LANCASHIRE. Played at Manchester on August 25, 26 & 27. Abandoned. A splendid innings by A. C. Maclaren, which ended in a brilliant catch with the left band, and fine cricket by Hallows and I ’ Anson.en tbled Lancashire oa Mon­ day to run up a total which, for the wicket, was recidedly good When stump* were drawn, Leices­ tershire had lost five wickeis for 80, Knight being not out :9 and R. T. Crawford not out 2. On Tuesday m>rnirg, Knight was soon disposed of, but Craw­ ford played an excellent innings, and as Cob and C. E. ue Trafford made very useful scores, therj was only a difference of 48 in favour of Lancashire when the innings ended. In their second innings Lancashire began extremely well with Ward and Maclaren, who put up 76 in an hour for the first wicket. Tyldesley, J. Stant ing and Hallows all helped Ward vtry coa- siderably, and when stumps were drawn the tot il was 310 for 5 wickets, Ward being not out 118. Hallows helped him to put on 10 i in seventy minutes. Yesterdwy Ward was out without increasing his total; he had been battfng for four hours and-a- quaiter. Shortly afterwards the innings was closed and Leicestershire had to make 373 to win. Several members of the team played excellent cricket and the score had been brought to 183 for six wickets (Macdonald and Coe teing extremely well set) when soon after lunch rain came down.

Up to lunch time on Monday Gloucestershire did fairly well in this match, their score then being 109 for four wickets, but during the interval the wicket, as so often happens, had time to get difficult, and the result was that the remaining six wickets fell to Hargreave and Field for 14 runs. Rice and Wrathall played very well indeed at the commencement of the inning's, and a little later Jessop played a fine innings, although he was n >t quite as aggressive as usual. When Warwickshire went in W illie Quaife followed up his beautiful play at the Crystal Palice by making an almost perfect (50, his partnership with Fishwick producing 92 runs ; he was at the wickets for an hour and a half, and did not make a mistake. Kinneir took two-thirds of this time to make 20, but his innings was very useful indeed. When stumps were drawn, Warwickshire had made 162 for the loss of four wickets. Fishwick added 15 runs to his overnight total; his innings was excellent in every way. Hargreave and Mojrhouse batted well, Iut the tail as a whole failed to distinguish itself. Never­ theless, Warwickshire had a lead of 108. Gloucester­ shire had an unfortunate commencement of their second innings, losing Rica at once, owing to an injury. Wrathall and Langdon both fail-d, and the outlook was bad. But Troup held ou to his end. Jessop made 20, and Champiin played a good innings, and things began to look a little better. Troup played a most valuable innings, and was at the wickets for two hours and a half; during his partnership with t rownlee 81 runs were put on. Brownlee carried his bat for a very fine innings of 63. Warwickshire had to make 124 to win, and although they lost Devey and . yrne for one run, Kinneir and Quaife played out time, bringing the total to 34 for two wickets, and within 90 of victory. Yesterday, Quaife, Kinneir and Fishwick played fine cricket, and the required luns were made at about twenty minutes past twelve. G l o u c e s t e r s h ir e . First innings. Second innings.

So often have the Surrey men found their tour in the west at the end of the season a sad disappoint­ ment that one is prepared to find them not playing up to their best form against Somerset. But on Monday they won the toss, and after a fairly satis­ factory inniugs on a difficult pitch got rid of their opponents for 44 runs less than they made them­ selves. But to some extent they lost their advantage by losing Abel in the second innings with the total at 32. Iu a match of this description a big innings by an individual often decides the result, and al­ though a lead of 76 with nine wickets in hand seemed likely to be useful to Surrey, it was not safe to rely too much upon it. Abel and H ’ yes added 54 for the second wicket in half-an-hour, but after a short innings by Crawford, producing 15, no one could be found to stop with Hayes, who played a beautiful game, and eventually carried his bat. He was at the wickets for an hour and three-quarters for his splendid innings of 86, and some of his drives were ptrfect in their way. Ih ey included three big hits out of the ground. Except that L. C. H. Palairet played very patient cricket of 45, carrying his bat through the innings, no one except Gill, who hit very hard, could do anything with Lockwood and Clode, the former making his mark am ong the tail, bay ward did not last very long on Tuesday morning, but he was playing very well indeed when he was caught for 34 Hayes and Crawford each made a duck’s egg, and things were beginning to look pretty bad for Surrey, but Dowsou and .Lockwood saved the situation, and by fiist-rate cricket put on 100 runs together. At the end of the innings, Clode, who has once or twice shewn that he has an idea of batting, made a most useful aud rapidly compiled 42. When the innings ended, Surrey, with a lead of 216, seemed to have their opponents at their mercy. Lewis was out for 0. Then Braund and Palairet brought th* score to 99, both playing admirable cricket. Phillips and Woods each made a duck’s egg, and at this time everything seemed going well with Surrey. But Palairet and Gill added 59 tefore the former was out for 77, made in two hours and a quarter, aud Maityn and Will then played ouc time, the score being 198 for five wickets, so that Somerset after all had a reasonable chance of winning. Yesterday Martyn was bowled alter six had been a.dtd, but Johnson and Gill played well and when the latier was out the total was 232, leaving 65 still to be made. Surrey still seemed to have an excellent chauce of winning, but at this critical point of the game G. C. /assail and Johnson played so confidently that the runs were hit off without further loss.
