Received July 23, 10 30 a.m. DUNFERMLINE, July 22. ' New Zealand, favoured by the weather, won the so-called second Tost against Scotland by au innings and 52 runs. The weather conditions alternated between rain and sun and made the wicket difficult.
After Page had been dismissed quickly, Donnelly batted brill,antly. the eighth wicket partnership adding 50 at a great pace. When New Zealand declared four, hours remained for play and Scotland collapsed. Donnelly made good use of the wicket, keeping a good length and spinning the ball well.
Gibb hatted brightly in Scotland’s second innings, but little opposition was forthcoming from the other batsmen.
Galliclian, who was unable to strike his length in the iirst innings, howled with excellent control in the second innings, having the best analysis for the tour.
An encouraging feature of the match was the fact that Roberts bowled in botn innings without discomfort. It is now probable that he will be able to play in the Test. The New Zealanders, will stay tonight at Dunfermline and travel to Manchester to-morrow. Details:— NEW ZEALAND. First Innings.

The encouragement of players of the future is lacking. The English side is strong and should be superior to New Zealand. There appears to exist in England plenty of good material, but the small amount of encouragement it receives docs not allow it to develop along the proper lines.”
