Philadelphia, Sept. THE international
| cricket match between canada and the
United States, which began on Friday and
was stopped by rain Saturday, was con
| cluded this afternoon ana resulted in Il
| victory for Canada by forty runs.
The United States teams was composed
entirely Of Philadelphians. The defeat OF
the local men was Il sad disappointment to
| the local cricket admirers, who now feel
that the local men will MA Ike poor show
| Ing against the Australians, who are
booked for three matches here, beginning
on the 18th instant.
The Canadians well earned their victory
by good ali-roundcricket. The great feature
OF their game, however WIS the remark
able bowling of Laing. His extremely fast
8lls with a very deceptive break at the
wicket completely baffled the local bats.
His performance of Friday, when in the
firstinning he took six OF the local wickcts
for IL runs, was repeated today, he taking
eight wickets for So runs
Whenplay was resumed at 1 l 80 O'Clock
the visitors score stood at 81 for the
first inning and III for the second inning,
with one wicket remaining. This wicket
WAS quickly disposed of. Dean was bowlcd
for nothing oil the last ball of Ing's first
over. The crease was rolled and al II :55
o'clock Patterson and King two or the
best local batters, were sent in TO open
the Philadelphians' second inning
COULDN'T BAT.
The wicket had dried and the local men
felt confident that they would be able to
score the required 1852 runs TO win the
match. The bowling of Laing aud Nc
Giveiin, however, was straight on the
wickets and runs came very slowly. the
batters being obliged to carefully cover
their wickets. When the two men had
scored II, King raised one off LANG to
Lyon ut mid-off and retired. Wood joined
Patterson, and the latter was almost
Immediately cleaned BOWED by Laing, the
score not having been Increased. So it
Continued throughout he inning, Laing's
deadly delivery resulting most disast rously
The only free hitters OF the inning were
Biddle and Clark, the former running UP
a score OF % and the latter CARRYING his
bat out for Is. BiddIe had two lives
given MN, McGivern missing line drive
and Mcintosh losing a tip at the wicket
Both were difficult chances, though, and
the misses We're cxcusable- These were
the only misplays OF the visitors, their
fieldng being Clean and their throwing true.
Muir defended his wicket for 20 minutes
Dut ia THAT time gathered together only 10
runs. Laing bowIed almost the entire
Inning. Lyon relieving him at the club
house end, but few minutes later Laing
again went oil in McGiverin's place at the
other end. LANG was more effective from
the clubhouse end, and he soon returned TO
that place and finished the game there.
Little and Ackland sin order TO catch an
early train for Ottawa, left the field after
the eighth wicket had fallen, their places
being taken by Noble. OF the local team and
