TRIANGULAR MATCH SCHEME.

Received March 8, 5.8 p.m. London. March 7.

' The Marylebone Club has issued a draft of a scheme of proposed triangular matches. It suggests that England. Australia and South Africa should each play each other twice during next year, taking one-third of the gross gate recoipts. The Marylebone Club considers it would be difficult to make arrangements to comply with Australia's wish that a permanent programme of international cricket fixtures should precede an agreement to play an Imperial contest, but points out that the meeting next year of cricketers from the three countries will affnrd an opportunity to discuss the proposal.
