Played at Southampton on June 11,12 and 13. Abandoned. On a very slow wicket Leicestershire made the best of their advantage of winniog the toss, and although it was not possible to begin play until a quarter to three, they had put on 231 runs by six o’clock when the innings came to an end. Moat of the batsmen hit whenever the least opportunity presented itself, and V. F. S. Crawford and Gill were particularly aggres­ sive. The former was only at the wickets for ten minutes, during which he scored 28, including two 6 ’«j and two 4’s; Gill batted for a quirter of an hour and made 35, including a 6 and six 4’s. King played a splendid innings. Whea Hampshire, who overnight had scored 7 without loss, went in on the next morning, it was found that the wicket had become much more difficult, but thauks chiefly to brilliant cricket by A. J. L. Hill, who, choosing with unerring judgment the right ball to hit, m ide a hundred runs in an hour and forty minutes, the total of the innings only fell behiad that of Leicestershire by 22 runs. Hill’s total included nineteen fours, eome of which were made by big hits to square leg. C. J. B. Wood and Whitehead put on 96 runs in an hour and a quarter for tbe first wicktt in the second innings of Leicestershire, the latter batsman being missed when he had made two runs, and when stumps were drawn Leicestershire, with 119 for two wicke s, were 139 runs on. There was no play on Saturday. L eicestershire . First innings. C. J. B.

YORKSHIRE v. WARWICKSHIRE. Played at Edgbaston on June 11, 12 and 13. Abandoned. In the absence of F. S. Jackson, Lord Hawke, Tunnicliffe and Hirst, the Yorkshire eleven in this match was but a sin dow of its former self. The batsmen seemed to have lost their confidence after their three defeats, and although on the first day their innings lasted until within a few minutes of the time for drawing stumps, it only produced 261 runs in five hours. There was hardly anything of interest in the batting, and the only time during the day when there was anything like fast scoring was during the partnership of Rhodes and Wilkinson, when the latter hit Hargreave for three 4 ’s in an over. War­ wickshire had made 13 without loss when the day’s play ended. Nor were matters much more lively on the next day, when a total of 25 1 was scored for the loss of fourteen wickets. All through the day the batting was of the methodical kind, and there was not a gleam of brightness to relieve the monotony. The highest but not the best innings was played by Byrne. Kinneir and Quaife both batted with extreme steadi­ ness, the former taking two hours and twenty-five minutes to make 32, an average of about 13 runs an hour, and the latter two hours and twenty minutes for 44. In their second ianings. the Yorkshiremea, with a lead of 63, did not do well, but when stumps were drawn they were 130 runs on with six wickets in hand, There was no play on Saturday, Y orkshire .

( secon d OF THE TOUll.) Played at Oxford on June 11, 12 and 13. Abandoned. After heavy rain on the Wednesday play began at about half-past twelve on the next morning, but when the Gentlemen of Philadelphia had scored 73 for one wicket rain came down, and there was no more play for the day. Morris was not out £ 0 . and King not out 32. On the next morning the partner­ ship wan soon broken; it had produced 62 runs. After this Graves, Lester, and Haines all did well, and it was a fairly big totil for the condition of the wicket that Oxford had to face. The Oxonians could do nothing against the fine bowling of King, who had a splendid analysis, and the innings ended 127 runs behind. When the Gentlemen of Philadelphia went in again Whately took three wicketa with the first three balls of his first over, but King and Clark made useful scores, and when stumps were drawn the total was 60 for seven wickets, that is to say, 187 runs on. If there had been any play on Saturday the Oxonians would have been very hard put to it to pull off the match, but owing to rain not a ball could be bowled. G entlemen of P hiladelph ia .

Owing to heavy rain on the day before the match, and the time taken for the wicket to dry, there was no play on the first dav. There was some very inter­ esting cricket when the game was commenced next morning, the bowlers having much the best of things. Only two men in the course of the day managed to make a good score. They were Maclaren, who scored 61 in an hour and forty minutes, and Garnett, who made 42 quickly. During the partnership of the latter and Tyldesley the most attractive cricket of the day was seen, Tyldesley making his 31 in a little ovar half an hour. When Somerset went in Brearley bowled finely. There was no play on Saturday. L ancashire . H. G. Garnett, c Cran­ fleld, b Lewis..........42 R. H.
