According to a paragraph in ' Pastime' the secretary of the English Rugby Union (Mr Rowland Hill) has written to the English county secretaries as follows : " My Committee desire to ascertain whether any players in your county would be willing to be members of a team to play a series of matches in Australia. Of course only out of pocket expenses would be paid. lam in no position at present to say whether'such a tour, will be undertaken, but if it is the members of the team would leave England in April or May, 1896, and would probably be absent from the country about five months/' Mr W. Bloomfield has written to the stewards of the Auckland Trotting Club, asking the secretary to inquire into the charge of a ticket having been rung on the totalisator oh the winner of the Maiden Trot at Epsom on Saturday, after the horses had started. It was agreed to hold an inquiry en Friday night next, and the Press representatives are to be asked to be present.
The Post gives currency to the rumor that the JNow Zealand Estates Company have approached Ministers with a proposal to legalise a great lottery for the purpose of disposing of £750,000 worth of the assets of the company. The 'Post', adds that, though the necessary Bill will probably be introduced privately, Ministers are inclined to look not unfavorably on the scheme. Similar lotteries have recently been organised in Tasmania, Queensland, and Victoria, though not on such a scale. ' ■ •
