The following is taken from the Sydney Morning Herald :----

A most unpleasant incident occurred on the Tuesday. The spectators were com- pletely carried away with excitement during one over from Braund. Trumper cut him twice to the boundary, then legged him for four; the fourth ball yielded four byes, the fifth was played, and the sixth was off dri- ven for 3; a leisurely return the bats-

gave men a stolen run, and then there was an overthrow. Bill overrah his crease by 10 or 15 yards, and had to make up that before commencing his run for the overthrow. The excitement had now reached an extraor dinary height, and the cheers were desten ing. Relf fielded the overthrow and retuph. ed to Lilley, who broke the wicket before Hill could recover his ground. Then came

a revulsion of feeling. The people were

He said he did not touch it; some of the fieldsmen were sure he did, The ball apparently went just as the previous one had done.

At the conclusion of the match Crockett was splendidly vindicated by the presiden of the association (Right Hun. G. H. Reid), P. F. Warner, and M. A. Noble. Mr Reid. said, when proposing the toast of the Englishmen :--I deeply regret the disturb- ance which took place after the decision of one of the umpires. (Hear, hear.) We must, of course, remember that the

people were intensely excited over the game, though we are glad people take so kindly to its fortunes. The constituted authority, in which we have every confidence, should be respected. I believe Crockett is a man who stands well in the estimation of all Australian cricket- ers. (Hear, heat). He is not infallible, and no one can pretend to be. They were sure of his integrity and of his impartiality, It must have been painful to our friends, the visiting team, and I feel sure that I

ALLEGED PRAUD.

The case in which Pau Leung, Pau Kim and Pau l'ing, sons of Pow A Tuj who died on January 20, 1880, proceeded against Pau Kwok-Chin, executor of the estate, on a charge of fraud in connection with the

administration of their father's estate, was again before the Chief Justice for further

consideration,

Mr E. H. Sharp, K.C., instructed by Mr John Hastings, appeared on behalf of the defendant, while plaintiffs wore un represented, Pao Ping being present in Court.

His Lordship-The two sons were on board the ship also ↑

Mr Sharp said that this was an action for erica; that was the married daughter. The American wife was still living. This ap the administration of the estate of Pow A plication was made on behalf of Mr George Tai, which had already been before the P. Lammort, who was the Hongkong Court. At the last hearing in Sept. 1902 Bruce Shepherd was appointed executor appointed by Captain O'Keefo by Mr his will and culicils, and there were before Special Refores, and his certificate was He asked his Lordship affidavits made by Mr Lam-filed on December 18, 1903. inert and Mr Deacon giving the particulars His Lordship to prove the certificate and of a violent typhoon which occurred at the give judgment for defendant on the strength of that certificate.

was a man of good, honourable, standing in Hongkong, and naturally wished to clear himself from the reckless and unjustifiable charges made against him in the action. Mr Sharp then went on to review the action, and quoted from the report of the last hearing allegations of fraud made by the plaintiffs against the defendant. After the appointment of the Special Refereo, and when accounts had been gone into, the plaintiffs' solicitor, Mr Thomson, withdrew the allegations made against the defendant, there being no evidence to support such allegations.

His Lordship-What struck me in this affidavit was that they say that on the 3rd May Captain O'Keefe left Hongkong.

Mr Sharp explained that he cleared on the 3rd but actually sailed on the 7th. The ship was delayed. The testator, Captain O'Keefe, lived for very many years in the Caroline Islands, nt Yap, one of the most westerly of the group, a little south of Lat. 10 nm about Long. 138-139; Captain O'Keefe traded there and amassed a very considerable furtune.

The cargo consisted of a quantity of dynamite, fuses and detonators, As his Lordship would see from the second affidavit, there was a report from the Hongkong Observa- tory to the effect that a violent typhoon had occurred apparently just in the path of the Santa Cruz on bor voyage to Yap. On the 10th and 16th, Mr Figg of the Observatory reported that a typhoon crossed the Philip pines from the Pacific in Lat. 12, which would take the typhoon through the Sulu Ses in the midst of the Philippine archipel ago. Then it got into the China Sen west of Mindoro, and was still in the China Sea weat of the island of Luzon, at that time moving north. On the 19th the typhoon had got farther north, still to the west of the Balintang Channel and curving to the north-east. On the next day the typhoon apparently returned to the Pacific through the Bashee Channel. These two channels together formed the Formosa Channel.

From the centre a nice run down by the Naval forwards looked bright, but Bunnar and Co. gave them the right about turn.
