SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 80, 1995. THE VINDICATION OF FREE TRADE. The greatest enemy of Mr Chamberlain and the Protectionists banded together under the Tariff Reform League has been the Board of Trade, with its returns of expanding trade giving a flat contradiction to all his statements and wailing prophe- cies of commercial destruction. Everything was « going" or gone, according to the Chamberlain creed of Protection, and strange to say everything refused to go, bat instead showed, according to official and non-party returns which there waa no gainsaying or manipulating, that British trade under the system of Free Trade was booming along. It continues to boom, according to the latest Government returns, and the Tariff Reform League is very silent. Mr Chamberlain is on holiday, and the League is apparently paralysed into silence at the lie direct which thv official returns of trade continue to give to their pet theories. Mr Chamberlain told the country that the test of prosperity was the imports of a country. Taken on his tests, the Board of Trade returns for the year are a great vindication of Free Trade. The past eight months have seen a record expansion of trade. Th6 Tariff Reformers tell us that trade is going. Official figures of trade done have more weight than Tariff Reformers' statements, and we find from the Board of Trade returns that during the past eight months the exports are nearly eighteen millions more than they were for the corresponding period of last year, and nineteen millions more than they were for the similar period of 1903. With imports and exports the story is the same. A corresponding in- crease of imports is recorded, and it is interesting to note that the larger portion of them came from British possessions. The Board of Trade returns are making the position of the Tariff Reformers un- tenable and vindicating the value of Free Trade. Mr Chamberlain's fallacious argu. ments cannot stand. We take more and more of the produce of our Colonies, we send them more and more of oar manufac- tures. We sell more and more of our goods to the foreigner, and if this were not enough refutation of the statements of the Tariff Reformers, home manufactures are responsible for the huge increase in our export trade. Further than this, the newly-issued Board of Trade Blue Book on the Merchant Shipping of the country proves that British Free Trade triamphs in spite of everything. Mr Chamberlain would have us believe that British Shipping was going. It was too wild a statement to say that it was gone, for British ships in the ports of the world are very visible things. But it was said to be going. It is going it absolutely refuses to be one of Mr Chamberlain's ruined industries it is going on improving. In spite of the remarkable efforts in the ship- building of foreign countries the British portion of the whole remains practically the same the greatest possible proof that, it is maintaining its own and prospering against all difficulties and foreign bounties, for which the people of the countries giving them have to pay. The many are taxed for the benefit of the few-the great principle of Protection and the ideal state of affairs favoured by the Tariff Reformers. No other industry has flourished more under Free Trade than British shipping.
DOES PROTECTION PAY?

DOES PROTECTION PAY? This, according to the Tariff Reformers and Free Traders, is the test of the fiscal policy of a nation. We have the whole growth and development of British indus- tries to prove that Free Trade pays. Cheap and cheaper commodities, cheap food, good wages, conditions of life that are equalled by no Protectionist country on the Continent, and only bettered by n tnerica. These things have been gained under Free Trade, and the Board of Trade returns continue to vindicate the wisdom and the advantages of Free Trade, as we have shown. Protectionist countries have asked the question whether Free Trade pays. It is asked by hungry and ill-fed workmen in Germany, where horseflesh is a luxury for the workers. It is asked and discussed in Protectionist France. What is the advantage of Protection ? Unfortu- nately, Protectionist countries do not publish balance-sheets. It is being dis- cussed in connection with the causes of the decline of population in France. M. Yves Guyot arrives at the conclusion that not five per cent. of the French people have any interest in Protection. The gains of Protection, the forced gains" of the system go into the pockets of the few at the cost of the many in enhanced prices of food, clothing, and the necesaaries of life. He reminds the people that all the neces- saries of life pay tribute to Protection. On the two items of bread and meat this enhanced price due to Protection amounts to 800 million francs a year. France and Germany pay a heavy toll on their food for Protection. Great Britain, which has prospered under Free Trade and enjoys cheap food, may well note the fact of Germany and France awakening to the ill- effects of the tax which Protection puts on their food. Britain groaned and starved under the Corn Laws, but to-day enjoys I cheap food under Free Trade. Germany and France are smarting under the burden of taxation which Protection puts on food and the necessaries of existence. For the benefit of a few the Tariff Reformers seek to bring the British people to the position oi the French and German worker.

The Newport Corporation are petition- iug Parliament for separate representation of the borough. For the guidance of the j committee appointed to obtain information j to help the Government in the formulation | of a redistribution scheme, the plea of Newport has been put forth. In point of population Newport should secure separate representation, whilst on every practical ground it is only just that the present arrangement of the Monmouthshire Boroughs, in which Newport is included with the town of Monmouth, should cease. The interests of the several districts and towns which are included within this Parliamentary district are entirely at variance. While Newport is an important port and industrial centre, Monmouth's interests are purely agricaltural. The two towns are rivals in many things, and this I results in the more important town being practically deprived of representation in 1 Parliament, for it would frequently happen that to advance Newport's schemes would be to do a distinct disservice to those of ¡ Monmouth. In the interests of Newport and Monmouth, and of adequate and proper Parliamentary representation for both, Newport should be given the separate Parliamentary representation which the | Borough pl4", Ottls the permanent: maintenance of the present antiquated and arbitrary-system of Parliamentary repre- sentation could justify a denial of the plea sefc forth by Newport.

General Booth is making a big effort to deal with the winter distress which comes with the approach of the colder weather and the regular increase in the army of the unemployed. His schemes of colonisation are supplementary to those efforts which have been put forth for many years, and with signal success, in finding work for the unemployed at the various Salvation Army Social depots. The General's attitude is very different from that of the hopelessly helpless Govern- ment in facing the problem of the unem- ployed, and the Salvation Army are deserving of every bit of support which they receive, and the success of past efforts warrants the General in appealing for much greater support. Locally, the Mayor of Cardiff has issued an appeal for sub. scriptions to enable the committee for feeding the breakfastless school children of the town to get to work at once. It is proposed to feed the children in four centres, and those who have takan the trouble to observe the condition of large numbers of school children will admit the I necessity of the work. Some opponents of I the scheme argue that the drunken and dissolute parents will be relieved of their parental responsibility and that the scheme will be demoralising in its temptations to parents to leave the feeding of their chil- dren to charitable effort. But the dis- tribution of the breakfasts will not be carried on indiscriminately, and even where there are known cases of wilful neglect on the part of parents would the general public see the child suffer and ultimately become a charge on the rate9 of the town because a brutal or callously indifferent, drunken parent neglected his or her duty ? The Law is weak and negligent on this point, and the institution of a system of feeding the breakfartless children, who are underfed mainly through unfortunate circumstances, will lead to attention being given to the very necessary legislation which will enable the Guardians to punish the intemperate parents who injure their children's health by their selfish, intemperate, and reckless habits,

Tragedy at Bristol, MOTHER MURDERS TWO CHILDREN. A shocking discovery was made yesterday afternoon at Bell Hill, Kiogswood, near Bristol. About a quarter to 5 Sergt. Land, who was on duty in the diatriet, was informed that a double murder had been committed, and on going to a house occupied by Geotge Hobbs, ho found the dead bodies of two children, Ethel May Hobbs, aged 4, and a baby aged nine days, the mother, Elizabeth Bortba Qobba, being discovered in another room bleeding from scratches in the throat. The woman was taken to the Infirmary and de. tained, but'ber iujories are not serious. The hus- band and her aon were home to dinner, and at that time there was nothing strange observable in the manner of Mrs Hobbs. She had scarcely recovered from her coDfine nent, and it is sup- poeed that later in the afternoon she cut the children's throats, and afterwards attempted to commit suicide, bat was prevented by the arrival of her son, who snatched away the knife. It is stated that a brother of Mrs Hobbi is at present in a lioatic asylum. From inquiries made, it appears that Mrs Hobbs had been in charge of a midwife daring her confinement, but the husband's earnings as a bootmkaer were too small to enable him to retain the services of the nurse, though she apparently needed attention and watching. A boy, aged 10, was kept at home to look after hia mother, and be was in the garden when he baard screams. On returning to the house be aw his mother attempting to cut her throat and snatched away I he lrnife. He afterwards disovered the dsal bodies of his brother and sisier.

A business man, who bad to retire in bis piime and give up an income of more than E10,000 a year on account of nervousatomach troubles, tells how he gained back health and strength simply by a little cara in the selection of his food. II Three years ago, after having spent a very goodly sum trying to save my teeth, I was obliged to have all of them extracted, for it deemed 1 would lose my mind from each super- sensitive nerves that prevented the proper mas- tication of food and gave rise to numerous stomach troubles which refused to yield to the best; medical treatment. I got badly ruu down, and was compelled to retire from active business when I should have been in my prime aud at a time when my income exceeded jEJ0,000 per annum. I delayed having artificial teeth made for 11 months in order that the jaws should have ample time to heal. I found myself almost literally starving to death, having ran down from list 61b to IOBC. I was scarcely able to crawl about. One food after another was tried, and all failed until I got into a desperately low state-in fact, my death was really reported in one of the city pavers. But I was better than a dead man even then, and one day duiiog the temporary absonce of the nurses I felt so hungry 1 managed to go to the paatry for something to a&t. 1 saw a yellow box on the shelf directly in front of me, and as it was the nearest I picked it ap and read what was printed on it about Grape-Nats food.

f Mystery of a Tunnel. BEJEWELLED LADY'S FATE. The Central News correspondent at Redhil telegraphs :—A shocking discovery was made in Merstham Tunnel on Snnday night, when an inspectorfound the dead body of a lady, who had apparently been thrown ont of the window of a train. The deceased was well dressed, and there were four diamond and gold rings on her fingers. A long silk motor-veil was thrust into the moutlr The oolice believe deceased iras murdered. In a later telegram the correspondent says ;— The line In the tunnel was clear before the last down train on Sanday, and it is evident that the deceased was a traveller in that train. None of the carriage doors were open when the train passed Redhill, and DO report was made of any- one having fallen out of the train. There afe marks on the wall of the taanel near the spot where the body was found which indi- cate that deceased must have been thrown out. The head was smashed in, and the lower part of the body was cut to pieces. The injnries to the trunk were clearly canned by the body falling beneath the train. There are no marks on the linen by which deceasad can be traced. A later telBgram from the Central New says the police-onspact foul play. owing to the fact that the woman was found gagged with a veil which had been thrnst into hor mouth. The dis- covery was made at about II o'clock, and, as a night watchman who paused through the tunnel at 10 o'clock said the body was not there then it mast have come out of a South-Ea-itern train ito Redhill and Reading, or out of a. Brighton train, both of which passed through the tunnel between 10 and 11 o'clock. The body was shockingly mutilated, having been cut piratically into tw,) halves. The head was completely smashed, and various bone3 broken. About a yard of voilial,.waii staffed into her month, and one end of the material was found crashed into her forehead. The theory of foul plav is supported by the fact that about 400 yards from the month of the tnnnel the soot with which the tunnel is lined was found scraped away in a downward course, showing that the woman's body brushed it in falling from the carriage window. Description of the Body. Dr. Cricket, of Merstham, yesterday afternoon made an examiontion of the body, which still remains unidentified. He describes the woman as being about five feet in height, well built, with round features, palish complexion, bine eyes, and brown hair. The upper and lower right molar teeth are missing. She was dressed in dark clothes, shabby patent boots, and large white hat. There were four rings on her fingers. On an article of ber onderclotbing was the name of an American firm. She was apparently unmar- ried. The doctor stales that death was due to injuries received by being run over, bnt although there is no evidence of suffocation having been caused by tbe veil, he was of opinion that there bad been foal play. The inquest will be opened to-day by Mr Percy Morrison, the coroner for East Surrey. Arguments for Foul Play. The theory entertained by Dr. Cricket, says the Central News, that the woman was gagged and afterwards thrown from the train and run over is also held bv the local police. As argu- ments tending to disprove the theory of suicide it is pointed ont that it is most unlikely that the woman would have walked a quarter of a mile into the tunnel for the purpose of throwinR her- self nnder a train, whilst if she bad jumped from the train a carriage door would undoubtedly have been fonnd open at be next station. The police theory ie, and it is certainly the most feasible assumption under the circumstances, that the womr,l iii componv with q malii who I Miss Muney,- aUempted to outrage her when the traiu entered the tunnel, that she resisted him, and was theze- upon gagged and thrown through the carriage window. The fact that no ticket was found on the deceased strengthens the belief that she was travelling with a companion who bold her tioket, and the use of her veil as a gag gives evi- dence of haste. Identification is rendered difficult by the fact that the deceased's face has been so terriblv crushed as to be quite unrecog- nisable, but the discovery of the number 245 marked on a cotton band on several articles of her uhderclothing indicates the possibility of her being an employe at some public institution. All the four tings which deceased was wearing neie gold. One bears the word Mizpab." The Inquest. The tonnel tragedy is the one topic of con- versation in the usually tranquil Surrey village The movements of tbe local police are watched with keen interest by (he villagers, a group of whom gathered in front of the hotel when the inquest opened. The police yesterday afternoon made a fnrtbtz examination of that part of tbe tunnel which was the scene of the tragic occurrence. It appears that marks made upon the soot- begrimed walls of the tunnel apparently by the hands of the deceased are eight feet five inches from the ground, which rather telis against the idea that the girl walked into the tunnel for the purpose of committing suicide, or that she fell from the train. In the latter event the marks npon the waU would doubtless have been at a less height, whereas eight feet five inches would not be an improbable height if she either herself jamped or was thrown from the train. In sitber of the latter contingencies tbe impulse of the poor girl would naturally be to throw her arms upwards. It is seated that the deceased girl at the time of her death bad been employed for about a year and a half as bookkeecer in a. dairy at Lavender Hill. The faunral of the young woman will take place at half-past 3 o otock on Friday at Watford, where ber father is bnried. The inquest was held by Mr Nightingale, deputy-coroner for Wast Surrey. Mr Fraser, solicitor, attended on behalf of the railvtaj. The Coroner said that probably all the jurymen bad already heard something about the case into which they had to inquire. It would no*, be possible to take all the evidence that day, bat he would call certain witnesses and then adjourn the inquest. Evidence was then called. Robert Henry Money, IAIlY farmer, of KinRs, ston Hill; Sarrey, identified the deceased all his pister, Mary Hopkin Money, a bookkeeper at Mr Bridge's dairies, 245, Lavender 1 Hill, where she resided. When witness saw her last alive a fortnight ago she viae bright and happy ae usual, He did not know that she had any trouble whai- over of any kind. She was unmarried and not engaged, bat visited friends on Sundays, not as associating with any paitioolar person. tie could give no explanation of her presence at Merstbam. There was nothing in her manner to suggest suicide. Deceased was 22. Emma Howe, employed at 2.45, Lavender Hill, said she was with deceased at that address last Sunday. Deceased went out at 7 o'clock, stating she was going for a little walk and would not be long. She did not say which way she was going cr whether she was going to meet anybody. Witness was not aware deceased walked out with anybody. She did not go out much on Sunday. She was in her customary good spirits. Witness bad never heard of her having any trouble of any kind. Deceased took with ber a black knitted parae and handkerchief in her hand, she having no pocket in hei dress. The purse appeared to be rather full of money. Witness did not know that deceased had any gentlemen acquaintances. The brother, recalled, said deceased used to be ran after by several young men, bat she took little notice of them. Sbe knew a. Joung man at Brentford, and another at Harrow, bnt witness did not think these men knew each other or bad ever met. Deceased got ber wages on Saturday, but no money bad been found in her box or room. Mills Howe, re-called, isid alia bad never heard that deceased had banked money. She had not known tIr to stay out all night before. Miss Frances Golding, confectioner sassistant, at 2, Statioo-aporoacb, Clepham Junction, who knew the deceased well, gave similar evidence as to Miss Money's respectability. She came to witness's shop about seven o'clock on Sanday evening last alone to bay chocolates, which she paid for out of the purse mentioned Deceased said she was going to Victoria Station,bat did not say why, or mention any train time. Miss Money made a little joke about tbe cbocolatee. Railway Inspector Peacock then repeated bis statement as to the diseovery of the body. He said there war6 marks slantins downwards on the tannel wall, commencing about eight feet high, and continuing to the ground, It seemed to him as if something bad struck the wall, and bounded back and forward, for some places were unmarked. There were no blood marks except where the mutilated body lay. The tunnel wall woald pro- bably be about two feet ten inches from, a pass- ing train. An open carriage door woald not touch the wall. The top mark on the wall would be about on a level with anybody getting out of u compartment. I Dr. Crickets described the injuries and the result of the pest-mortem. The top of the skall was taken off in a line slanting from the riRht eye upwards, apparently by a carriage wheel. Thn right side of the face was smashed in flat, the nasal bones were fractured, there was a frac- ture of both thighs, the left thigh being almost wrenched from the bodv, and tbere were other mutilations on tbe lower part of tbe body, as well ai bruisej ou the arms. There were some marks on be hand and-fingers as if »b* bafl been l I gripped. Inside the month there was laceration on the roof behind the front teeth, which migh have been done either with the thumb nail or the ferule of a stick. There was also a reddish mark on the right side of the lower lip. Those latter injuries were fonaistant with the idea of something being poshed into themontb. He was of opinon death was not dne to snffoeation before leavingithe carriage, but from ■ injuries caused afterwards. Polioe-constable Carr deposed to finding a por- ton of a eilk scarf over the nose, and the mouth was fall of it. He palled lout 10 or 12 inches of scarf from the mouth. It was jammed tightly in the month. The body was warm when found. No purseor handkerchief was found in the tannel. The Coroner said that was all the evidence he conld put before the jury at the present, and the inquest would be adjourned until balf-past 10 I o'clock on Monday. Victim's Fiance Interviewed.

He resided at 2, Frances-villas, Milton-road, Wealdstone, a few yards from the shop formerly kept by Miss Money's brother, j It was while she was engaged as book-keeper to her brother that be made her acquaintance. They became engaged, and Mies Money was j wearing a ring given her by Bell-Chambers at tbe time of ber trngic death. Tbe state- ment that she bad not seen Bell-Chambers I since Christmas is incorrect. They frequently saw each other, and via recently as Jane last Miss Money paid a visit to Wealdstone.
