SCULLING.

SYDNEY, June 29

At the paying over of the stake money in the Goudsell—Hannan match, Hannan reiterated that the best sculler won on the day. If he (Hannan) could not get a race with Durhan, the Canadian, he would retire.

A New South Wales- committee of sportsmen then asked Hannan if he would accept a race with Saul for £2OO aside, the winner to row Goodsell. This match is made possible, as Saul has not definitely challenged Gcodsell. Hannan says that lie is favourable to the proposal to row Saul. BILLIARDS. AUCKLAND, June 29.
