Bradford, June 25, 26, and 27. Amatch of high scoring , 939 being totalled in the three days for twenty- seven wickets . Going in first , eight of the Australian team reached double figures , Mr. Bonnor (115) and Bannerman (65), in different styles , showing good cricket . The former has never hit with greater vigour . In his innings , which only lasted an hour and a half , he got a hundred in twenty -five boundary hits . Hall (67) and Lee (83) added 111 while they were together , and but for them the county would have fared very badly , the later batsmen all failing con- spicuously . Though they had to follow on in a minority of 139 runs , the York- shiremen played up with great pluck , and thanks to Wainwright , a youngster only lately introduced into the eleven , who got 105 by fine cricket , and Mr. E. T. Hirst, whocarried out his bat for a brilliantly hit 87, when the game was over , they had scored 344 for the loss of only seven wickets . At the finish , therefore , Yorkshire was 205 on with three wickets still to fall . Yorkshire , 228 and 344 (seven wickets ) ; total , 572. Australians , 365 . (8) Yorkshirev. Warwickshire . Birmingham, July 9 and 10. Warwickshire were without Mr. Docker, Yorkshire without Ulyett and Peel . The former won the toss , and ran up the good total of 225, of which Richards made93 without a chance . Yorkshire lost seven wickets for 76, but a good stand by Moorhouse (55) and Wade(not out 66) completely altered the game. Whenrain eventually stopped play , Warwickshire wore 144 runs on, and had four wickets to fall . Warwickshire , 225 and 119 (six wickets ) ; total , 344 . Yorkshire , 200. (9) Yorkshirev. Cheshire. Bradford, July 17. Rain limited the play in this match to two hours on the second morning . In this short time Yorkshire disposed of their opponents for 60 runs, and lost one wicket themselves for seven runs . Cheshire , 60. Yorkshire , 7 (one wicket ) . (10) Yorkshirev. Australians. Huddersfield , July 26, 27, and 28 . Amatch practically confined to one day. Rain prevented a commencement until the second morning, and as the gamecould not be continued on the third day, it will be gathered that it took place under very cheerless conditions . What cricket there was, too , it will be readily understood , was of a sensational kind , andduring the one day twenty -eight wickets fell for an aggregate of 204 runs . Winning the toss , Yorkshire started well with 53 for the first wicket , of which Ulyett had contributed 48. At luncheon the total was 92 with only four wickets down, but after this the bowlers carried everything before them , and twenty -four wickets went down for 112 , with only one individual score (Mr. Trott's 28) over 20. In trying to catch Ulyett Mr. McDonnell hurt his hand so badly that he had to retire , and the Australians consequently batted one short .
