CRICKET.

THE SILLY SEASON. [By Electric Cablei—Copyright.] [Aust. and N.Z. Cable Association.] SYDNEY, Last Night.

It is understood that the terms objected to are the prohibition of players writing to tho Press and the refusal that they shall bo allowed on tour in company with any relative. WEDNESDAY COMPETITION.
