! - PALMERSTON N., This Day. In the course of an interview this morning, Mayne," captain of the Victorian cricket team, said there was one serious drawback to the arrangements of the present itinerary. "We have been rushed through the country too rapidly, he'stated, "and only have an opportunity to see the place ..for a . fewhours before we commence play, and leave very soon afterwards;^ 'That doeß not give the members of the' team any time to form an impresiosn of the country, and one of the best forms of advertisement the Dominion can have is by allowing such visitors as ourselves to gam a favourable impression of New .Zealand We only drew stumps at Auckland at S p.m. yesterday, and had just time to change and have ' tea before catching the express, and we are commencing to play here during the forenoon. It does not give us much of a chance.
