Yorkshire won by an innings and 93 runs. If all the catches in the Sussex inniDgs had been taken, the total would have been lar short of what it was—that is to say, a fairly large one for a wicket which had not quite recovered from the heavy rains. The batting was most uneven. There was a good stand by Relf and Killick, and a fine one by Killick and Ranjitsinbji. the latter of whom was playing so well that the Yorkshiremen made up their minds to put up with a long outirg. The rest was a tale of collapse against the bowling of Hirst, who, after lunch, took four wickets for 19 runs, and brought the innings to an abrupt conclusion. Yorkshire did so badly when they went in that it began to look as if the Sussex total of 232 would he quite large enough ; but Tunnicliffe and Denton then made such a fine stand that when stumps were drawn Yorkshire, with three wickets down, had scored 141, and were thus less than a hundred behind. As nothing occurred to spoil the wicket during the night it was so much improved on Tuesday that the bowlers were unable to make their presence felt, and nearly every Yorkshireman who came in made a good score. When Mr. Ernest Smith and Rhodes got together, the Sussex bowling was hit all over the field, and received severer treatment than at any other time during the match. In partnership the two men put on 1*1 in an hour and twenty minutes, raising the score from 291 to 452. Mr. Smith played the most brilliant cricket, his drives being particularly noticeable; his innings of 116 not out lasted for two and a half hours, and included fourteen 4’s. W ith a balance of 257 against them, Sussex had three quarters of an houi’s batting before stumps were drawn, and in that time lost all their chances of getting out of the match with credit. Five wickets fell for 25, Ranjitsinhji being not out 12, while Mr. Fry had not been in. So well did these two famous cricketers play yesterday morning that while they were together there were hopes for Sussex. But after their partnership had produced 101 by the best cricket in the match, the end came in a minutes. First innings. C. B. Fry. b Haigh .. Relf, b H irst........... Killick, b Hirst ......... A.

M.C.C. &GROUND v. MINOR COUNTIES Played at Lord’s on July 5, 6, and 7. M.C.C. won by 325 runs. Cantain Wynyard and Mr. Stoddart made one of their few appearances in this match, and both played so well that it seems a thousand pities that they are not more frequently seen in the field. Mr. G. F. Vernon also played, and in hi« two innings of 64 and 40 shewed much of the skill and all the style which made his name so famous some few years ago. M.C.C. First innings. Second innings. Capt.

After a three days’ rest the W est Indian team once more lost the toss, and although Shrewsbury, William Gunn, and Iremonger were the only regular members of the county team who played against them, the home team was strong enough in \ atting v*ry soon to wear out the bowlers and to take advantage f their opportunities when they had done so. Shrewsbury was not in luck’s way, but Gunn played one of his innings like that which he played when he was in his prime, while Iremonger made such good use of his chances that he scored a hundred. In their task of playing for a draw the visitors adapted themselves very well indeed to circumstances Mr. Cox, Mr. Warner, Mr. Sproston and Mr. Ollivierre all distin­ guishing themselves. But they could not hold out quite long enough, and the result was a severe defeat. N otts .
