GERMANY'S FOREIGN TRADE † 17,5 million Marks as compared with 16 million"
[FROM OUR HAMBURG CORRESPONDY\.]
The foreign trade of Germany during the for the Football Challenge Shield is the general past twelve mouths shows a considerable equality of 12 teams participating. This is zo intrause, both in exports and imports, over doubt das to the absence of the Buffs, whose that of the previous year :---- footballperiority was questioned, and to the fact fledt the strong naval teams which provided, auch plendid tussles in previous years have not for urious reasons entered.

Three matoon have been played in the first, round of the Challengs Shield Competition, and not one of them has proved decisive, a conting enry which means an extension of the time for this round. The game between the Hongkong Club and the Naval Yard showed bath teams in geell form, and on Saturday's play it would be diment to spot the winner on the re-play, Though the meeting between the R.G.A. and the loft half of the K.O.Y.L.I. ended in a draw of one goal sach, I oshnot resist the belief that the Yorkshiremen were forturata în securing wach a result. However, next meeting is likely to-be iludisive.
League cricket had a full programme last Saturday. It was not unexpected that the RE. would beat the Polico, but few anticipated that the Olub would lose at home to the RA. Lient, Wiltshire was largely responsible for this victory by his handsome score of 120 The match between Civil Servico and the KOTLI I regarded as boing very open, but the eddiers managed to pull it off by 33 rus: The issue between Crai cngower and Ronnants was a'so very doubtful, as they drew on their prorious meeting, bat Craigengower secured a comfort. able win by the margin of 76.
*
The E.E. are still well ahead of all rivals in the League, having nine wins to their credit out of 12 matches played, and as in twe at of the four matches they have yet to play their pros pects of winning are tolerably neriain, their position is not likely to be challenged.
