ty runs. Still, h is play w as o f a bright and a ttrac­ tive character, and h is 91 w as an innings of inestim able value. Mr. B ain bridge’s battin g was on the oth er hand o f a defensive ch aracter, and he w as in a little over three hours for h is 46, m arred by one ch an ce ju st bef<re he w as out. I ater on Mr. D ocker also played a fine innings for his 6 ', w hich occu pied h im ju st an h ou r and a half. A s n o play w as possible on T uesday, W ar­ w ickshire w ere able to declare on the resu m ption yesterday, and this they did after 21 had been added fo r the loss o f on e m o e batsm an. D erb y ­ shire had thus to go in against ir26, and w ith the chance o f either a draw or a defeat. At th e outset thin gs rath er favoured the form er, and B ulm e, c hatterton, and D avidson were all seen to such advantage that the p rosp ect of a draw seem ed fairly prom ising. W hitehead s bow ling, w ith the w icket to help him , w as how ever too m u ch for the later b a ’ sm en, and he took seven of th e ten w ickets at a cost of only 41 luns. E ven then, it h ardly seem ed llikely th at D erby­ shire w ou ld be got r d o f a secon d tim e. Still this result w as attained. W h iteh ead and P allett bow led unchanged, and w ith such effect that D avidson and B agshaw alone g o t double figures. T h e total, indeed, on ly reach ed ?.9, and in the end, W arw ;ckshire w on w ith on ly tw o m inutes to spaie, and w th an innings and 8 1runs in hand. In the m atch W^hitehead to o k tw elve D erbyshire w ickets for £8 runs. W a r w ic k s h ir e . Mr. H. W . B ainbridge, c and b D avidson .. 46 Mr. J. E .
