THE INTERNATIONAL CRICKET MAT

THE INTERNATIONAL CRICKET MATCH
The New York Tribune of yesterday gives the
following account of the second days playing. 1t
thinks the TWENTY-FIVE will never get chance
to record their second innings.
At ll.53, Hayward and Parr resumed their pla-
ces at the wickets, and Halls and Gibbes those at
the bowling creases. 1t was soon perceptible that
an Improvement in both bowling and fielding of
the Twenty-Five had taken place, and when in Hal
lis third over, Heyward's wicket fell quite a buoy
ancy was observable in the market relative to the
stock of the Twenty-Five, which yesterday was de-
cidedly below par!
Gibbes bowled splenddly, and so did HALLS; the
latter's speed never being greater, or his bowling
better. Gibbes took PARIS off stump for score of
Z, hit to square leg over the scorers heads being
its prominent feature Heyward's wicket fell to
Halls, the ball going in off his pad, his score being
80, consisting of threes-leg hits and drives
twos-a cut and drive, and singles; his innings be-
ing an admirably display of batting especially con-
sidering that there were % in the field against him.
Catfyn succeeded Hayward, and Lockyer followed
Parr, and both, for one hour and half, gave evil
dence of their superior abilities in the defence of
their wickets, and their skill in getting close
Cafyn's score of five made up of two and
singles, all fine cuts, the fielding at this time being
very fine indeed. bailer from Gibbes caused
his retirement, but we think but for the
severe blow he received from a swift ball
of Gibbes' he would not have been disposed of so
easily. Lockyer was finely caught at wicket by
Lang, whose play in the position he occupied was
quite an improvement on that of the day previous
Lockyer's II was made up of three threes-leg hits
and drive and singles. Diver had only obtained a
single. when he was well caught at slip by HALLS,
his wicket (the seventy falling for lO9 Stephen
son and Caesar together ran up the score to 1874,
when the former retired for TO-, two threes to leg

both Caesars and Grundys wckets with fine bail

After dinner the Americans went to the wickets,
but. as already stated, did badly, scoring only 49,
The Tribune says that Thursday and Friday the st.
Georges Club have very literally set apart for the
benefit of the Eleven, match having been arranged
for that purpose, Messrs. Lockyer and Stephenson
the two wicket keepers-choosing two Elevens
from the members of the All England, and United
All England Elevens, assisted by five PLAYERS from
the ST. Georges Club on each side. The contest
will be far more interesting than the one now in
progress
From MExIco.-The New Orleans Pscayune learns
through private source that the Miramon Gov
eminent of Mexico, taking alarm at the numerous
widely circulated reports that the constitutional
Government, or individuals adhering thereto, had
invited American citizens into the country for the
purpose of taking part in the present campaign,
has revived the celebrated Santa Anna decree of
1913, against hlibustering. This decree provides
that no quarter shall be given to any foreigner
taken with arms in his hands, but be shall be shot.
The decree applies to all foreigners without dis
elimination, and the various officers of the army
are instructed to enfore it rgidy, under the penal
ty of dismissal from office.
BY an arrival from Tampico the same paper has
particulars of the late engagement between VOL
and Doblado. The latter was still near the village
OF Vilita, whence he sends word to the Commander
in-Chief that his division nearly organized The
brigade OF Lacatecas supported by six pieces and
numerous park of artillery, had also incorporated
itself with the division of the centre. Numerous
assertions from the enemy also reported at one
time body of 500 infantry, at another numerous
body OF cavalry. But nothing yet seems to have
been done.
We find in the London papers the following obi.
tuary notice of the late General Sir William Eyre,
who, since his services in the Crimea has been re-
garded as one OF the ablest officers in the British
army:
''The dec ased General died on the sth of Septem-
Der, in the SD year of his age He entered the
army ensign, 1928; became lieutenant 1926 cap
tain, 1927; major, 1899; leutenant-coloneI l847 -
He served throughout the Kaflir war, and upon its
termination he was, in consideration of his eminent
services, nominated G. B. and aide de-camp to
the Queen; at the same time he was appointed a
colonel in the army. He became maior-general in
1854, and served throughout the arduous campaign
in the Crimea, in which he commanded brigade
at the battles of Alma, Balaklava, and Inkermann;
also at the siege of Sebastopol, where he received
severe wound in the head. He had received the
Sandman war medal and was also a recipient oil
the reward paid to officers for distinguished and
meritorious services. After his return from the
East he held the command of the British forces in
Canada.
