AUSTRALIANS DO A LITTLE BETTER.

(Received June 11, 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, June 10. The Australians had lost 9 wickets for 139 when stumps were drawn. Following are the scores:— AUSTRALIA—Ist Innings. Carter, c Poyntz b Lewis 7 McAllister, c Chidgey b Robson... 27 Hartigan, c Chidgey b Robson ... 2 Trumper, b Robson .-.. 2 Noble, c Braund b Robson ... 14 Gregory, c Shidgey b Robson ... 6 Armstrong, c Gresswell b Robson 7 Bardsley, b Robson 17 Macartney, not out ... 25 Layer, c Poyntz b Robson 5 [The above scores account for only 112 runs, and as it is scarcely likely that on a sloav Avicket 27 byes would be registered, it is presumed that a mistake has been made in the cabled total. Perhaps it should read 119.]
