CABINET SUMMONED. POLITICAL SITUATION DEVELOPS MONARCH MEETS MEMBERS. The London correspondent of the "Bir- mingham Post" fays;—A Cabinet Council has been convened for next Thursday, and meantime the Prime Minister, very speedily after his return from the South of Franco, will have at Buckingham Palace an audi- ence of the King. His Majesty, in addition to the communication he has received from the head of the Cabinet in regard to the Qov«riiTiiem's immediate future policy, is not without verbal information as to Minis- terial opinion, he having seen within the past few days the Foreign. Secretary, the becretofy ior India, and the Secretary for War; although much that passed be- tween the Monarch and these Ministers may he understood. naturally to have bean on (iq«rtuieu:.ial subjects, it is regarded in political circles here as inconceivable that, in the present condition of atiaJ it>, conver- sation begum and eqttea with these.
LIBERALS AND LORDS.
LIBERALS AND LORDS. GRADUAL CHANGE IN THE RADICAL VIEW. R'EFOR!vlATION IN THE AIR. In the mid si of rumours and speculations as to the probable future of politics when the new Parliament assembles, the most interesting development is found 111 the changing views which Liberals are begin- ning to put forward with regard to their attack on the House of Lords. The 'Reform of the Peers" was the subject of articles in eevenai London newspapers on Friday, notably "The Times," the "Daily Chronicle, the "Westminster Gazette," and the "Daily News." The gist of the articles in those news- papers that support the Government invites the suggestion that the Liberal party are being forced to the conclusion that the pro- posed limitation of the veto of the House of Lords lends itself to three objections It is inadequate; it ie not calculated to appeal to the country; and it will not effect a final solution of the Constitutional question. As a result, tho would-be reformers propose a more coinpr<?hen.ve policy, which is to include a revision cf the Constitution of the Lords as well as an alteration of their pre- aent powers. The ai-gufnent is that it is necessary to evolve a Second Chamber carrying real weight, and that this is not to be effected by the proposals submitted by Sir Henry Campbdl-Bannennan and adopted by Mr. Asquith which in actual practice would make the House of Lords impotent for legis- lative purposes.

THREE INQUESTS AT SWANS EH I., DOCTORS' COMPLAINT OF ABOMIN- ABLE CONDUCT. CORONER AND YOUTHS' BELL- RINGING TRICKS. Alll .inqneftt was held on Saturday at Siddal: Buildings before M'r. Coroner Leeder touching the death of Clias. E. Brooks (36), fudworkcr, 47, New-street, Five months ago deceased sustained an injury to his side whilst pushing a truck at the Atlantic Fuel Wor. It was in the nature of a strain, but deceased continued to work, though he was spitting blood. On 'Thursday night last Mrs. Brooks said her husband suddenly called oat "Lizzie Ann, [Lizzie Ann." He then jumped out of b>sd and vomited, a lc»t of blood. Five doctors were sent for, and not one could be found until an hour and a half later Dr. O'&uUivan jcame, but deceased had died just before. Dr. O'iSuiliva.n said the c<1.UOO of death was shock, from hemorrhage, probably from the lungs. A verdict in accordance with the medical testimony was ijetumed. Dr. O'Sullivan elicited from MTS. Brooks that she herself had not tried to get the doctor, but the messenger who went f^tid five doctors had been tried without success, Dr. CYSulhvan said' that aibout ono a.m. a ring came to his door, but when he got down nobody was there. He generally waited for a seoond ring cr more, as a great many young fellows were in the habit of ringing \m bell. The Coroner svud it was an abominable t.rick for anybody to play, as the doctors were not only annoyed but poor people were apt to suffer by it. Dr. Jones Powell said that his bell was frequently rung in the, same wa.y. I he Ooro.ner asked the press to ventilate the grievance. FATAL FALL OVER A DOOR-RAIL. A br;uss rail on a doorstep was the in- direct caui=e of the deaJ/h of Davies (69), wife of Thos. Davies, ship- wright, of Cwin-terrace, Hafod. It was explained at the inquest, held at Siddall Buildings on Saturday, that the old lady on November 18th last had been shopping with her married daughter (Mrs. Bowers), arid when at the errtrance to the honso &lw turned round to ray "Good night," and catching her foot in the rail, fell backwards over the ?stee>p steps. ]>r. Jon-es Powell said that the cause of death, which occurred on Thursxlay Jaet, \vas concussion of the brain. A verdict of "Accidental death" was re- 'irned, the jury rewmroending that a* rail be put to what are verv da.ngermis steps. MYSTERIOUS ACCIDENT AT MOREiS- ) TON. An inquest was held at the SwaJisea Hos- J pitai on Saturday before Mr. Viner Leeder, | l oroner, touching the death of Win. George Powell (55), hvcmaii at tne Dnttryn Tin- J piato Works, Morriston. v The widow (Mrs. Margaret Elizabeth Powell), of 667, Neatli-road, Mmriston, j said that on January 6th hist her husband was brought home suffering from scalded logs and leet. He said the plate on V.'hich he was standing gave way and he fell into some boiling water. Dr. ivomp, Morriston, "y::¡.s called in. lip to the time of the acci- dent her husband was a strong healthy man. Wm. Griffiths, 90, PleasaJit-street, Mor-1 riston, was working in the same shift with deceased. Suddenly he heard shouiis, and turning round, he saw Powell in scalding | water, about a foot deep. He lifted de- ceased up. The plate on which deceased wa.) gt&hding had broken in two, but the cause of the fracture was a. mystery, as it was not a worn plate, and witness had been standing on itdiimseif a.n hour and G, half before.. Dd. Williams, mechanic at the works. said the plate w'3R half an inch thick, and the fracture was a clean one right across, Similar plates had been in use for twenty j .years, but in future thicker plates wTuiifl '■ be substituted. Dr. Cormack. house ph^icia-n a.t the Swansea Hospital, said deceased was brought. there on January 19th as lie was not doing well at home, a.nd septic poisoning had set in. He died from shook following burns primarily. A man less indiffeaent in health might have recovered, but the scalds were terrible. The jury returned a verdict in accord- anC"? with the medical testimony. Sympathy on behalf of the employer was esnressed" with the leiatives, Mr. Hild;tch. H.M. Inspector of Factor- | ies. T. C. Bull (for Mr. V. H. F,.dwa.rds., the employer), T. R. Harris (for the Welsh Artisans' Union), and R. A. James (for the hmily) appeared at the enquiry.

TALENTED CONGEST PARTY AT…
TALENTED CONGEST PARTY AT SWANSEA. EXCELLENT PROGRAMME REN- DERED AT THE ALBERT HALL. The sparsenoss of the a,udience 'at the Albert Hall, Swansea on Friday night, to- gether with other signs and symptoms, sug- gested that entrepeiieiirs, however the tare they can submit, would do well to let Swansea lie fallow for a few months. We have had an except ii of first- class concerts the lasr two or three years, and it is inevitable there should be a little reaction and a tiring of the resources which are drawn upon for support. A diminutive audience is one of the most trying of ail artistic experiences. The effect on the artistes is obvious %ut the faithful few who have attended to w o-ship at the shrine of St.^Cecilia feel desperately uncom- fortable themselves in the isolation of what is for tha. most part an abomination of deeohiticfI> a wilderness of empty chairs and benches. However, even amidst the chilli- ness and relative solitude of Friday night, those who did attend were very thoroughly rewarded. The programme had weight *and solidity in it; the artistes were ail of them thoroughly good, and one or two as pieasant singers as one couid wish to hear. Miss Maria Ricardi, the soprano, to been: with displayed finished vocalisation, amongst other items, in Bishop's "1ft), hear The gentle lark," iina in the famous pohvxia from Mignon. Both pieres aae veritable ■•cascades of gittering notes, and Miee Bi0- ardi delighted all with a brilliant exhibition of co lor at uro singing. The contralto, .\lj<lS Mane Wadis, like her colleague, had a light voice: but her product ion was well njrh perfect in its effortless case, and in St. Saen s lovely aria from "Samson and Deiilah '—by the way, why don't one of our choral societies take up this work? soe had the gem of the evening to display. and the beauties of the air lost nothing in her hands. Mr. Maurice D'Oisly, a young tenor who has made his mark in Covent Garden operas, had to leave the Prize Song from the Mei vtersiugers alone through a cold but despite this handicap he demon- strated in Mattinata and Tsk«- a pair of sparkling eyes" the fine qualities of his organ. Mr. Cecil Pearson, in the prologue to Pagliacei, exhibited a. fine resonant bass of great richnens and depth. and sang dra- matically. though his calibrc was a little weighty for the others when all were heard' in quartette singing. The quartette was from Iligoletto," and Lane Wilson's «oi,g cycle. Mora's Holiday," was alao gin-no Mr. Aldo Antonietti in Sarasatc's Zigeu- nerwøÏSGll" and Vitali's Chaeonne "—a fine example of the dignity and solidity- of I.t-ilian music of the seventeenth centuiy displayed confmmrnate ease of execution with great beauty of tone.

There was not such intense local interest, en this occasion as in some of the other international games, and the defeat by England aaid the subsequent dropping ol three OfUloe members of the All Whites have combined to make the interest, m the tussle very slight. In addition it was felt that the changes made would not benefit tho home side and were not likely to strengthen it, especially if the forwards did not rise to the height of their form. The Soots were frw I- a.nt over tlie non-inclusion of the Swansea. halves, and thought that the Welsh Union \re simply playing into their' Rands. Swan- seaites were of the aame opinion, and Owen and Jones were bertainly a more relioihte couple for such an eaicounter as wse expected to-day. The last time Bush played against the Soots lie cut up very badly and was the weakest man on the side. If aj)y other man had played so badly he would never have had another chance. Owen and Jones have to accept all the blame for the in capability of the forwards at Twickenham, and they were never given a chance to show their skill, barns: severely handicapped throughout the game. In Scotland the result of the first international match of the soason was await- ed vÔW1 anxiety. A fortnight ago the Scotch fifteen did not gh e an ideal exhibition :1g"alnst. Franoe. but that cornd eoaircely be looked upon in the nature of a trial. The side -has undoubtedly been much strength- ened1' by the inclusoon of such men as Schi^ze, Milroy, Sutherland, Kyie, and Mackenzie. Scotland were certain to make a. big effort., knowing the nature of the opera- tion, and would not treat the match with the same half-hearted zeal which character- iiscd their efforts against France. The side selected is undoubtedly the strongest at the dispoea! of the mTmrutte.e. and if beaten there can be no excuses put forward as to its non-representative character'. Sutherland,,] who ta.kes Dobson's place, is-stated to be a good man., and has lie en accustomed to play the same frame as practised in Wales. Scot- land are looking to their forwards to lay the foundation to. suoopss. and so axe Wales, Therfe neems a great inclination on the part of the Scotch prayers to sacrifice the old pay- ing and bustling game for the modern me- thod of heeling out. The records show that out of 25 game* played since 1883 Scotland have been victorious on 13 occasions, Wales lltJimw, and the remaining game was drawn. The Scots have registered 215 points and Wales has replied with a total of 130 points, so that the S'ois have been much'l more prolific scorers. The men from beivond the border won their last game against the Men of Harlech at. Edinburgh in 1907 by a 'ILI singiO point. Not gli-ice 1892 have the, Sootoh- men been successful on Welsh soil, when th, won by a goal an/1 a try to a try. Tlie make iit clear that Wales -do much hett?r at home than in Scotland, and the enthusiasts who were looking for victory to-day were basing their calculations upon the fact. thai the game was being plaved at home. The matches against England and Sectiand differ largely. Of the last ten matches played against England the le-k 1"0- pres,raitativeg won nine out of ben. which in- dicates the weakness of the Englishmen. Only three times since 1883 have. Wales won on Scotch territory, and the Welshmen are never seen at their best when in Scotland. The Scotch players do not show a similar attack of nerves when they come to Wales, ana they aWays put up a good fight before they are vanquished. The Scottish players a.mved in Cardiff on Fridav morning, but oould not have a practise at Cardiff Arms j Park on account of the poor state of the turf; so the Sophia Gardens were plaoed at their disjicsal, and all the members turned out on Friday afternoon fry a stretcher. The Scotch captain" in an interview, expressed his satisfaction that the Swansea calves wecre not opposed to them, for he had had previous experience of meeting the Swanaea- men and Bush, and would much prefer play- ing against the Cardiff paar. He was very confident of victory, and placed chief reliance upon the forwards, whom he described as a very warm lot. He was most afraid of the and the side were likely to suffer very materially by the absence of Dohson. who was the beak, three-quarter in Scotland. The task set both sides was a big one, and whilst Wales were beaten by Eng- land rescentAy, there were excuses for the un- locked -ior reverse. It is no easy task to beat the Welsh team on iheir own ground, and the Swt&men had an herculean task to face. The teams were as follows: — WALES. I Back. I J. Bancroft (Swansea). Three-quarter backs.

PQOR ATTENDANCE FRiOM WEST WALES. Only about 100 spectators made the jonr- nev by tlie nine o'oDock train from Swansea, and very few joined the train at Neath, but at Bridgend and other Statioas a fairly large. number booked for Cardiff. Rain fell dur- ing the joarney, and the weather was foggy, baL lifted tmt when tlie train reached Gar- diff rain recommenced to fall in a steady drizzle. Straw had hoon laid on the -ardiff Anns Pai-k in x icw of the slight frost on Friday nighi. and an army of men were em- ployed in clearing it away, and by noon it Had been removed. The ground was in bet- ter condition than antixipated. Aecommo- dation had been provided for about 40,000 people, but it was expected it would be affected by the weather, and that theTe would be few p DO pie present from West Wales on aroco unt of the poor representation of that locality iu the Welsh teajn, and that the g-iTeateat attendance would be from Mon- mouthshire and the Rhondda YaMey. TYaans ran trom London. Edinburgh, amd from afl parts of South Wales. There was very little bustite in Cardiff streets on Saturday morn- Ing.
