LONDON, August 25,

Annoyed because Surrey, with live down .i'o r 524, did not declare at the luncheon adjournment, Yoikshke burlesqued the game at the Oval. Verity, when bowling, placed every fieldsman, including the wicketkeeper, on the leg side of the wicket, and sent down- a number of over-arm balls that were almost wides on the on-side. Then in the middle of the ever he bowled under-arm balls, these being almost grubbers. He had the laugh turned against him, however, when the umpire no-balled the latter under the rule requiring the bowler to indicate any change of deliveries. Verity completed the over ’ with over-arms, after which Surrey declared with a record total against Yorkshire. There was an unusual incident at the opening of Yorkshire’s innings' Sandham caught Holmes at mid-on off a. uo-ball. 'Sutcliii'e, backing op too far,- was run out.
