THE ARNST-BARRY MATCH.
■A BELATED' BALANCE SHEET.
The London “Sportsman” in publishing the much belated balance-sheet of the Arnst-Barry match on the Zambesi says that, “owing to all parties leaving the Zambesi immediately after the race it was impossible to publish the accounts before this. Many rectified bills had to be written for more than once, as some had been mislaid. It will be seen that, but for Arnst’s demand’ for an extra £IOO (making his expenses £4OO instead of £3OO as originally agreed upon) there would have been) a balance of a few pounds. As it was the three guarantors provided the deficit of £B3 ss. The item £B9 8s 4d for postages, telegrams, etc., appears to be heavy, but it includes the drink consumed by the Englishmen during their six weeks’ stay. No account is rendered for food and accommodation, as in that respect the party were guests of the Goldfields Company in Rhodesia.”
