KENT AND YORKSHIRE BATTLING GRIMLY FOR CHAMPIONSHIP HONOURS.
ANOTHER NINE CENTURIES SCORED: MIDDLESEX
TAKE FIRST INNINGS POINTS FROM LEADERS.
(TALOVOM BLUTER'S AGENCY.]
LONDON, July G.
The results of the week-end cricket matches cabled through by Reuter's show that Yorkshire are making a very determined bid to regain the top position in the County Championship, and with Kent, the present lenders, going down to Middlesex and last year's champions scoring an outright win at the expense of Surrey, the fight for championship honours is getting decidedly interesting. These counties bave cach played 13 matclies but Kent are 10 points, ahead.
Generally speaking. bowlers came in for a lean time and no- less than nine individual players entered the land of the magical three figures. Vallance Jupp, the Northants captain, hit up 19 agaifint Somerset to claim the highest score for the mid- week programme while J. T. Hearne, the Middlesex batsmaH, treated the leaders' bowling with scant respect to score 131.
Some good bowling analyses were returned, and below we give the most noteworthy batting and bowling performances:—

CHINESE R.C. FORGING AHEAD IN "C" DIVISION.
FILIPINOS SCORE FIRST
VICTORY,
[DY" BALADIN.]
Another heavy programme was carried out yesterday. The most important development since the week-end has been the spectacular jump in the League Table of the Chinese Recreation Club, who oc cupy the second position with no points lost at all. Recreio the other unbeaten club had a "helidag," while South China now lead in the table by virtue of having the most number of points, but as they have dropped 4 points, it is only a matter of time that the C.R.C. who bent them yesterday will dis place them.
The Filipinos are to be congra tulated on obtaining their first, points yesterday.
Results follow-
