TRADES UNION CONGRESS. THE NORWICH SITTINGS. The Trades' Union Con#n»s was resumed f at Norwich on Tuesday morning, when the presidential address was delivered by Mr. Frank J. Delves. After welcoming the dele- gates to the city, he referred to the compara- tively unorganised state at labour m Sast I Anglia. lliis was due, in the first piøoo, to lli*> iaot thcut Norwich woe almost out of the industrial a-orld, and they were surrounded on all sides by agricultural labourers. Another difficulty aroie 1ft the natwre of the staple industries, winch enabled their wives aiid I sisters to compete with them. 11 lis would not be <ioiu> nway with until all womoi workers be*vun» their equal ooimailcK, reoen equal pay for equal work. Not, only in thi1i country I and its Golonies. but in America and every oountry m Europe, the sooial question was the one vital issue upon the aoiutiioii of which the future of nation and peoples seemed to depend. Methods must be deter- mined by political and- other conditions. Mtanwhile there was only one open and avowed method which they should perhaps be united in utterly repudiating, and that was the cruel and vicious use of gunpowder, dagger, and dynamite. They relied upon wise, indepen- dent, political action and Trades Unionism for the redress of the wroug under which they laboured- Legislation would become more and more their watchivo d m the future, until the old weapon, the strike, became like the dis- carded flintlock of a past age. The result of the present state of labour conditions was over population, followed by stagnation. This tra- vesty of industrial organisation was brought about by the fact that the markets dominated the men, instead of the men controlling the markets. The only direction in which they could look for the ultimate solution of their industrial problem was that of collectivism. What Unionists must do for themselves Parlia- ment must do for the workers as a. whole. He did not think that one uniform day of eieht hours could at once be forced in all trades. Pei haps each trade must lie left to determine for itself whether it should come under a trade exemption clause, but trfcdes must A'ork to- gether. H mU8t he trade c,cm1ptiou, and not local option. Unless organised labour was to be swamped by unorganised, un- employed lalxiur, tliev insist insist on tdeps being taken immediately to relieve the labour market. The age of child labour must be raised, women must be paid tiie same as men, tiie Ii-vtirs muet !>e rerlucetl, and the unemployed must be ab-1 oorhed, lnsttsid of fighting for work they must (.iocide u. He was opisieed to prevent- ing immigration. The remedy was to be found in strict sanitary laws ¡¡¡1I.1 porujot trades' organisation. Ho welcomed the near i advent of ten thousand nuish councils fnr he lwked UPOII them h, improve the 1at of: the worker.

OPENING OF THE INQUEST. The inquest opened on Tuesday at the .King's Arms Hotel (before Mr Lawrence Holder, I coroner), there being also in attendance Police- superintendent Bryiming and other police officials. I The Coroner, in opening the inquiry, said ho was sure that the minds uf all present were filled with dismay a.t the terrible calamity of the previous day. A large party of pleasure- II seekers were in a moment plunged into the' fiCa., auda great many lives were lost, the exact number I of which was not yet exactly known. He only proposed that afternoon to. call evidence of identification, postponing all quastions as to the capsizing of the boat, and tho question of negli- gence, if there had been any negligence, to a later period. Joseph Hainor, of Tanners, Ramsbottom, identified the body of Samuel Brooks its that of hill uuole. He also identified his aunt and Ann Williams. Scuarf. Watmugh, wool buyer, I Bradford, identified Mr. Joseph Fawoett Carter, of the Bradford Observer staff, and Mr. Carter's daughter Doris.

They are those of a mid-'ue-a«t>d married woman and a girl, apparently about six- teen years of age, and are believed So be those I of Mrs. and Miss Robinson, of Burnley. A Press Association telegmm says:—Nine |iersons are still reported to lie mis-sing, making ilie total number lout 25. The nine survivors bring up the total at present ascertained to I have been on board at the thats of tho accident to 34. A most painful feature of the disaster lies in the fact of so many members of the game families beintt amongst tho victims, Vis- tressing scenes were witnessed when the victims' friends and relatives arrived at the mortuary on TuescUo"- .IHwiial Whitehead. oMon- f.pinner, of Bverdor-lane, Burnley, broke down foropietely on identifyinifthe bo^ift'WTus Mn Richard, aged 17, and liie Sister-in-law. Ann. Invhini, his grief bouig intensified by the fact that his wife and infant son are amongst the miwing vi'tinm. The cases of Alice Green- wood -Hid John Parkinson, brother and ni-.lor, both residing in iiastliam-street, Burnley, are also particularly sad ones. The former, who is amongst the missing, leaves four orph<wi oliil dren unprovided for, and the latter a widow and fi\e young children, thus suddenly bereft of th ir breadwinner. The untimely end uf t Jftecph Fa wee ft Carter, a member of the report- ing staff of the" Brndiord Observer,' who, with his wi1\> and child, is numbered with the dead, caused the utmost consternation amongst hi* fellow journalists. It is stated that Mrs. Carter was reluctant to go sailing but t-ui.- nuttod to the wish of her husband. A SUBSCRIPTION LIST TO BE OPENED.

THE BULLET-PROOF COAT. MILITARY EXPERTS PRONOUNCE IT USELESS. A Central News teles ram from Berlin on Monday says:—The official Reich sans-Aqer I this morning publishes a report concerning Herr Dowe's much advertised bullet proof I cuirass. It appears that ill May the inventor I presented two of his cuirasses for examination by a committee of experts, when both of the so- oalled bullet proof coats were pierced by bullets from service rifles. In the following month Herr Dowe introduced a third coat to the notice of the committee, which proved to be as vulnerable as the two previously submitted The com- mittee thereupon came to the conclusion that the cuirass did not fulfil its purpose, and told Herr Dowe that his coat was useless.

DR. JOSEPH PARRY IN AMERICA. PROGRESS OF HIS HOLIDAY TOUR. From the tenour of a further series of letters received from Dr. Joseph Parry, of the Uni- versity College of South Walt*) and Monmouth- shire, who is now spending a holiday in America, it would appear that the eminent Welsh musi- cian has received coidial welcomes wherever he has gone. His last letters v*re from Dan- ville (Pa.) and Scranton, and in his third letter he describe* a visit to Johnstown, where the great disaster of 1889 took place. "Nearly the whola of the town, says Dr. Parry, "has been re-built Along the river for five miles run all extensive eceel works, called the Cam- brian. at which from 5,000 to 6,000 hands are employed. Electricity is largely used by the population, which is about 35,000. At Pitts- burg (Pa.) there are 45 rolling mills. and elec- tricity and electric forces re^n supreme in this city, which is remarkable for its commercial enterprise. Here my friend and fellow country- man, Mr. T. C. Jenkins, has enormous stores, covering a whole square, six storeys high. The goods are taken by means of a railway into the very centre of the building, ancl nearly 200 hands are employed. Dr. Parry goes on to describe the beauties of Youngs town, Ohio (where he met many old friends), and the wonders of Cleveland, which he visited on July 28. In Cleveland there are nine rolling mills, one of them employing 4,000 men. He found here many of the friends of his youth, and his lecture was quite a success, it being followed by a fine selection of vocal music, discoursed by an able male party, coin- prising some of his old pupil". Dr. Parry's last letter we quote almost in exteiiso. It is as follows In my last I wrote of beautiful Cleve- land, Ohio. My next visit was to the charming town of Lima, where I stayed with mv dear old Abervstwith pupil. Mrs. Daniel A lit' veil Bell. Two other pupils, formerly of the same college, came here to meet me, and there was a delight- ful re-union. Mrs., Nellie Owen Hihier was one, and she came fully 350 miles. Mr. David Davies, Cincinnati, was the other, who lived some 159 miles away. I gave my lecture, asstfted by fine selections by my three pupils, at Ganer. This is a magnificent agricultural dis- trict. of fine and wealthy Welsh people, all from Montgomeryshire. They have a fine church, and one of the most popular of p.'aces for a ooncert or lecture. 011 previous ocxxtsioiis wlJ«1 1 visited thin plaoe i was always welcomed by a full church, and oo tli:time. The ever-popular Dr". Jones and Davies, who have practised to- gether for full 30 )eai-s, are always kind and geniai. (t is now 28 years since my fiivt visit to this place, some ten miles from the ratmav de-pot of Lima. The next day. after some six hours train ride, the great city oi Cincinnati wai lynched, and I once more i-tood by the house where "Undo Tom's Cahin"- was written. 1 also found that I stayed the night witnin a mile and a half of the locality where the plot of my son Haydn s last opera, "Miami." was laid. The next evening J left by the 8.45 train for, and landed the next morning at eight jn, the great city of Chicago. I npi-nt. here the gm.ter part of a week. Tongue and pen must ever fail to de-criLe this the greatest city, in many respects, of modern time*. 1 foumi here no less (lian nine churches for the coloured people, with choirs, organists, and Oi-chfuuas of their own. After a whole night's travelling (in a sleeper) I came to that Jiiosjt ideali-<tic of place; Chatauqua, N.Y. Lake. Chatauqun is 2b miles long, and con- tains some charming islands. The village itself is hidden in the foliage. Now. iu the months of -luce, .Inly, and August there are no less than 12,000 to 15 000 visitors here, consisting of students and the most learned and distinguished professors, reverends, and priu- oi PNb, HOC only of America, but from ail parts of the world. It is a university in Para- dise. There are fine college, and in almost a.ll department* the amphitheatre is a sight worth seeing Some 8.000 learned people listening to lectures, sermons, and the singing of th > whole of the congregation m praising God has an effeot not to he forgotten. Their musical college was to rue an attractive feature. The principal (Dr. 11.

I TRADE iiEPORTS. SWANSEA. EXCHANGE, Tuesday. There was a large attendance of manufac- turers and buyers on 'Change to-day. The pig iron warrant market continues to strengthen, and the quotations are slightly increased upon last week, and with the depletion oi the stocks, I both in Scotch and Middlesborough. it is a matter of surprise that the advauce in the price matter of surprise that the advauce in the price has not been greater all round. In sympathy with the improvement in pig iron, thsro is more doing- m the sales of tin-plate bars, and for which an increase in price is stated to be obtained. There is a slightly increased demand I experienced in hut the largn atoeks' hoid inanticipa* ion of the reduction in the duty 1 will hn-va to be cleared off before any activity will be felt iu the trade.
