The Aew York exchange ue- olined slightly to 3.79J, and t'iia franc- depreciated, the- Paris cheque moving up to V.75. This latter change caused the Belgian exchange to advance to just o-( L- 40.00, but there was some improvement in the Italian lire at ami Swedish rates weakened. bllt GCfmHu marks rose to 185 and Finn murks to 127;.

 2nd REPLAY. ?M? iM?'i!??i s"i§ ?r?? w? Th S »1i.II The Swans Meel Giilingham. I AT l' i if) f\li"\?:"1 A T CARDIFF, -?- I NO SCORE AT INTERVAL (By "CYGNET.") j For the third time of asking, Swansea I lown and (iilliiighain met to-day on the ground of the Cardiff City Club in the second re-play of the (ith qualifying round of the English Cup. Those who saw the re-play at Swansea last week were quietly confident that the Swans had only to produce their real form to account for the Kentish Club in no ijn- certain fashion. Jack Williams, who had played so good a game at centre forward against Plymouth Argyle, was again chosen for that position, and it was felt that his robust style would mean much to the attack of the Welsh side. W. Y. Brown was rested, and Ivor Brown, who stood down on Saturday was once more I included. Johnson, came in at goal, as Crumley is not eligible for cup ties. I SWANSEA TOWN.—Johnson; Robson and Nicholas; Durnin, Collins, and Oglcy; Hole, Ivor Jones, Jack Williams, Ivor Brown ,and Harry Thomas. GILLlIsGHAM.Brandfield; Buchanan and Leslie; Elliott, A. Le#' and A. Steele; Ransell, H. Lee, Reed. g. Steele and Kelly. j SMALL ATTENDANCE. I Titere way only a samll attendance when the teams fielded, oiily al)oi-it present. Swansea won the toss, andaftcr a clever movement on the right Hole sent in a good shot, which Leslie tried to get I his foot to. In doing so he, however, con- ceded a corner, and from this Ogley sent in a shot wh.ch just luis?d the net. Play went to Swansea? end after this, where Robson was prominent, and shortly after Ivor Brown began to make headway. Hole eventually cpntret^ along the ground but Buchanan got to the ball before Jones, and put Gillinghain on the attack once more, a corner being conceded. Harry Thomas took the leather down to the Kent citadel, where A. Steele was lucky to clear. Still the Swans pressed, and Harry Thomas should have shot ■ mudl lower than he did, the ball goihg over the bar. There was some clever play by the Giilingham halves, as a result of which the Welshmen had to defend. Eventually, however, Ivor Brown in- itiared a clever movement, which was only I' broken up by! a determined movement on the part of A. Lee. 'J'iiis gave Gilling- ham an opportunity. A. Kelly was ) warmly applauded for cleverly beating Tiobson. He centred beautifully, and Ogley, to clear, had to concede a corner. A moment later Kelly again boat batli Robson and Durnin, but nothing accrued, and Durnin, with a nice, overhead trans- fer, sent the ball towards the English- men's citadel, but A. Lee again cleared, and mid-field play followed, after which eEed fielded a first timer. There were more cries of H Go on, the Swans! and Hole made progress on the right. ONE-BACK GAME. I Ivor .Tones was off-side when he took a I transfer, And one noticed for the moment that Giilingham were resotting to the one- I back game. Half-time: SWANSEA :TOWN-Nit GILLINGHAM—Nil.

ABERAVON MELEE. | Three Men Sent to the Assizes. I Much interest Vas taken in the Police Court proceedings at Aberavon on Wed- nesday when Edward Griffiths and Chns- Williams, steehvofkers, Aberavon, Joseph Flynn. a former Swansea and Aberavon footballer, and Timothy-Lyons were summoned for inflicting prfievous bodily harm oft .William Daries (32) labourer living at Green Patk-atieet. A beravon. Mr. Dan Perkins prosecuted, Mr; Vivian Deer represented Griffiths, and Williams, Mr. L. M. Thomas represented Flynn and .A l r. C S. Wf, ] ,ile an Mr. C S. Welnle appeared for !Lyoh«. Mr. Porkim pointed out that Since the previous hearing summofcfces had been issued :?Iajl1s,L VlvTlt1 ntid Lyons. He had also the opnorhtnitv of taking prosecu- tor's evidence, and he was now satisfied that Griffiths bad nothing to do with the as ault. GRIFFITHS DISCHARGED!. I Griffiths was then discharged. Mr. Perkins continuing, said that on the night of December (5th, the prose- cutor was coming from a picture hall at 1.00, and went to the Castle Hotel for a pint of beer. Seated by the door was Flynn, who said something to him about lighting. Davies took no notice, and called tor the beer, but as there vas such a crowd he had to go out before ho was served. Ih Water-street there was a crowd around a man named Willis, who was on the floor. ALLEGED. KNUCKLE-DUSTER. j Prosecntor went to pick him up, and as he was doing so, Charles Williams i deliberately struck him on the nose with his list, and which he said there was a four rringer kncckle-duster, and be fell. hen he was trying to get up, Flynn kicked him on the side of the face and rushed hack into the crowd Lvons then kicked him and he became un- conscious. Prosccutor was taken to the doctor and afte ra few days owing to scep- tic poisoning he was sent to the hospital, where he remained for eight days. He csiill wore bandages. Dr. K. Davies gave evidence of medical attendance. Prosecutor gave his evidence and stated that when he went to the Gatsle Hotel Flynn was .eated by the door and when he opened it the latter asked f liim what he was shoving- for and whether !:o wanted to figlff. Witness was per- fectly sober, and said he had had no think that day. He confirmed his advo- cate's description of the assault. in reply to Mr, Lewis M. Thomas, Davies said he knew Flynn when he saw hi Hi at the Castle Hotel, because he had seeit him play football. Two witnesses were caH?d for the pro- êcMn' but they could not \deiimt&b' identify Hie persons who had committed the assault.

_-The Cause cf the High…
  The Cause cf the High I Cost cf Living. Speakmg at the Bovril Australian Estates Meeting, the Chairman of Bovril Limited said — I ph-culd like to take the opportunity of saying something about the continued liig't cost of living. Before the War, competition to sell had cut prices /low:i to a low level, but now the competition'"to buy has reverted the process, and, the eonsi,ii-cr; Having intimated to the seller that he must have the goods, Itie seller charges what people arc prepared to pay and passes on that iiiipreFsiDn to the middleman, who passes 1,to k to the I)i,?., d -Lic,- back to the producer the atmosphere created when buyers insist on having goods at any cost. "It is not of particular interest to any- body right through from the producer to the consumer to try to work economically and to pass on the goods at a reacxmable ,s the only party who really strives to avoid un- reasonable prices, because he comes in direct con'ract with the consumer. iu An efficient and up-to-date manu- facturer may he in a position to sell more cheaply than others, but if he dofe so he sometimes feel that he may be making a present to someone in between himself and the consumer; and a retailer who sells at a low price has got to run the risk of another trader claiming that his similar product is dearer because it is of better quality. It is only in the case of a .standard proprietary article that it is worth the while of everybody concerned to show the citsauier that his intereL are being lodked after. In one instance this combination of circumstances has led to a national food product being sold at the same price and, also being of the same quality to-day as it was in July, 1914. I refer to Bovril. A policy which at first sight might appear to be pure philanthropy has in I fact built up a goodwill which money alone could not buy, and which is of I far greater val ue' to the Company than I excessive profits."

A MIYI A riFOR D U G H TS. Provisional Order Refused. Toe Ammanford Council, who were specially convened on Tuesday night to consider whether opposition ought to be offered to the .plication of Mr. William Herbert for a Provisional Order re the electric n.frhiiricr of the district, had it reported to them that the House of Commons, in view of the Transport Bill, had decided that no provisional orders be granted .this session.. The question of opposition then droPl'cd.: The Council, however, decided that a strong letter be written to Mr. Herbert calling upon him to attend immediately to several street lamps which had been in clarknession many nights. The Chairman (Mr. J. H. Lawley) stated that several lights which had been out at Tirydail for three or four weeks were in that morninsr. SWANSEA SETS EXAMPLE. On the invitation or Mr. Thos. Fletcher, it was decided, in view of the Council's extension proposals, to pro- cure a copy of the Swansea Extensions Rill, so that they, may be guided some- 'I what. A breezy discussion ensued on a report I of the TTer«irfi? Committee, who stated having had under consideration pre- liminary wcrk for the formulation of a housing scheme for the Council's ap- porval. Sites were also discussed, but. finally it wan thought advisable to have a conference with an experienced mem- ber of the staff of the Divisional Hous- ;n, Commis"ioner. Tlie chairman* intimated, at the close, that the Peace Celebrations Committee were organising a re-union of the dis- charged men of the towp at the Drill Hall on the 7th prox., and he asked for the assistance of the CunciEs vtorkmcn in decorating the hall for the occasion, and doing (,tl.)er %vork. This was readily granted. _h
MOULDERS' DISPUTE I
MOULDERS' DISPUTE I Sir Robert Horns to Mediate. Sir Charles Macara and Drift." It is officially announced that Sir I Roheft Home, wl o is at present on holi- day in the country, will retuio to Lon- don this morning and give his immediate attention to bring about a settlement in the mouiders' dispute. Meanwhile, the officials of the Ministry are continuing their negotiations betweeD the two parties. Sic David Shaciaeton, of the Ministry of Labour, had an interview yesterday with Mr. Arthur Henderson with reference to Lhe position. Events are expected to move rapidly when Sir Robert Home returns to-day. On his arrival in London from Scotlnnd, Sir Robert will confer with Sir Allan Smith, M.P., Chairman of the Engineer- ing Employers' Federation, and Mr. Arthur Henderson, M.P., president of the ironfounders. The conference will take place at the Ministry of Labour., and it is hoped that the outcome will be a speedy re-opening of the negotiations between the employers and lie employed, which will lead to a settlement of the moulders' strike. MEN AND 5s. INCREASE. It is authoritatively stated that the statement published to the effect that the moulders are prepared to accept an in. crease of 5s. is inaccurate. All they have done is to offer to submit the acceptance of this amount to a ballot vote of the I men without any previous return to work. The employers, it is pointed out, are in an obviou i difficulty as the 5s. increase is a Court of Arbitration award, which has been accepted by all the other unions m the engineering and shipbuilding trades, who were parties to the agree- ment, and as such they think it should be acepted without a ballot. "DRIFTING HOPELESSLY." I Ln a message to the Press Sir Cuarles I Macara states:—Week after week the moulders' strike drifts on hopelessly, and is causing ever-increasing unemployment. I We have a Ministry of Labour of com- paratively recent appointment, and a more Mt'ent!y appointed Industrial Court, also mostly composed of "Government officials, and supposed to he on the lines of the Industrial Council appointed by the Government in 1911. The last-named was composed of experienced heads of great organisations of capital and lahour, representing the staple industries of the country. Since the outbreak of war this reouncil has never been used, and the reason why there is not a public demand that it should be » called together is a mystery. Both sides to the dispute could bring their best advocates before the council, which would give an entirely im- partial decision. The Industrial Council is above all otheX the body that eorild deal effectively with this deplorabla strike. PARLIAMENTARY CDMM ITTEE AND I v 'LOCAL DISPUTE. There was an important development in connection with the moulders' dispute yesterday afternoon, when the Parlia- mentary Committee of the Trade UnSon Con"re§s decided to .invite ths amiofis ccncerned in locaI dispute at Wes! Bromwich to meet them in London t.?.i? morning, ah<) (lid unions concerned in the naH?na! dispute to meet them this after- noon. The object is to endeavour b clearing away the local issue to make possible the re-op»ning of negotiations fi, f a settlement of the national dispute Hones are entertained that this effort, combined with the Ministry of Labour's Sfcod offices, will result in'the re-opening • of negotiations.
