-t: LOSS OF THE S.S. MISTOR. NEWPORT ROADS v. NEWPORT RIVER. At the monthly meeting of the Newport Har- boar Commissioners on Wednesday, Mr T. E. VVatson, the chairman, presiding, Mr V. H. Mor- dey asked the harbour master whather the s.s Mistor, coal laden from Newport, which was sunk by the tag Glen Rosa, was lying within Newport waters. The Harbour Master replied that she was four or live roiies beyond the hne of Newport wateis, which, he pointed out on the map, ex- tended from Goldcliffe to Paterstone liill. -Aict(irma,n Moses She is not sunk in Newport River, but five miles out- side ?—The Harbour Master Ye?.—Alder- man Moses She was lying at the Spit, or what they called Newport Roads ?—Tha Harbour Master Yes, but outside the boundary of this Commiasion.— Mr T. H. Mordey drew attention to the statement in a contemporary, and said that its placards in large letters described the steamer a3 being sunk in Newport River. It was a pity the port should be libelled in such a. way.- The Chairman thought it was done in ignorance by the person who put together the contents bill of the paper referred to. No doubt the reporters present would pat it right. Colonel Lyne asked who3e duty it was to see to the removal of the vessel, which the Harbour Master said was lying in nine or ten fathoms of water and a danger to the anchorage. Alderman Jones said no doubt the Trinity House authorities, whose duty it wa.s staled to be, would proceed to have the wreck blown up.—Mr J. Davies They are about it inow.-The Harbour Master Yes, the authorities of Trinity House are moving in the matter.

GLOUCESTERSHIRE v. SUSSWX. THE GAME UNFINISHED. Bristol, Wednesday.—Play proceeded to-day in far better weather than had been expected earlier in the week. A little rain fell in the night, but its only effect was to make the wicket easier than it had pre- viouslv been. THIS was soon shown when try and ltanii went on with their innings. The total, which stood at 149 for two wickets when stumps were drawn on Tuesday night, was advanced at such a rate that 200 appeared a.t the end of two hours. Ranjitsinnji did such a large share of the scoring that he reached his hundred when he had been at the wickets 80 minutes. Five minutes later he was caught atmid-on. Fry remained till the total reached 250, when he was well caught for A faultless 105. madein two hours and 40 minutes. Wickets fell quickly afterwards. HUTT made a brief stand, but none of the others did much, and the innings, which LASTED three hours and 40 minutes, closed at quarter to 2 for 299. Thus SGssex secured a lead of 31 on the firsti innings. Wrathall did not make a prolonged stay, and though Champain agaiu made some good strokes he was bowled by Vine with only 64 scored. The bowler named WAS doing his work in capital style. Jessop again failed to do much, but Townsend, who was batting very carefully, found a useful partner in Brown. Both men were slow, but they stopped the lot which had set in. A variety of chances were made in the bowling, but all to no purpose, for Town send reached his 50 after batting an hour and 25 minutes. Like Brown, however, he had paid most attention to defence, as it was obvious the game could not be played out. After an interval of 20 minutes for telt runs came more freely, both men making some captial strokes, principally on the leg side. When Tovvnsend only wanted eight to com- plete his hundred he wa.s bowled. When stumps were drawn at 6 the total stood at 225 for live wickets, the match being drawn. Scores:- 1st Innings.

NOTTS. ¡ ABEL CONTRIBUTES ANOTHER CENTITRT. j Kennington Oval, Wediies,-ay.-The heavy rain S which restricted cricket on Tuesday to TBR'>C hours and ten minutes was followed by another downpour in the early hours of this morning, and so saturated was the wicket that it was found impossible to resume the ga.me at the usual honr, a:H\ as the sky wore A very threatening appearance it was after 12 o'clock when the gates wera thrown open to the public.

How- ever, with the total at lCO his innings was ended by a brilliant one-handed catch in the long fidù. He hit 11 fours. Lockwood on coming in also played free cricket, and the score was rapidly taken to 135 before the third wicket fell, Lockwood being than smartly caught and bowled. With Abel and Hayward together the cricket became of a very quiet character. Abel reached his 50 in a hour and 55 minutes, but just afterwards lie lost the company of Hayward, who was stumped with the score at 190.

Canterbury, Wednesday.—The weather wore a. threatening appearance this morning, but rain held off, and Kent resumed their second innings, in which 82 runs had been scored for the loss of one wicket overnight, at 20 minutes to 12. The not-oubs were Hearne and Baker, and Kent with nine wickets in liand were 62 runs ahead. Cuttell and Webb shared the bowling. but Ward was put on for Webb, a.ud Baker hitting out brilliantly increased his not-out score of 14 to 50 in another 25 minutes, having made that number out of 69 iu 35 minutes. Then Webb re- sumed, and off him Baker was caught at 131, having hit 9 fours in his dashing display. Day started carefully, but made 15 out of 26 in 35 minutes ere he was finely caught at md-off at 157. Mason and Perkins failed, being out respectively at 164 and 172. and Stewa.rt joined Hearne. Ifearue's patient innings, which occupied nearly three hours, was ended at 189, after which Stewart and Blaker made a stand, Stewart batting uncom- monly well and making < he majority of the runs. There were seven wickets down at luncheon. On resuming after luncheon Blythe and Bradley added 27 for the last wicket, and the innings closed at 20 minutes to 4 for 279. This left Lancashire 261 to make, with about two and a quarter hours left for play, and not the slightest chance of victory. Lancashire started the fourth innings of the match at 4 o'clock.

SOMERSET v. MIDDLESEX. VISITORS WIN A SPLENDID GAME. Taunton, NVedilesday.-Thongh flue and bright, the weather this morning was again rather showery when the concluding stage of this game was entered upon, but though every promise of a fine finish was held out, there were not many people on the ground. Somerset, it may be remembered, had scored 257 for six wickets, and thus with four men to be disposed of they held a lead of 207 runs. Daniell (5) and Hill (0) resumed battiiigtt 20 minutes to 12, and Hill liavinc scored 17 out of 22, added in 15 minutes, was bowled at 279. With Newton in 300 was reached after three hours and forty miuutes. Middlesex were thus left with 278 to get to win, and at 10 minutes to 1 they commenced their task. Douglas was very unsteady to begin with,twice hitting a ball flukily through the slips. The first 5C runs, however, were scored in half-an-hour, live more being added by lunch time. Play was resumed at quarter-past 2. Lewis took up the bowling, and before another run had been added he got Douglas caught at the wicket. R Douglas and Warner then played admirably, the 100 being sent up in 80 minutes, while just later Warner com- pleted 50. Warner and It. Douglas, by excellent cricket, put 84 runs on in 30 minutes before Douglas was bowled at 139. Warner was out at 155 after batting in splendid style for two hours and a quarter. Warner hit 10 fours, 4 threes, and 9 twos, and as far as could be seen he gave no chance whatever. After he left another useful stand was effected by Wellg and Bosauquet. The latter was fo irth out at 201. The fifth and sixth wickets fell at 204 and 209, and then at 221 Nicholls was very cleverly stumped. Rawlin and Trott slowly knocked off some of the runs but at 266, with 12 wauted to win, Rawlin was bowied. With six runs wanted Williams was well caught in the deep field. The runs were th-n hit off withoot further loss, and seven minutes from time Middlesex won A good match by one wicket. p.orPR :— 1st Innings.

AIID Worcestershire had replied with 55 for two wickets. Arnold (not out 12) had Wilkes for a partner, and Warwickshire's bowling was shared by Field and Whitehead.

Arnold and Foster contiulled to bat steadily until the Worcester captain was brilliantly caught at the wicket for a vigorous 22.

From a stroke with which he completed his 50 Arnold was missed by the bowler Hargreave, and off his next hit he was badly missed in t he long field. After luncheon Arnold W.R joined by Straw, but the light was so bad that only a couple of overs were bowled before plltv was stopped for 20 miuutes. Straw played a ball on his wicket without removing the bails. For a time scoring was so slow that only 20 runs were made in three-quarters of an liour._but then Arnold hit out and made matters a little 'livelier, reaching his hundred amidst loud cheers aIte. batting four honrs Arnold after completing his 100 was twice missed, once by Willie Quaife, and then by Charles- worth. He was eventually bowlud after batting four hoars and 10 miuutes, his best hit3 being 11 fours, 8 threes, and 12 twos.

ANTICIPATIONS. Sport of an interesting character was again provided Brighton. iiasincss was resumed with the Ovingdean Plate, and the seven entered overnight assembled at the post. Tovaros gave away weight to all, but this made no difference, and she won cleverly. L. Reiff rode the winner, and he also steered ftoyal Flush, the winner of the Sussex Plate. Madden also achieved a double success in tha saddle, winning the Kemp Town Plate on Southerner and the Rottiugdean Plate on Tannstickor. The eight runners for the Brighton Cap were three more than when Cla.re. baven won last year. It was a really interesting rac, for engaged in it were this season's winners in Joe Chamberlain and Le Feu, to say nothing of Santoi, who lost the Ascot High-Weight Stakes by a length. Joe Chamberlain and Santoi were backed down to a short price, and towards the end there was a demand for Le Fen. Joe Chamberlain failed signally, and the honours of the race ware with Santoi. He had always held a good place, and half-way np the straight camp with a. fast ran and won an exciting race by a head from Firtt Principal, Le Fea beat Inquisitive for third place. The tridner and jockey of Joe Chamber- lain have been asked to explain the running of the horse in the race. A great deal more time was wasted over the Stanraer Plate than it was worth, and eventually the starting zFLto was brought into use. Grey Light and Fairy Lamp got away by themselves; and Fairy Lamp won comfortably. It waR a wretched start and nn notice need be taken of the placings. The day's sport concluded with thd Eervack Welter Handi- cap, and we had a fiue finish between Mr Tliursby on Victor Don and Lester Reiff on Lord Bruce. The American made a good attempt to get up, but Victor Don carried too many guns, and won by two lengths.

Well, it's just like this, your Honour. I have only lost £ 500 in four years. The way I ran the business is this If a man starts work on the docks and cannot get home to dinner, I iend him a shilling to get dinner." Ob, 1 see. It is all pure benevolence. Then pay this mMl, and if you don't pay in It days you go to gaol." Defendant went away muttecingi If I was to pat. in pi ison all who «.we me money I should have 500 people in." The J adge Go Rway.

S. Loates, by his four victories at Birmingham on Tuesday, increases his lead of J. Reiff in the list of winning jockeys to 12. Lonpean, winner of the Saltley Plate at Bir- mingham on Tuesday, has been objected to on the ground of carrying wrong weight. Although Nat Robinson was seen in the saddle at Birmingham his determination remains fixed to quit the sadalsand assume the duties of trainer, Fred Allsopp is making bat slow progress from the. mishap he met with at Goodwood, and some time mast elapse before be will be able to resume riding. Gallerte, abont whom 1000 to 30 was taken for the St. Yeger on Monday, is a colt by Isinglass— St. Marguerite, owned by Mr J. E. Platt, his breeder, and trained by Robinson. Rensselaer, who on Sunday won tho Grand Prix d'Ostende, holds an engagement in the Wol- verhampton Handicap on Monday. August 20th, and a 41 b. penalty raises his weight to lOst 71b. The connections of Biddo must be getting heartily sick of that gelding. At Brighton on Tuesday he waswell backed for the Bristol Plate, bnt cut a miserable figare, and it seems incredi- ble that this gelding was once backed to wia an important handicap. Ministre caused a big stir- prise by winning. The sea-green jacket of Mr Rsid Walker has not been carried by Winkfield's Dower since the season before last, for the mare was down with fever, and tha whole of last 3ea.son was a blank to her. Her reappearance however was marked with success, for she won cleverly from ReDvirnber Me, who being the mount of Rigby opened t'u-vetir- ite, but was displaced by weight of mofcoy.

A MISER'S HOARD. £ 16,000 IN STOCKS AND SECDRITlES. The news of the wealth of Elisha Browning, the Dalston old clothes man, whose suicide was recorded last week, has evidently not been over- looked by the light-fingered gentry. On Tuesday a man with a big bunch of keys attracted the atten- tion of adjoining householders and passers-by in the Southgate-road by his er-de vours to gain access to the late residence of tho dzeeased bat when a policeman bove in sight the man went off at a rao. But though the honse has been left un- tenanted and locked np, the valuables, including some 116,000 in stocks and securities, have been removed. It is stated that no will has been found, and that the fortune will go to a brother and a nephew in Plymouth
