CARDIFF. At the Angel Hotel, Cardiff, the annual meet- ing of the members of the Cardiff Cricket Ciub was held on Tuesday evening, under the presi- dency of Mr W. ij Yorath. Amongst those present were Messrs A. W. Morris, W. A. Harry, J. H. Brown, R. Jones, J. JJ. Evans, R. A. S. Diiucne, J. H. Edward?, K. W. Hodge, D. Da vies. G. V/. Swain, T. Farrance, C. A. Dnnlop, H. D. Dunlop, D. Mullens. G. D. Lennox, II. A. Wilis (lion, treasurer), T. Foster, C. J. Seed, F Foster, G. P. Thomas, R. D. Jenkins, H. M. Ingiedew, and 13. and G. Cipric.i-TI)e report which was presented, and the balance-sheet which accompanied it, showed a balance to the credit of the net revenue account of L15 18 4d. The report states :— In view of the steady increase in the subscrip- tions, the committee decided that the train fare of members playing in the out matches during the season 1G92 should be paid by the club but, contrary to anticipations, the subscriptions for that season, instead of increasing, have fallen off considerably, and the result of this ..decrease,. with the additional expense of tho train fares, is an adverse balance of £12. The committee regret that, under the circumstances, they cannot recommend the payment of the fares by the club during the season 1393. This is much to be regretted, as the result of last year's outlay was, so far as cricket was concerned, a complete success, only one match being lost. The committee have to record, with deepest regret, the loss through death of two of the club's vice- Presidents, Messrs Benjamin Jones, and J. P. Jones, both of whom were prominent members of the clubs a few years ago, ana always took an active Dart in furthering the clubs interests. It ia earnestly hoped that the members will assist the committee in strengthening the Club by lillro. ducing new members. Joseph Scott, of Kirkby- in-Ashfield, Nottingham, has been engaged a.s professional to the club for the season 1893. Prize bats were given by Messrs Archibald D. Dawnay and A. Thackeray, and were won by Messrs R. P- Svveet-Escott and H. F. Thomas, the highest aggregate scores in the first and second elevens respectively. A discussion ensued upon this report, and it was observed that the outstanding subscriptions amounted to -041. If these subscriptions could be got in there would be no difficulty experienced in paying the fares of members for off matches. It was unanimously determined that more stringent measures be adopted towards getting in sub- scriptions in arrear, and that the committee be asked to reconsider their recommendations.—The report and balance-sheet were then adopted.— The officials of the club were then appointed. The Marquis of Bute was re-elected president for the ensuing year, and a cordial vote of thanks was accorded him for granting- to the club the use of the Cardiff Arms Park The vice- m-psidents were re elected, with the substitu- tion of the name of Mr W. H. Williams in the place of Judge Gwdyin Williams; and the committee as followsMessrs A. W. Morris, F. Foster, G. W. Lennox, K W. Hodge, T. M. Barlow, D. Davies, P. L. Perry, H. M. Ingiedew, G. P. Thomas, H. A. Wills, and J. H. Browne." The CHAIRMAN stated that the present hon. secretary (Mr J. G. Clark) had placed his resig- nation in the hands of the committee, and although they had endeavoured to prevail upon that gentleman to reconsider his decision, they bad failed to persuade him.—Numerous com- plimcntary referencps were made to the past vices of Mr Clark, and subsequently Mr J. D. Evans was appointed to the position of hon jrary secretary, Mr T. Farrance was re-elected hon. treasurer, and Mr Ivor Roberts hon. auditor. Ma J. H. Brain was re-elected captain of the first eleven, and Mr J. G. Clark vice-captain Mr Mullens being appointed captain of the second deven, and Mr T.

NEWPORT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. IMPROVEMENT OF THE USK DISCUSSED. The monthly meeting of the Newport Cham- ber of Commerce was held, at the Town-hall, on Tuesday. illr E. H. Watts, presided. Amongst the members present were Messrs W. E. Heard. W. A. Baker, M. Mordev, L. H. Hornby, J. S. Stone, C. Kirby, R. Wilkinson, A. H. Tapson, F. J. Heybyrne, and others.—Mr W. A. Baker, in moving a resolution supporting the action of the Harbour Commissioners in their scheme for the improvement of the Usk, said the river had made the port of Newport, and it would be a wise policy for the ratepayers to improve the river. He urged that the action of the Harbour Com- missioners should be supported in every possible way.—Mr T. Watson seconded the nijtioii, and spoke in favour of the action of the Harbour Commissioners.—Mr R. Wilkinson moved an amendment opposing the purchase of a dredger, and recommending the removal of the gravel patch by contract. Mr W. M. Heard seconded the amendment, and contended that any im- provements which were necessary could be carried out by contract at much less cost than if a dredger was purchased. Ihe President, who had an open mind upon the question of the purchase of a dredger, said that some improvement was necessary in the navigation of the river.—Mr A. H. Tapson was called to take the chair, the president having to leave, and Mr Mordey con- tinued the discussion, speaking strongly in favour of the policy enunciated by the Harbour Commissioners. Ultimately the questions were deferred for consideration at a special meeting of the Chamber.—The re- port of the special committee to consider a scheme for the improvement of the harbour was presented by the secretary. The committee considered the present Acts from which the Harbour Commissioners derive their powers and reported that the Commissioners possessed powers for the construction of a jetty and approach road near the Old Dock, with a corresponding pier on the opposite side of the river, near the Great Western Wharf, and the establishment of a ferry between those points. The Commissioners also hnvQ powers to provide wharves, quays, pontoons, Jetties, warehouses, &c, but they do not possess any powers for the compulsory purchase of the lands necessary for such works, the compulsory powers only extending to the purchase of land for ferries. In view of the foregoing, the Com- mittee could not see that the Harbour Com- missioners posoessed any power to carry out the ldéa as to acquire public wharves. As to tho Sen era 1 improvement of the harbour and its facilities for trade, tho committee found that oaving regard to the very limited powers, of the /"Omirnssion, and atso to the manner in which it is instituted, it could not suggest any practical ieme bused upon the lines suggested.—The leport was received.

LIBERAL MEETING AT MGKMST /N. THE WELSH SUSPENSORY BILL. FAILURE OF THE CHURCH IN WALES. A great meeting in support of the Welsh Sus- pensory Bill was held on Tuesday evening at the Tabernacle Chapel, Morriston, where the principal speaker was Mr Fisher, the well- known secretary of the Liberation Society. Mr William Williams, J.P., presided, and he was supported by Councillor Freeman, J.P., Mr IT. Clement, Dr Gabe. the Revs Emlyn Jones, J. Dyfodwg Davies, J. -Matthews, R. O. Hughes, Owen (Ciydach), R. Roberts, Edwards, T. Davies, Lindon Partridge, and W. Jones. The CHAIRMAN, who on rising was loudly applauded, said he did not see why Church clergymen should have a vested interest in their national property more than the many estimable Nonconformist ministers he saw around him, most of whom had done more for religion than any Church of England clergyman. (Cheers.) Mr Williams then explained that Mr Randeli, M.P., was unable to be present because of the necessity for him to watch the interests of his constituents in Westminster. The same applied to Mr Lloyd George, M.P. The Rev EMLYN JONES proposed— That this meeting hails with satisfaction and grati- tude tho introduction of the Suspensory Bill by Mr Gladstone and his Government, in whom vre have the fullest confidence, and that we accept this Bill as au earnest of their determination to brinjr forward as soon as possible a satIfactorv measure for tho Disestablish- ment and Disendowment of the Church of Engiand in Wales. He expressed his deep sympathy with the resolu- tion and his delight. at being allowed to propose it. Alluding to the work Mr Fisher had done in the cause of Disestablishment, he said that he had been able to enlist in his work tliip Bishop of St. Asaph— (laughter)—only the two had gone to work in different ways. The virulence of the bishop had so assisted in arous- ing Nonconformists that to-day they were united and enthusiastic in demanding the complete disestablishment of the Church ot England in Wales. (Cheers.) The rev gentleman condemned the action of the Church people in sending round petitions to be signed, all asked why they did not call a public meeting? Because they knew the verdict would have been different from what they wanted. There werestatpmen s in thepetitions which were absurd and absolutely false, and yet this was being done in tho name of a Christian Church and for a Christian religion. He did not hesitate to say that a Church which condescended to adopt such questionable tactics deserved to be disestablished that n ght. (Cheers.) The Church people could get up petitions how they liked, but the Nonconformists had completed their petition. (Cheers.) »They presented it last July, when 129,724 electors voted for Liberal candidates pledged to the hilt in favour of Disestablishment —(cheers)—in other words, 31 out of 33 members, by a majority of 60,000 votes. (Cheers.) Mr CLEMENT seconded, and said though he would have wished to have seen a Disestablish- ment Bill introduced at once, in view of the pressing claims of Ireland, and the obstruction of the party who arrogate to themselves the title of the upholders of law and ord-,r, this could not be expected immediately. In introducing the Sus- pensory Bill, Mr Gladstone was following prece- dent, and as the introduction of a like measure was followed by Disestablishment in Ireland, so it would be m respect to Wales. In the course of his remarks he said if he were a Churchman he should be positively ashamed to admit that his Church could not exist without State aid. (Cheers.) Mr J. FISHER, who was received with enthu- siasm, spoke in support. He denied that the Suspensory Bill would affect a single man who held an office in ths Church. The Bill simply said that after its passage, if men were appointed to office, they must distinctly understand, if they accepted them, tney did it on the condition that thep were to receive no compensation when Dis- endowment came about. He showed the neces- sity for the Bill by the fact that during the 17 months which elapsed between the introduction and the passage of the Irish Bill the number of curates in the Irish Church was increased from 476 to 900 and so people who, in view of compensation, had been appointed a few days before the Bill was passed sent in claims for compensation, and some obtained it). (" Shame.") So far from the measure being unduly oppressive it was too indulgent;. It possessed somo weak points. It did not affect patronage, and so patrons could still receive compensation. It did not affect carates, though that class was the one with respect to which it especially should, because they could not unduly multiply vicars, but they could curates, as he had shown with respect to Ireland. Therefore it would be necessary to amend the Bill on these two points when the Bill went into Committee. (Cheers;)' Mr Fisher proceeded to refer to t ie failure of the Church in Wales, It has not even provided sufficient worshipping accommodation for the people. Were all the Nonconformist chapels burnt would the churches accommodate one-half of the worsl)ipl)t-rs? No. Yet, if all the churches were burnt the chapels would find roonl ioc all the worshippers, and have thousands of sittings to spare. Then the Church had failed to fill the small accommodation it had provided. (Cheers.) The failure of the Church in Wales was seen in the marvellous progress of Dis- sent. Tho Church had also failed to produce peace and harmony in the nation. In concluding, he said the Welsh NolcLI)fc)rri, -a would win. He would not say they would gtt the Suspensory Bill at 6nce, for they had to deai with the House of Lords. He could not promise them Disestablishment immediately for the same reason but with the sledge hammer of public opinion they would get this great act of justice, and how soon they could get it would depend on the activity and energy they displayed. (Cheers.) In removing the Test Acts and getting Church rates abolished, they had stormed the outworks. They were now in the citadel, and if the Welsh people would only stand by their members it would not be long be- fore the citadel would itself be taken, and all people be placed on terms of religious equality so far as the law is concerned. (Cheers.) The Rev R. ROBHRTS. who supported the motion in the vernacular, said the Welsh nation had been quiet for a long time, but the season had approached when the trumpet should sound and a battle commence, which for them would soon be crowned with victory. The Rev W. O. JONES having also spoken, The Rev JAMES MATTHKWS, Fabian's Bay, fol- lowed, and criticised Cation Smith's recent sermon on the Suspensory BDI, saying he took a text and did not say a word about it. The canon started by sayingparty politics ought not to be dis- cussed in God's house, and then ho started right off to speak politics. (La ghter.) Did the canon forget when Mr Gladstone attended Sketty Church, and lie went there i and preached party politics at him from the pulpit? (Cheers.) For if that sermon were not a political sermon, a political sermon waa never delivered. (Cheers.) Canon Sm Ithadmittedthat but forNonconformists Wales would have been in heathen darkness. Then why should the people of Wales bo com- pelled to subscribe hundreds of thousands a year towards a Church which had admittedly so neglected its charge 1 (Cheers.) Fear of Popery did not wake up the Church, nor did fear of Nonconformity, but the fear of Disendowment had frightened th.) Church into fits. (Laughter.) If the fear ot Disendowment had so waked up the Church, what might they not expect when they got the real thing ? (Cheers,) The resolution was then carried with enthusiasm. On the motion of the Rev J. EDWARDS, seconded by Mr RICHARD HUGHES, the speak"rs were thanked, and on the motion of Mr FL*HEK, second3d by the Rev T. DAVIES, the chairman received a similar compliment.

FOOTBALL. I' THE BRADFORD AND NEWPORT CLUBS. A Bradford correspondent writes :—I under- stand the Bradford Club's attempt to arrange a fixture with the Newport Club for Easter Tues- day, to take the place of the discarded game with the Barbarians, has not succeeded, th.i Welsh champions not having the time: at liberty for such a journey to Yorkshire. Fixtures will, however, in all probability be arranged between the clubs next season on the home and home principle, in lieu of the cancelled fixtures with Blackheath. These dates are the last Saturdays in October and February respectively. Newport have the first date open, and they have promised to alter another fixture arranged for February in order to fit in with the Bradford vacant date. CARDIFF v PONTYPRIDD. Grent interest is evinced throughout the Rhondda in this match, which takes place at Cardiff to-day. The Pontypridd team have r.ow falrlv eariied the title of champions of the Rhondda, and so far have had a most successful season, having, out of 31 matches played, won 21, drawn 6, and lost 4, and scoring 25 goals and 52 tries to their opponents' 3 goals and 11 tries,or 264- points to 42. They have suffered defeat at the hands of Cardiff by a try t.) iii), by Neat II by a goal to a try, and twice by Llanelly by a dropped goal to nil, and by 2 tries to nil, but on the latter occasion their team was far from a representative one. They have since turned the tables on Neath by 2 tries to nil, and th^ir supporters are confident they will make a, good fight with CarditL Pontn- pridd- Back, W. Gay three quarters, B.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SWANSEA. ALLKGEH THEFT OF GINGER WINK.—At the police-court, on Tuesday, John Moigan, a spelter man, was chargtd with stealing a decanter of ginger wine, worth Is, from the bar of the Santh's Arms Inn. Foxhole. The wine having been missed, defendant was charged, and said, '"Don't say anything about it I'll give it back." Defendant, who was given a good character, was told by the Stipendiary that the only reason. he could assign was that he had taken more drink than was good for him. He was fined 20s. ALLKGKD BKKACI-I OF THM SUNDAY-CLOSING A Merrals, landlord of the General Picton Inn, King-street, was summoned for com- mitting a breach of the Sunday-Closing Act on the 5th inst.—Mr Smith defended.—The police gave evidence as to visits paid to the house, and to subsequently demanding admittance, when they were kept outside three minutes.. Then they found four men in the kitchen. In defence, it was urged that the men entered the house on ba"ine5E', and that the delay in opening the door was due to the defendant being unpre-entable. No drink was supplied, The men corroborated, and said tti.-y were all invited guests of the land lord.—The Bench, after a retirement, decided to adjourn the case for a week in order that the landl- ady might be called.

NEW YORK PRICES, IRECTKR'S TELEGRAM.] NEW YORK, Tuesday.—Money Market has been animated Sterling Exchange fairly steady. Stocks ruled irregular during the early part of the session. Whiskey Trust was higher at the opening, but the market became heavy in the afternoon owing chiefly to a break in the Sugar Trust from l034 to 75%, due to heavy sales for inside account. Coal stocks broke also on sales, due to agents reducing the prices of coal 10 to 60 cents, per ton the entire list acted in sympathy, and the market closed weak. Cotton gave way generally throughout, and closed weak spot remains easy, and fa lower. Cotton seed oil has been dull, and nominally weak choice summer yellow, 56s winter yellow, 64-s. Petroleum-refined dull, at nominal rates. Lard has ruled weaker, in sympathy with Chicago. Wheat advanced awhile, then re-acted on sales, but recovered somewhat later, closing steady spot dull and weak. Flour dull and weak, at five points decline. Corn improved during early dealings, but re-acted, and closed dull spot opened weaker, but closed firm. Sugar steady, at yesterday s quotations. Coffee has declined all day with few re-actions, and olosed spot easy. Tin in good request, closing strong at 5 cents improvement. Iron quiet, but steady. Copper steady, but trading nominal.

AINTICIPATIO-NS. Backers had by no means the best of the deals at Derby to-day, and this too in spite of the somewhat small fields. The programme was cut down to six events, owing to the Elvaston Steeplechase being declared void, and only one of the half dozen events fell to a favourite. That was in the case of Fetlar for the Doveridge Hurdle Race. Ldy Helen disposed of her Grand National chance by succumbing to Marechal Niel, and Fetlar and Oxton both improved on their recent displays, and moved up the all-important step from second to first. Oxton on less favourable teloms as regards weight reversed the Hurst Park placings with Carlo in decisive fashion. During the afternoon Gangway and Tanzineister were both in brisk demand for the Lincolnshire Handicap, while Lady Helen was down to outside rates for the Oxton both improved on their recent displays, and moved up the all-important step from second to first. Oxton 011 less favourable tewns as regards weight reversed the Hurst Park placings with Carlo in decisive fashion.

LONDON BETTING. TUESDAY NIGHT. The principal plsvees of sporting resort were again well attended, and in anticipation of results of trials, business was brisk. The favourites were quiet, though firm, for the Lincoln Handicap, but when news arrivod that Gangway had beaten Prince Hampton in a gallop, this candidate watt freely supported down to 100 to 6. Tanzmister found a backer at 20 to 1, 1800 to lOa, and 500 to 30, but some doubts were expressed its to whether the money for this son of Saraband had gone into tha. right quarter. Orontes and Friar John each retired to 33 to 1, which figure was taken latu in the day about. Victor VN ild, who from 50 to 1 was backed to win a good stalce, i f. er it had been rumoured that he was the best of the Arundel quartette. In the genuine quarter that has throughout supported Pensioner, 2 to 1 to £ 350 was bo; 1 that he obtained a ploce. For the Grand National 900 to 20 was noted to Cloister, and 8 to 1 to Why Not. was in demand at 33 to 1, taken and wanted. For the Guineas 500 to 30 went down to Milford, as did 2,0 O to 80 to Tournesol for the Derby. There was no betting on the boat race, as 3 to 1 is now vainly offered on Oxford.

General von Kodolitsch has secured first claim on Freo Barrett's services for the coming racing season in Austiia. Wolf's Crag (siys Warren Hill in the Sporting Life) won his trial very easily, and will about win the Lincolnshire Handicap. Victoria. has won the Challenge Cup presented by Lord Sheffield for the champions at inter- colonial cricket in Australia. The lightly-weightvd Cheroot is fancied by his connections lor the Grand National, but he is a very hght timbered horse for such a tiring journey. It is reported that Fitzsimmons narrowly escaped being poisoned in the rinsr on Wednesday night, through his brother's carelessness in pour- ing ammonia 1l1to his tea rlnrmg the first round. Fortunately, Fifxsiinmons did not drink the tea. The team taken over to Holland by Harwich and Parkeston to play Rotterdam under Associa- tion rules proved far too strong for the Dutch- men, scoring five times in the first half and thrice after change of ends, and running out winners by eight goals to love. Bill of Portland, the three-year-old colt by SFC Sirron out of Electric Light, broke away from hie rider at Newmarket on Saturday, and made for) his home at Exning. He was followed by Mr H. Clarke, the well-known gamekeeper, who, at per- sonal risk, caught the horse just as he had entered a paddock containing some brood marcs, the pro- perty of Mr J. V. Lawrence. He was led home to his stable unhurt. The Austrian Government introduced a Bill in the Reichsrath on Saturday imposing a. tax on betting bookmakers. If the measure passes these gentlemen will in future have to pay 5 per on the amount of all bets. AU bets under 100 florins will be counted as that nUTI. Thn new imposts wLJI be in addition to the income-tax and licence duty the bookmakers already have to pay. Several penalties are fixed on attempts to evade the new tax, winch is as heavy as that levied on totalizator betting. Sid Thomas, who once more won the Ten Miles Championship at Birmingham on Satur- day, ha3 long be,ill one of the foremost long- ciistanct, runners in the country. While pursuing his education at St. Mark's College, Thomas, who was born at Chelsea in 1869, soon gave proof of his remarkable staying powers. Although the champion is more at horns on the cinder-path, especially of late years, he has distinguished him- self by several brilliaut performances o'er field and fallow, winning the Southern Championship twice, and running a good second to Parry in the National at Keuipton Park four years ago.

Good government/ declares a Chinese maxim, "is simply a maintenance of tho natural relations which ought to exist between iri.m and man—a combination of princely conduci. in the ruler, loyalty in the subject, paternal lovo in the parent, and lihai piety in the child." [

WELSH UNION OF WOMEN'S LIBERAL ASSOCIATIONS. RECEPTION AT SWANSEA. The proceedings in connection with the visit of the Welsh Union of Women's Liberal Associations to Swansea commenced on Tuesday evening, when the delegates attended a reception held by Mr and Mrs Frank Cory Yeo, of Sketty Hall, at the Liberal Club. There were present about eighty ladies, representing various associations through- out the district, amongst them being Countess Alice Kearney, Mrs Masingberd, Mrs Hugh Price Lti-hes, Mrs Eva McLaren Mrs Wynford Philippe the Hon. Mrs Stanhope, Mrs Heid, Miss Jenkins (Llangadock), Mrs Glanffrwd Thomas, Miss Wynne Thomas, Mrs M. B. Williams, Brock, Mrs F. A. Yeo, &c. In addition to the delegates there were also present the leading members of the Management Com- mittee of the Liberal Ciub, and many of the ladies and gentlemen who have kindly consented to entertain the delegates during their stay in the town. The Club has been elaborately decorated for the occasion, the work having been entrusted to Messrs n. Evans and Company. In welcoming the delegates, Mr YEO said that it seemed to hun that the conference of the Union Welsh Associations was an event of much significance It was the first gathering of its kind, and the presence there of so many ladies showed that- it was not a union merely in name, but a living and active reality, which might be relied upon to do much good political work. Their meetings, in his opinion, afforded further evidence of that zeal, earnestness and energy which had for sorre time past characterised the \V omen s Liberal Associa- tions of this country, and showed clearly that there was a growing determination amongst ladies not to stand still, but to go forward alonsr the path of political usefulness, aud make their power and influence felt throughout the land. (Cheers.) He offered thein the most cordial welcome to Swan- sea, and wished that their deliberations would be attended with success and that they would con- tinue to prosper, and that their efforts on behalf of political righteousness would lead to a large amount of good. (Cheers.) An exceedingly mtere«ting programme of vocal and instrumental music was afterwards gone through. through.
