A crowd of between four and five thousand witnessed Wellington Rugby representatives win by a margin of only three points over Taranaki in a sparkling display this afternoon. 'Wellington compiled 18 points (three converted tries and a goal from a mark), while Taranaki registered four unconverted tries and a penalty goal. Both sides played the three-two-three scrum, Taranaki holding an advantage in this department and in the general forward play, though WellingI ton fielded a more impressive rear division. Tn the first spell, which ended .10 to 9 in Wellington’s favour, Taranaki had everything in their favour, but on the change over Wellington gave flashes of brilliance in combined movements.

English Rules AUCKLAND’S OBJECTION. AUCKLAND. June 29. A circular letter was received from the New Zealand Union at last evening’s meeting of the Management Committee of the Auckland Rugby Union, asking for its co-operation in carrying out the wishes of the English Union regarding injured players being not replaced and players not being per mitted to leave the field at half time, without the referee’s permission. After a brief discussion among the members, it was decided that the wishes of the New Zealand Union be conformed with, but. that the New Zealand Union be asked to take up with the English Union the question of deleting in the rules details which do i|ot affect the actual playing of the gani-. N.Z. RUGBY UNION Decisions of Meeting NONE ON ENGLISH RULES. (Per Press Association). WELLINGTON, June 29. No discussion took place at the mjeting of the Management Committee oj the New Zealand Rugby Union this evening upon the controversy in connection with the rules governing playi s leaving the field at half time and the replacement of players. The Chairnian, Mr Dean, suggested that, as the I notions which had been passed by I tomp of the Unions had not come to

hand yet, the wisest course would be to postpone discussion until next meeting. This was agreed to. “I don’t think that half the people of Sydney know that they played a match here,” remarked the Chairman, when a letter was read from the Southland Union stating that no good purpose was served by the practice of playing touring New Zealand teams against provincial sides before departure overseas. It was decided to take no action. Buller Union, holders of the Seddon Shield and Rundle Cup, advised that it intended to issue a challenge for the Ranfurly Shield. The following players were reinstated or admitted: A. H. Fyfe and R. rJ G. Wells (North Auckland), R. R. Fielder, G. S. Brown and F. H. Ros* (Auckland), J. Kirby (Waikato), L. f. Kinsella and T. Dowling (West Coast), D. E. Clark (Otago), J. W. Dando, ,/v. A. Hansen and T. C. Leitch (Golfen Bay-Motueka). /
