The Fund is Growing. ( Are You Helping ?   :W. ."1
THE FUND' .TO-DAY,.'
THE FUND' TO-DAY,. Where are the Ten Pounders? 1 The most striking thing about the Widows' and Orphans' Fund and (Children's Summer Some) appeal to-day, is a most moving letter which the hon. secretary has re- ceived from the Blind Institution. „W o give it in full. Blind Institution, Swansea, November 13th. Dear Sir,— After reading the King's Proclamation to the children on Tuesday, I read them your article on tha widows and children of the fallen. They were much impressed, and agreed to make a collec- tion towards the fund for helping them. I therefore have very much pleasure in enclosing 30s. for the purpose. Sincerely wishing you success, Yours faithfully, J. HIghmore, Matron. A CHALLENGE TO THE TEN I POUNDERS. Sir Charles and Lady Buthen, u {forwarding a promise of a tejl guinea donation to. the Fund, go à. little further still. They say that, if nine others will subscribe ten pounds each they will double their present subscription. As we have already tried to emphasise, the success of the Fund must eventu- ally be determined by the amount idi the small subscriptions received. It is magnificent to receive the 100 guineas and the £100, but If the 1 .Fund is to reach the total aimed at, the old proverb must be regardea. "That every mickle makes a nnlckle." Therefore we again appeal to those who are in a position to send along the shilling and the pound only. Their contribùtions -will be as welcome as the larger ones. One of the nine ten pound donations has been already promised. This a&eraon -In. Thomas Evans, Sf.O.'H., stated to us his intention of giving five pounds, which he will double as one of the ninei subscriptions necessary to meet Sir Charles and Lady But-hen's challenge. Mr. Wilfred H. Thomas, of 11, Cambrian-place, sends £10, and "A few Swansea Friends" have donated 12s. We hope to-morrow to be able to announce a greatly extended list. The time is growing short. There Is much 'to do, and we are quite certain. Vjefore the close of the year I the object in view will have been attained. A STAFF DONATION. Another promising contribution— which we feel confident will be emulated in other quarters In Swansea—comes to the hon. see from the Cambria Daily Leader mechanical staff to-day. The sum of VB 12s. has been collected by the Typographical Association mem- bars and the Stereotyping staff .d the newspaper, which has been for- warded by the clerk of the "chapel, Mr. D. B. Jenkins. The hon treasurer is Mr. David Roberts, J.P., 61, Wind-street, Swansea, And the hon. secretary: Mr. J. D. Williams, I "Cambria Daily Leader," v Swansea. with Mr. H. Stanley L. Cook, East Burrows, Swansea, &,a chairman, All of whom will be glad to re ceive your donation. SUBSKCR I PTIONS. l. 8. d. Sm wansea Branch of the British Bed Cross Society (per Mr&. C. H.

r A CLYDACH ANALYST. j
r A CLYDACH ANALYST. 0 And The Consolidated Welsh Mines, Ltd. We have received a letter, dated 9th November, from Mr. W. S. Lambert, of 12, Park-road, Clydach, referring to the publication of an advertisement with re- ferent to the Consolidated Welsh Mine8, Ltd. i Mr. Lambert says that in the advertise- ment he is represented as being reepon- eible for the analysis of certain concen- trates. It is true, he says, that the figures given originated with him, but they werf. communicated to a person, whose name does not appear in the advertisement, for his private information, and were never intended for publication. The samples he received indirectly, and he tells us that he does not even know that they origi- nated in the area forming the property to be worked by tke. advertised company. He further complains that the figures were embodied in a letter, of which only a part has been employed. Mr. Lambert add-, that the name of his employers, the Mond Nickel Co., was not used by him, and that they have no connection whatever with the matter. We have put ourselves in communica- tion with the Consolidated Welsh Mines I' concerned, and in reply they write us that, had they thought Mr. Lambert- would have the slightest objection to his assay being published, they would not have used it.

Captain Steane was at once called to the witness-box. He is a handsome ma.n, and was stylishly attired, d he answered the questions put to mm with i composure. j MARRIED IN AUGUST. I He stated that be was the husband of the deceased. He was an ex-Army officer, and lived in Carlisle-place, West- minster. His wife was 2U years of age. He inari-ied her on the 30th of August of this year. She was then living at her own flat in St. James s-piace. After the marriage they went to tit.

He was not at Claridge's (where the Victory Ball took place) that night, My wife did not dance that night, but J it was impossible for her to do no. Dur- s ing the evening she seemed very happy, mostly at the thought of going back to the flat again. We had no quarrel of any kind. My wife did not drink to ex- cess, and that night we had a bottle of j champagne between us. When we re- turned from the ball, at about half-past j two in the morning, we chatted about things in general. My wife said, I am so happy to be back here, and .so glad because you are here. I aon't feel any sort of effects of that awful time and the occurrence that happened here. I PREVIOUS ATTEMPT. I The Coroner: What was she referring I to? II' Witness: She attempted to take her | life before. I The Coroner: Over some love affair? I Witness: Over the hard life she had led all her life, and the terrible things for her that had happened in it. She had a love affair a year or eighteen j I months ago. She was engaged and j broke it off. Was it then she attempted to take her life?—Yes. What means did she adopt?—The same as far as I know—poison. But I haven't the slightest idea of what kind. I Did she talk that night r-1 (HIt was all she said. She then said, Tony, j you are a guest here, and all my?gwst? have always had a wonderful time, so don't sit on that couch.

IONE BIG U ¡ '0 N Torn Mann on the Coming Change. In an interview whk?tf»jr-iKf>aily Ex- press Labtfur hud wiili Mr. Tom Mann, the netv general secretary of the A.S.E., expressed, iK-cr.rding to the aceo<unt. given, some very strong views about the future of trades unionism, "I am rot going to fk,t!t the opinions I or convictions of any of those associated j with me," he said. You know my record and my characteristics, but as general secretary of the A.S.E. 1 am going to build on the basis that has lx.en laid down. I intend to work with the least possible friction between ni.-vself-Snd other people." NEWEST TRADES UNIONISM. The workers have little or nothing op from Parliaments, because the èi<î. lenities of the workers are primarily economic, and only incidentally politit^rl and social.. Social and political condi- i tioas will automatically fall into their j right places if the economic conditions are rfiitled present-day evolutionary develop- ments in industry," said Tom Mann, "demand at least the suparsession of the ( existing sectional trade unions, and the recognition of the fact that, for concerted j action to be really effective the whol-o field of a given industry must be the area on which action must be taken." We hare to drop our sectional trade unionism. We must have one union, governed by a single executive, for one industry. Every man, skilled, semi- skilled, or unskilled, must be regarded j simply as a worker. NO CRASH ANTICIPATED. Our power, when it is obtained, would be primarily one of organisation, and in many instances that would manifest it- self at the discussion table, and the mnIli- festation would suffice. If not, organisa- tion, by industry implies a co-relation dl all sucli industrial organisations with a common understanding among all workers in the country. I am not anticipating anything in the nature of a big crash. There would not bmuoh chance for any alternative policy by the time our organisation was com- plete." A significant pendant to the interview was the information that ten trado unions, having a meml>ers>liip of 70.000, have just voted in favour of amalganvfi- ting with the A.S.E., which, with a mem- bership now of 100,000. will soon be re- ohristened the Amalgamated Engineering Union.
