The first eleven of the New jersey
Athletic Club met It's old rivals, the
Staten Island Cricket Club. Saturday
afternoon, on the Bergen Point oval, and
treated them to a defeat TO the delight
of a large following of the home players.
The New Jerseys are at the head Of the
column and have yet to feel the sting of
defeat. They feared the Staten Islands
most, as they won the championship last
year They played all around Staten
ISLAND and beat them by 1903 runs TO Il.
The game at Central Park Saturday
between the Harlem second eleven and
Yorkvilie broke up in a very uncFieket-
like dispute over the decision of the urn-
pire. On IN appeal for stamping being
answered by the proper umpire in the
negative the wicket keeper was not salts
fed INK appealed again to the umpire
at the other wicket. who gave a decision
without any right for SO doing. The
Harlems then left the field. and the
game should have been warded to their
opponents by default. The score was
Harlem Second, ~; Yorkville. IS for FIVE
wickets.
The Harlems played a championship
game of the New York Cricket Associa-
ton series at Central Park Saturday.
