874 CRICKET g A WEEKL1 BECOR© Ctf THE 0AME, SEPT. 6 , 1894 A YORK SH IRE E LEV EN v. A LANCASHIRE ELEV EN . Though not arranged by the executives of the Yorkshire and Lancashire Clubs, the concluding fixture of the Scarborough Festival, begun on M onday was to all intents and purposes a m atch between, he two counties. Lord Hawke, the Yorkshire captain, had charge of the Lancashire team, which was collected and captained by Mr. 8. M.Crosfield. Further, excepting for the absence of Messrs. F. S. Jackson and E -rnest Smith, the one side was representative of Yorkshire, while, but for the om ission of C. 'm ith and Mr. Iindail, who were replaced by Messrs. K en vle and Crosfield, the only noticeable absentee on the other side was Biiggs. who, having to give up cricket in conse­ quence of his strain, made room for Oakley, •he Lancashire men having won the toss had m ade 72 for the loss of three wickets when heavy rain stopped play just before the luncheon interval on Monday. A resum ption was not possible til <ten minutes to four o ’clock, and only fifteen had been added when Susrg, who had played exceedingly well for his 4 4. was caught at the wicket. Alt-ert Ward wa» in ju s 5under an hour and a half for his 26, and his play was a con­ trast to that of Baker and Tinsley w ho batted in free and attractive style. The alter was not out at the end of the day when lhe innings closed, ha\ing contributed 38 r.y cricket of the best kind. Yorkshire, who went in on Tuesday morning, began in \ery prom ising fashion, and at luncheon tim e the total was 119 w uh i nly three batsmen out. When first put on Oakley had been i effective, but on his second trial after luncheon he m et w ith remarkable success. Brown, who had helped Peel to put on 67 runs for the fourth wicket was out in O akl-y’s first over, and then the col apse was so rapid that in a little over an hour tha innings was over, the seven outstanding wicket-* having only added 44 runs. Brown made 53 out of 81 while he was in, and his batting was quite up to his best standard. Oakley’s figures af er the resum p:ion showed six wickets at a cost of only 17 runs, an exceptionally fine perform ance. 1 ancashire who began their second innings with a useful lead cf ’.9 runs, lost M r.Rowley at 17. Smith played carefully, while Mr. M cLaren made runs with his usual freedom , and when the amateur was out his share of the 6) runs got was 42. l-'mith, who had heen in an hour for 9, was caught at the wicket at 77, and then Sugg and W ard pla- e 1 out time, having brought the score to 1(J3for three wickets. Rain fell heavily during Tuesday night and the early m orning of yes­ terday. The wicket itself had been protected by tarpaulin,but the ground outside was so saturated that it was determined not to attem pt further play. The m atch, therefore, was drawn, wi-h Lancashire 132 runs on, a n l seven wickets in hand. E l e v e n o f L a n c a s h ir e . First Innings. Mr. A. C. McLaren, b W ainwright ... 11 Mr. E.

A match under this title had been arranged by the United Services C.C. for the first part of this week at Portsmouth. Considering the amount of cricket the leading players have got through this season, two very fair sides had been collected by Messrs.C.W . W iight and H. T. Hewett, and with ordinarily favourable weather, the scoring would possibly have reached the high pitch usually associated with the United Services Ground. As it was, though tbe wicket had been covered with tar­ paulin, the ground generally had been so affected by the heavy rain that it was not considered desirable to comm ence play till nearly three o’clock. Mr. W right having won the toss, went in him self with Mr. Stoddart to open the batting for the East. The latter was bowled with the total at 16, but Mr. W right received useful assistance from A lec Hearne, as well as Messrs. Read and Lucas, and when play ceased for the day 149 runs had been got for the loss of six wickets. On Tuesday morning, though,M r. Hornsby wa* soon out. Mr. W eigall and W alterW right were both seen to advantage, and their partnership produced 63 runs. At the finish, too, MartiD, having a lucky escape at the outset, hit away freely, and the last wicket added 59 runs in fifty-five minutes. W alter W right eventually carried out bis bat for 60, by far the best thing he has done for some time. H e was b ittin g for two hours and a quarter, and, as far as we could see, wi hout a chance. Going in against a big total of 305, the West started well, thanks to the vigorous hitting of Mr. Hewett, who had scored 74 of 95 got when his partner, Mr. Murdoch, was out. An excellent catch in the long field soon after dismissed Mr. Hewett, who had made 77 out of 100 runs, and in just under an hour and a half, by resolute and well-timed hitting. Subsequently Martin bowled with consider­ able success, so m uch so that half the side were out for only 115 runs. Messrs. Ferris and Townsend then got together, and when play ceased on Tuesday night 57 runs had been added without the loss of another w icket. Yesterday m orning Mr, Ferris was soon out, but Messrs. Townsend and Gay played fine cricket till the latter was caught for a m ost useful 32. Mr. Townsend soon lost Mr. M or­ gan, but Nichols stayed with him for some little tim e, helping to add 32 runs. Then Mr. Townsend was caught at the wicket for 79, the highest score of the match. H e had batted two hours end a quarter, and his innings was in every way apraisewor hy display of cricket. Tyler, the last, man, only made 2, and the W est were out for 272, or 33 less tban their opponents. Going in a second time the h ast had reduced their deficit by 22 at the cost of Mr. R ob'nson’3 wicket by lunch time. After the interval Mes3rs. Stoddart and Lucas scored freely, and 62 were added before the form er was caught at short - slip. A fter his retirement matters di 1 not go so well for the side, and 24 had been put on at a cost of three more batsmen when the innings closed. / s only an hour remained when the W est went in with 163 to win, there was no chance of a definite result. Messrs. H ewett and Murdoch, in fact, had made 71 without the loss of a wicket when time was up, sothat they had none the worst of the draw. E a st o f E n g l a n d . First Innings. Mr. C. W .
